We truly love Paul's! The ice cream is exceptional. My favorite is the mango. The staff at the Rosebank mall are really sweet too. The only down side is that we often go and find that there's virtually no ice cream left!

Seriously, the best ice-cream I've had anywhere. Nothing I've found locally or internationally has come close. They have the biggest variety of flavours and you can't go wrong with any of them. We always stop by for an ice-cream when we're in Rosebank or anywhere in Parkhurst. Please bring back Bad Breakup, that was the best flavour ever!

Ice cream is amazing specifically the cereal milk flavour. Service and pay point has no structure and is chaotic needs improvement.

Although it’s winter the franchise keeps changing the flavors, so always keeping up with new trends and new Flavors to keep us going back for more no matter what the season is.

My first time having vegan ice cream!!!!! Their ice cream tastes like the real thing. I thought R32 for a small box is a bit too much but by the time I finished it, I felt the money was well worth it. And I like the fact that they aren't charging us vegans more. Keep it up! I have been twice and am going to try every flavour I can.
Also If you're stuck trying to figure out if you should try coconut or dark chocolate, go for coconut!

My absolute favorite place to get ice cream any time of the day, any season of the year. However this menu has outdated prices on it, as with a lot of other menus on Zomato.

Paul’s ice cream is absolutely the best ice cream in South Africa!

I always try to get the health ice cream when I’m on my diet. Don’t know how healthy it really is compared to the normal ice cream, but it’s the thought that counts. The ‘peanut butter’ flavor is amazing.

Wish that the nutritional values could be on the packaging.

Great location, service is quick and friendly.

The only thing that’s sad to me is that their stock, in the freezers, sell out so quickly that I’ve been disappointed a few times because of no stock. But congratulations to them for being that popular!

Pauls Homemade Ice cream is the stuff of dreams. Every flavour is absolutely incredible. Roasted banana for the win! At this point I am getting an ice cream from them at least once a week. If it's not from their stores then it is from my local spar. I'm obsessed!

This place makes me weak in the knees. I look forward to their new flavors every month. The churros flavor has been my best so far. The ice cream is great quality. I work in the events industry and we had done an event for a beer company. Paul’s ice cream made us beer flavor ice creams which was the biggest hit.

Can you imagine Chocolate, Nutella and Oreo all in one ice cream? Paul’s has got it covered for you. Finest homemade ice cream in Johannesburg ensures everyday becomes a cheat day. If you are a coffee lover do not miss on varied coffee ice cream options they have.

I must admit. The store layout is not fantastic or efficient but that won’t matter if there aren’t many people in the shop at once.

Nonetheless the ice cream sure makes up for it and the reason you’ll be back. I was greeted by a lovely staff member. I am not vegan but I ordered the vegan dark chocolate. It’s my fav now. This is the second time I’ve tried it and it’s consistent. Whenever I’m feeling for ice cream Paul would be my go-to guy!

This must be the best ice cream I’ve ever had. The staff are friendly too, and always helpful. They allow you to sample different flavours before you make your choice of ice cream, which I love. There are delicious and innovative flavours, with a new ‘flavour of the month’ each month- so you never run out of stuff to try!

PAUL’S IS MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE ICE CREAM EVER! It’s so so yummy! You can just tell that Paul took a lot of time perfecting his ice cream! I’ve never tasted such fresh authentic ice cream. You can taste that there is nothing artificial about Paul’s ice cream. I would love to meet Paul! I have so many questions for him! He is a real inspiration!

Well priced, friendly and efficient service, and a fantastic selection of flavours. The texture of the ice cream at Paul's is also rather unique; not too dense like at The Creamery, and not too soft to melt too quickly. This outlet truly never disappoints!

I'm convinced that there is no greater ice cream in South Africa. And with flavours that include honey-rooibos, there may actually be no greater ice cream in the world. I'm a Paul's Homemade Ice Cream advocate to anyone who so much as passes through Joburg with a 2 hour layover at OR Thambo. The ice cream, obviously, is delicious, but the staff are also super cool and the new flavours never cease to impress me.

Paul, if you're listening, pretty please open a Cape Town branch so I can visit all the time. Pretty pretty please.

I was in Joburg for a bit and had an Ice Cream craving while shopping in Rosebank. I was really homesick and missing The Creamery when a friend recommended Paul's.

The store is small and unassuming but OH MY GOSH the ice cream is so delicious. I was skeptical and decided to play it safe with the vanilla and ended up buying 2 other flavours after! Their sugar cone is also pretty yum - sweet and crispy and doesn't lose its shape when doused with ice cream.

I'm starting to have a Paul's craving in Cape Town 😂 that's how good it is.

I'm not a big Ice-cream fan but I love milkshakes, unfortunately they don't make milkshales.

The ice-cream however is on another level. I was helped by a really friendly store person. He made me try almost all the flavours before I made my choice.

