New to the Phoenix area (actually previously lived in Scottsdale and moved away for a few years and recently moved back). Any who, after an amazing home cooked meal I offered to go out and grab dessert for my wife and guest. This place is amazing! Not only are all the flavors of ice cream made fresh in store but the owner works the counter and is extremely nice. Essentially, I am normally a Coldstone guy but after the amazing service I got here I am more than happy to switch my ice cream parlor of choice. This place rocks, good food and great staff.

After driving past it for weeks, my fiance and I finally stopped in to try Scooptacular this week. The ice cream was fantastic. I had the Hazelnut Chocolate and my fiance ordered the Pomegranate Sorbet. The Hazelnut was perfect - creamy and not too sweet. It's so nice to find an ice cream shop with unique, hand-crafted flavors in the neighborhood. The ice cream was impressive, but I was even more impressed by the owners, who quickly responded when I had a minor customer service question. I will definitely be going back and urge everyone to support neighborhood gems like Scooptacular.

In March, I asked Nindi to make a 49er ice cream cake for my sons' 18th Birthday...it was amazing...I have never had ice cream as yummy as Scooptacular, and look forward to going as often as possible. By the way, the ice cream cake was a hit, and there wasn't much left after we cut into it! Thanks Nindi for making it a memorable and wonderful 18th Birthday!

