Mayas Snack Bar

I’ve been here a few times, and I love it because the vibe feels just like the beach or something close! They have everything from ice cream to amazing dishes like the Chamoyada—my favorite. The service is quick, and while they don’t have a parking lot, there’s street parking with meters available. They also have a bathroom, indoor seating, and a patio area for outdoor dining. The place has a fantastic Mexican flair; it’s incredible!

Very good! Wide selection of snacks and foods with a nice display of culture and appetizing atmosphere. I got the fresas con crema, very good and loaded with freshly sliced strawberries!

I had never tried desserts like these. They were good. I’m not a fan of spicy things so my favorite was the strawberry sorbet. They have tables outside for social distancing and only one person per order is allowed to go in at this time.

Went on the weekend during the late evening, was a few people there and a bit of a wait. Overall loved the type of snacks offered! Takes a lil to get used to what you would want, they did offer a variety of choices, ended up getting the Chamoyada. It was the first time I tried this. With the way it looks you would things it's extremely sweet; but it wasn't, which was a surprise! The tamarind candy and mango meshed well. You can customize the type of shaved ice flavor you want, which is awesome. I also tried the crazy esquites which is very customisable depending on chips used as well. It took a bit to understand size wise which would be better since I didn't want anything huge. They were helpful at the counter to explain. Crazy Esquites is the smaller portion compared to the Crazy Tosti Esquites. These are just the individual corn kernels and not on the cob. Loved them! The store itself has cute decor. The staff was also very courteous. When there was an issue with my order, she just gave me the one she made by mistake, as well as the corrected order I made. I would definitely return to this location!

Good place if you are craving sweets, ice cream, desserts. The “gansito” and “Ferrero” flavors in the ice cream were delicious. My wife asked for some “tres leches” that was also pretty good. We’ll be back for more sweet times at this place.

Great elote, more of a sweets spot though. Water pops and agua fresca are amazing. Also, there is this figure on top of the firdge that me and my partner were absorbed with.

Their food is amazing it can be expensive but it’s worth it it’s even more worth it if u like spice👌👌❤️

My friends truly loved the Birthday Watermelon! Truly great service and welcoming staff! Definitely going back!!

What a hidden treasure in Bushwick, Brooklyn! They're a family ran business with a Mexican L.A Vibe in New York! Maya's provided a La Michoacana style Mexican iceand Snacks with a unique twist! All is homemade and you'll be eating with your eyes and not your stomach in there. The ambiance is very colorful and a Mexican Barbie's dream with all the pink hues. I especially loved the traditional music playing while enjoying our sweet treats/snacks. The service was GREAT, super helpful and employee described each dessert with patience and flare. This place gets a WEPA in my book! I can't wait to come back and try other items on the menu. This girl loves a Tajin rim...I was in heaven!

Their hours are kinda weird. Sometimes they should be open but they aren't. Honestly this place may be my go to when it comes to ice cream in ridgewood. I really like their pistachio popsicles or paletas. They have some interesting flavors. The prices are a bit pricey but a lot of ice cream is like that now. Each popsicle is $5.50 and the two scoops is about $7. They give a decent portion and it feels supporting the people that work there.

The mangoneada is so good! I often come here with a friend and thats usually what we split. I would say the portion sizes are pretty generous. Staff has always been kind, and the place is bright and cool with a lot of seating. I think its a good place to get something to cool off with this heat. Great for a date or friends/family.

When summer comes around, one of the first things that I crave is the mangoneada from Maya's Snack Bar. It is so good. Blended mango, with chunks of mango, topped with chamoy, tajin, and banderilla. It's the perfect balance of sweet and tangy. This treat is perfect for a warm summer day. (Or any day, really!) I also recently tried the esquites locos with doritos. The portion is huge and it's a tasty balance of cheesy, salty, and crunchy. What a delicious snack. Maya's also has ice cream and other treats. Go check it out and I know that you'll find something you love!

Maya's Snack Bar is a hidden gem that took me back to my childhood on the islands. The snack ingredients are made with fresh and flavorful ingredients that reminded me of the delicious snacks I used to have at home. The menu is extensive and offers a great variety of options, all of which are bursting with flavor. One of the only downsides I experienced at Maya's Snack Bar was the language barrier between myself and the workers. It was difficult to communicate effectively since I don't speak Spanish fluently, and it seemed like she had some difficulty understanding me as well. However, despite this minor setback, she was still able to provide me with excellent service and a delicious snack that I thoroughly enjoyed. Overall, I highly recommend Maya's Snack Bar to anyone looking for authentic and delicious island-style food. The fresh ingredients and unique flavors are sure to satisfy your cravings, and the friendly staff will make you feel right at home. I can't wait to try more items off the menu and continue my culinary journey at Maya's Snack Bar. Cute Instagramable and tiktok moments!

