I opted for the summer spritzer which is a take on the Starbucks refresher. The staff accommodated my questions and let me look at all the ingredients when I was curious if there were dyes in the syrups.

I went to get some pastries for a neighborhood function and mentioned I had never eaten anything from there, as I have been having stomach issues for a long time. This young man told me he hoped I would start feeling better soon. I thanked God for sending me there! When I'm feeling better I will most definitely go back to have a pastry and hopefully see this precious young man again. Thank you Dayton for making me feel important!! God bless you young man!!!!

Saw this on Maps after planning my trip to the beach and was so glad I was able to squeeze it in…read more It's a neat little shop with very tourist centric items for reasonable prices. There's also very cute and funny beach themed decor. I also love the fact they have books about the kindred box. While it was touristy stuff, it made me happy to see so much Carolina stuff as a long time resident of them. NC hats, SSB stuff, and even simple little toys for the kids. The lady at checkout helped me pick the right size for a sweater I wanted. If it wasn't for her telling me I could try it on in a back room I never would've gotten the appropriate size. She was very kind and down to earth. Was a nice end to my trip there.

We're diehard fans of Sunset Slush - among my family, all of us only ever get the OMG. I'm sure…read morethere's other great flavors but we just love OMG so much, we can't seem to stray from it. The shop is located off the main road of Sunset Beach along with some other shops. It is primarily an ice cream shop but also has other sweets you can buy. You can get these reusable cups that make your ice cream $1 cheaper every time you use them. If you're visiting Sunset Beach, Sunset Slush is a must. The staff is primarily high school students and they are always polite and do a great job.

We got cinnamon sugar, chocolate glazed and chocolate with sprinkles. The kids loved them and we were pleased with them as well. We love their donut concept - they are open in the morning and in the evening. In the morning they serve full sized donuts and in the evening they serve mini donuts. They're made and topped while you're in the store! Definitely worth giving them a try!

Kids loved their slushies (we'd brought our koozies from previous visits). There were so many flavors to choose from! Hubby and I opted for size medium Bluebell ice cream.
