SweetSpot — Restaurant in Barrington Township

I have come to this candy shop for the last 10 years. That should speak for itself. If it doesn't, I'll say more:

I absolutely love chocolate malts. Any place I go that has them, I always order one. SweetSpot makes the most INCREDIBLE malt I have ever had anywhere, and not once in 10 years has it been less than amazing!

While there are some areas that could use improvement, SweetSpot still offers a delightful array of treats that are...

So I went in to pick up some various types of gum for my 8 year old niece for part of her birthday present (it’s her latest candy obsession). First of all they have an AMAZING selection. I was blown away! So many nostalgic candies and sweets! Secondly, SweetSpot was able to take my selection of bubble gum candies and turn it into a BEAUTIFUL candy bouquet for a small charge. WORTH EVERY PENNY!!! I can’t wait to see my niece’s face when she receives this! 100% recommend! They went above and beyond what I...