I had the salted caramel eventually...I actually wished I could have a few. The portion on the cone was also very generous.

Good treat!

Best ice cream in town. I'm a regular at Paul's in Rosebank because the ice-cream is amazing and the staff very pleasant. I was there last weekend to get my favorite ice-cream, birthday cake. It is so unique and out of this world. It is taste like the whole birthday experience from the blowing out of the candles to the cutting of the cake. I was very disappointed when a seven year old took the last scoop. I settled for cookie dough (or something like that) not too sure about the name. It was nearly as good as birthday cake, a very good second. Staff was very amused at my breakdown because of the lack of birthday cake. They recommended flavors though and were very supportive during this time. Love this place

Apr 22: After dinner, instead of standing in queue for a donut, this time decided to eat Paul's home made ice cream. I have heard highly about the ice cream and decided to go for it. The small outlet is quite attractive from far. They have a nice ice cream selling bicycle - cute. We had the marshmallow and dark choco with chilli ice cream. My kid enjoyed the marshmallow ice cream. The ingredients seemed really good quality and the ice cream was smooth. I love ice cream with dark chocolate and if there is chilli added, then, it's better. The taste of this ice cream was good and just like Lindt Chilli chocolate, the chilli hits you once the ice cream passes your throat. Awesome. However, didn't feel the consistency throughout the scoop. The chilli wasn't hitting with every bite. But, otherwise, very good quality ice creams.

We tried Paul's homemade ice cream over the weekend for the first time, and it is worth a try to decide whether you like it or not.

The staff was very friendly and helpful, and the few flavours available were interesting flavours which will work for most:  blueberry cheese cake, milk tart, roast banana, salty caramel etc.  Some of the ice creams, especially the milk tart and birthday cake flavours, taste like batter and not like ice cream.  I am sure different people will have different opinions about it.

The average price is R25 per scoop, which feels to me a bit pricey, but at least you get a decent scoop of ice cream.  I have some mixed feelings about this outlet still.

Please note that a few seats outside are indeed available if you wish to sit down.  If you really like the ice cream, you can also buy tubs here to take home.

One thing that did put me off, is that I wanted to buy ice cream for someone at home, and they had no lids for the bowls - that can definitively be improved!

Im so excited that I finally got to taste this famous ice cream. It was the perfect taste into my childhood. Because of this fine thing, ice cream has now moved up my rankings of my favourite desserts!
The only way I can truly get people to understand how incredible this ice cream is, you have to go and taste it yourself. What I loved was that they don't only offer the typical, chocolate, vanilla, cookies and cream. They have the most innovative, different type of flavors. You can taste the effort that goes into this ice cream. The desert lover that I am, I had to taste all the offered ice creams, and I felt like I was in heaven with each one. It melts so perfectly in your mouth. It's the type of treat that was made to bring sensations that are filled with love and happiness.
I can't tell you who to come with, what vibe you'll get, and when to come. All I will emphasize is that it's definitely a place that should form part of your treat list, you are guaranteed to be pleased beyond expectation.

I loved it! There was so much to enjoy! It's a good place to treat yourself.

The best thing that's happened to the Rosebank Mall to counter Joburg heatwaves and help make cheat days worth it.

Paul's makes such great and unique flavours and the ice cream portions are very satisfying.

My personal favorite is the Chocolate Nutella Oreo but birthday cake comes close. I've also tried the coconut and milk tart flavours which I think are okay but just not as great as my two favourite ones.

The vegan friendly options are interesting and a great option to console yourself post a rewarding gym session on the way home but don't think They taste anything like ice cream as they are made from coconut cream and coconut milk. Zero sugar, zero fat and zero regrets 😊.

A personal favorite for which I have a special passion for. I'm not much of a desert person in the sense that it won't redeem a meal or heavily influence my feelings toward a meal. I suppose this sort of sentiment applies until you find a dessert that redeems a meal for you. Here it is. A fresh, exciting take on a traditional past time. I could not believe the flavor combinations or how well they went together. Special mention needs to be made of 'Birthday Cake' flavored ice cream. Wow. Wow. Wow.

I continue to be enthralled by the innovations Paul's is taking to the dessert market. Far be it from being a small ice cream vendor with vanilla, chocolate and one other flavor. The cookies, ice cream logs, allergy free and hot drink options (to stave off the winter chill) are show stoppers in their own regard. It's intended to be a take away so now real bearing on the vibe. Decor is eye catching, different and appealing. Overall an outright showstopper.

4,5 is high for me for any kind of establishment,
But man alive the icecream is well worth any score I give.
Using uber eats twice in one week to get those delectable boxes of creamy joy is a testiment to its goodness i bearly never eat at the same place twice ........

