After venturing around the Napa Valley for some wine tasting, I decided to visit the historic town of Calistoga to satisfy my sweet tooth. What better way than to have some delicious ice cream? This takes me to "Mis Raices", one of just a couple ice cream shops in this neck of the woods. Located directly on Lincoln Ave (and adjacent to Washington St.) in downtown Calistoga, this place underwent modifications and came back with a new name/owner in March 2023. Previous to that, it was once known as "Cafe San Marco". I came here during the afternoon of Saturday 4/6/24 at around 4:30pm. One thing I will say is that this place is very small and not even any seating for no more than 2 customers. However, as small as it is, they have a lot to offer in terms of selection. Looking at the menu board, there is quite a bit in the way of Italian sodas (over 25 syrups) and even Red Bull fusion drinks to give you that added energy. As far as the ice cream goes, there was at least a dozen varieties. After narrowing down my choices, I decided to go with a small cup of their "Pineapple Coconut" for $5.00. I will say that the ice cream was absolutely delicious, refreshing, and very creamy. It was set at the perfect chilled temperature and for the value, it was a great deal. I also wanted to add that the service was above average while this place had a quaint and cozy vibe to it. Hours are generous as they are opened for business Thursday through Tuesday while only being closed on Wednesday (as of 2024). With that said and done, I am giving "Mis Raices" a perfect five-star rating.

Stopped by for some ice cream for kids. Ice cream and service was great! Recommend owner add sign facing outwards as was very hard to find from across the street.

Stopped in here to get the kids some ice cream after a day at the park. They both devoured their ice cream cones, my 4 year old said "daddy, this is the best ice cream ever!" Next time I'll have to try it as well! The service was awesome as well. And they have a little photo op area when you walk in!

My recent visits to Mis Racias Coffee and Ice Cream encouraged me to share my wonderful experience. This delightful ice cream and coffee haven is more than just a spot to quench your dessert cravings; it's a paradise for those who relish in the joy of ice cream and coffee! As I walked through the doors, friendly staff instantly welcomed me. Customer service is a cornerstone of their ethos. The staff's expertise shone as they offered thoughtful recommendations and answered queries with a genuine smile. Their patience with customers, including those who take a bit longer to decide, like myself, was commendable. The standout feature of Mis Racias is its vast selection of flavors. From timeless classics to innovative concoctions, each flavor celebrates its dedication to quality and ingenuity. The ice creams, rich and velvety, are a burst of true, robust flavors, showcasing the use of premium ingredients. I was also impressed by their variety of options catering to different dietary needs, ensuring everyone can enjoy their offerings. Another aspect that I should have noticed was the cleanliness and upkeep of the establishment. The space is tidy and hygienic and exudes a warm and inviting atmosphere that encourages you to stay a while. The attention to cleanliness, particularly important in current times, added an extra layer of reassurance. To summarize, Mis Racias Coffee and Ice Cream is a hidden treasure, offering an enjoyable experience with exceptional customer service, an extensive range of extraordinary flavors, and a spotless, welcoming setting. It's a destination for ice cream, coffee lovers, and anyone searching for a delightful treat. I highly recommend visiting this charming shop for pure joy and indulgence!

Great place to stop for an affogato on a warm evening. The service is good and the folks who run the place are super nice. Small inside but they have a bench outside to enjoy your treat.

Firstly, the glazed donuts are rather exquisite. Coffees are amazing (especially iced) can never go wrong with that. To be honest everything is quite amazing! I'm a regular customer there and every time I go I get greeted with a big smile and a positive attitude. Please go support this business, gets a 10/10 for me.