Scooptacular has the best ice cream in Arizona. If youre in laveen, its definitely worth the stop. If youre not in laveen It is worth the drive to laveen to try some of their delicious ice cream. The store was also clean and the owners and staff are very friendly.
(5)Alicia S.
Yummy rich flavorful creamy and smooth. Cheaper than other chains and so worth the drive! My son and I tasted all the flavors and settled on the Playdoh. It is a colorful and fun vanilla tasting ice cream and it is incredibly good. So good, that I bought a pint. I will be back again and again.
(5)Chris L.
The lady working my order went above and beyond to create a German Chocolate ice cream for me even though they no longer had it! I tried the Concrete Laveen and the German Chocolate and they were both fantastic! I hope you ladies bring the German Chocolate one back soon!
(5)Michael B.
Tried this place when picking up my nephew from daycare. I was impressed right away. It is definitely a family friendly place, complete with little kids tables, fun colors on the walls and kids cartoons. Also, the prices are super good. There were a lot of flavors of ice cream to choose from, all of them home made. I was especially impressed with their "playdough" ice cream which is vanilla with a bunch of awesome colors. I ordered a cup of butter pecan which was delicious. A little bit on the sweet side, but one of the best I've ever tasted. I will definitely come back the next time I am in Arizona visiting family.
(5)Tiffany Y.
The ice cream deserves 5 stars alone. Even better, they have shave ice, friendly owners, managers, staff. And the best part they give back to the community, what's not to love!? --Much love from LA!
(5)Bri F.
i forgot to write the first time...... a single scoop here is awesome! you can get your single scoop in up to 4 small/mini scoops/flavors! it ends up being a pretty large portion! and you dont have to pick just one flavor :)
(5)Crystal B.
Amazing ice cream, amazing service! What's not to love!? The best ice cream I have ever had. I go there at least once a week. The place is clean and the staff is always courteous. Best ice cream in Phoenix AZ.
(5)Kate G.
We love this place! The owners are extremely nice and involved in the community, the staff is always friendly and helpful, and the ice cream is delicious!
(5)Anthony B.
Feeling ill? Scooptacular is your remedy, well, it was mine. Came down with the flu today. I decided that taking my little sis for some awesome ice cream would do me some good, and it did. She chose her current fave, Cookie Monster, and I took home a pint of strawberry cheesecake with cheesecake chunks ;) sure made me feel better. Lol. Awesome local ice cream combined with great service, you should go now :) enjoy.
(5)Theresa L.
We love scooptacular, they make the best ice cream around and everyone who works there is always smiling and friendly. You really can't say that about many places these days. We are moving to Chandler, but we may have to make the occasional drive back to Laveen just for ice cream! I tried the chocolate stout the other day, really different and good! If I could give them 6 stars I would!
(5)Brittany H.
My husband and I moved to the neighborhood last year and found this gem! It's pretty dangerous to live across the street fron this ice cream shop because it's THAT good! Good thing there's a gym within walking distance! We absolutely love this place. The staff is a group of great people that are always friendly and cheerful. We have not had a single bad thing to say about anyone or anything here. Cookie Monster is our favorite flavor. It's also awesome as a shake! Who knew that cotton candy flavored ice cream with chunks of cookie dough and brownies would be such an amazing flavor combination?! Don't knock it 'til you try it!! I have also tried the regular cookie dough, peanut butter cup, birthday cake, and the red velvet flavors -- all of them are delicious. My husband has tried Laveen's Concrete Mix and gives it rave reviews also. The waffle cones are ALWAYS fresh and the best I've ever had.
(5)Paula F.
I can't say enough good things about this place. My husband and I absolutely love Scooptacular. This local business has awesome ice cream. My personal favorites are Oatmeal Cookie and Laveen concrete, but really all their flavors are delicious. They are always coming up with new flavors. I recently purchased 2 birthday cakes from there, one was Rocky Road and the other was Oatmeal Cookie. Wow! The cakes were absolutely the best combination of cake and ice cream I have ever encountered, We have also purchased the Laveen concrete in a take-home gallon. When we purchased it we were told that we can have any of their flavors in a gallon, if we give them advance notice. They also told us that we can create our own flavors in a gallon, using their various toppings or bringing in our own. I also really love the fact that owners are local people who really give back to their community. I truly feel lucky to have this gem in my neighborhood.
(5)Becca A.
Dear Scooptacular Owner(s) & Staff, I highly appreciate your non-diary items like the melt in your mouth shaved ice (green apple rocks). I cannot forget the sherbet; it was just lovely. Thank you for the options. The staff was so friendly and welcoming. I think you should give them a bonus. The female with the red hair was so nice and approachable. I will definitely be back for more scoops. All-in-all great staff, and great product.
(5)Bree H.
Scooptacular really is spectacular! They have a great variety of ice creams all made in-house (Laveen Concrete Mix is my fave!!) The staff is very nice and friendly. They are quick to offer you a sample of any ice creams you would like to try. I am not sure how long this shop has been open, but I really hope they last. We go about once a week, which is all my butt can afford. Ironically we go after hiking on South Mountain, so I suppose it all cancels out. :) So, if you are ever in the Laveen Area, definitely make a stop at Scooptacular!! I saw a flyer there yesterday that said they also do Birthday Parties in the Shop where they show guests how to make ice cream. I suppose 33 is too old to have a Birthday Party there, so I will instead get one of their Ice Cream Birthday Cakes.... mmmm!
(5)Donnie E.
scooptacular is awesome!! if you want good icecream and want your moneys worth then go!!!!!
(5)Melanie C.
Just came back from my first visit to Scooptacular and I am in love! Finally, a great ice cream place just around the corner. The place was packed and all the employees were very friendly and helpful, encouraging us to try out all the flavors. I ended up going with the turtle and the red velvet, my sister had the cookie monster and my brother had the blueberry raspberry yogurt. All our favorites so far, but we will definitely be coming back to try new flavors soon.
(5)Holly B.
Nindi and Carissa are god-sends to Laveen. They are get community members and walking in to Scooptacular always makes me a little happier. Their birthday parties are great! My child got to create his own ice cream a few days before the party. He loved the personal affects they did for me.
(5)Brad W.
Must have sampled 6 different flavors before deciding on Smores. Crazy good with a huge thrash of graham cracker running through the chocolate ice cream. Plus entire mini marshmallows were also involved. One giant scoop for $3.25 on a sugar cone. Should have read previous review about combining flavors - lots to choose. Place is in a sketchy shopping center, felt like drive-through city. Rap music, shiny rims, tinted windows halfway down, but focus on the ice cream and you should survive the visit.
(5)Suzzi S.
All I can say is . . . BEST ICE CREAM EVER!!!!! All homemade flavors that range from simple such, as vanilla, to exotic, such as Lavender. Their Red Velvet is out of this world and their Oatmeal Cookie tastes like I just stole some batter from the bowl of dough. I was very impressed with each flavor that I was able to sample. Speaking of sampling, the staff is exceptionally friendly and courteous, always willing to let you sample all their favorites as well as anything that one day might become one of yours. I would and will be recommending this place all I know. If you are looking for OUTSTANDING ice cream, this is ONLY place to go.
(5)Jace R.
Wow. Like a lot. We drove here from Mesa because of the Yelp reviews and it being featured in the Yelp email, and let me say that it was well worth the drive! My partner thought i was nuts driving all the way to Laveen for ice cream, but after our experience here even she admitted I did good! The owner was there and spent a good 20 minutes getting us to try pretty much every flavour they had. I nearly had a meltdown trying to pick what I wanted. The salted caramel was a perfect blend of sweet and salty, the German chocolate cake was amazing, the red velvet was the next best thing to having the real thing. The sorbet was refreshing and not too sweet. I ended up opting for the Cookie Monster, because it's blue and cotton candy flavoured, and I have a strange affinity for both. My partner went for the strawberry cheesecake and it was just about perfect. By checking in with Yelp we got free upgrades to a waffle cone, and mine was still warm!!! The owner was extremely personable and answered all our questions. He ran back and forth, getting us samples of the flavours they had in the back. He explained why they use Illinois milk instead of Arizona milk (it's interesting... ask him about it!). We sat outside, ate our ice cream and watched as a large group went in... to make their own ice cream! What a perfect, unique date, or something to do for a kid's birthday party. I will happily make the trek up there anytime for this homemade ice cream with some of the most unique flavours I've had!
(5)Cory S.
Awesome ice cream place near my house. They always have different flavors every time I go. Oatmeal cookie is one of the most popular kinds they have! Highly suggest Scooptacular!! Served us even though it was minutes from closing and let us sample as many as we wanted.
(5)Reed B.
You can't beat the Red Velvet!
(5)Sahara D.

