Sweet Things Ice Cream Shoppe

"30 years ago on our way to the greenbrier from northern Virginia we stopped at Sweet things , we were so enchanted by the place the delicious smell and taste so since then made it a point to stop there , the owners were friendly and welcoming , they took a couple weeks vacation a year that is when the shop closed . We live overseas now but haven’t forgotten the best ice cream place in the world K Akail MD"

"The shop could use a little work. It's nothing special to look at and it is a little run down. I thought there would be candy sold here too based on Google pictures, but there isn't. It is just ice cream. They only take cash which is super strange since most people no longer carry cash these days. Thankfully we were traveling and I always carry a little cash on me when we do, so we were able to try their ice cream. My husband had the lemon Oreo ice cream while I opted for a mix of the chocolate peanut butter and the Reese's. My husband enjoyed his ice cream very much, but I'm not a fan of lemon so I can't judge that flavor. Mine were both ok flavors, not bad and not great. The chocolate PB lacked peanut butter chunks and basically just tasted like chocolate ice cream. The Reese's was better, but the PB cups were cut up too small to enjoy the flavor of an actual Reese's PB cup. Other than these things, the ice cream was creamy and thick. The amount received for the price was a good value. There wasn't a huge selection of flavors. I would've liked more chocolate options to choose from, but overall I would recommend this place if you have a little cash on you and are in the area."

"Small town parlor with hand mixed ice cream, homemade waffle cones (even chocolate dipped), and a candy area. The candy was fun, it had some nostalgia for me - giant jaw breakers, Coke gummies, etc. It is more pricy than the "average" ice cream cone, which makes sense because it is above average in quality and taste. Worth checking out if you have a sweet tooth. Family friendly environment. I need to go back and try a milkshake!"

"YUMMY! Tried several flavors and all were great! Eventually decided on two-scoop hot fudge sundae with lots of whipped cream. Delicious! Serving staff were energetic, cute, and helpful. Just noticed the back of the store is loaded with various candies. You have to try this place."
