You have to go to GO! Except for Ice Cream, which may be ingenious, I was her sweets from lang.long.ago. I spent over $30.00 for HUGE quantity of candy from 1960.... YUM.. and yes owner had to use JARs... It is really easy to find it is small, but it is the white building and it is great to go there, owner will be extremely friendly...but stop and ENJOY your shopping, and friendship I go back for every vacation, Hollowe and Christmas....

Here for a chocolate malt and it was an amazingly tasting malt. I'll try other sweet treats again.

I've been in this candy store for 10 years. That should speak for itself. If not, I say more: I love chocolate malt. Every place I go has it, I always command one. SweetSpot makes most INCREDIBLE malt I've ever had, and not even in 10 years it's less than amazing! I took a friend a few months ago and told them that the malt was the best and she was skeptical. Had a sip and said it was 50/10. But if you are not in malt, there are many other things to love. You have the widest variety of candy I've ever seen in a shop, and some types of candy I haven't seen anywhere else for 15 years, not to mention soda in real glass bottles! Good luck finding in your local grocery store! It seems impossible to find a real *candy* shop more, unlike a shop with a candy area. If you're in the area, SweetSpot is a must visit. I'm going away for a few hours tomorrow, but you can be sure that I come back every time, I'll stop here for a malt!

We love this place. I take my kids here when we drop off my client. The owner is awesome. Super friendly. Are you looking for old style candy? This is the place. They got candy from the 70’s and 80’s. I felt like a kid again. Their ice cream is great. Check it out. You won’t be disappointed.

Yesterday flew to SweetSpot tent at the Polo match! They had all the sweets that were thought of from novelties to current new favorites. They also had ice cream, Italian ice cream, porcelain, nachos funnel cake. I've been in the shop too many times and they have even more sweet treats there. Definitely stop by and support this great local business!!