(4)Mark F.
All around good family owned business!
(5)Jessica D.
Love going to Scooptacular!! Great Christian music and clean and one of the best staff!!!
(5)Derrick Z.
this place makes their own ice cream! and it tastes great too. i believe the owners are local too. each time we go the service is great. there is a tv and kid table and chairs available too. i enjoying going to cold stone but this place is right around the corner from where we live. i hope this place stays around!!!
(5)Jessica W.
After reading reviews, we decided to trek out this way just for a celebratory dessert outing. I've gotten sick of the frozen yogurt places so a real ice cream shop was on my mind. This place was amazing. They had like 16 flavors, all made there. Super fun flavors, which we tried most of. The sweet girl gave us as many samples as we wanted, didnt seem at all put off. Cookie monster, grasshopper, playdough, laveen concrete, and cake mix was our flavors of choice. We didnt think it was that expensive at all, compared to other cold stone or maggie moo's. It's worth the trip. Go try it!
(5)Taylor H.
My boyfriend and I decided to treat ourselves from our low carb diet and go to Scooptacular. Let's just say it was well worth it! The place is nicely decorated and new looking (I'm not sure how long this place has been here, as we are new to the area). The owner was very helpful and gave/offered us as many samples as we wanted. We were really impressed by their selection of flavors. They have all the classics, along with some creative and different concoctions. I went with two classic choices--- cookies and cream and chocolate, while my boyfriend opted for the cookie monster and reese's peanut butter cup. Every ice cream we tried was absolutely delicious. You can tell that they are passionate about making high-quality, delicious ice cream. It's nice since there are so many chains out there. It's also good to support a well-run, original local business. I also wanted to say that the owner let us use the Yelp check-in offer (one free waffle cone), even though the coupon expired over a month ago. We will definitely be back, although not as much as I would like in the near future, since I need to drop about 30 pounds.
(5)Nhung H.
This place is awesome [: We went here yesterday because my friends and I have been on an ice cream kick lately and plus my friends live in Laveen and he said this place is really good so we wanted to try. The staffs are very friendly, they keep offering us samples which is nice cause they have a lot of flavours. They even had a ham flavour but I didn't try because erms... well yeah. Pricing isn't too expensive imo. Oh and their cones are awesome! I like how its thin and crunchy so it doesnt have the stale-ness taste when you eat. It reminds me of Abbott's Frozen Custard, a place back where I grew up so that was awesome [: Definitely recommend this place!
(5)Rachel R.
I honestly love Scooptacular! I have been here I don't know how many times (let's just say I've cashed in on many 'free' ice creams with the punch cards!) Their ice cream is great - and that's coming from a Wisconsin girl (I mean I know my ice cream!) Was I bit irked that they don't use AZ milk? Yes. BUT - without a doubt - if I'm paying for 'premium' ice cream and AZ milk doesn't make it taste the best - then please use IL milk! The owners are sweet, sincere, and generous. Scooptacular recently had their one year anniversary and raised money to set up a scholarship fund for their employees. All their employees are polite and helpful. (It doesn't hurt that we're 'regulars'!) My favorites: a tie between chocolate overload and oatmeal cookie. I used to love the Laveen Concrete, but my tastes have changed. My husband loves the Grasshopper (mint with girl scout thin mints)...if you ask, they *might* still have some in the back. ;-) My children love the cookie monster, cotton candy (it's purple), bubblegum and their new favorite: orange creamsicle. Oh, I forgot to mention - we bought an ice cream cake for my daughters recent birthday from Scooptacular. We choose mint chocolate chip and chocolate for the layers with a fudgey middle layer. It was SOOO GOOD! Also, they have hot dog ice cream. You have to respect someone who is clearly so dedicated to their craft to make meaty ice cream!
(5)Sophia C.
Scooptacular has home made ice cream and is soo delish! They have a lot of flavors and have some yummy seasonal flavors too. I love their pumpkin cheesecake / pumpkin pie during the holidays. Their cookie monster is amazing! They have cupcakes and ice cream cakes as well. Definitely recommend this place. They do a lot for the community which makes them a better local ice cream shop!
(5)Veronica V.
My family absolutely love this place! If it weren't for us trying to eat healthier we'd probably be there 3 or 4 times a week. First off, the place is very kid friendly. There are little kids tables and a plasma on the wall playing kids movies. A much appreciated convenience if you have little ones like we do. The prices are awesome, for a kids cone just a $1.29. We used to go to water-n-ice shops. NO MORE. What an amazing couple who started this shop so very friendly. Thanks for selling icecream at my kids school (also a smart way to advertise) otherwise we might not have ever tried this spot. My favorite is Chocolate Overload!
(5)Amy L.
This place is a must stop and taste kind of place. Everyone is always so nice. This place in my opinion is better than coldstone and 31 flavors combined. They have ice cream that make you remember your childhood. They also have ice cream that makes you feel like a kid again. I started out loving the Greman chocolate Cake and let me tell you that it taste just like it. Then I went to the orange dream. Remember back in the day they have the orange popsicle and the vanilla ice cream in the middle. This taste just the same. Now I am in love with the salted Caramel. Oh so very good. My partner has always been a fan of the oatmeal cookie. Best thing is during the holidays they have weird flavors. Like on 4th of July they have hot dog and Fathers Day they had beer. They make it all there and the staff gets to create flavors too. Man you can even put your 2 cents in.
(5)Rachael P.
