Sweets Ice Cream is worth the hype! And worth a trip to Erie for a sweet treat! They have the cutest little shop, an excellent selection of delicious flavors, and sprinkles are ALWAYS free (as they should be)! When we went there was one guy working solo and somehow still managing to get through the line quickly with unwavering patience, kindness, and a smile on his face! The best part is that all their flavors are from local ice cream makers like Little Man and Glacier Ice Cream, highlighting Colorado flavors and products! Don't be turned away by the fact that the cookie monster flavor is blue, it's delicious no matter what age you are! read more

Huge shoutout to the guy working on Valentine's Day. We showed up about 20 minutes before opening and were trying to explain to our 2-year-old that we'd have to wait. He saw us, opened early, and welcomed us in with such a great attitude. In a world where it can feel like people are just doing the bare minimum, it was so refreshing to see a teenager go above and beyond. He made our day--and he's clearly going places! read more

Craving a late night sugar rush? This is your place. Nice variety of ice cream flavors that really hit the spot. I tried a combo of the Funky Donkey and Homestead Crunch. Both were packed full of complex flavors and the ice cream was the perfect texture. I liked both but I am a sucker for Toffee and Butter Pecan ice cream. It was really good and had a decent amount of toffee bits, pecans, and fudge. Highly recommend it. This shop is so inviting from the outside and the inside host great treats and a very friendly staff. read more

This is located on a fun block of local stores/restaurants/bars in Erie. On my Saturday visit the place was crazy busy. It seems to be THE SPOT to go if you want to encounter local parents and their kids. Everyone loves ice cream, right!? The ice cream shop is connected to a bar next door, which I found interesting. In any event, it is a very small venue inside with very few tables (3?). BUT, they do have several tables outside. They have limited ice-cream flavors (15+), but they are all delicious. The flavors tend to rotate and are made fresh. On this particular night it was understaffed, but huge props to the Colorado student who was calmly keeping things together. The store is cute in nature with a pink/white motif, most important, you will easily address your yearning for ice cream. read more

Sweets Ice Cream - Family oriented ice cream shop which is loved by the locals. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Erie, Colorado

Great ice cream and great staff too I will always go there when I feel like some ice cream

My first time here, long line on a Saturday night. I wish they had a few more dairy free options for others I know. I tried the double chocolate and moon pie in a waffle cone, darn good stuff. Its a small little shop and overall standard looking place. You can sit inside or out. They have a nice variety of rotating flavors and prices seemed fairly standard. read more

We have been to this place many times and LOVE their ice cream. While we have always had good experiences there, I have to say tonight was super impressive. There was only one employee working tonight (2/28/25), and she handled the extremely long line like a BOSS! when we walked in, the line was at least 6 families deep and growing. She didn't panic, stayed calm and perky and just dug in and worked with a smile on her face. As a manager in a completely different industry, she is my ideal employee. Sweets is lucky to have her! read more

The quality of the ice cream here is amazing!! The only things are that you have to wait a long time, and they give you very small portions for like 5 bucks. Overall the ambiance is great though. I love Sweets! read more

If you are ever in Erie, you HAVE to go here. Their flavors are delicious and the quality of the ice cream is INSANE! I don't know that I've ever had better ice cream....... read more

Four words. Salted Peanut Butter Cup. OMG. Can I get this by the gallon? It was incredible as was the Salted Oreo. Big fan of sweets ice cream after pizza next door at the Old Mine. Fun little shop that's line moved quickly even before the free concert last night. read more

Cute and clean ice cream shop with a good variety of flavors. Unknowingly caught them as they were closing up, but staff was very friendly and accommodating. Looking forward to going back and trying more flavors. read more

What can I say - incredible ice cream, flavors and service. We love having this special little spot in Erie. Every experience has been delicious and makes us wonder why we didn't just spurge for the pint...which we did once and got 2! It's no secret the ice cream and service is awesome...they are always busy and always quick to serve! Salted Oreo for life!! read more

The salted oreo is the best flavor they have; although, they ran out of it this week. Please stock back up That flavor is by far the best

This is our family's go-to for any ice cream craving! We've been several times and have never had less than a 5-star experience. They have a vegan salted Oreo flavor that is to die for!!! read more

Portions are a little small here so I'll keep that in mind when coming here. The ice cream is really good though, the atmosphere is nice and the staff is nice and inviting. read more

Have lived in Erie for 2 years and slept on this plane for far too long! Love the ice cream selection, they carry various ice cream brands like Little Man and other local CO companies. I also love that they post their flavors daily on their Instagram page! Only reasoning for 4 instead of 5 stars is that they often run out of flavors and don't have more and their hours are pretty limited. read more

Just heard of this place! And super glad I did! Just a small little ice cream shop in old Erie. Best part is they have Little Man's ice cream!! Yum!! Highly recommend! read more

So good!! It was pretty busy which is a good sign. Located right in downtown Erie. You can sample however many you want and there are some great unique flavors. Decent prices too! Very kid friendly and fun atmosphere. read more

Ooooh!!! My favorite is death by chocolate!!!! The best ice cream. Great staff, so friendly. Lucky to have them in Erie! read more

Cute little shop in Old Town Erie, next to the Old Mine Cidery. Seating is very limited, but that should not stop you from trying their yummy ice cream. We went after dinner at the Cidery next door and they offer a dozen of flavours, all of them very tempting. I loved the Toffee Coffee! And if you are not in the mood for ice cream, they offer a selection of coffee concoctions. read more

