Mom's Sweet Shop / Soft Serve / Acai / Smoothies — Restaurant in Kill Devil Hills

LOVE LOVE Moms Sweet Shop! I've been shopping here since opening day and every year they grow and add new and exciting merchandise and options.

The best part of Mom's Sweet Shop? The employees! Everyone was beyond nice. I asked one employee if they had any more sizes of a shirt I wanted in stock. She checked the inventory, went outside, looked around, and was super amazing about helping me! She was so nice to interact with and so were those making the ice cream.