Do your self a favour and either stop by and get some goodness that will always give you that childhood happiness flash back, or when your taste buds feel like they need a post dinner treat. Pick up your phone and order some goodness... ( ps order any flavour so far everyone I've had is delectable...
Especially birthday cake and the Chocolate Nutella oreo....) just make sure you order before 2100 or you might get dissapointed.

We've tried PHIC on two different occasions and both times the ice cream was so good.
There's a wide range of flavours available which just makes choosing one so much harder.

The ice cream tastes like a lot of effort has gone into making it and one scoop is more than enough as they are pretty generous.

Been a PHIC groupie since forever. Waiting for the week flavour list to get my hands on the creamy goodness, to visiting Fathers for waffle Saturdays to popping into markets for my fix so love the convenience of a dedicated store. 

My favorite flavours constantly changed but my current one is Birthday Cake ice cream which tastes like happiness. A scoop is too much for me and usually have to split it. 

Hard to eat store-bought tubs once you'v had a nibble of PHIC.

Really such a fan of PHIC. This specific outlet is small but the service is always friendly and helpful. You can buy them as a scoop or prepackaged from the fridge. Most flavours are delicious. Most recently we tried their Banting ice cream, which was average and probably wouldn't get that again.

Paul's Homemade Ice Cream is a great Joburg gems that shows the diversity of Joburg's food culture. The local ice cream has some delicious and creative flavours from Dolce de Lette, peppermint crisp tart to even Birthday Cake! The ice cream promises unique experiences and delivers on quality, taste and just that fuzzy feeling you get when you eat ice cream. Although probably not the best additive for a summer beach body - Pauls ice cream is well deserved treat after a long week at work or if you have one of those moments when you just need amazing ice cream

I love dropping by Paul's whenever I'm at Rosebank to see what exciting flavours they have in offer. I come at least two Sundays a month to have their Ice Cream Sundae.

Tucked away at the zone, near Krispy kremes, this local brand of ice cream is quickly gaining popularity among locals who enjoy gourmet home made Ice cream and ice cream cakes. Not the cheapest of places but half the price of international brand Hagen Daz. The flavor "Ice cream cake" is my favorite,although it taste different everytime I eat it, which is not good. Many flavors lack enough sugar and not as creamy. They could learn a thing or two from Hagen Daz, but definitely worth a visit

Had a little bit of a sweet tooth while wondering around Rosebank on Saturday so decided to give Pauls Homemade Ice Cream a try. YUMMY! My sweet tooth was definitely satisfied.
They are tucked away in a corner and lack much of an atmosphere or even much foot-traffic, but then again they are an Ice Cream Shop.The staff are very friendly and efficient and more than willing to suggest the most popular flavours.
I had decided to go with the Madagascan vanilla with raspberry, and the Cookie dough flavours. The sweet raspberry was perfectly complimented by the more toned down vanilla, and the Cookie dough flavour had actual chunks of cookie dough in it which reminded me of my childhood-licking the bowl after baking. Some other flavours they serve include "birthday Cake", "Roasted Banana nutella" and "Nutella Chocolate Oreo flavour' which I will definitely come back to try.
My only upset would be that I would have liked to see more fruity or sorbet-ish flavours that weren't so rich and milk based-Also I would have thought for a standalone shop they would have had a larger selection of flavours,not just one small fridge.

Loooong queue at Krispy Kreme & Starbucks so we opted for some ice cream instead.
We choose a salty caramel cup to share. Not cheap considering the size of the scoop but then the cup & spoons are above average quality.
It was however very yummy. Smooth, creamy and filled with a biscuit & lumps of caramel.
Very very yummy. We both thoroughly enjoyed it.
We'll definitely be back for more.

I am extremely impressed with Paul's Homemade ice cream.🍦🍦 the flavors are creative and innovative. I had three scoops- toasted s'mores-coconut- banana and chocolate(can't remember the creative name) It is definitely homemade. It tastes like the just crushed the coconut and mixed it with a tad of cream and froze it. Great texture and flavors. The combinations of the ice cream is made with such perfection. I will be going back to try all the other flavors. Such a great concept and even better that the ice cream speaks for itself.

This is one of the best ice creams I've had in such a long time.
They are smooth,creamy and delicious with some really exotic flavors (Vietnamese coffee with Oreo, it's a must). You have the option of having it in a cup/sugar cone or their homemade cones (I had it in the home made cone and it leaked) I suggest the normal cone

I am a huge fan of Pauls homemade ice cream. Their ice cream is absolutely delicious. My favourite flavour has to be birthday cake with toasted banana a close second. I also recently tasted their chocolate nutella oreo which was so yummy. They also have dairy free and sugar free options, which is great for those concerned about their waists. Look out for their ice-cream sunday events once a month in Bramley.

Paul Ballen is a proudly South African ice cream genius and really believes that ice cream is an art! I am very happy to see that he has transitioned into his own retail outlet (in Rosebank) in this hot South African weather. 

