Craving something sweet, but tired of the usual small ice cream shops? Then I would recommend The Sugar Bowl in Down Town Scottsdale. Step back in time into a pink ice cream parlor with a soda fountain and a huge menu full of ice cream treats. The Sugar Bowl offers pretty much anything that you can do with ice cream, including fantastic sparkling ice capades! In case you are wondering what a sparkling ice capade is, it's sherbert blended with sprite and the end result tastes like a push pop shake! The sugar bowl is almost always full of people, usually a blend of tourists and locals, but I have never had to wait to long to get a table. Also on the weekends they usually have a balloon artist walking around making whatever you please. I would recommend the balloon hats. So whether you are walking around the art galleries in Old Town Scottsdale or hitting up the nightlife for a fun detour try The Sugar Bowl!
