“I got the drunken ham sandwich with soup and chips, shake on the side. Boyfriend got a cheese and bulgogi with chips. We both loved it, everything was super delicious! We will definitely be coming back!! She was low on soup so she let me get an extra bag of chips, on top of that she was about to close and still served us❤️“

“Tried their ice cream for the first time tonight and 10/10 recommend! Amazing flavor and texture and the staff are great!“

“The Meadows isn’t just a place to grab frozen custard. It has become a real gathering spot for Helotes. Whether it’s after a ballgame, a family night out, or just a quick stop on a hot day, they always greet you with a smile. Their custard is always fresh and creamy, and the rotating flavors keep us coming back. The outdoor space is perfect for kids to run around while parents relax. What I love most is how involved they are in the community. From supporting local events to giving our families a place to slow down and connect, The Meadows has really become part of the fabric of Helotes. If you haven’t been, do yourself a favor and stop by. You’ll see why so many of us love it here.“

“Some unique and really good ice cream. I had Hill Country Honey & Vanilla Bean and Texas Sheet Cake, both of which lived up to expectations. One a little heavier, one a little lighter.

“Love this place! Ice cream like no other, truly. I am lactose intolerant, so I am so grateful they have Vegan Ice Cream. Today I had the sundae special for $8.99 and swapped out the default flavors with my vegan favorites. Vegan flavors today included Chocolate Chocolate (the best choice for chocolate lovers everywhere) & “No Egg Nog” which is a spicey cacophony that tastes like all the best parts of fall and Christmas. They also had a special 2 half pints for $12 so I got a half pint of each. Be sure to sign up for the rewards with your phone number & get your punch card! 😋“

“Lick is a good small ice cream shop in the RIM, however it has an extremely small amount of choices, most of which are abstract. While I enjoy a break from monotony, I feel that most may not find a flavor they have been craving or (if particularly picky) enjoy.“

“Great prices and friendly staff. Very very tasty!“

“Good experience. Ice cream had a high fat content so quite rich, different persons may find that better or worse. Was somewhat surprised that they had a fairly tight/small range of flavors for a specialty shop. Waffle cone was fresh but a bit cracked. Overall fine.“

“My favorite cookie place is Crumbl cookie“

“Fresh and yummy fruit cup, AND aqua fresca! BOMB!“

“Tenía mucho tiempo sin venir aqui pero con el caloron se antojo una agua fresca. La verdad así como me la saboreaba ya no. Compre coco con nuez y fresas con crema. Estan muy muy watered-down, no tienen ese sabor super delicioso que recuerdo. Estan muy rebajadas de sabor con el hielo pues pedi que no me le sirvieran con mucho hielo pero para esto me di cuenta que el agua fresca ya tiene el hielo mixto en el contenedor y no por separado. Hoy solo fui por el agua fresca pero no me agrado pero volveré a ire de nuevo para llevar a mis hijos por una nieve, pues recuerdo que sus nieves eran sabrosisimas mas la de gansito y mazapán! Espero no me lleve otro mala saboreo...“

“I really enjoyed the welcoming atmosphere we just finished playing in the water with our kids close by and as soon as we entered we were helped tasty and enjoyable thank you“

“Get an ice cream waffle cone they are huge!!! And just for 4.00
I was going to take a pic but this Asian reefer smoking older lady asked me for 2.00. Since it was 9pm and didn’t want to dig in my purse in the dark or have her be upset I offered her a palleta or an ice cream cone and of course she took my ice cream cone so didn’t get to taste it but going back to get another one to try. Just go earlier in the day before it gets dark - it’s safer if you can go before 7pm. Area is a little sketchy.“

“It’s the best place to go....every clean and safe....fun for everyone....the owner is awesome....keeps very thing so clean and safe ....this is the best place“

“Omg so good the 🍔 love my Chocolate Brownie Shake“

“over priced , burgers are small equal to MCDONALD'S in size.. also onions still had the outer layer hard to enjoy the small burger & a large drink is actually a medium in reality, the basket of fries where enough for 2 persons wich is fine !but for $ 30.80 never again.. staff was very friendly & tables where dirty...#foodcritic R.S.M“

“I wish there was a survey I could do for a specific employee bc she definitely deserves it. This is my 2nd trip to marble slab in the last three days after not going for over a year and I’m very happy I chose this location. Maggie assisted me both times, and even remembered part of my order this time around after dealing w what I’m sure are a lot of customers. She has excellent people skills and is extremely polite and friendly. I was having a horrible day, and thanks to her friendly demeanor, she turned my day around. If you read this, thank you so much Maggie; you made a significant difference in my day.“