Yes, we live in Laveen and 1. We are DESPERATE for some decent cuisine over here 2. HELP 3. WHY? 4. HELP. Anyway, I am not giving this place 5 stars because of any of the above. if I was back in Orange County, oh sorry, the Oooo See, I would do the same thing. And, we even have Thrifty Ice Cream there. I mean, let's be real. The only real ace in the hold for Thrifty is that darn coveted chocolate malted crunch that seems impossible for anyone to recreate. Scooptacular, however, has many many flavors that are great, and, maybe one day, they'll find a way to rival the chocolate malted crunch icon. The interior is adorable, with a cotton candy style color palette. There's even a Disney movie usually playing and some pretty decent seating. I was leveling off some of my ice cream, getting a bit greedy about getting down to my favorite part, the rim of the sugar cone meets the melted treat, yum. The manager came by & said oh is everything ok? & I said oh yes, I just have TOO much ice cream & I want my cone! if that's the worst complaint, well there you go. I really hope everyone goes out & supports what is probably one of the best non-chain (ok let's be honest that's pretty much all we freaking have, APPLEBEE'S, ICK) places around.
(5)Kenny W.
The Veen has a great ice cream shop! The reason this is big news is that there really is not anything out in The Veen food wise that is great so having a great ice cream shop is a real coup. Scooptacular (Scoop) has all of the stand byes for ice cream choices but also has some great off the beaten path flavors as well. My favorite is the oatmeal cookie. It is a vanilla base ice cream with some carmel, cookie crumbles, and a few ingredients I can't quite make out. Scoop also has the typical waffle bowls and cones made on the premises. Their shakes are not that special but the ice cream choices makes up for that short coming. Something really cool that Scoop does is that you can rent out the place for birthday parties and the kids get to make their own ice cream. it is actually a service that is reasonably priced. If you like good ice cream and you are tired of the Cold Stone prices associated with it check out Scoop.
(4)Kerstin M.
When my husband wanted to veer into Cold Stone the other day, I felt my nose wrinkle, and the words "Nah, let's go to Scooptacular later" came out of my mouth. That's when I knew that this adorable new store had me as a repeat customer. The owner is as sweet as her ice cream and all of the employees have been friendly and patient. You can try as many flavors as you'd like, and believe me, you'll want to try them all. Oatmeal Cookie has become our favorite, but I also loved the German Chocolate, and the Red Velvet with its ribbons of frosting (very rich). All the ice cream is super premium, and is served in very generous scoops. I usually have to pass my two-scoop cone on to my husband to finish, especially if I get anything with chocolate in it. I would say the prices are equivalent to getting a pint of Haagen Dazs but the quality is even better, being freshly made. And supporting an awesome local business tastes pretty good, too. I once asked the owner if the store was a chain, because it looked so much better and "put together" than many independent places. It is bright, super clean, and a word I seldom use: cheery. The menu is large and easy to read and navigate. Obviously, a lot of thought and care went into this store. It shows. I would encourage the downtown foodies to come to Laveen just to have Scooptacular's ice cream. I'll bet you'll turn your backs on Cold Stone, too.
(5)Kim B.
L-O-V-E this place. My friend and I walked with her two daughters over to Scooptacular for a well-deserved treat. Oatmeal cookie dough? Yes, please. They had a cute little stool set up so the girls could see the flavors-- and we were able to sit right next to the kids table. The only regret I have about this place is getting a single scoop as opposed to 4 or 5 scoops....! Just sayin'.
(5)Crystal G.
It was Saturday night we had just got done eating at a pretty bad restaurant and we wanted some really good ice cream to wash the flavor away. We looked on yelp and saw this place. It was a bit far from where we were for ice cream, but we decided to try it anyway. 20 miles later we had arrived, the place was small but inviting. The lady who help us was really nice, she let us try any sample we wanted and answered any question we had on the flavors. I couldn't decide what I wanted so I got a vanilla waffle cone and my boyfriend tried their red velvet waffle cone. They were both great! The waffle cone was so delicious, it was the best part! It also had an awesome gooey suprise at the end of the cone, it was a marshmallow that had soaked up the ice cream and tasted so good. This place was defiantly worth the drive.
(4)Debbie B.
Great family I owned, all ice cream made ob sight and the staff is polite, friendly and makes you feel very welcome. ...what a concept! Lol. More establishments could learn from them!
(5)Jennifer R.
I wasn't the ice cream lover in my family - far from it. Scooptacular has changed that. Fantastic service, lots of smiles and an incredible treat for the whole family. Bonus: This is a locally owned business. Can't decide which flavor to choose? No problem! They offer free samples. Warning though, that will likely make your decision even more difficult. Oatmeal Cookie, Red Velvet, Butter Pecan, Strawberry Cheesecake...yum!. My children adore the Cookie Monster and Birthday Cake flavors. Turtle is my favorite...for now...
(5)Frank E.
This place is great. I'm surprised I've not reviewed it prior. I discovered it shortly after moving out here 2 1/2 years ago (shortly after they opened actually). This has been nothing but the best ice cream shop I've ever been to. Top notch. The staff and the product. The owners are nice as can be. The staff is always great and eager to help out. The product. Spectacular. They will let you try pretty much anything. The ice cream is creamy and the taste is dead on. The sorbet is made fresh daily and you can tell.....tasty, smooth...don't really know how to describe a sorbet that just seems perfect, but they have it. Their freshly made waffle bowls, made daily, are tasty also. Oh..and it gets better. Their "single scoop" can be divided into 2 smaller scoops or 4 mini-scoops. This place is the best. We've gone through more than a few free cones using their punch cards. They also make shakes, smoothies, and ice cream cakes. They sell all their flavors by the pint or quart. The lady and I will continue to be loyal customers.
(5)Rob S.
I've been here twice, and both times I had a really good experience. Not only do they have awesome, store-made, one of a kind flavors, but they are patient and offer samples until you find the one you like. Great, kid-friendly environment too. Thumbs way up!!
(5)dorina s.
I was so excited to know that we were going to have an ice cream place open up in Laveen!! The owners and staff are ALWAYS so friendly and have smiling faces!! The ice cream is homemade and there are so many neat and different flavors. Oatmeal cookie is my absolute favorite!! Being a brand new business (opened less than a month ago) and staff who are young enough to be my kids (AND probably being their first job ever) are doing a FABULOUS job with making Scooptacular a success!!! KEEP UP THE AWESOME ICE CREAM & AWESOME CUSTOMER SERVICE!! WE LOVE SCOOPTACULAR IN LAVEEN!!! :-)