I came in for a snack and left with a few ! Originally I was just going to grab a mangonada (delicious btw) but they definitely had a lot more to offer I had to try it all. I also got a loaded ramen which had corn and queso fresco on top with a lime, absolutely what I was craving. Then the icing on the cake was their loaded chips, they have my favorite chips, sabritones, and I rarely see those especially being offered to be loaded up . The service was amazing the cashier that helped me also made my order immediately. The workers have a bubbly personality and really tie the whole experience together. I have no pictures because as sooon as I got my order I ate DOWN ! The place itself is so cute and colorful, they have seating just in case you want to enjoy your treats in house.

Their snacks are unique and tasty, I highly recommend the desserts and fruta loca. They have many options from sweet to savory.

I ordered a Mangonada never received it during 5-10 minutes. Everyone was getting their orders except me, I asked about my order and they questioned each other. Turns out no one had made it. Had to request for a refund because it was already past 15 minutes and the girl ended up giving me the wrong change. :/

Here's an honest review. I came here for the first time with a friend who was new to the city and visiting. I was recommended this place by my sister who enjoyed it. This is a dessert or snack location that serves A variety of different items. I had a ice cream sandwich in Mexican sweet bread. For one the sandwich was huge, it had 2 scoops of fruity pebbles ice cream and Cookie Monster and both the flavors were good. The bread was soft and not hard and it was very sweet and delicious. My friend had the Manganada drink and he loved it. The straw is covered in tajin to add spice to the the sweet mangos. In terms of service the staff was nothing but nice and kind. They were patient and answered all the questions I had about ice cream flavors and what they would recommend. It was very nice to meet such sweet people. In terms of ambiance it's a small desert bar. It gave off a small town ice cream shop sort of vibe. I would love to go again sometime. This is my opinion but I encourage you to form your own.

Making orders takes an eternity, especially at night. To be honest, I wouldn't advise going in at night; instead, go during the day.

What a cute spot to enjoy some unique and delicious Mexican snacks. Alex prepared all of our items and everything was delicious! Can't wait to go back and try more snacks, they have so many options that you honestly don't even know where to start. Definitely worth a try, I loved each and every item I tried.

the fact this place is own by non Mexicans, pricing things so expensive I think they are ripping out people. Not nice.

My first time I ordered and they missed my food and plus I called to the store people so rude with really bad attitude they charger me extra and I don't received the items ... like really so why they charger me extra for

I always see people review this place and leave low ratings for either staff not speaking in English or not having menus in English and I need y'all to screw right the hell off. You have a Mexican snack bar in a predominately gentrified area and you have THE GALL to leave low ratings in the other location based off of that? Insane. ANYWAYS. I've been here twice and yes the wait is a little long depending on when you go but it's worth it. The food and snacks are so fresh and filling and full of flavor. I've gotten the chicharron preparado, the esquites locos and the pan dulce and ice cream. They even had a free drink with your order special going on that day. Everything is great and nicely presented. A lot of the time that goes into your order is not only preparation but they have A LOT of orders back to back and usually only have 2-3 people working so cut them some slack. I won't sit here and see people slander Latinos offering a lovely service in a gentrified neighborhoods and see y'all put them down for trivial reasons. If you have an issue with the menu being in Spanish, learn Spanish or learn how to ask the nice people who are serving you if they can translate because they speak English too. Stop being ignorant. The last two times I went, it's such a sweet nice environment and all the customers outside look so happy to have this snack bar in Brooklyn. Also I love the tres leches ice cream so much.

I love this place. My boyfriend and I love coming here for the ice cream! I personally think it's the best place to get ice cream in the area! My favorite is tres leches.

First time visiting and felt like a kid in the candy shop! The guy was very helpful with going over the menu and very welcoming! Very cute colorful place and delicious fruity pebble homemade ice cream!!! Will be back! Nice to have snack bar in our neighborhood

- I Came Here To Get A Mangonada, Expecting It To Ba Good Because I Hurd It Would Be. Horrible It Tasted Like Pure Water With Little Little Mango Taste And Chamoy. If I Could Give It 0 Stars I Would. I've Been To Mexico , And Different States In The US , Which All Have Been Much Better Than This. The Mangonada Does Not Taste Good And Tatse As If It Was Just Water.

They have many Mexican snacks that I love. I plan on trying all of them. The waiting time is a little above average or average, depending on the day and hour but it's totally worth it. I love it here !
