This place is clean, professional and AWESOME! We were treated in a friendly, courteous and professional manner. The whole store was clean and looked gorgeous. Very well decorated. The menu had a good variety (even vegan options) and is moderately priced. Now on to the important thing, the desert and food. AMAZING!!! Nothing short of good! My family and I will be making regular trips there. I highly recommend this place. You can see their prices online and decide what you want before you even go. There was no line there and it wasnt crowded but if we keep talking about it (and we will) hopefully that will change. I dont give out many 5 starts but this place deserves it. Only 1 piece of advice I would give, since its shown that there are vegan options available, ask people if they want the vegan option when ordering. Im not vegan myself but I am pescatarian. I figured the chili would have been vegan chili but it wasnt. Thankfully my family eats meat so I didnt waste it. Still I realize this is my fault, not theirs and that is my responsibility to check. Still, it would be a courtesy if they did it.

This is one of my go to restaurants. Everything Ive tried here has been delicious. They make rolled ice cream in front of you. It is also a full scale self serve froyo shop.

We stopped in one evening for rolled ice cream and found out they also have some food items and fried desserts. The gentleman at the counter recommended the Philly cheese. We came back to try it and it did not disappoint. The fried Twinkies were awesome, cooked enough to have a little crunch but still gooey inside. I also recommend the banana split, this was really good also. The people were friendly and the prices are fair. Nice little store with modern decore inside. Nice and bright with some music playing. We will be back again.

Great service! Loved how they pay attention to detail and really take their time making these beautiful rolled ice cream. I got the MonkeyN Around. Highly recommended if youre around Sterling Heights. 🤙🌺 Mahalo! Was Onolicious!

Im glad my sister and I tried this place! We shared a bunch of the menu items that all tasted amazing: cheesesteak sandwich, tater tots, deep-fried Oreos, and tried out the make-your-own soft serve station- which charges by weight so you can make it as big or little as you want! There were maybe 8 choices of soft serve flavors, tons of mix ins & toppings, sauces, fresh fruits, and even those weird bubble-tea ball things. The most impressive (and important to me) part: the mix station was IMMACULATE. No cookies mixed in the chocolate chip container; the fruit looked fresh and appealing; tops to the containers for marshmallow fluff, syrup pumps, etc were not sticky or full of goop. If I could give them a 10, I would!

Awesome place! Its your typical frozen yogurt place but then they have other food. Cheese steak, paninis, fries and hot dogs. Then we didnt even get to their speciality desserts which are a variety of deep fried options. Amazing! Then they also have rolled ice cream which is a crazy combination of cold stone creamery and home made ice cream. Come check this place out!

We were cruising Grubhub on a Friday night and came across Purple Spoon. The assortment of loaded fries caught my eye and the rolled ice cream incited my wifes attention. If youre wondering if you should give this place a try, dont think twice. With one bite of my fries I was hooked. I asked my wife what she thought and she inquired about ordering again tomorrow. The truth is we cant wait to sample the menu.

Paninis are pretty good, wings and fries are a bit on the salty side but not too much. Rolled ice cream is very good. Definitely will come back and try other options.

This is a fun twist on Coldstone Creamery. However, here they mix and chop all ingredients for your chosen treat. The employees work very, very hard its fun and impressive to watch.Ive had many yummy treats here. Today was the Reuben Hood and a Volcano for dessert. The sandwich was excellent. One of the best Reuben sandwiches Ive ever had.The Volcano is a chocolate lava cake, coconut ice cream topped off with strawberries. Great combination.Fun and yummy place. You have to try it.

Very clean space. The rolled ice cream wasnt bad, the cookies and cream and ferraro rocher ones could have much stronger taste. Theyre a bit pricey, about $7.50 each. It was nice to try but not sure if I would return based off the overall taste and pricepoint.

Finally! A local place that I can get rolled ice cream! This place is great I love the flavors and topping choices. & the staff was very nice! 10/10 would recommend especially for these super hot summer days!

This place is amazing! The staff is always friendly, happy, and really make you feel comfortable in there. The place is always clean and the overall atmosphere is perfect. The ice cream is always great and they have a huge variety of toppings! If you have a child that has a dairy allergy, like I do, then take them here because they have non-dairy ice cream as well! All in all this is a great spot to go to if you have the urge for some ice cream, you will not be disappointed!

