“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. My daughter had salted caramel and a waffle cone. The Pearl location was a great compliment, too. We ate out on the green to watch the fountains and people doing their thing. A nice dessert!“

“Lick Honest Ice Creams is an easy five stars from me. The flavors are creative without being gimmicky, the texture is super creamy, and you can really taste the quality ingredients. Staff are friendly, happy to offer samples, and the shop has a relaxed, neighborhood feel. Prices are a bit higher than a standard scoop shop, but the quality and experience make it absolutely worth it.“

“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.“

“My husband and I walked in and this snack place is a very clean, cozy, quiet place. The paletas are homemade and so delicious! The flavor consistency is always immaculate every time I come, I’ve been 4 times and I decided I should leave a review now because of the amazing customer service. Brenda greeted us with a smile and quickly assisted. She was very knowledge about all the ice cream products and made my fruit cup exactly how I requested. THIS is true customer service that I wish every place had! I had a pleasant experience and will continue to bring my business here.“

“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.“

“First time visitors today after seeing Sammy’s ads on TikTok. My family loved it. We will definitely be back.“

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

“Rente un carrito de paletas para la fiesta de mi niño a un super precio y la verdad estan deliciosas, el carrito esta muy bonito, el lugar esta muy limpio y me atendieron de lo mejor! Super recomendado 💯“

“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.“

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

“I love coming here for all my snacks 🥰 10/10 🙈 disappointed that they stop serving items w cheese their last hour before closing tho :/ and sometimes the girls there don’t give their best customer service if u show up the last hour of closing :// they just stare u down the whole time. I get it yall are trying to go home but it’s still a whole hour till closing :// Besides that id still recommend coming here because the owners are so sweet and all the snacks are the best 🫶🏼“

“As soon as we walked in we’re were greeted, the owners are very polite and super friendly. Their Chilaquiles and Churros are to die for. Best churros I’ve had living in Texas so far. 100% recommend them for a good meal for breakfast or lunch. They serve Beer too!“

“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...“

“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“

“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“
