The ice cream was good and the staff member that helped us was nice but this place was dirty. We heard 2 workers in the back talking in the back and who sounded like they were having a lot of fun (assuming not working) instead of cleaning up the main room and the outside dining place.

The ice-cream was amazing. I got a hot fudge sunday and it did not disappoint. Connor was very sweet and answered all our questions.

I never thought this bad of an ice cream shop could exist. Horrible selection! Didn't even have strawberry ice cream! The one flavor I sampled was disgusting! The lady working was by far better then the place she worked. She was also up front and honest about how Horrible and disgusting their product was and how cheap the owner was that he only buys frozen not fresh cream for their ice cream was why they were out of most of their selections. She was honest and tried to warn us while trying not to bad mouth her place of work too bad or anything but with product this bad she didn't have the heart to push it on the public! If the owner would put money into quality product and fresh cream this place could have been great but instead I left only purchasing the 1 I was treating my friend to and I decided to pass. Made me regret driving 10 mins out of my way and had to pay to park a block away to go here!

I wouldn’t come back. Very dirty and neglected. The ice cream display glass and counter were covered with streaks of melted ice cream, as if they hadn’t been cleaned in days. It was disgusting. The floor and the outdoor tables were also filthy — everything looked unkempt. This place has been in decline lately, and now it’s beyond dignity. Too bad, because it used to be a nice old Tempe spot.

Great ice cream. Had me a delicious root beer float. Can't go wrong. I went with a big party so I got to sample many flavors and they were all real good. The mint especially is like no other mint ice cream I've ever had, it's genuinely like eating mint leaves, in a good way! I was impressed. Service was good and they were friendly. Good place.

Emily and Kitty were amazing. We had delicious ice cream cones and a smoothie made to perfection. Super sweet!

In the past, Sparky's was once a Cold Stone Creamery. Even though it's Sparky's now, the ice cream is still delicious. I have been there many times, and it is convenient as I work within walking distance of Sparky's. Whenever I am walking along Mill Avenue and am craving some ice cream, Sparky's is one of my main stops in the area.
The ice cream is delicious. Some of my favorite flavors are Batter in Bed and Banana Cream Pie. However, I have had just about every flavor that they serve, and all of them are delicious in their own ways.
I like the pleasant atmosphere. Nice and low-key place where you can relax and enjoy your ice cream.
The general manager, Connor, is one of the nicest guys I have ever met. He is always a pleasure to talk to whenever I have some time for a friendly conversation during my lunch break at work. Every time I stop by, he ensures I feel welcome and right at home.
Another bonus is that they have a rewards program, which offers five dollars off once you accumulate enough points.
I recommend it to anyone in the Downtown Tempe area who is looking for a delicious ice cream treat.

Ew filthy. Crumbs everywhere, dried ice cream everywhere, ice cream flavors all mixed, and the employees were nowhere to be seen. Also this stuff is so expensive for a little cup of watered down melted ice cream. At least I got a free topping included 😭

I had a unique mint ice cream here, unlike the artificial mint taste usually in ice cream. This mint ice cream tasted strong of fresh mint leaves. Hot fudge over the top made for the perfect combo.
This place has tje most unique flovors of gourmet ice cream I have ever hesrd of. All ingredients are locally sourced and delivered fresh. You MUST try this place, now!

They have shaved ice not snow cones. So it will be ice chips not powder. Thier cherry is tart and not sweet in any way. Would not recommend.

Fantastic ice cream with a variety of flavors. They operate like a cold stone where you can choose your ice creams and add mix-ins to it. The first mix-in is included in the price. Their ice cream is good enough to have on its own! The staff was friendly and did a great job.
Does anyone know when Sparky's opens back up?
