    Horchata and Watermelon Aguas Frescas
    Dawn M.

    Friendly, inviting, and the best in town! Excited to see a paleta bar close by! Entering the store, the employees were friendly and was served quickly. I got the horchata and watermelon agua freshcas. Both were hits! Just the right amount of sweetness. I got a chance to test taste the Kahlúa and it tasted just like coffee! I'll have to get that next time. I'll be coming back to try the paletas!

    Love this place. Delicious and refreshing. Only drawback is that it comes out to almost $10 a person, so $50 for a family of 5. A little bit of a splurge But I'd rather pay a little more and have it be this good, than a little less and meh .

    I've been hearing about this place for a little while and we finally stopped in for a sweet treat! The concept was new to us and the associate explained the process and even let us try their new flavor! My son picked out the bubble gum and my husband and I went with the hazelnut crunch. Both were delicious and not overly sweet! We will definitely be back!

    YUM! Our group of 7 earned these Paletas! There is a 4-step process to create your Paleta and the employees are super helpful if you are confused. I ordered Hazelnut Crunch, dipped in Dark Chocolate, covered in Oreo crumbs and served with sliced bananas. BOMB. So many combinations to be created

    Mango paleta dipped in white chocolate and coconut, and coconut paleta dipped in chocolate with almonds. Taste like an Almond Joy. Yum

    Just found our new ice cream place! All natural, from scratch I've cream and natural juices. Soooo good.

    Love this place! You choose your flavor of bar, then dip, then toppings. The fruit cup with tajin and Chamoy was excellent, fruit was perfectly ripe and fresh! The employees were kind and open for any questions, made you feel very comfortable. Very clean, made 2 stops on our trip to Mesa.

    I love new mom and pop establishments like this one where there is lots of energy from the staff. When we walked in, we were greeted by an employee who offered to let us know how the ordering of their menu works to do each step of the process. in a nutshell, I would describe this as souped up gourmet Popsicles. My daughters both got the Oreo Paleta have to put in chocolate and Oreo toppings. They were delicious and a fun Friday night treat. This staff recommended their fresh made Horchata so we had to get one of those and OMG, it was to die for. We will definitely be back

    Paleta selection, my favorite...coffee

    WOW! Paletas...creamy - delicious - refreshing. Incredible selection of toppings including nuts and fruits. Superstar customer service! Menu includes paletas, fruit cups, Aquas Frescas.

    Wow did this place impress! Saw it by chance and thought I'd give it a try... they have both milk based or water based popsicles. Lots of options made with fresh fruits like mango, coconut, and strawberry to fun stuff like bubble gum and Oreo. Get them dipped in chocolate, candy toppings, or fruits if you're feeling fancy. They tasted very fresh and creamy! They have other stuff like agua frescas (fruit juices), street corn, and shakes. The employees (owners?) were also very friendly. We'll definitely be back to try some more flavors!

    I discovered this Paleta bar while searching for new food places on Yelp. It looked good, so I bookmarked the business to try out on my next trip to the area. Walked into the Paleta bar and there was nobody else, so I was able to really look at the different flavors. Picked my flavor paleta, then picked the dip, and topping. The person working behind the counter was very nice and helpful. The paleta was very good. I'll definitely be back to try another.

    They were making more of the missing ones, so you can still order them.
    Ileana S.

    This place is so good! Paletas are made fresh in-house everyday so they're all yummy. I had the coffee and my family all had the bubblegum. The paletas alone are so smooth and flavorful but you can add toppings also. Service was great, they explain everything if it's your first time and offer suggestions. We also got a creamy cantaloupe agua which was also very good and not too sweet. We will definitely be back to try the elote and the other paleta flavors.

    Leticia S.

    Paleta bar was very clean and staff was very friendly. I totally recommend coming here. The paletas are amazing, and I love how you can customize it to your liking!!

    We stumbled upon this place after a movie and decided to give it a shot. Will say that this is one of the best desserts I've EVER had. Im pretty sure the owner served us and she was seriously so kind and offered us samples. The place was pristinely clean. Truly blown away by this establishment.

They were offering free milkshakes to the first 100 participants and we were lucky enough to score one of those gifts! We decided to just take one and share it and decided on the Frozen Hot Chocolate, which is made with Blue Bell chocolate ice cream, hot cocoa mix, chocolate sauce, marshmallow fluff and a "kosher" marshmallow. I'm just not a big sugar fiend so I found the shake to be extremely sweet and gooey...wife loved it! I didn't try the marshmallow but she said it was good and she could tell it was homemade. We decided we would try the store in Gilbert at some point this summer to see what other goodies they offer. Overall, a good treat and thank you for the free goodie! Sorry, there was so much going on at the moment, I didn't take a photo of the actual milkshake!

Service was so good and friendly! I follow them on Tik Tok and the owner seems super cool and kind. I immediately wanted to support them when I saw her videos. I will be back for cupcakes next time and oh they have cookies and marshmallows and more!! Must try!!!!

I opted for the Ham and cheese croissant, and the sausage croissant. Both breading was fantastic. Good flavor, airy yet crispy, just really well made. I will definitely come back for the ham and cheese croissant. The sausage croissant wasn't really for me (the bread was) it truly is a big sausage in there. It had good flavor, just isn't for me. If they could make just a plain cheese or bacon and cheese that would hit the spot lol We also got their regular cinnamon roll. The breading had a lovely sweet cinnamon flavor and the icing on top had a delicious creamy taste without being overly sweet. The odd part for us was the filling in the inside. I couldn't decide if I cared for it or not, I was almost feeling it was pushing the sweetness over just a bit so l may or may not get that again. Even tho they have seating inside, it feels more like a grab and go. You can def enjoy your item there. But I wouldn't say a spot where you can sit and catch up with a Friend or read a book. It also felt a bit too warm and stuffy so cranking down the AC a bit would help it feel more inviting especially from coming outside from the Arizona heat. I like to enjoy a warm beverage with my dessert and I couldn't imagine doing it in there. We opted to eat in our car Service was friendly and patient. We arrived on a Saturday around 1130 am and their was plenty of items available Can't wait to come back

AZ Chimney Cakes specializes in Kürtöskalács, a.k.a chimney cakes, an incredible dessert that originated in Hungary. I have Romanian roots and Kürtöskalács are quite popular in Romania. That's where I had my first chimney cake. Located in the same shopping center as a movie theater, a Japanese restaurant, and a bunch of other businesses, I parked without any issues in the free back lot and walked over. Ambiance (4/5): A cozy dessert shop. I felt right at home when I saw a map of Bucharest by the entrance. You order at the counter and then they bring your order out to you. We sat at a table close to the door. Service (5/5): Friendly service and we were fortunate enough to chat with the owner for quite a bit. We learned about the history of the dessert spot and how they're trying out some new ideas. Nice lady. Drinks (N/A): No drinks for me on this visit. Food (5/5): If you've never has a chimney cake, you're in for a treat. They're made to order and customizable. More so than anywhere I've ever seen. You choose your base, toppings, additions, and drizzles. I went with the traditional chimney cake with Biscoff cookies, vanilla ice cream, and Nutella drizzle. Outside of the dessert options, which are the way to go for first timers, if you're feeling adventurous, they also have one or two savory options. The chimney cakes are served warm and absolutely delicious. They're filling too so come with an appetite. It's one of those things everyone should try at least once in their lifetime. So cool to have them in Mesa!