(5)Amanda S.
What everyone else has said thus far is true! This place is only about 5 minutes from my house, the owner is sweet as can be, her staff are awesome, and she said, "Try everything!" This place is very affordable, has great portions, and VERY yummy waffle cones. If you live out here - or even if you don't - try it!
(5)Mollie P.
I would like to take the opportunity to thank Scooptacular for contacting me and making an effort to rectify the situation. I haven't try it again but I will in the future. They have make a few changes and I was pleasantly surprised. Thanks Again Scooptacular.
(3)Ahwatukee M.
We love Scooptacular in Laveen! I can't get enough of the Cookie Monster icecream and my husband loves the Soy vanilla - nice alternative. I send him over there at least a couple times per week to pick us up a yummy treat. We like the little tables and movies playing for the kiddos too. Even though my son doesn't like icecream, he enjoys going over there! You know you are a fan of Scooptacular when over half of your spoons in the drawer are pink or blue!
(5)R O.
Seriously addictive. So yummy and really nice staff.
(5)Mr R.
Not bad. Friendly service but just a tad pricey for the product. Not much to say. Had better in the big City, but for the Phoenix area, this is probably as good as it gets.
(4)Lisa R.
Best ice cream place I've ever been to. I showed up about a minute before closing. They greeted me with smiles and weren't at all put out that I was keeping them open past closing. They offered me several samples and were ready with suggestions. Everything is homemade and tastes so good! It's not too rich either. They even have bubblegum flavor without the gum chunks in it...much better that way. They have new flavors coming out all the time so you'll never get bored. Excellent customer service!! Worth all five stars. I'm very impressed.
(5)Jen B.
Best handmade ice cream ever! Also, fantastic local business with friendly family atmosphere. I love Scooptacular!
(5)Annie C.
This is a nice little ice cream shop. I like the ice cream and it's always nice to support a small business in my community. I like the rocky road and recently tried the "laveen concrete" flavor. Both were yummy! My boyfriend loves the cookie monster flavor. They also have shaved ice there but I haven't tried it yet. The staff is friendly and they have a cute little area set up for kids.
(4)JT B.
They have awesomely flavored ice creams. But that's not even the best part about this place. It's always clean and cheerful inside the store. The workers are kind and friendly and it comes from a genuine satisfaction and pride they have from working there. My family loves going to Scooptacular because we always have fun there. There was never a time that we were disappointed at all. I would not be surprised when my daughter becomes an adult and looks back at fond memories of her childhood, Scooptacular would be definitely be a part of it.
(5)john k.
Love this place! Unique flavors, very low prices and a great place to take the kids!
(5)Natalia M.
What a gem in laveen! Friendly staff and fabulous ice cream! German chocolate cake is my husbands favorite
(5)Everardo K.
Don't get me wrong I like frozen yogurt and mix-in ice cream but sometimes ya just want some good ole ice cream and nothing more or less. They have several homemade flavors to choose from and I recommend you try the Cookie Monster
(5)Heather S.
Their ice cream is delicious and they have a ton of flavors. The best part though is that they have shaved ice! You don't have to wait for the fair to be in town!
(4)Shawn R.
Who loves Ice Cream? Who loves local? Who loves nice people? Well get on over to Scooptacular!!
(5)Matt M.
Excellent ice cream, good place to take little ones. Staff remembered us on our second visit. Hope to be back soon and try some other flavors
(5)H K.
I really like scooptacular. Nice friendly staff, cool kid friendly atmosphere, and delicious ice cream! I especially appreciate all the thank you cards hanging around from places that Scooptacular has donated their treats. I love the Laveen Concrete Mix ice cream!
(4)Sophie D.
This is great ice cream that is made in the store by the owners and their friendly staff. They have a ton of special flavors and they let you try anything you want! They really want you to be happy with what you order. The price is right in line with what you would expect. Cheaper and better than Cold Stone, and if nothing else they have a friendly staff that always smiles. I have been going there since the day they opened and have been returning weekly ever since. For those of you who say it is too expensive or you don't get as much ice cream as you "think" you should, shut up and go to McDonalds and get their 99c vanilla cone and enjoy the taste of nothingness. Not me. I want delicious flavor in hand scooped ice cream. This ice cream is CHEAP people. Try it..... you won't be disappointed!
(5)Anna Marie G.
I only had a chance to visit this place at the Grand Opening of the City Scape center downtown Phoenix last Thursday, but they served up some tasty treats!!! I never in my life have ever tried Cotton Candy ice cream (and growing up i lived next door to a family that made and sold Cotton Candy daily) Not only was it nostalgic, but it tasted exactly like Cotton Candy!!! They also gave me 2 samples of the Vanilla Ice Cream and it has vanilla specs in it. (even though Vanilla Ice Cream in the states was ruined thanks to my having tried it curb side in Guadalupe, Antigua- fresh from the Vanilla bean and Ice from the cooler) there's was very tasty! I would recommend this shop for all those on the west side (kinda weird that they would partake in a Grand Opening of the City Space in Downtown=but I reaped the rewards!!!!) Hopefully they will be opening up in the City Scape. I would be in heaven if they did ^_~
(4)Scott D.
Scooptacular just blew my mind with there amazing strawberry cheesecake ice cream. While I was eating it felt like I was flying on a unicorn through a candy forest. I highly recommend this ice cream establishment.
(5)Jessica W.
I love Scooptacular! The ice cream is always fresh and delicious. What I love even more is how much the Village of Laveen supports this place. On Labor Day Sunday night, the line was through the stanchions and almost back to the door!! What a wonderful sight to see. The kid's tables with kid sized chairs is such a fun touch. My 4 y/o loves that part almost as much as she loves the vanilla bean ice cream!

