The lines barely moved and there were longgggg lines and such confusion :( FYI- *cash only ** The flavors we all picked didn't seem as special and enjoyable. I don't think we would wait again those extremely disorganized lines that were all over in zig zags with no structure. While I/ we enjoyed talking to others in line- everyone was constantly making jokes about what was going on and where the lines formed and all. Way too much confusion for us and we all agreed on plenty of other places to go next time. Also, a bunch of flavors were not available and the signs did not reflect that so some of us couldn't get what flavors we wanted. After waiting 30 + minutes we all left frustrated, unhappy, and dissatisfied with our ice cream. :(

Parts of this restaurant, actually reminded me of my friend's Mémère's homes along with the wonderful treats and meals. They definitely have a wonderful breakfast menu that is simple and so very satisfying. The bacon - perfection. The pancakes, delicious and filling. The blueberry crumb/coffee cake - moist and delicious. If I had one criticism...it would be the tiny far of maple syrup - not the right ratio, with the size of pancakes they offer. It's ok. I was able to take leftover pancakes home...they reheated really well and I have plenty of Maine maple syrup at home. As part of the restaurant (or vice versa) there is a connected store - which sells almost ever candy imaginable. We love the 12+ different flavors - they are fresh, so it's best to eat them within a week before they start to take on the taste of the wrapper. They are very tender pieces of taffy - not too hard. Makes them really easy to eat - very dangerous LOL This is definitely one of my favorite places in York. I can't wait to return before the start of the next tourist season. Parking is street or in lots about a block/across the street - pay for parking. Download the app in advance.

They have updated their sign to just say shaved ice, so hopefully, Google will update soon. It's shaved ice in the front and a skate shop in the back. There is a list of flavors to choose from and I ended up getting strawberry and pineapple in a flower cup. The ice is very soft, fluffy, and melts quickly. The syrup flavorings are drizzled on and will make it's way down to the bottom of your cup. It's not overly sweet, so you don't feel gross after it. It comes with straws for you to sip up your refreshing ice as you walk down the shops of downtown york. If you're looking for something cool and sweet for the afternoon and you don't want ice cream, shave ice is the way to go!

They have plenty of parking and a good sized menu of ice cream options. Sometimes an ice cream shop tries to be more than just an ice cream shop which can make a menu a confusing and overwhelming. Mrs & me focuses on what they do best, which is ice cream so I appreciate the straightforward menu and the tasty ice cream. The girls who work here are also super friendly and very helpful. I do recommend if you're in the area and looking for a simple scoop of home made ice cream.

Now, you may be asking, for a meh review, why 4 stars? I will tell you, the blueberry scones. Come early before the sell out. They are amazing and I believe made fresh on site too.

This store has never asked a kid to leave ever, I have never seen such a grumpy old obnoxious individual since the 80s, and I've been coming here for the last 30 years with my children and now my grandchildren. They always go out of their way to make sure everybody is accommodated and they even set up face painting and tattoos for the kids outside. This is a very welcoming store to all and a family candy store in downtown York Beach, Maine. Considering you came in so hot with that hat on and you were definitely trying to make a political statement in a candy store that caters to families.

I'm not familiar with the area, and when I saw what looked like either another candy store right next door or possibly an extension of Sweet Josie's, I casually asked the woman behind the counter if the two stores were affiliated. Not only was my question ignored the first time, but when I asked again, I was actually called "rude" for asking about another business. I was shocked and completely taken aback, especially with my son standing right next to me. Needless to say, I left the items I was about to purchase on the counter, walked out, and went into the candy store next door. The difference was night and day. The woman behind that counter was professional and helpful, and the store itself was immaculate. Unfortunately, the same could not be said for Sweet Josie's. Many of the candy bins were half empty, several contained a mishmash of different candies, and the chocolates behind the glass were not particularly impressive. Customer service matters, and this experience was enough for me to take my business elsewhere. If you're looking for a better experience, I'd recommend going next door to Sweet York Beach. I was greeted immediately, the store was clean & organized, with a great variety of candy & chocolates.

One of the party had a chocolate coffee nugget (chocolate ice cream with chocolate covered espresso beans) and the other person had orange vanilla pineapple. They were both very good: large portions, very creamy and no ice crystals. I am becoming suspicious though that several of the ice cream places in Ogunquit and Wells are all using the same supplier. Next summer I am going to try to figure that out-- although I'll probably come away from that endeavor weighing ten pounds heavier than when I arrive! Enjoy your time in Maine!
