The Sweet Shop NYC

Amazing place , great customer service , they really make people feel special. A true family owned business that values its customers! I’m not sure what up with the bad reviews , nothing comes free in this world so it maybe a tad pricey but the quality of service you receive here is amazing! The best ice cream I had all year!! Thank you Matthew and his family for having such a great customer service friendly place available on the upper east side.

Old time candy shop serving up delicious ice cream. Friendly staff. Family owned business. Hidden gem on the upper east side.

Just tried the vegan mint chip ice cream-tasted like what I imagine playdoh with artificial sweetener would taste like.. and for 6.00 for a single scoop. There are so many amazing vegan ice cream spots in NYC- this is NOT one of them!!!

This is the first time that I've ever written a review on google, but my experience at this ice cream shop was so awful that I felt obliged to share it in order to spare other innocent people from getting massively ripped off. I wish I could rate a half star. Went out for ice cream tonight with high hopes for this place based on the reviews - it seems like a friendly, local favorite. The owner served us and he insisted on concocting sundaes catered to our favorite flavors. He served us two scoops each in these tiny little Chinese takeout containers (about half the size of the standard) and charged us $5.00 per scoop and $4.75 per "serving" of fudge. He claimed that we each had double servings of fudge, which brought our bill total to almost $40. Please try to think of the last time you have spent even $20 on a desert of any kind. Can't? Yeah that's what I thought. The owner proceeded to cause a scene in front of all of the other customers when we questioned the bill and said he has the best ice cream in NYC and prices reflect that. Sir, I would rather go to Dairy Queen.

If you want to buy overpriced candies and ice cream look no further! Want to get yelled at by the owner who scammed you? Look no further! The owner of this shop seemed very welcoming at first, and started suggesting items to add to our ice cream. Yeah he suggested about $20 worth for ONE Chinese takeout food container of terrible ice cream. A pint of old Ben and Jerry’s would be better than this “sweet” trip. Definitely my first and last time.
