“Sylvia Dee’s Coffee Shop is an absolute gem! I stopped in and tried the seasonal strawberry shortcake latte, and it was incredible. The flavor was perfectly balanced — sweet, creamy, and full of fresh strawberry notes without being overpowering. It truly tasted like dessert in a cup.

The service was just as impressive as the drink. It was welcoming, friendly, and efficient, which made the whole experience even better. You can tell they really care about both their craft and their customers.

I’ll definitely be returning to try more seasonal specials. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re looking for a cozy spot with amazing drinks and great service!“

“Scoops of Joy served ice cream to our neighbors in Frontenac at our recent Ice Cream Social and Open House. Not only was the ice cream delicious, it came in ten different flavors! Bridget, the employee who served at our occasion, was delightful, patient and excellent with small children. You will find owner Sandy Daniels to be a friendly and organized partner in helping you to plan your event. I highly recommend Scoops of Joy!“

“Great service, amazing gelato!“

“This place is the best! Fantastic custard, wonderful service and even better location. My boys enjoying their custard while watching for trains.“

“Doozles is the Best neighborhood treat in the area.“

“I visited on a day Hubby and I went out for lunch. He ended up getting the strawberry cheesecake as a shake which was 10/10 delicious. I opted for the gooey butter icecream in a cup. Y’all …… it was so delicious . The icecream was creamy and the pieces of gooey butter were on point. But I also grabbed a biscoff cheesecake slice . This took me overboard . Not too sweet just right from the thickness down to the texture and the execution of the way it was presented. Definitely some bomb cheesecake and sweets. We will be back!!! 10/10 for all treats devoured ❤️“

“My two favorites are the bramble berry crisp and the wild berry lavender. The darkest chocolate is really good and pairs well with the wild berry lavender. We recently went and they had a few galaxy themed ice cream flavors. My son got super moon and really liked it. I wasn’t a huge fan be he’s tore it up. I got nebula berry, which was tasty 😋. However, purple star born captured my heart. Sounds weird to say but it was absolutely delicious and I’m thinking about going back to see if they sell this in a pint. Which says something because I can’t stand grape flavored foods -other than grapes- and I loved it so much. Reminds me of like a sprinkling white grape juice. I also couldn’t leave out of there without grabbing a pint of the bramble berry crisp. They have options for dairy free so this is definitely a place I would recommend and have recommended to friends,family and coworkers. You just don’t find ice cream flavors like these anywhere else..“

“Girl with blue eyes and long lashes was by FAR the best retail worker I’ve ever met in my life. I walked in after a hard day of work just wanted a scoop of cookie dough and I was met with nothing short of a charismatic and exceptional young lady. She conducted the interaction with a smile on her face, and a positive attitude. Thank you for turning my frown upside down. 💕“

“Stopped there after a square dance. It was some of the best custard I'd ever eaten. Yes, better than Ted Drew's! Even though I'm on Weight Watchers, I'm going back tomorrow! It's worth it!!“

“Amazing owner! So sweet and personable. I forgot my phone in the bathroom and she came three hours after closing to help me get it. We live out of state and were panicking. Absolutely grateful. She also makes amazing looking cupcakes!“

“Delicious smoothies friendly service thank you 😊“

“Love, kids love, friendly staff !“

“We got the large vanilla shaved ice, it was amazing! It was so creamy, the texture was perfect, not overly sweet and the strawberries added such a nice balance. The large size was huge, my husband and I shared it easily. 10/10, can’t wait to go back and try out some of the other flavors of the shaved ice and to try their teas“

“Our PTO had the truck out to school. They accommodated a special selection of treats and served everyone quickly. It was a great experience! Students and teachers loved it.“

““The Fro-Yo Kingdom Where My Spoon Became a Sword”

If you ever wander into Menchie’s in Fenton expecting an ordinary yogurt stop… prepare for a flavor adventure. The self-serve bar looks like Willy Wonka’s frozen dessert lab, with enough topping choices to make your inner five-year-old squeal. Reviewers say the variety is a major draw. 
• Vegan or avoiding dairy? They’ve got you covered. One fan mentioned at least two vegan options (“pomegranate” and “pineapple” sorbet flavors) that don’t make you feel like you’re being punished for your dietary choices. 
• Friendly and clean enough—they’re keeping the machines running and smiles on deck. 
• The self-serve model means you’re the master of your dessert destiny—go wild piling on fruits, sauces, sprinkles (or all three). Just remember: your cup’s weight is your bill’s weight. One wise vegan reviewer gave this tip:
“be careful with the toppings b/c it’s priced by weight so it can get pricey quickly!” 