In early 2014, Josh Amoils and Paul partnered and started making ice cream in Orange Grove. Paul then received his first BIG order on March 31, 2014 from Thrupps and he hasn't looked back since. I have had quite a few of his ice cream flavours but on this visit, I chose his salted caramel ice cream which is always delicious. 
Another thing that I like about this ice cream is the authentic box packaging that it comes in. 

*Recommendation: Pauls got an incredible range of flavours that you can order: Peppermint Crisp Tart, Chocolate/Nutella/Oreo, Birthday Cake, Milk Chocolate, Roasted Banana, Madagascan Vanilla, Dulce De Leche and last but not least Cookies & Cream (which is also a favourite of mine). Head down in this heat and pick a flavour :)

It's great to see a local brand expanding. There is definitely a reason behind its success - very good REAL ice cream, available in unique flavours.

You can taste that the quality of the ingredients used is of a very high standard. I would recommend having the roasted banana flavour. Also visit their website for custom orders showcasing flavours beyond your imagination.

Looking forward to my next scoop!

Paul's Homemade Ice Cream has successfully transitioned from being a supplier to a retailer. My first encounter with PHIC was when I purchased a tub to go with pizza order at Petrone's Pizzeria in Edenvale. Since then I have always been on the look out for PHIC and now I know exactly where to go to get my fix. 

I love ice cream in it's simplest form but if you're someone who loves creative ways of consuming ice cream then PHIC's ice cream sandwiches are a must.

OH.MY.WORD. Best ice cream we have ever had. The staff was really friendly and allowed us to have small tastes of all flavours before deciding. Everything was delicious, especially the Chai Tea (my favourite) and birthday cake (husband's favourite). We also had pappermint crisp tart, dulche de leche, and salted caramel. The ice cream has an amazing creamy texture and you can taste the quality of the ingredients. Can't wait to go back for more!!!

After all the hype and reviews from friends about Paul's homemade ice cream i finally got to try it - Absolutely Delicious! The flavours are unique and incredibly tasty! I tried the roasted banana flavour which tasted like banana bread! Definitely well worth the calories!

I luv the fact that Paul's has opened up in Rosebank. It's a quaint little shop that u may not notice unless u look twice; but the ice cream is worth all the calories. My favourite is the salted caramel...luv it! My friend had the Nutella chocolate one which was also good.

I love Paul's in Rosebank because the parking is easy, the newly revamped shop is gorgeous but it has two flaws... It needs more seating but my biggest request is, please serve some coffee!!! Waffles are crispy and delicious. Ice cream is a treat and service is great. 😊

Got there just after closing time last night, but was happy to find Paul’s ice cream at the Spar this morning. 🌟 Sort of like serendipity!! 🍨 Love that they have so many options and vegan and kosher 👍

Undoubtedly the finest ice cream in South Africa! 🍦 I find myself addicted to their irresistible flavours. Highly recommended for a date or family time, indulging in their ever-changing, delightful flavours, including timeless favorites like Birthday Cake! Really enjoying the new, more spacious than before – it's incredibly adorable!

If you want to reward yourself for making your steps on a cold winters night 19/8 then try Pauls ice cream.The waffels with salted caramel and nuts was crazy delicious. Between the 5 of us we got a variety of flavours..including the vegetarian flavors..would have to give that another chance though. The ladies who work there are friendly, quick and know their stuff. Definitely sit down at the tables and chairs..you enjoy your treat more

Great little shop. Was disappointed with the seating though there was not enough space. We ended up standing then decide to rather leave. Service was good and the ice-cream was great. As for accommodation it's a 0 for me 👎

Fist time at Paul's, definitely not dissapointed. Waffels was great, ice-cream even better. Can recomend to anyone with a sweet tooth. Only one thing that i would like to add with a sit-down waffele is a cup of coffee.

Hmmmm, the ice cream here 😋 is out of this world. I've never tasted ice cream this good in my life. Whether you want it on a cone or in a cup, they've got you covered. There is not a lot of sitting space, which makes sense as it's only an ice cream shop but you can grab a seat of its not packed or you can simply buy and grab a seat outside in the mall and breathe some fresh air whilst enjoying the ice cream.

Absolutely love this place. My new favourite ice-cream joint. I recommend you go during low-peak hours cause then you can easily taste the flavours without being rushed.

After their waffle maker was fixed we finally got our ice cream fix! The batter was still frozen, but we were willing to wait after we were disappointed the previous time. The ice cream is out of this world (as usual) and the service was good and friendly, although they were slightly unprepared. The atmosphere in the middle of the noisy mall is not the best so we might look for a different branch next time.

Love a good ice cream. Paul's Homemade definitely ticks that's box. A variety of flavors to choose from and very delighted to have found a vegan option, which was really good.