This 100th review is just like all before it. This ice cream place is amazing. They are constantly making the best quality products and give back to our community. Happy 100th review!

The ice cream is amazing! The Butter Pecan is some of the best we've ever had! Our other favorites are Pistachio and Coconut Almond. The German Chocolate is a wonderful choice when available. If you go early enough make sure you ask if they have the homemade waffle cones available. They are delicious! We've enjoyed everything we've tried and love that they offer pints, quarts and gallons.

Ok. I have to say that at first sight, I was not excited that I couldn't "make" my own mix-ins. I really was hoping to pick my ice cream flavor and add my mix-ins. This is more of a traditional ice cream store model. However, after scanning the flavors - and realizing it was hot outside and I went there because of this anyway - I decided to buy a pint and take it home to try it out. First - a great option is you can choose two and do a "half and half" pint. This is great to try flavors, and not only that, you get two flavors in one pint! So I chose the Reese's peanut butter and the Chocolate Overload (chocolate base ice cream with fudge brownies, chocolate crunch and fudge). Holy cow! I was impressed by both. The peanut butter was extremely flavorful and the ice cream rich. The Chocolate Overload - the chocolate flavor was intense, the brownies were soft and the chocolate crunch was a pleasant surprise as opposed to chocolate chips - more like a crunch bar. All delicious. The next time I tried the mint variety with Girl Scout thin mints in it. While this was still delicious - I have to say I liked the other two better. Felt like the mint could be a little stronger - or even better, more natural mint. Either way, not a bad option as well. I would definitely go back here. So far, I have not been disappointed!

Love their flavors and their community involvement. They also always have the nicest staff working and are always willing to offer you a nibble decide if it's the flavor you want. We are lucky to have them in our community.

Fun little ice cream shop! We were in the mood for some ice cream in the West Valley and Yelp'd for the best option. Made our way to Scooptacular and ended up having a fun ice cream run. Was even impressed that the prices aren't killer. The shop is kid-friendly and they have a mix of custom flavors that turn you indecisive. You almost want a triple scoop to avoid missing a delicious flavor that will haunt you later. And the review that said the waffle cones are perfect for eating with the ice cream nailed it. Definitely worth repeat visits and it appears there are families that make this shop a routine tradition. The staff is very friendly and knew other visitors, some by name. And from the items on the walls, the shop owners try hard to be good corporate citizens and give back to the community. Tip: They do have a loyalty card!

We absolutely love this place! The ice cream is amazing! Their standard flavors are spot on. I personally love the chocolate chip cookie dough because they use whole chocolate chips and the ice cream tastes like the butter/brown sugar cream base off a cookie dough recipe (not just plain vanilla with cookie dough). Try the Cookie Monster flavor, the blue color threw me off, but cotton candy ice cream never tasted so good!Prices are good too, especially for the portion, quality, and supporting a local family owned business.

The place looks a little run down and needs new paint but the ice cream is very good. We drove 30 minutes to try this place. It was worth it. There were customers coming in til the second they closed.
(5)Trina G.
I don't get ice cream very often, but when I do I don't go anywhere else but here! So yummy and not expensive! HIGHLY recommend you check it out :)
(5)Megan S.
Just made my first trip to Scooptacular. I asked for a two scoop bowl. I indicated that for my first scoop, I'd like mint chip ice cream. The girl behind the counter told me that she thought they might be out of mint chip ice cream, and made me wait while she went to check in the back. Sure enough, she came back empty handed. Since they were out of that, I asked instead for both of my scoops to be of the concrete flavor. Turns out, they were out of that too. I'm not sure how they operate when they don't carry all of their flavors on a daily basis.

What a great place to take your family for some ice cream. My children absolutely love this place. A wide variety of flavors to choose from, and they all taste great. I'll definitely be back.
(5)Carlos N.
The wait time to finally get served much more than I anticipated. Now I understand I did come in on a Friday night but a 10 to 15min wait definitely not what I expected. Only 2 girls running the place when there should have been at least 3. I got the Oreo Cheesecake which was pretty awesome but not something you gotta have. I did try my wife's butter pecan and immediately regretted my decision. Probably the best I've ever tasted. I was looking forward to getting a waffle cone like I typically would. After looking at the check in promo of free waffle cone upgrade, I have to admit I got excited. Too bad they had run out! Finally, might have to come back for the butter pecan.
(3)Lindsey W.
we LOVE their oatmeal raisin ice cream. They make their own ice cream and it is amazing. So happy to have this little ice cream shop in the neighborhood. The kids love their playdough ice cream. they always have new flavors so we go often for a quick treat.
(5)Morgan S.
I am normally not on that side of town, but we found this place just a short distance from where we were, they have really good ice cream (German chocolate was my favorite) wish we had one on the East side! I'm glad we stopped in here.
(4)Darrell C.
Stopped in last night. The place was really busy but the line went pretty quickly. The size of the scoops were pretty good. Just not sure if its worth the price they charge. But that's just my opinion. A family of four could expect to spend over $20.00 for an outing here for dessert which may not sound like a lot but for ice cream?. If you don't mind the prices I definitely recommend this place. The ice cream did have good flavor. I really have no reason to not give it 5 stars based on the atmosphere and the quality of the ice cream. The staff was very friendly and offered samples of any of the ice creams I wanted to sample. I'll definitely be back at some point.
(5)Paul B.
Great ice cream shop that is just that. Simple and the shop is tailored for kids, but is game for everyone. Try the play-dough ice cream. It is my daughter and I's favorite.
(5)Doug S.
Great ice cream. In addition to making the ice cream locally they make and create their own flavors and use a local dairy for their milk. So, double bonus, you get great tasting ice cream and everything is locally owned and made.

