About The Sweet Retreat

The Sweet Retreat is a must-visit spot with 30 flavors of soft serve ice cream and hand-dipped cones. The generous portions at low prices make it a great value, with cones costing around $3. The staff are friendly, super patient, and do so friendly. The shop itself is clean, cute, and has a fun vibe. The ice cream quality is top-notch. The Peanut Butter Heart Attack Sundae is a standout, full of rich peanut butter flavor. With an insane flavor list, including options like KI Blue, cotton candy, cremè de mint, and blue sky, there's something for everyone. The shop also offers dole whip, Ice Cream Nachos, slushies, smoothies, and "The Cyclone" flurry. Seating outside is great. While the lobby wasn't open, a doorbell around back can be used. The overall experience is enjoyable, and it's the kind of place you'll crave again the second you leave. Customers praise the friendly staff, the variety of flavors, and the warm, inviting vibe that makes it perfect for hanging out or grabbing a quick treat. Despite occasional slow drive-thru times, staff like Ryleigh always work hard to keep things moving smoothly.
