The toppings
Laura B.

So many flavors. Decisions! Decisions! DECISIONS! I chose the bubblegum for my grand kids. A pink and blue treat with a 1/2 dip of white chocolate topped with sprinkles and a drizzle more of white chocolate. I will surprise them after school today! Best Nana ever, I hope!

I will admit this was my first time trying a Paleta. It took me so long to decide as there were many many flavors to choose from! Luckily, they offer samples and I went with the birthday cake Paleta, half dipped in milk chocolate with cocoa pebbles. It was delicious! Next door to many food options and a brewery. Can't wait to try it again

gold bar Paleta con frutas
Destiny L.

I'll start with saying that the staff was very friendly at this location. Both of them were younger girls and they were very happy and overall I was very pleased with the service. I usually order a strawberries and cream paleta when I come but this time they had a gold bar option and I just had to try it. I got it with strawberries and a half dip in milk chocolate. The paleta it's self was fantastic. Probably a new favorite flavor. I really enjoyed the chunk of chocolate at the very end as well. Such a perfect combination of peanut butter and chocolate. My only suggestion would be the fruit was kind of gross. The strawberries tasted a little old and you could tell they weren't fresh. Especially because I'm pretty sure you pay extra for that add-on I was a little disappointed. Still a really great location and you can get food and a beer next door.

I felt like a kid in a candy story at this place. I had heard of paleta bars before but I never visited a store front until now. This location is located near the base of the Sandia hillside, so the view outside is gorgeous. The young man helping me was kind, offered plenty of suggestions, and laughed with me the entire time that I gawked over my order. My white chocolate dipped, oreo crumble covered, dark chocolate drizzled strawberry cream cheese paleta took me back too many years, with just the right amount of sweetness and entirely all the goodness. I can only speak for the paleta that I ordered because they have so many customizable flavors, but I know that The Paleta Bar will be seeing me again. This icy treat did not disappoint.

Lots of different ice cream or fruit bars. Dark Choc, Milk Choc and white chocolate to dip in half or full. Then 25 different toppings. They also serve fruit juices and mixed fruit cups

NM United (banana, cookies & cream, dark choc & chili dust) 1/2-dipped in dark choc, topped w/ pinon &pistachio and mango+strawberries!

I always love paletas and am a huge fan of this NM-based paleta bar chain. The ingredients are always fresh with a lot of selection..and the staff has been polite and welcoming across all locations I have been to. One day I found myself slightly early for my appointment, I dropped in this paleta bar location out of whim and tried the NM United paleta bar (banana, cookies & cream crumb, dark chocolate bits and chili powder. I had it half dipped in dark chocolate and coated with pinons and pistachios. The fruits that I picked (strawberries and mangoes) were fresh, too...and having it as a treat towards the end of the day...really made my day special! It's not just an icecream..but luxury dessert treat for myself for sure! Stop by if you have time. I like that this location has plenty of parking spots that they share within the plaza. And, frankly, you can go have your dinner at one of the spots in the plaza..then stop by this Paleta Bar location to cap off the night...that's a perfectly wonderful dinner in my book!

Amazing place definitely a visit for that sweet tooth cravings. I had the flavor of the day of acai with half chocolate mangos, strawberries and almonds. This was tasty but not something I would get all the time. I like to try new flavors and always recommend the Paleta bar to all my family and friends. Don't forget to get a fruit drink to pair or if you just need a refreshing drink on a hot day. My favorite it the blueberry lime. Great prices, friendly staff and clean environment.

Cookies and Cream Paletas with full dipped and Toppings
Beth C.

Paletas, a delicious treat for everyone! With so many paletas to choose from, and so many toppings to add...this spot is a lot of fun! My Daughter loved her cookies and cream Paleta with chocolate and sprinkles. The service was friendly and attentive. I chose the Taro with no toppings and it was so tasty. My Husband had the mango en fuego served with fresh watermelon, and a sweet/spicy sauce.

I'm addicted to The Paleta Bar. I've tried these and LOVED them: - blueberry cheesecake dipped in dark chocolate topped with pecans - Gold Bar dipped in dark chocolate topped with peanuts - Banana dipped in dark chocolate topped with oreos - Pecan dipped in dark chocolate topped with graham crackers

Clear signs for COVID

I've taken some time to really decide if I wanna doc a star from this AMAZING establishment. I la la la la LOVE The Paleta Ba. I tend to go to the one off San Pedro behind the Coronado Mall. Let me be clear: I would use the Paleta Bar for my wedding. This new location is BEAUTIFUL. It is clean. There are CLEAR rules to make sure COVID transmission is decreased. All the staff are wearing masks, gloves, and there are clear signs on the door and floor. The garb (clothing) section is cute. The huge Paleta decor is cute and lets you know what you're getting into. This was the first time I got a gallon of Aqua Fresca. YES! They sell by the gallon-- which is good because they use to have the yearly cups that you could refill at a discount, but due to COVID bringing cups into a store is not safe. So, this is a perfect middle-ground: and for $6-- HOOK ME UP!! The staff is kind. Knowledgeable. Patient. All while being professional. They helped me download the "Clover" app so that I could gather my points because I'm a frequent flyer. 10/10 this is an amazing spot!! However, there is a noticeable difference in the size of Paleta's here than I'm use to. Same price, but there is 1/4th of the normal Paleta missing. It is shaped like a "V" verses being the normal "u" shape. I don't know if they are using a different mold or if this is due to COVID and they needed to do something cost-efficient, but it's noticeable and for that I will probably continue to go to my trusted alternative location. This is where the star is docked. But not to leave on a bad note, I do want to disclose: I tired something different here. I did an avocado Paleta with 1/2 dip dark chocolate and piñon, and the bf got a Gold Bar with milk chocolate with piñon and they rocked!!! They literally put full on avocado in the Paleta. I'm not a fan of taking photos of food that I've bitten but you need to see this! Regardless of the bar being smaller, I do highly recommend The Paleta Bar!! If this is your store, you will not be let down!!!

no chocolate, bad strawberries

This ice cream spot deserves nothing else but 5 stars! What a wonderful place to try out smal batch…read morehome made ice cream from this shop! The owners/staff were so friendly and helpful. They even let me sample some flavors that I was deciding between as well. I meant..it was just so hard to decide which ones to get...since I only have limited spacec in my stomach..but so many more enticing flavors to choose from! I settled with a double scoop: a green chile pinon scoop and a cran (berry rose)mary scoop. Dang..the scoops were big and generous..and the taste were so wonderful! I especially loved the green chile pinon. It does have some spicy kick to it..but wow...so unique and I loved it so much that the next time I'm going to have this scoop and try another wonderful flavor! Lots of parking in the lot. The space was clean ans welcoming! I just cannot wait to stop by again. Even today..I debated whether I should stop by for the second day in a row..but..hey..I have to try to be good and not have lots of awesome icecream when my new year's resolution (which I will likely fail) is to have more self restraint on eating yummy food!

My favorite part was probably the house-made waffle cones, which come in a vanilla bean and blue corn variety. The store packs a lot of treats into a small space, and there is ample outside seating.
