Mateo's Ice Cream and Fruit Bars

Photo cred: Yelp

With the heat wave that has hit the city there's never too many options for spots to cool off. This most recent find has incredible Mexican style fruit bars as well as ice cream, smoothies, and chocolate covered bananas. While the fruit pops come in many classic flavors (including some of the ice cream flavors), they also have flavors like horchata and cactus fruit, making it easy to mix things up add all the different ice cream flavors in and you have reason to go back over and over again. The staff is incredibly helpful and are more than willing to give you samples of all the different flavors. For a fun activity, strike a deal to split two pops and get one flavor you both know that you'll love and get another flavor that is a bit adventurous, this way there's no pressure if you're not a huge fan of the new flavor, you'll still get some of the classic one.
