Great atmosphere, feels like stepping into an Instagram post. Clean, cute, quick, and great quality ice cream (source: am an ice cream snob who is lactose intolerant. Worth the pain.)
Unnecessarily in depth review of what I got:
Birthday Cake Ice Cream: 8/10. Great texture, strong vanilla flavor throughout. Frosting texture and flavor is good. Frosting isn't "icy", it has a good texture that melts into the rest of the ice cream and doesn't "separate" like other birthday cake ice creams do.
Espresso: 5/10. Keep in mind: I am very very picky with coffee, so PLEASE take this review with a grain of salt. I am very sensitive to the taste of coffee oil buildup that naturally accumulates in the machine. Were it a full black cup of coffee and not just a shot of espresso, I would not have finished it. The machine would benefit from a very thorough deep clean. Aside from the buildup, though, it tasted good. Not burnt at all, very pleasant aroma, and just the right amount of bitter. (...I knew I was a coffee snob, but it wasn't until I typed this out that I realized how much of a snob I was. Goodness gracious I need to take it down a notch or two.)
Salted Caramel Chocolate Covered Pretzel Ice Cream: 9/10. WOW! Fantastic. The chocolate keeps the pretzels from becoming soggy and they have a light, airy crunch. The salt is present and pleasant. They absolutely NAILED the caramel- the texture perfectly melds into the ice cream. It doesn't become hard or "taffy like" like lower quality caramel swirl ice creams. Actually tastes like caramel ice cream, not just "sweet". I wish there was more chocolate (it's only a thin coating on the pretzel), but that's just me being picky lol.
Basically: I will be returning and taking my mother along with me to experience this, kidnapping her if necessary. If you see her missing on the news, just know she is safe with me at the Sweet Spot and is getting ice cream. (if you see this, hi...
Read moreIf you’re looking for a milkshake experience that’s as Instagram-worthy as it is indulgent, The Sweet Spot delivers with flair, fun, and full-on sugar overload. This place doesn’t just serve milkshakes—they build dessert monuments.
Take their churro shake, for example. It comes topped with fresh cinnamon-sugar churros, a swirl of whipped cream, a full-size upside-down cone, and even a giant red candy stick—all packed into a cinnamon-sugar-rimmed jar. It’s a full dessert course, not just a drink.
Across the table? A wild cotton candy unicorn shake, crowned with clouds of pink and blue fluff and a candy-crusted rim, looking more like a cartoon dream than something edible. Add to that double-stacked ice cream cones loaded with mint chip and Oreo—yeah, this place doesn’t believe in moderation.
Atmosphere: Over-the-top pink aesthetic, floral arrangements, neon signs, and a vibe that screams birthday party meets glam...