My highlight reel:
• Walked in hungry, walked out triumphant (and sticky around the edges because I might have overloaded the peanut-butter sauce).
• Felt like royalty perched on a bench with a bowl full of colors and textures.
• Staff were nice, machines were cold, options were endless.
• Bonus: for kids (and kid-hearts): chaos is welcomed, laughing encouraged, topping globs accepted.

So here’s the verdict:
If you’re in Fenton and in the mood for fro-yo that doesn’t just fill a sweet craving but owns it, this is your spot. Go bold. Load up. Taste test everything. Bring a friend to argue over who gets the last gummy bear topping. I’ll be back (and yes, I’ll likely tilt the flavor meter toward “ridiculous”).“

“I am visiting the city and decided to grab some food and ice cream. I am glad that I did The manager and Ja’mya were great to talk to as I waited for my food. I would definitely suggest this location the next time you’re in St. Louis. Good food and excellent customer service.“

“Super friendly when I walked in and greeted me. I placed a mobile order and there was about 15 min wait, not too long. I didn’t get the guy at the counters name but he was super nice showing me my order and then bagging it up for me. Definitely gonna order again. Me and my kids love crumbl cookies.“

“We can't wait to see baby Jet, the new elephant!“

“Crystals Crémery.. Was the best ice cream i have ever had.. Taste so rich and creamy.. You are in 4 a treat“

“The snow monster is my favorite. Love it. But the s’mores jackhammer was delicious.“

“I made a pretty big birthday order and somehow door dash got things confused - I didn't get what I ordered. I called the Watson Store and Haley and the crew were on it. Fixed everything and had a new order to me within an hour. You guys are great!!! Cookies aren't bad either. :)“

“One of the best places to go for a great snowcone I've been known to family for years and they've really built it in to a very nice business. Try one girls &guys.“

“Great service with a wide selection of froyo options. My husband and I both got froyo and a boozy beverage. Loved everything! We stayed a played cards for a bit, such a great idea to have games! Fun for all ages. (Discovered my husband doesn’t know how to play uno 🤣)“

“Awesome!!!!!!! Love this place very delicious and fun!!!!“

“Ice cream was delicious! Variety of handscooped flavors. Perfect for any craving.
The food sounded amazing! But we arrived 25 mintues before closing. On a holiday weekend. Poor girl alone as a late crowd walked in. Felt terrible for her. Can tell she was overwhelmed as each new guest appeared, 8:40, 8:45, 8:56, still new groups walking in. And if you do ANYTHING but a scoop or 2 into a bowl or cone, game over. Shame on whomever scheduled 1 closer on memorial day weekend.
If you arrive late, be patient. But I can say. It's worth the wait. I had the latte themed one. With chocolate chunks. Perfect way to end a beautiful sunday. And my niece got a cute keepsake in the form of a baseball helmet for only $1.50 more.“

“todo esta delicioso vengo de vacaciones y El servicio exelente muy recommendable 💯“

“I was on lunch break was told food would be done in 10 minutes. waited 30. got back to work very late. To top it off the food was disgusting. I'm not sure if there was even a burger patty provided. what was om the sandwich was an over abundance of mayo and mustard like I guess I ordered a mustard and mayo sandwich. It was messy made the bun soggy and just all around gross. I was going to bring all my kidd back to eat and will NEVER EAR HERE AGAIN. A REFUND IS WANTED. 27 DOLLARS FOR 2 BURGERS 2 DRINKS AND 1 FRY AND THE PLAIN CHEESEBURGWR HAD ONIONS ON IT WASNT SUPPOSE TO. NEEDLESS TI SAY NO ONE ATE THEIR MEAL WE ORDERED ELSE WHERE AND I SUGGEST SKIPPING PAST THIS PLACE. NOT WORTH THE TIME IR MONEY WASTED.“

“Absolutely amazing! We did the delivery and pick up of a Christmas tree and we are beyond happy with our experience!!! Our tree is absolutely gorgeous and we can’t wait to decorate it! This just makes thanksgiving a little more magical!!! We really needed that this year! Thank you again!“
