Wake up Hicksville!!! Young and old. Great food. Wonderful service. Good place for young to get a bite to eat without spending a fortune, hang out and enjoy company. Good place for older crowd to eat fresh food and share old stories! I can picture the olden days the place to meet up and enjoy a meal together. We need more of that! Highly recommend. Good people!!

A local hidden gem and quite simply one of my favorite eateries in Hicksville. You do not want to miss out on this place. Delicious!

If after your trip to IKEA, Theodore Roosevelt Home, or Jones Beach you would like to treat yourself to a surviving piece of Long Island History, the Sweet Shop on Broadway is just that place. A minute or two walk from the Hicksville train station, the sweet shop has stood the test of time for good reason; Seventy years ago people enjoyed quality natural food, in a spotless location, cooked and served by friendly and capable staff at reasonable prices,,, and still can here at the sweet shop in Hicksville. As your walk in, the owner may just be taking a pick-up order on the dial phone on the wall behind the register. While the menu is worth a look, you will notice the regulars concentrate on the specials board. The Athenian is an excellent choice on a cold evening, and the stroganoff exemplifies the idea of comfort food. But remember, these are specials and may get crossed off early, so bear this in mind when planning a visit. A great finish is a waffle-sundae, Homemade waffle, homemade ice cream, homemade whipped cream,,,,,and when I ask as nicely as possible (and it has not run out for the season) a drizzle of Sweet Shop honey, from the owners hive, tops off the treat! While you could leave without at least a look at the homemade chocolates, If you see your favourite, don't think twice about waiting till next time, as like the specials,, they are too often gone. The sweet shop isn't your trendy exciting place, Show me one of those that has aged as well as this.

I was hoping that upon finding this Mom & Pop Sweet Shop would bring back fond memories. I discovered overpriced so-so food and bad service (even though the place wasn't crowded.) The expensive chocolate egg cream was pretty good though, as well it should be considering the cost! Anyhoo, I won't be back.

Love their food, service, and prices are great! Just wished they had a little music playing in the background
I got a chocolate ice cream soda but it was more like a milkshake. It was milk, chocolate syrup, and maybe 2 spoons of chocolate ice cream with some whipping cream on top. It had no carbonated liquid in it. I didn’t like it.
The service was also bad. Forget about a neutral attitude, the employees were borderline annoyed at me being there.
The one thing I did like was the classic diner look it had when I walked in. The guy that made my “soda” also had that diner hat.
I really like looking at the history on the walls, like seeing the 25¢ meal deal back in the 30s. It was really cool.
