About
A small outpost of Costa Rica's Pops ice-cream chain, a cool stop when the Uvita heat sets in. Reviewers call the ice cream itself delicious and flavorful, with classic and tropical scoops to choose from. The space is tight, so seating and shade are limited, and it can get crowded on weekend afternoons, but for a quick sweet break it does the job.

Pops is a delightful little ice cream spot tucked away in Uvita, and it’s definitely worth a visit if you’re craving something sweet and refreshing. While the shop itself is quite small, it adds to the cozy, local vibe that makes the experience feel personal and welcoming. The ice cream? Delicious.flavorful, and clearly made with care. Whether you're into classic vanilla or more adventurous tropical flavors, there's something here for everyone. I was impressed by the wide variety of choices—there’s a flavor for every mood and palate. That said, there’s still room for improvement. A bit more seating or shade could elevate the experience, especially on hot days. And while the service was friendly, a little more efficiency during busy hours would go a long way. Overall, Pops is a great stop for a cool treat in Uvita. With just a few tweaks, it could go from great to exceptional. Highly recommended for ice cream lovers exploring the area!
Crowded over the weekend, especially in the afternoon, but it's a great stop during your busy week. And a more delicious alternative to any fancy cafe nearby, if you like frappuccino or smoothies.
Great ice cream when it’s hot!