Updated Review: After leaving my review, the business owner contacted me and was very sad to hear about my negative experience. He asked that I please come try Scooptacular one more time and said that he appreciated my feedback, even if it was negative. I really respect this in a business owner!! It's so nice to see an owner take feedback from these reviews and use it to make his business better. We went yesterday and the ice cream was much better this time!! Mix-ins were found throughout the ice cream and I liked it! I had Manners, Please and my husband had the German chocolate cake. The person behind the counter was very nice and offered to let us sample some ice cream flavors before we chose one. Original Review: I've been there twice because I always like to give a restaurant a second chance. I won't be going a third time. My first time I ordered cookie dough ice cream, there was NO cookie dough in it. Just vanilla ice cream. The second time, I got their "special" expecting it to be much better since it was a featured ice cream. No such luck! Sparse mix ins and ice crystals like it had melted and been re-frozen.

Great customer service & passion about their ice cream seeing that is what really mattered to me - it's one thing to see someone who is just there staring off into deep space vs someone who is knowledgeful of what they serve & the details about it. On top of that I loved the friendly-ness of the staff & how patient they were for my group trying out various flavors, I wouldn't hesitate to come again when i'm nearby, cookie monster is where it's at
(5)Kevin H.
Kids love the place. Decent selection of flavors.
(4)Bianca M.
My son and I absolutely love coming here for a nice treat. The staff is always so friendly and they are often busy but seem to get to you in a timely manner. I like and appreciate that they are a locally owned business and they make their own ice cream there. They often change a few of their flavors to match with the season. I have a hard time Getting my son to leave because of their kid movie area. We enjoy our weekly visit and I'm sure we will be a life long customer.
(5)Gissel R.
Decided to stop by here and it was totally worth it!! So different than other ice cream places. I am from Las Vegas and I just wish they had a location there. I am definitely coming back before I go back home. They have so many different flavors with creative names. I had the play dough and it was pretty delicious. Now to the staff- Colby was awesome! He was so sweet and so enthusiastic about everything. He answered all our questions about the different flavors and gave us a little background on the owner. He definitely made the experience 10x better!
(5)Jaclyn C.
The place is cute, but I was not to impressed. I ordered the cookie dough one, and litterally only had one chunk of cookie dough. I was bummbed. May try them again if there is a coupon. They were a little pricey for the poor quality.
(2)Jade W.
Another great experience at Scooptacular. Got one scoop with half Pumpkin King and half Cookie Monster. Both flavors were delicious. The employees were friendly as always! Enjoyed our ice cream on a bench out front so my dogs could join us.
(5)Ja'Crispy F.
Amazing! I'm a big fan of pistachio ice cream. This place by far has the best I've had in my life! I got a double scoop in a waffle cone, which was more like three scoops! There must have been an entire bag of WHOLE pistachios in my scoops! I've never had pistachio ice cream with whole pistachios. The waffle cone was really good, a bit porous letting the melting ice cream ooze out, but I knew that meant it was hand made! I didn't mind the mess at all. People complaining about the staff need to calm down a bit. It's mostly high school students, so I'm not sure how much personality to expect. The person who served me seemed to be the owner, super nice guy. Even asked me and my family how our day was going so far. The only reason our wait was long was due to the large Spanish speaking family whose orders were being translated by a 9 year old girl who isn't old enough to understand others are waiting. I didn't care, gave us more time to view all the flavors. Maybe, my tiny gripe is the ingredients aren't listed for the flavors. But, read a few other yelp reviews before going, and you'll figure the flavors out. Or better yet, go to their website before going. Glad we found this place and will be back soon!
(4)Danielle S.
Always always so nice and pleasant! Even though I always get the same thing, cookie monster, they never mind letting me sample their latest flavor. They have crazy seasonal flavors like turkey and ham if you're feeling brave. I love that they are alway thinking outside of the box. They also have characters their every once in a while. Stopping in and running into Elsa from Frozen was a pleasant surprise. My family will without a doubt continue to support this locale Laveen business.
(5)Koni G.
LOVE LOVE LOVE THE SCOOP!!! Best ice cream in the valley! Just reading the reviews makes me want to run over and get another treat! Wonderful shakes, the shaved ice is to die for, but my fave is the waffle cone loaded with Laveen Concrete...wait, no Cookies & Cream...no..Pecan Praline....It's all delicious! Best business in the Laveen community - wonderful family and great place to hang out with friends.
(5)Marianne M.
I have been here a few times and have never been disappointed. Had the pumpkin, in October, and the mint and chip. Both were amazing and I will continue to visit when I am getting my ice cream fix. Definitely is worth the trip.
(5)April B.
This is a locally owned business that treats you like family. There is a cute place for kids to sit down and watch the latest kids movie while they eat their ice cream. Its nice for the family to go. Its nice for my husband and I to catch up with each other, while the kids watch the movie and eat there treats.
(5)Elizabeth Pasaret P.
Great Ice cream! We love coming in here! Cookie Monster is a family favorite! This place has great prices, friendly faces, and it is totally kid friendly! Love it!

