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.

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.

Good enough

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.

Great little ice cream shop! Interesting (and very tasty) selection of flavors. They can do a good variety of mix-ins or put toppings on the ice cream. Friendly staff. Offered a discount to ASU students and alumni. Definitely go back here

I had some kind of salted caramel truffle, something or another, and it was absolutely out of this world
