We came here for some brunch while visiting family on a Sunday morning. It was a very quiet morning amidst the rain outside. They had just opened and we were promptly seated. Upon sitting, we were told their oven wasn't working but we can still have our foods heated. I got the California BLT, while my partner got the Grilled Chicken Pesto, each served with a bag of Lays potato chips. My sandwich was pretty good, but cold and bread was a bit dry, his chicken came out warm and juicy. All in all, it was average, good spot to chat but would have preferred my sandwich warmed up next time.

We are sitting in Sweet Creams waiting over an hour for our sandwiches. At the 1/2 hour mark they asked if we wanted to order , it is obvious they forgot our order and are totally unapologetic.. I would not recommend this based on the attitude and lack of caring.
Addition they screwed up
The orderHelpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jesse M.Stroudsburg, PA0201Jan 20, 2023
Don't ask questions, and don't bother reading any more reviews. This is where you want to eat today. The service is great, they have something for everyone, and everything is delicious. It's just a liiiiiiiittle pricey, but its great for lighter fare. They have sandwiches that are killer, coffee drinks for all types, and a whole litany of other food items that rock. I'm always so busy with the menu I forget that they have numerous exotic flavors of homemade ice cream. The room feels very intimate and cozy, but on busy days can feel a little small.
My personal favorite is the Smokey Mountain Croissant, a London Fog with almond milk, and the seasonal rose and lavender ice creams.
Just do it. Go here, you will be happy.Helpful 2Thanks 1Love this 1Oh no 0 - Jun 27, 2021
Ice cream is among the best. Very special. Even the chocolate chips in the mint chip tasted special.
The gentleman (guessing proprietor?) was there by himself in what used to be a dining-room turned storage/renovation project during covid (guessing). He was only taking orders through a sliding glass window like some kind of ice-cream pushing street dealer. He was also handling a larger food order so kindly shooed us away from the front of the store for thirty minutes while he worked on it. First reaction "ugh!", second reaction "if there's a wait there's a reason". We walked around town and went back in thirty minutes. The menus are taped in the window panes on 8x11 papers. They had a selection of by the scoop/sundae/shakes, and a longer list by the pint for take away. Since this place was so challenging to get an order in, we ended up adding on a few more things to the ice cream order - like a fig "pizza" (kinda a flatbread) and Arnold palmers, it was a hot day and they were refreshing. It might have been fresh squeezed lemon juice. And added some dog ice cream since my dogs are my babies now that kids are in camp. The dog ice creams (bananas, cream, peanut butter) were frozen solid even by the time we made it back to my friends house 20 minutes away. Food all looked interesting.
This gem is a little advertising and an employee or two away if it can find good people from being a destination worth the trip. But for now, it's quirks are just fine. I have to imagine the pandemic criminally crippled a gem like this so I am happy spending whatever I can to help with a turnaround. Looking forward to making a few trips if I can make it there during the odd hours it's able to open.Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 4Oh no 0 - Alyssa S.PA, PA01Oct 1, 2023

A quiet, friendly, casual hideaway with imaginative ice cream, neighborhood charm and lots of comfort food on the menu.
Background and first impressions:
We visited as a family in early March (before the pandemic announcement) and were welcomed in in the later afternoon, when there were few people around and when it was a little chilly outside. The interior is really cozy and charming, and we felt at home - the lady at the cash register near the front confirmed with us that we were eating in, and she showed us a nice table for the six of us. Our waitress (super nice, with glasses) came by to drop off the menus and gave us some time to think.
Menus and food:
We were hungry from hiking around the Poconos area, and the menus listed lots of options! My parents are vegetarians, and our waitress was happy to point out their options. We split some appetizers (the loaded nachos are incredible, the cheese dip was delicious), got a hot or cold drink each (the dollops of whipped cream on top of the hot chocolates are generous and tall!), and a sandwich (came with chips and some pickles) each.
The food was fresh, the greens were crunchy as the chips, and everything delicious and easy to put away. At the end even though we were stuffed, the ice cream flavors were too interesting to pass up - our server suggested we get the sampler platter where we can all share little scoops of SIX flavors!
Dessert:
We all were able to enjoy the ice cream at the end of our meal, and when the server asked us which was our favorite, we realized most of us chose a different favorite from each other, which just goes to show how good the ice cream is that there truly is something for everyone. (my favorite was the pistachio.)
In conclusion:
Although it was a slower time of the day and the sun was setting, we never felt rushed and yet also felt very much taken care of. We didn't mention it at the time but we were in town to celebrate my father's 60th birthday, and he surely enjoyed this part of the weekend as a great memory.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Aug 30, 2019
Warm Saturday afternoon, decided to cool off with some sweet treats at this cafe. Small storefront that includes a few tables and chairs outside as well as seating inside.
Didn't want anything too heavy, so ordered the Affogato ($5.25) - a combination of espresso, vanilla ice cream, and whipped cream all in a to-go cup. Coffee is certainly bitter, helped by the sweetness of the other two ingredients. Wish there was more ice cream overall, seemed like I was left with a lot of whipped cream and coffee halfway into the dessert.
Overall fine spot, think I would opt for just ice cream the next time around.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - 296163119Mar 28, 2021
Sweet Creams has wonderful and healthy lunch items in a fun environment, which usually includes some great art.
The staff is always wonderful and quite speedy.
Their ice cream is home-made and changes regularly, though the flavors sometimes take a back seat to the sugar. However, their sundae's are incredible and are highly recommended.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Samantha W.Plainsboro Township, NJ116Sep 17, 2022

I went in and ordered a very simple sandwich for takeout. "It shouldn't take too long," said the counterperson. There were two couples already seated at tables and were waiting for food. After about ten minutes, I asked where my sandwich was. (There were three people working in the kitchen in addition to the counterperson.) "There are orders ahead of you," I was told. Now, I've been in the food/restaurant industry for many years. That's like saying you can't pour a cup of coffee until after the turkey is done in the oven! Any kitchen managing onsite and takeout orders at the same time knows this. I waited another ten minutes for a pretty basic, not very good, sandwich. I won't be back.
