ICream Cafe – Mesa

Best Chocolate with Nutella and butterfingers mix in ice cream I have ever tasted. Definitely recommend.

Very good. Fresh cream, add mix ins like pistachio and berries and then they mix. Then the excitement. Nitrogen freezes it all and very tasty ice cream. We went back the next night.

They can pretty much make any kind of flavor you can think of. It’s cute how the fog covers the pot and magically icecream appears. The poster in front of the store said it was one of the best 25 icecream places in the USA. I personally prefer the consistency of gelato. I would say this is a good place to bring a date since it is a memorable experience. I personally wouldn’t go back.

Love this place and the atmosphere. Workers are really friendly and the ice cream is amazing

Stopped by as I was curious on ice cream created via liquid nitrogen. I have went to stores like this previously and it didn’t taste good.
I chose Green Tea and the flavor was subtle but tasty. It was very entertaining seeing how the ice cream is created. Honestly the only complaint I have about this place was the price. I picked up a small and they literally shaved the ice cream off the top of the cup to make it level. Being that stingy wasn’t very welcoming and the price was expensive.
Overall, I would return but probably go up in size to get more for the money.

Very cool! Not only a novelty, but is a nice science lesson for the kids, while enjoying a yummy ice cream. I like the sugar free options, and the variety of mix-​ins. Very cool!!!

I like this place because of gives me the option of getting a delicious dessert that I can eat on my low carb diet. I can get any sugar free flavor, with coconut or almond milk, a mix in and voila– a healthy ice cream alternative I can do without breaking my diet. A little pricier than cold stone though… The N2o is the coolest thing to watch though. And the customer service was great. Kids will love this place.

Fun, geeky way to get your ice cream fix. Custom make any flavor ice cream you want and watch it get hit with the liquid nitrogen in front of you, which is fun. But, I am a Gelato lover, the ice cream was somewhat soft, custard — like for me and the flavor needed a little boost, may just be what I tried. 1 scoop is $ 3.99 & tax, if you want nuts, add 49 cents! So $ 4.84… pricey for a scoop and no cone! This and 1 in TX are the only locations. The staff was friendly and informative.

This place has so many flavor combinations, and they create all the ice cream fresh and right before your eyes with liquid nitrogen! It is pretty awesome to watch. Best ice cream I have ever had and I LOVE how you can get it organic if you want!

I found out about these guys from an ice cream social at The Brass Tap and loved everything they made! I have been dying to stop in and try their regular flavors. I wish I would have done so sooner because it was amazing! It was so neat to watch them make up my own particular creation. I can’t wait to go back for more.

This place is legit. The staff has been really nice and professional.
They give you a good selection of treats, ice cream/​yogurt/​sorbet/​shakes/​pudding. There are flavors you pick to have mixed with the base and mixins. The first time I came I had butter pecan with pecans mixed in, it was really pure and not artificial flavored. The hubs got coffee and I really liked his too. It didn’t have that heavy coffee texture like other ones I have had before had. It was like frozen milky coffee, ended up stealing a few spoons of his. 2 of my sons got blackberry frozen yogurt with whipped cream and chocolate with oreos. Everyone was happy and shared. I like all the ones we picked out.
Today I brought the man child (my oldest), he got mint. I decided to try it and it reminded me of those butter mints which I love… Thank you Icream for helping me enjoy fresh mint ice cream. I decided to try mango coconut ice cream with no mixins and boy am I glad I did. The flavor is subtle but refreshing. I am a fan of this place!
Oh, be sure to get the Five Star card or app, you get discounts from participating eateries. I got a buy one get one free discount for Icream that I used tonight. :-)

Definitely something for everyone! So many options in terms of favors, toppings, ice cream/​frozen yogurt/​sorbet. And it’s delicious! Taste tested a potential fall flavor today, and I would go back just for that. Smooth and creamy and perfect for this heat!

It’s a very cool concept and the facility is pretty clean. The ice cream came out like butter and the texture is different but so yummy. I do have to say everything is on the sweet side so I’d probably go with the light option. The coconut has to be my favorite flavor!

Finally got to try this place out. With these 114+ days we been having, i was ready for something cool and refreshing.
The girl at the counter wasn’t very welcoming. It seemed like she didn’t want to be there and was annoyed it took us time to figure out what we wanted.
She saw us craning our necks to look up at the menu. Its a bit too high. She could have handed us the paper menu for easier viewing.
The owner was in deep convo with a couple the whole time I was there. I heard him offer them the membership card, which the girl never offered us.
On to the goodies. I ordered a small vanilla ice cream with pistachios and caramel. Unbeknown to me she rang me up a medium.
It was neat watching the process of it being made. It takes less than five minutes.
I thought the caramel would be blended into the ice cream but it was poured on top. That’s ok, no biggy.
The vanilla flavor was a little lacking in flavor and had a slightly chewy texture. Having said that, it was good.
My daughter ordered Sorbet. Orange and pineapple. It was a tad sour but she still liked it.
I prefer the frozen yogurt places over this but that’s a personal taste.
Ice cream lovers and kids will love this place.