Worth the drive- No one makes ice cream like this anymore. It's truly hand crafted and made from premium ingredients, you can taste the quality and superiority of their milk, cream, flavorings, etc. Scooptacular is 100% responsible for these extra 10 lbs I put on in the first year I lived in Laveen. (Yes, that spoon DID jump right into my mouth!) Side note- there is an LA Fitness right across the street lol. I made it a mission to try each of their flavors one year and while I almost made it through the list, I couldn't fit into my jeans and had to slow down on the ice cream consumption. We have been going here for 3 years now and let me tell you, there is no ice cream that compares in the entire country. Cold Stone? You'll never slum it there again after trying Laveen's home grown old fashioned ice cream. Favorite flavors in this family include Red Velvet Cake, Mint Chocolate Chip, Oatmeal Cookie (one of my favorites and I don't even adore oatmeal cookies to begin with), Cookie Monster (yes, it's blue, but truly, it's worthy of a grown up's attention, trust me), Orange Creamsicle, and Salted Caramel. Butter Pecan and Birthday Cake are way better than other places as well. They will keep giving you samples cheerfully, so don't be shy to try at least 3-4 before settling on what you want. They also have punch cards where when you've indulged in an adequate number of gluttonous indulgences, you get one free. They also have great shaved ice. Get it Hawaiian style with cream added to it, it's delicious. Such a great product and friendly staff! They always have a DVD playing for the kids and while I don't have little ones, I still enjoy watching old favorites like The Incredibles or Cars 2. My only complaint is that I wish they stayed open until 11 on Friday and Saturday nights instead of 10.

Love supporting small local business. The owners are great and even when they aren't there the staff is awesome. The ice cream is amazing. If you're in Laveen you don't want to skip this spot!

Man, if I ever really thought about living in Laveen, this would be the only reason. I really have no issues driving 30 minutes to get spectacular ice cream. Too bad I live 50 minutes away. And spectacular ice cream is an understatement. They told me that several of their ice creams were seasonal and that the ice creams were made/mixed locally. I had the cookie monster ice cream. Who would've thought that cotton candy ice cream would be perfectly mixed to make me scream COOKIES! But it does and I think about it all the time. My wife wanted the carrot cake ice cream, and the server said it was amazing, but alas they were sold out and done for the season. It was like they were rubbing it in her face, which is funny because can an ice cream be so delectable? I think yes. Everything they let us try was great and if they're raving about the carrot cake ice cream (and they work there) then it has to be a no-brainer. She settled (I say settled like it was a bad thing) and she loved it. I want some right now.

Creamy, homemade goodness! Fantastical service and deliciousness all in one! As a first timer, I was given a brief rundown of the offerings! Sampled more than I should have...hehehe! I chose to go with the citrus cream cheese! This has to some of the best ice cream I've ever had. Very cream cheesy with bits of citrus zest throughout! The waffle cone (thanks Yelp!) is also homemade and VERY thin, which I love. I had a super thick and overpowering waffle cone. Very friendly, very clean, very good!
(5)Robert J.
Was looking forward to trying this place after reading the good reviews and about it being home made ice cream! Not impressed at à nd not affordable for a family! 2 waffle cones with 2 scoops of ice cream just sitting on top of each cone was $12.00!! Ice cream a just ok, nothing scooptacular about it!! Sorry! Also girl behind the counter had NO personality!
(2)Monique C.
Artisanal ice cream, friendly service, reasonable prices, flavors everyone can relate to and, best of all- the ice cream is served at the correct temperature. I am an ice cream fanatic and this place is WORLD CLASS!
(5)V. N.
Very good neighborhood Ice cream parlor. My daughter enjoys it! Sometimes very busy at peak times I guess, but always good friendly service. Yummy ice cream flavors to choose from. My fav has always been bubblegum.
(5)Nura A.
No wonder this has 5 star. Just the first bite, you can tell its really good. Really creamy, thick and tasty. Easily one of the best icecream I ever had. I'm so glad this is right here in Laveen. Inexpensive and nice service as well.

Scooptacular is a local, neighborgood icecream shop in Laveen that also aims to engage Laveen community (they offer scholarships to kids in area, too). On top of ice-cream, they also have some limited selection of cafe items such as cakes, cupcakes, froyo, etc. My friends got a $12 for $24 deal coupons and we came here for an early evening snacks pre dinner. Each of us tried variety of different icecreams and settled for 4 small cones/cups of variety of flavors such as Dark Chocolate Smores, Chocolate Covered Strawberry, Pistachio, Crayon Clay, etc. The taste was great and the people behind this ice-cream parlor were friendly and helpful! With people walking in and out of store constantly, I could tell Scooptacular was definitely one of the favorite establishments within this community. Parking is easy. The store is located in retail stripmall area, so you don't have to worry about it at all.

Just moved to Laveen, Nice little mom & pop shop. Staff could be more friendly. First time of course I wanted to sample some stuff I felt like it was a crime to ask to sample something. Chocolate covered strawberry ice cream was amazing. Major Plus they have Tropical Sno.

Bought some danzeisen milk here, wish your employees knew the differance between a quart and a half gallon, got charged for a half gallon but was given a quart. Never going back here again.
(1)Nancy R.
Best Ice Cream EVER! I absolutely love their Laveen Concrete flavor, not a good name for it but it's DELICIOUS! Their shaved ice is amazing too! AND Scooptacular does a lot for their local community. Great Ice Cream & Charitable business? What's not to love?

My girlfriend and I go here all the time! The ice cream is amazing and the staff is always very friendly
