    First time coming here and I have to say I will come back for sure. I'm even thinking about changing my morning coffee place for Richie's instead. Awesome flavor on their coffee, size is also very generous. Price is another very important point for me when I go to a place and Richies has great prices cheap and without sacrificing a good quality on their drinks. Probably the best part is the great customer service, felt welcomed by the staff and they also took the time offer other products and drinks to try next time I visit. Thank you again for the great customer service and I will see you again soon.

    This was a most fantastic random stop. The prices are fantastic and the service was extremely personable. Very quick service. One of the few times I've shown up to a window service and the person working wasn't just standing there on their phone and acting annoyed that they had to do something. I had a cappuccino and the Familiar had the frozen ice. We were both more than pleased! You have to pop in here if you're out and about, you will not be sorry you did. Seriously, for the service and the quality you can't go wrong here.

    Was extremely happy we visited this spot. Small unassuming drive thru hut with some amazing flavors. Reminds me of Ralph's Italian Ices in NJ. Just fresh flavorful products. I did the peanut butter ice with chocolate ice cream gelati. Peanut butter ice was delicious and I would say it was closer to a cream ice. Daughter got the rainbow ice which had pieces of fruit in it . My wife got the citrus ice and it was well balanced not too sweet and not too acidic. A must try if you are in the area.

    I've been coming here for a while and I've NEVER been disappointed. I always get the ice cream since it's so good. My boyfriend doesn't really have a sweet tooth, but he LOVES the Italian ice here. He has enjoyed every flavor he's tried. The employees here always give amazing service and the owner is so great. It makes sense why they've been around for so long.

    Super nice staff. But I didn’t really enjoy the Italian ice. Kind of sour for me. I prefer Jeremiah’s.. because it’s not for me doesn’t mean it’s not for anyone else. Second time here. They do have real fruit inside or them. I got the Pineapple, Strawberry and mango. Mango was decent.

    Found this place while in traffic. Turned in and am so glad I did. Delicious cappuccinos and blended coffees. I added espresso to the coffee of course. Super nice people as well. I’m a Gulf Coast guy, so finding friendly places to go over here is super important. Support local.

    Refreshing and full of flavor. I recommend the watermelon and coconut flavors. The grape mixed with tangerine was really good too!

    Great place! Recommend it 100% would come back. They have long hours and their Italian ice is the smoothest ice and perfectly refreshing to have! Their flavors are awesome and they also have gelatis if you like to mix your ice with ice cream! They also have coffees for a pick me up. Go to the window or through the drive thru for amazing service from them.

    Nice little shop, love the drive up, it feels like an experience in its own, coffee is actually pretty decent here so skip Starbucks and support a local business. The ice cream was delicious, def a different taste, I’d say more watery than the creamy ice cream I’m used to but the taste was spot on. I’ll def be grabbing more in the future and updating this review.

    Wow, this place was phenomenal! It was recommended by someone I knew so I decided to make a stop after work later in the night and I’m SO glad I did. This is the best Italian ice I’ve ever had, the flavors are not artificial tasting at all, and my coconut even had small coconut shavings! Not too sweet and full of flavor! I had it with ice cream aka the gelati! And on top of that customer service was 10/10 the guy was so friendly and even let me try his favorite ices and I will deff be coming back to get his recommendations because they were delicious! A true gem of a place!

    The place to come for homemade and super fresh icee. They offer special flavors of the day and of course the favorite lemon 🍋. Make sure to grab a pretzel too. 🥨 Superb customer service. Drive thru and walk up and outside sitting available.

    I've found myself to becoming a regular here at Ritchies. Upon every visit, there are SO many flavors and they continue to surprise me each and ever time in the best way possible. The customer service is always great, as well. I would recommend Ritchies to everyone I know, for the best dessert in town!

    I love this place 🥰 I moved to Coral springs so I decided to try a Italian ice place up here and yuck 🤮 I got a cup full of iced sugar very artificial was not happy at all. I will definitely be making my trips down there to Richie's 😊 And a special shout-out to my favorite and friendly employee Kyle he's the best 👍

  • 5/5 Karen K. 1 year ago on Google
    Seriously...if you have never been here...it is a must visit for a cool refreshing treat! The Italian ice is amazing with many creative flavors. Also, a must try is the italian ice and soft serve ice cream combinations! And the cherry on the top...very affordable prices. Best deal in town!

    Love this little hidden gem! The cotton candy just the Ice is my favorite and my husband is the tangerine with icecream. Love the drive through option and late hours.

  • 4/5 Stacy D. 8 months ago on Google
    Liked their vanilla and chocolate ice creams. The location is convenient. However, people using the drive-through must be mindful of customers who want to leave. They can park and go speak with the owner if they wish and not block the driveway (one way out and it's through the drive-through).

    Eh..wasn't very good. They were out of most flavors. Settled for standard lemon. Was very chalky. Shack is pretty run down. Needs major face-lift and more care put into products and management.