Delicious! I’ve been to other places that use liquid nitrogen but sometimes the ice cream can turn out too cold and ice crystals form leaving the consistency a little less desirable. That’s not the case at ICream! They certainly know what they are doing and whatever you decide to order the end result is a creamy and smooth treat!
There are tons of flavors to choose from like classics such as vanilla and chocolate to the more adventurous flavors like green tea or curry. Also, you have the option to pick an organic base or non-​dairy base and various different bases in-​between (fro-​yo or sorbet anyone?).
ICream gets an extra star because someone could totally snap a finger off if it got stuck in the nitrogen! I know they are well trained to make sure this does not happen but seriously… so the extra element of danger and suspense makes that much more exciting to watch.
Right now there are only 3 ICream locations in the United States and we are lucky to have one in AZ. So if you are looking for a fun and unique dessert, definitely give them a try!

tastes exactly like what it is: a last-​minute dessert made from a powdered mix, so who cares that they use liquid nitrogen to freeze it? If Jell-​O Instant Pudding is your idea of the finest dessert, then this place might be for you. If you actually have a discerning palate, you’ll recognize in the first taste just how utterly inferior this stuff is.
On top of which, it ain’t cheap: it’s at least two-​three times as expensive as premium ice creams like Ben & Jerry’s, and at least eight times as expensive as mid-​range brands.
And the whole thing of freezing each serving with liquid nitrogen takes quite a while and is really bad for the environment.
Don’t waste your time, money, or calories on this crap.

I absolutely love this place! We saw it on good morning Arizona (channel 3 news) a few months back when it first opened and I just had to try it out! We have now been there twice!
My husband and I have gotten different items each time so I have tried 4 different things! They are sooooo good!!!
The way that they make the ice cream is so fun no amazing to watch!
My favorite so far is the frozen yogurt! I got the strawberry cheese cake one (its on the wall) and by far the BEST frozen yogurt combo I’ve ever had!
I do have to say that I was tad disappointed in the hot pudding. I was looking forward to it (because I love it!) and I didn’t think it had much taste. I got the chocolate. Just ehhh. I will try the vanilla next time because I am hoping to love it as much as the frozen yogurt!
I will say that the girl who waited on us last time could have been a little more cheery but I’m not going to be too picky… It’s an ice cream place which equals happiness… Just saying :)
We live in Peoria and even though it’s far for us, it’s worth it! I have told so many people about this place, and will be going here many more times!

Make your own ice cream! Through the magic of liquid nitrogen, they can finely craft your custom ice cream for you in a short amount of time.
There are a plethora of flavors, sugar free options, and a «light» less caloric option. After browsing the menu for a bit, I decided on a sugar free pear/​green tea smoothie.
If you go for the sugar free option, you have your choice of faux sugars (Sweet and Low, Splenda, Equal, etc.) to blend with your ice cream.
The pear and green tea, while good flavors on their own, were probably not the best option to be mixed together in the smoothie. The smoothie itself had a grainy texture and was mixed with a very rich, full bodied cream which didn’t quite mesh with the light, delicate taste of the fruit and tea.
Service was good and if you get your order to enjoy at the store it’s cool to see the giant vat of nitrogen that they store all the liquid in. Overall, I’d like to come here again to try another custom concoction.

I’ve seen the liquid nitrogen instant ice cream gimmick before. Yes, it is cool to build a custom flavor and have it ready in a few minutes.
My wife and kids did that and the kids loved it. My wife said it was okay. They each had ice cream with one add-​in. I believe the chocolate flavor is sugar free — she said it was good for sugar free, but nothing special.
I went with the hot pudding option. I’ve never been to a place that steams pudding for you on-​demand. I picked ginger and peach with pecan topping. The pudding was thick and warm, just like making it from scratch at home (not the instant stuff from a box).
I was happy with my flavor combination was, although the pudding was very subtly flavored. I don’t know if that is a characteristic of the flavors I selected or inherent in the pudding option. I guess I’ll have to go back and find out. I don’t know of anywhere else with a «hot pudding» option.
It is a little pricey, but you get what you want — a custom creation — within minutes, and you’re probably not coming here every day, so it can be a nice treat.

WOW.
Fresh Ice Cream made in front of you is a concept I’ve never seen before.
I Cream café has an awesome selection of flavors and mix ins. Staff is neat and friendly and the environment is very family friendly. The difference between here and other ice cream parlors is that they create the ice cream in front of you. No it isn’t like cold stone or Baskin Robins where flavors are displayed and you can see what they have… NOPE! It’s actually mixed in and processed with Liquid Nitrogen, their ice cream is made from scratch each time.
I’ve had the sugar free coffee ice cream with a few mix ins and you can taste each and every item put on. Ice Cream is really smooth and each topping has a subtle taste added tot he flavor. Nothing was too weak or too strong that it either is tasteless or over powers another flavor.
Overall, If I’m in this side of town, I’d come here often. For me, it is worth the travel coming from Scottsdale just to hang out and have a bowl of ice cream.
