Description

Nevelandia is a Mexican paletería and nevería just off the Central Avenue corridor in Kansas City, Kansas. The small, childhood-themed parlor turns out an array of ice cream flavors and paletas alongside traditional Mexican quick bites — tortas, flautas, tacos, and elotes. Its menu photos are mounted on the wall framed by Mickey Mouse outlines, a quirky bit of branding, and the shop is known for accommodating custom requests. ² It is one of the KCK paleterías featured in regional coverage of the city’s Mexican-popsicle scene.

Ownership and history

Owner names and a founding year are not yet documented in a public first-party source. The shop trades under the full name Paletería y Nevería Nevelandia and appears in KCUR and Kansas City Magazine surveys of local paleterías, which points to an established independent neighborhood operation rather than a chain.
