They have really intriguing flavor combos you won't find anywhere else, as a lot of their special seasonal flavors are inspired by Chinese floral teas. You won't get that any other modern coffee place, no matter how sophisticated they are. I'd love a location in NYC, but some gems are best where they are. It gives me a reason to come back!

I thought I'd written a review about this place before but to my shock I had not…read more I have been coming here since the day they opened, infrequently beacuse I am diabetic but when I want to spoil my body with delicious sugar, honey, this is *IT*. Now I could tell you all about how perfectly tasty everything is. From the classic banana puddings (I prefer the caramel version myself,) to the cookies, to the pineapple upside-down mini cakes. Yes, I could tell you that. But I want to speak to something deeper. I want to speak to belonging and community; and to fairness. As a biracial person with a brown sister, I feel the pull to support black and brown businesses. It's not a secret. And sometimes you do it, and sometimes you privately think "Damn. I wanna be supportive but this place is a mess." Then there's Sweet Life. NOT that. FILLED with good product at a great price, delivered by owners and staff who actually give a damn about being loving and supportive to all different types of people. And did I mention the sweets are POPPIN'? And to that statement of fairness. Today I came in to place an order, and when the price came up, for a moment I thought "Damn. That is a lot higher than I remembered, but I am not about to question them. They set the price and that price is what they deserve." So I paid. But then I noticed there was more in my bag that I'd asked for, and that there had been a miscommunication. When I tell you that this miscommunication was corrected with swiftness *AND* a smile. No shade. No drama. Just an "Ooops, oh well, here's your refund on the balance." I know this seems very basic but we all know it isn't. We have all been in that awkward situation where as a customer we have to point out an error, and the vendor turns it into a Shakespearan tragedy. Not Sweet Life. "Oops. Sorry! Fixed. Love you." So, to recap: Stunningly delicious sweets. Prices fair as hell. Communicative, inclusive staff doing the right thing. You need to take those money dollers and haul your ass over here TODAY. Now...where did I put my insulin pen?

BUT! this little gem serves such a variety of pastries, it's super easy to get overwhelmed by the choices. My absolute favorite here is this braided bread situation that has raisins, a few coconut flakes, and small spots of pineapple or apricot dashed throughout the braid. It has a buttery coating, and I love it warmed up with a cup of tea or straight out of the packaging. I also love their cream buns (like a huge bun, sliced down the middle and filled to the brim with light fluffy cream). They also serve moon cakes and other things, but I'm a creature of habit and usually get the same braided bread situation I just gushed about. My sons usually get a slice of cake.

Place was nice and bright. Plenty of seating. So many things looked tasty but I got two pain aux raisins, an eclair, a merveilleux, and 4 mini choux pastries (2 for $1). The total came to $24. Pain aux raisin was good but not the best I've ever had. Would have liked them to be slightly thicker and crispier. Plenty of raisins though. Crème pâtissière was fantastic. Eclair was thin and dainty. I got this for my son as a safe bet. I tried a piece and I was so delighted to find it was filled with a chocolate pudding type of filling. The mini choux pastries were an impulse buy. I got enough for everyone in the car ride home to try. Delicious and delicate one bite treat. The merveilleux was a blind buy. Read a review that raved about it so I gave it a try. I didn't even know what to expect. It's crispy meringue covered in cream and crushed speculoos cookies. It's so heavenly! 2/3 of us liked the merveilleux the best and one of us liked the pain aux raisin the best. Come here if you're looking for something really special

The tea itself was hot and tasty. Tried the tropical oolong. A nice pot to share, and you are given a small sugar bowl as well if needed. Good flavor and stayed hot with the burner stand. Cup, saucer, and spoon all showing signs of heavy wear. The food and service was not as nice and far more average than expected. Was deciding between salmon or turkey sandwich, ended up ordering the salmon. However, the Turkey club sandwich was what I got and unfortunately nobody came back to check on us either way. It was still okay not a huge issue, though the sandwich itself was a bit of a letdown. Average quality bread and lunch meat, and the salad was browning. Felt like it's a bit downhill than expected.

They did a good job of bringing all the teas in a timely fashion. We tried the Rose Lover tea, Matcha Green Tea, and the Prince Passion Fruit Tea. I started by really liking the rose lover tea. It was a milky tea that had a rosy taste to it. After a while; however, I felt like it was too sweet. For our main apps we had twister fries which were pretty basic. We also had the fried shrimp lollipops which were very tasty. The place offered us a collection of tea sandwiches and scones and macarons. Overall, my guests didn't leave hungry. We also ordered a mango Mille crepe cake. It was cutely decorated. They put pieces of mango on top of it. The cake was a bit too sweet for my liking, however.

Do you like paying 20 dollars for a mid sandwich and being pressured to tip 5 dollars at some boujee sandwich joint? Do you HATE family values, hard working folk, and the AMERICAN DREAM? If any of those apply to you, then Sam's Fresh Spot is NOT for you. As a student pressed for cash, my initial drive to get lunch at Sams Fresh Spot was driven by their extremely AFFORDABLE prices. Although the fact that I can get a HUGE delicious Italian hoagie for $10.50 kept me interested, it was the following that has kept me coming back day after day, for years: 1. The food is just ridiculously TASTY. 2. The fact that I can get a bacon egg and cheese (cooked in front of you with fresh eggs and the highest quality meats) on an everything bagel FOR 4 DOLLARS is just insane in 2025. 3. This is a FAMILY institution. The husband and wife (who now greet me by name when I walk through the door) poor their hearts and souls into this business. 4. They CARE about you and this community. Open early at 5:30 am, they serve the hospital staff who work tirelessly to literally keep this city alive. 5. They love their customers and appreciate loyalty. I am consistently given a few pieces of candy, or some extra fruit because they APPRECIATE their patrons. 6. The food is just ridiculously TASTY (again) I'm gonna sum this up so you can stop reading this and start walking towards Sam's Fresh Spot. Your money is SO MUCH BETTER (literally gets you more food for less money) spent here than the other big business competitors such as Wawa or Primos. Your money goes into these people's business, into their family, into OUR COMMUNITY. Sam's Fresh Spot is the ONLY place to go in this neighborhood for great service, great food, great prices, and even better people behind it.
