Licks Ice Cream & Coffee 16130 North Oracle Road, Tucson, AZ 85739

"It is very difficult to find vegan ice cream in big cities, much less a small town. I have been working in the ice cream industry for the last two years and I have very high standards. I got the vegan vanilla ice cream (made with oat milk and soy milk) and it was fantastic! It was so light, fluffy, and very vanilla-y, paired very well with my fruity pebbles. It was a beautiful mix as well. I also tried the horchata, the tiramisu, and the jack sparrow. All three were incredible and tasted true to the real thing, especially the tiramisu! I have never had a tiramisu ice cream as delightful as this one. I highly recommend Licks!"

"Bubble waffles are amazing! They take the ice cream experience to a whole other level. I had the lemon poppy seed ice cream with a bubble waffle. It was delicious. This shop is the best I've ever been in. Best ice cream. Best people. It's a destination ice cream shop!"

"Fabulous and friendly ice cream shop! Tried the sweet potato casserole ice cream, so yummy, but ended up going with the chocolate cookie creation. My daughter went for the bubble waffle with grinch ice cream topped with crushed candy cane. Both were delicious."

"We stumbled upon Licks Ice Cream & Coffee after a friendly business owner recommended it to us. As we made our way through the charming courtyard, we discovered a happy place that immediately caught our attention. My husband and I indulged in two scoops of their rich and creamy ice cream, served on a crispy waffle cone. The flavors were absolutely delicious, and we couldn't help but feel uplifted by the cheerful and polite service staff. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, offering a perfect break from the scorching Tucson heat. Overall, Licks Ice Cream & Coffee left us with a memorable and delightful experience that we can't wait to relive."

"A friend recommended this place to me as a potential caterer for my wedding. We made the venture to go try their ice cream. It was way more north than I expected and a bit hard to find after the sun went down. I expressed that to one of the workers and they did let me know they’ve tried to put lights on their signs out near the road but people keep stealing them. I appreciated the fact that they recognize it’s hard location to spot if you don’t know exactly what you’re looking for. The worker was very kind in being patient with me while I asked questions about the menu. I sampled the Chai Tea Ice cream because it was such a peculiar flavor and It was delicious. I ended up choosing their signature cookie crumble ice cream and it was delicious. Overall, the atmosphere was so welcoming and I love the design of the interior. The employees were fantastic and the ice cream is delicious!"