5 stars for me! This is the second location of Sweets Ice Cream, I haven't gone to the original but this local spot completely satisfied my cravings. Free parking, a bike rack, friendly faces and most importantly 12 flavors of ice cream- all from Little Man Ice Cream in Denver. What sets Sweets apart is their inclusion of vegan I've cream - whether you choose to get vegan or have a dairy intolerance this is key to serving all members of the community. Don't be scared to try all the flavors that interest you buy I'd recommend the Salted Oreo or Salted Peanut Butter, and you can't go wrong with vanilla! read more

Love this place. You get the best of both Glacier and Littleman in one shop. The staff is friendly and the shop is clean. Love having Sweets in Erie read more

Adorable ice cream shop that is delicious and fun for the whole family. And THANK YOU for being so thoroughly accommodating of kids with food allergies. It's now 1 in 13 kids - being able to enjoy a sweet treat out with your friends and family (even if you're allergic to dairy, nuts, wheat, etc) is a HUGE deal to tiny people. :) read more

Food is good enough. Prices are high for what you get. It seems like the people who work here are straight up jerks or simply dislike their jobs. One younger lady who definitely hates her job and doesn't care, and an older lady that makes me not want to support. Two ladies walked in and the older lady looked them up and down before welcoming them in. Just overall bad service from the people that work here. read more

It's a favorite spot after school. My grandkids always find a flavor they like in a cone or cup.

You can always find a delicious new flavor at Sweets! The portions are good and the kids love it. They have limited people in the store with COVID-19 precautions and plenty of outdoor seating. read more

Small little ice cream shop, with about 15 or so flavors, and a couple of vegan options (if you're into that sorta thing). Basic toppings of hot fudge, whip cream and sprinkles, and a few cone options too. Overall a decent little shop, about $3 for a single scoop so pretty cheap. Ice cream was good, nothing I'd crave but worth the money. read more

Sweets Ice Cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Erie, Colorado

This place is magic! Always a great assortment of flavors! I find the prices reasonable for the quality of ice cream you receive . Twice we accidentally came in on a day when they offered a special. On Mother's Day they offered free ice cream to moms. On national ice cream day it was buy, one get one . We don't live in Erie but we are always up for the small trip. read more

We are big ice cream lovers, I mean who isn't? We've been to Sweet Cow and Sweets and Eats. So how does Sweets compare? On par! Great atmosphere - lots of seating. Little flowers on the tables. Funky and hip. Glacier ice cream - we are fans of the Boulder ice cream company (also the same ice cream at Sweets and Eats). Homemade breakfast burritos, lunch options and treats! The gluten free and dairy free fudge cookie is so good! Will be back! read more

The service here was absolutely amazing. There are two handsome boys, Jaxon and Zach, that helped us and they were absolutely incredible. Great ice cream and even greater service!! read more

Insanely expensive!! Took my grandchildren there for a scoop in dish. Walked out with sticker shock. C'mon, it's just ice cream! Plus, doesn't seem to be a mask policy. Place is too small to not have patrons wear masks. For the prices you charge, you can afford to pass out free ones read more

A great local ice cream spot in downtown Erie. Their flavors were delicious, vegan options included!! They have a few indoor and outdoor seats, and people are very kind to not overcrowd the front area. Can't wait to go back to Sweets! read more

Best ice cream around. I love the funky donkey and strawberry. Really good ice cream. Update Feb 2018: Sweets now serves Little Man Ice Cream. I tried this for the first time today, and it is still just as good. The flavors are different, so no more funky donkey, but the salted Oreo was very delicious. The remodel connecting to the Old Mine is very inviting. Go here, you won't be disappointed. read more

My husband had the blueberry shortcake in 2018 when visiting a friend and when we came back in 2019, he was looking forward to it again. They didn't have it but they had a delicious replacement of raspberry love and I had the funky donkey. That is one kick-ass funky donkey (see what I did there??) don't take my horrible joke as a reason to avoid this place. Every flavor we ha e chosen has been DELICIOUS. Enjoy! read more

We went to Sweets tonight to celebrate my daughter's 4th birthday, the girl behind the counter was so kind and went out of her way to make my daughter feel special by bringing her a special treat covered in sprinkles. In short, the ice cream is good, and the service is great! read more

Scoops were not packed into cones well and fell out. This happened to us and people in line behind us too. Get a cup !

A great addition to old town Erie. Sweets is great local establishment the doesn't fit into a typical coffee shop/restaurant "box". Want a quick burrito or coffee cake with your morning coffee? Done. Awesome sandwich for lunch? Done. Desert after a tasty dinner in Erie? Done. Cinnamon rolls are amazing and the locally sourced coffee is solid. My personal favorite is the smothered breakfast burrito in the morning and a cinnamon roll in the evening. A great place to get some work done in the morning. read more

Love the half scopes. Although they are still big. Great flavors. Sometimes just cant do the dairy so love that they have indulgent non dairy flavors. read more

Great local spot! Icecream is good, staff is always friendly and they always have a lot of flavors to choose from!

What a cute ice cream / coffee place! They have about 12 or so flavors of ice cream, full espresso bar, pastries, and a small selection of sandwiches on the menu. The husband and I opted for ice cream (cookies & cream and cookie dough) and two coffees. The gals working there couldn't have been more friendly. The place has exposed brickwork, lots of seating and a variety of board games. It looks really welcoming to come here and stay awhile. We sat out front and enjoyed our ice cream with our dog. Small town feel and highly recommended. read more
