Sweet Spot

The food here is a solid 10!! I have driven past this location many times, and never even knew that…read moreit was where it is. It was a very pleasant surprise after learning about this business and stopping in to sample their amazing dishes! OMG!! What an amazing array of food on the menu! Less is better, and what they do is absolutely amazing! I was not able to eat the entire burrito at the first sitting, so I've had to finish it the next evening! The burrito was HUGE and so very good! Everything here is made fresh and from scratch. The staff and crew and extremely pleasant and patient. They are wonderful and I am seriously looking forward to my next visit here!

I heard this place has THE best Mexican food in Deland, so I was exited to try it. I thought it…read morewas just a food truck type of spot, but it was actually a market with a little bit of everything, including hot food and ice cream. My wife and I arrived and tried to find parking in the lot, but it was very small with lots of vehicles parked all over, so we went to the side of the building and that's when I saw the food truck. It looked operable with outdoor seating, but no menu. So we parked in the grass area and went inside the market. The inside is much larger than it appears from the outside. The back area has some tables to dine-in and it a small section more towards the back has homemade ice cream! Onto the food.....they have a large menu with lots of options. Picture ALL of your favorite Mexican foods and then some! We tried the 5 street tacos with Jibarito (drink) special for $13.50. We added a couple of supreme tacos, a plate of refried beans and yellow rice, and a tamale. Note: We ordered chicken for the tacos and tamale. While the chicken was just ok, I would imagine that any other meat would have tasted better. Everything came out to about $25 and tasted good. Surprising, the best part were the refried beans, which is a first for me because those are usually afterthoughts at every other place I've been. So the verdict is in....is Crystal THE best Mexican food in Deland? No, but it's pretty solid. It reminded me of a gas station version of Garcia's down the street.

It tasted like fresh blueberries absolutely loved it. We both got two waffle cones. My Husband had two scoops, one being the blueberry cheesecake and the other one being the cappuccino crunch. The cappuccino crunch also had bold flavors with a really great crunch added in. We don't live in the area, but we had dinner out there in Deland and saw this place driving by so we stopped in to give it a try so happy that we did because this could definitely easily become our new favorite ice cream place because the flavoring was so delicious They are busy they have a drive-through and they have a walk-in when we got there. There's a line of like six people. It didn't take long and when we were leaving, there is another line of roughly 10 people. The lady who took our order was super friendly, told us that we can try whatever flavors we wished because they do have some rotating flavors 10 out of 10 would definitely try again.

There was lots of candies that I haven't seen in along time. This shop has one of the longest fresh chocolate cases I've seen. There was so much fudge options and other goodies.

Talk about a bait and switch. If the cake is not going to look like the picture or if it might look different, you should probably indicate that right on your website.

The Sweet Spot has easily become part of my weekly routine, I find myself and my family stopping in frequently, and I'm always looking forward to it. The rotating specials are what really set this place apart. There's always something new and creative to try, and it keeps every visit feeling fresh. It's one of those spots where you actually get excited to see what's on the menu next. The ice cream is clearly made with care and quality ingredients, and you can taste the difference. Some flavors stand out more than others, but the overall consistency, creativity, and effort behind what they're doing more than earns the five stars. If you like trying new flavors and want a place that keeps things interesting, this is absolutely worth making a regular stop. read more

My family and I have been going to Sweet Spot for more than 10 years. Their homemade ice cream, no matter which flavor I choose, is always so good. They use quality ingredients and come up with some of the most delicious and creative flavors. My favorite is Chocolate Salted Toffee. There's always plenty of salted toffee to go with the chocolate ice cream. The staff is always smiling and eager to serve you the best ice cream in town!! read more

You can mix and match the ice cream scoops to your fancy, and the pricing is super reasonable. They also GIVE YOU A LOT. In fact, the small cup I had could have been shared with someone. As for the ice cream selection I settled on, I went with their boozy option for the Bailey's Ice Cream. While the Bailey's flavoring was subtle, it was still quite tasty. I should have paired it with Buttered Pecan, but I only did one flavor. I enjoyed it, though. On my next visit to Daytona, I will be SURE to visit Cherry Hill Ice Cream Cafe. I'd like to try a few of their other offerings.
