I love this place so much! I already really like local spots, and this one genuinely has delicious ice cream. They switch up their options regularly, so it's always different and interesting. The interior is cute and fun too. They have some outdoor seating, and they even have a little party room. I've never tried their sandwiches or any other food, but would like to sometime. The staff is always helpful and friendly. read more

Sweet Thang & Cafe - Hot Fudge Sundae - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Olathe, Kansas

My girlfriend's family really enjoys coming here, so I've been here a good amount now. The people working are always friendly in my experience. They let you try any flavor you want so you can make sure you pick the right one. I really liked the brownie and ice cream thing, you get two scoops with a warm brownie. Although the plastic carrier leaves a little to be desired, it was still really good. They also have these cards you can stamp to get free ice-cream every certain amount of visits. The inside is pretty cramped for seating but there's some additional outside. read more

All flavors made in-house! Quaint ice cream shop with sandwiches too. I've only had the ice cream - various seasonal flavors.

Ice cream and survice is great! Check them out and bring a friend or two. Coffee Latte my absolute favorite, they a nice variety of flavors. Something for everyone. If you want to have a cool ice cream party check out the private room. Either way you won't be disappointed. read more

Service was amazing and ice cream was even better! I will definitely be coming back if in the area.

My husband and I visited this place on our first date. We loved the options of ice cream and toppings. They allowed samples prior to making a selection, which is standard for an ice cream shop. The people were cool; I don't recall any issues or any outstanding service. I did like it we could sit outside and have some privacy while enjoying our treats. read more

When I travel, I usually search for some local gem to visit. This trip did not disappoint. I loved the cuteness of this place. It has a side that serves ice cream and sweet treats and one side where you can host a cute little party. When I arrived I was greeted very cheerfully and warmly, though it was the end of their work day. I had the privilege of tasting several ice cream flavors and none of them disappointed. In the end, though I ended up choosing a chocolate chip malt which was an absolutely delicious decision. I'll definitely revisit this cute and quaint shop when I'm in the area again! read more

A vast array of ice cream flavors, not sure what you want? They will give you samples to try and help you decide. They also serve sandwiches and coffee. They have a party room for your birthday parties. I especially love their banana split! You're always greeted with a smiling, cheerful associate. The place is bright and cheery and usually very clean unless they had a huge rush and people just left the table. Oh and they have amazing baked goods as well. I love their crinkle lemon cookies! Great place for a snack or treat after dinner. And they stay open late! read more

Great service, friendly!! Clean atmosphere and get the Strawberry crinkle cookie for a delightful surprise!!! read more

Great small business. The staff and owner are so friendly and nice. The sandwiches are good and a huge variety of ice cream and sweets!

Really excellent independently owned spot staffed by cheerful and friendly people who will make sure you find your favorite sweet treat. Everything here is good and the service is really amazing. Highly recommended! read more

Best kept secret in Olathe! Amazing big scoops of delicious ice cream! Cozy environment and welcoming staff!

Fantastic locally owned home made ice cream store that does a great job of hiring local high school students as employees. The service is fast and friendly. They also have some really good baked goods such as brownies and cookies. read more

Girls working the counter were rude and non welcoming. Gave dirty looks and are definitely mean girls. Plus ice cream was mid

Very good selection of ice cream (I especially love the RUM RAISIN - it's my go-to) but they also have really tasty sandwiches and cookies and cupcakes. The smell of fresh baked waffle cones as you enter is very inviting, and I've always had great service from the staff, who work so hard to make the experience a good one. It surely must get tiring handing out ice cream taste samples to customers (Me: "Can I try that one? How about that one?") , but you'd never know it from their friendly smiles and great attitudes. Highly recommend! read more

Delicious, fun, tasty! The frozen milkshake in a keepsake mug is life altering!!!! I highly recommend the citrus version of this with lemon flavoured ice cream. When I go back I'll try to remember to update this review for accuracy. Highly recommend!!!! read more

So I ordered two coffee drinks online and first time trying this place before. The staff is all teenagers so do with that what you will. Drinks were OK but we ordered like an extra shot and some special stuff and I guarantee you we did not get it. The drinks were definitely not worth the money. It was nothing special, if you're really wanting a coffee drink go to a coffee shop, I wanted to support a local place but I'm not gonna give them $17 for two bland coffee drinks especially when we didn't get what we paid for. Plus the staff did not care about us being in the shop. read more

Super delish ice cream! And coffee options! The kids love coming here. Also great staff that are patient with the girls and their indecisiveness. Come grab a cone you won't regret it. read more

Sweet Thang came through for us tonight!!!! We walked in and were blown away with all the selections and the nice treat of a sandwich menu too. My raw berry truffles with dark chocolate cups totally blew me away... it was the perfect blend of fruit and chocolate in a cold treat. I also had a small scoop of cookies and cream.... super delicious. I can't even tell you what my wife had except that one of the scoops had something to do with Snickers.... I got a small taste and loved it. The staff were super helpful, friendly, and were going out of their way to engage customers and ensure they had a good experience. We will definitely be back to try more flavors and enjoy this gem during the hot summer months. Try it out.... it's great!!! read more

