Sparky's Old Town Creamery is a small shop in downtown Tempe, offering a variety of ice creams and desserts. The shop has a mom-and-pop feel, with friendly staff and a wide range of options, including waffles, smoothies, and mix-in ice cream. Customers praise the quality of the ice cream, noting that it is good enough to enjoy on its own, with a superb texture that balances between soft serve and scoop ice cream. The shop operates like a Cold Stone, where customers can choose their ice cream flavors and add mix-ins, with the first mix-in included in the price. Prices are reasonable, and portions can be generous. The staff, including Malaeya, are friendly, helpful, and attentive to details such as toppings and cleanliness. Many customers appreciate the interesting and very tasty selection of flavors, along with the ability to customize their treats. Some reviews mention that they offer discounts to ASU students and alumni, and despite the busy atmosphere, the staff can accommodate large crowds with ease. The atmosphere is pleasant and low-key, making it a good spot to relax and enjoy ice cream. The ice cream is still delicious, with flavors like Batter in Bed and Banana Cream Pie, and many other flavors that are all tasty in their own ways. One customer shared that their mint ice cream was unlike any other, tasting strongly of fresh mint leaves, especially when paired with hot fudge for a perfect combination. Overall, Sparky's is a great place for a sweet treat with helpful staff and a variety of options.