This is by far one of the greatest frozen yogurt/ ice cream places I have ever been to! First of all, let start with the amazing staff! They are all so nice and friendly and are willing to help you to make sure you pick the right flavor for you! They have rolled ice cream which is so amazing because you can’t get that around anywhere!! I got the banana spilt rolled ice cream and it was just delicious. The consistency was just so different and so tasty it makes you want to get another cup, and yes I finished all my ice cream (NEVER DONE THAT BEFORE). Secondly, the place is just very clean and I can tell how much work and detail they put into making the place so welcoming. It’s just so amazing seeing a place just open and seeing how many great reviews it has, I hope this business grows and we have more purple spoons around because we need them!!! Will be back again soon!

The rolled ice cream is amazing! We tried the strawberry cheesecake and it was perfect. You get each of the toppings in every bite, and the consistency of the ice cream was sooo good. I cannot wait to go back and try their other flavors as well as their soft serve. Plus, the staff was extremely friendly and helpful.

You could say that I’m a regular these days. My sister and I found PS on accident one day and we’ve been hooked since. The store in itself is immaculate - aside from occasional storms of customers that don’t pick up after themselves. I love the staff - they’re funny and engaging while they make you whatever your heart desires (no seriously, you can create your own). Their newest food additions has been an interesting journey (I haven’t tried everything). They will treat you with severe kindness and even try to help you out if you don’t know what you want!

I rarely ever leave reviews, but after trying out purple spoon for the first time i knew i had to! i do not have one bad thing to say about this place. such a clean and friendly environment to be in and the staff/owners are so friendly and welcoming! their chocolate covered strawberries and rolled ice cream are my favorite! this place is worth the wait, everyone needs to try it!!

To all the people leaving one star, they’re crazy! Leaving rates on something that they can’t control like the parking lot, there’s a ton of other businesses in that strip mall! I went 2 times in one week for they’re rolled ice cream and it was WELL worth the wait, it’s made fresh people aren’t understanding that. You want fast and not that good go next door to cold stone, you want good ice cream go to purple spoon, all the staff is BEYOND friendly and some of the nicest people I’ve encountered. I took my boyfriend from out of state there and he loved it, the music is cool and I love that they play cool videos of rolled ice cream on the tv, I never got a chance to try the Frozen yogurt before I left but I will definitely try when I’m in Michigan next! 5 star ice cream for sure ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

By far the BEST frozen sweet treat around! I have tried a couple flavors of the self-serve (the Watermelon & Pomegranate Sorbet are the best) & the Banana Split rolled ice cream is awesome! The staff is friendly, greets you with a smile, is constantly cleaning & always go out of their way to help their patrons. Keep up the great work Purple Spoon!!!

OMG... I found them by accident. Purple is my favorite color... so when I clicked on them & realized they had rolled ice cream, I WAS SUPER EXCITED. I just went on Sunday & I am sooooo glad that I did. They had great customer service & my 1st rolled ice cream experience was a success. The young man that did mine, did a great job!!! I even gave them an awesome idea for Ice Cream Dates lol.

Review №67

Moe called for service on his ice cream machine and his cold plate for rolling ice cream. He was told he should not fix the cold tray because it is a cheap Chinese piece of equipment. He still chose to repair it and then complained when I cannot repair it. I told moe you should not repair this unit but I will be happy to take your money. I had hoped this would dissuade him, it did not. I repaired and diagnosed his ice cream machine and he refused to pay for the visit. They are cheap and will cut corners which includes food safety. You should not eat here. The inside of the ice cream machines where the motors are have rotten ice cream on them because the staff is too cheap to replace the rear barrel seals and then do not clean the inside once they leak.

I never take the time to do reviews but I found this place worth one. I’ve tried many trendy ice cream places like ifreeze, menchies, orange leaf, but this one trumps them all! The owners told me a little about their story and I love how it’s privatly owned by a family with a dream. Such lovely people. The rolled ice cream was so delicious and like nothing I’ve ever had before! My husband and I will definitely be back.