We're having a business meeting close by and everyone felt like ice cream after dinner. We live close by, so we recommended our favorite local spot Sweet Thang. Everyone else was from out of town and they all loved it. One of my colleagues from Texas got the Mexican Hot chocolate flavor (as did I) and she said it was some of the best ice cream she's had. I would absolutely agree! There 2 girls working and they could have gotten extremely overwhelmed by the 15 of us that walked in at the same time, but they didn't. They were awesome!! Great experience for everyone! Keep it up Sweet Thang! read more

Once again this place is amazing. Such great ice cream. The young gal on Saturday evening was the nicest and very helpful. You can tell she likes what she does. Keep up the great job. Number one ice cream place in the metro read more

We enjoyed our first trip to Sweet Thang, and I definitely appreciate the level of effort the owners and staff are doing to make this place kick off. Coming in on a hot Saturday evening, the line was nearly out the door so I'm sure that's a good sign that they found an untapped location. Walking in, the atmosphere is almost overwhelming in a good Charlie and the Chocolate Factory kind of way but naturally, it can be hard to hear the staff over the chatter of the patrons. It'd be unfair to try to compare this place with some of the more established parlors around the city since I think they are still working to find their groove. But ultimately, while the ice cream was tasty and cold, it was a bit too difficult to feel comfortable sitting there with my family. Coming in, you get first see a wall of flavors. Unfortunately, I think most patrons are conditioned to interpret that that "what's on the wall is what we have". After perusing the flavors for a minute and about to settle on a game plan, I was told that some flavors are rotated. While that is understandable, you sort of get disappointed to hear that if you had a particular one in mind. We settled on: -Apple Strudel - very tasty, not too sweet - Red-White-Blue - leaves your tongue patriotically painted, kid-approved. - Strawberry Swirl - this one had chocolate flakes and strangely-enough, didn't taste like strawberry. My little one isn't yet ready for her big sister's flavors so I was just hoping for plain strawberry flavor. Unfortunately, they didn't have plain strawberry so that kind of challenged it. If they're rotating flavors, perhaps they'll want to consider the basic three as fixed. Some other things I hope they can look at improving: - Although I'm sure it's more on the building-owner side, the airflow felt limited, and I wished it wafted a nice smell of dessert flavors as opposed. - I appreciate the bold color scheme of the walls and decor; however with so much royal blue, purple, etc; it does come off as a little dark to see. Some vibrant lighting will help drive those "social media" snaps. - A few things felt out of place and probably just got overlooked during the chaos, specifically there was a large tub of Rubbermaid storage containers just sitting next to the check-out counter at eye-level (unless they meant for those to be some decent to-go boxes). read more

We walked in and everyone welcomed us. One of the employees asked if it had been my first time and when I said yes, she explained the menu more in depth. They offer soups, salads, and sandwiches along side 60+ flavors. Their ice cream is imported from Florida and my favorite is Cookies & Cream. I was able to sample several varieties including strawberry cheesecake, coffee, orange creamsicle. What really impressed me was the Superman flavor. I haven't seen that kind in years! There are even dairy free and gluten free options!! The only down side? There's a LOT of wall decor. So much that it's a little hard to focus on one thing. Overall, their ice cream is delicious! I'm not exaggerating when I say the cookies & cream was some of the best kind I've ever had. Yes read more

I saw this place on Junque Drawer's social media post and had to try it. SO delicious. We had some samples and couldn't decide-all the flavors are fabulous. Ended up with a chocolate almond in a waffle cone. The waffle cone is so crisp and delicious. Everyone in the store treated us so well. They even let us sample some cotton candy! Even though this is a small trek for us, it's completely worth it!! read more

Great, friendly service! Yummy ice cream and lots of flavor choices. Our favorite is to try the seasonal specials.

Sweet little local business. The dairy-free options are a little "eh", but the fact that there ARE options is nice. The rest of my family loved the ice cream though. :) read more

Stopped by on a break with my coworkers and am obsessed! The owner was so warm and friendly and even let us sample ice cream which meant so much to me. Plus the prices here are so affordable. I had a split-single (basically 2 scoops) for $4.65 and a waffle cone. I am excited to work so close to here now! They sell lunch and snacks too. Hello, new home! read more

We love Sweet Thangs. They have a flavor for everyone in the family and their serving size is perfect for the money you pay. The service is always amazing. They have shields up and have you go down the ice cream bar in a certain order to make sure you social distance. read more

They have great ice cream with an interesting variety of flavors. I like the kinds with berries or fruit, but there are plenty of others. The staff is also friendly and helpful. read more

Quite the friendly staff. It was my first visit, and I went there based on the yelp reviews. It reminded me of a true small town ice cream place. We got two shakes, the traditional and then a chocolate. Both were really good! They have some really unique ice cream flavors, i.e. chocolate with blueberries and acai. I will be going back to try some of those. read more

Great place! Super friendly will be sure to go back! Lots of options on the menu as well.

The ice cream was great! Lots of flavors to choose from, and it's not your basic stuff either. Staff is not the most attentive but it was overall a good experience. read more

Delicious treats, helpful staff, and prices commensurate with similar businesses. Will be back!

Such a great neighborhood ice cream shop. The owners are super friendly and always have a smile for you when you enter. The single scoop ice cream is the size of a double scoop and the banana split is nothing less than a masterpiece. read more
