This was a fun little impromptu stop. The atmosphere was nice, and the employees were polite and patient. Prices were on the higher end, which would have been fine if the products reflected that, but they didnt. I was excited to order an old-fashioned chocolate malt, but it didnt taste like malt at all. Was basically a chocolate shake. My husband ordered a root beer float, and while the root beer was mixed the old fashioned way at the time of ordering, which was fun, it just wasnt very good. My sons waffle cone of hard-scooped icecream was delicious. It was fun to try once, but I doubt we will be back.
Sweet Moses is super cute. Its like walking back in time to a more simple time. The store looks like youre in the 1950s. The staff is really nice and friendly. They have a candy counter with lots of kinds of bark and other chocolates. I think the best part is the sundaes. They were amazing and HUGE. Such fresh ingredients and well-made. I def recommend this place.
They are really going out with a bang. Working hard like theres no end in sight. I should know. They cut off the line at 9:45, I arrived at 9:50. There were 80ppl in line! And they still let me in. Such good kids, somebody please hire them after the weekend! So glad I came to patronize and say goodbye to Sweet Moses
I was here with my grandkids for the last time. I was told about this place in 2012 from a driver that took me and my sick sister to her Dr s appointment and we promise the that we would try it out. She pass in November 2012 but me and the grandkids have been here 3 times plus my daughter had a date here so this has history we bought plenty and took pictures 📸 for each child s photo album will tell about this place ❤. Sweet Moses 😋 you will forever be miss.
Has some of the best ice cream that Ive ever tasted its one of my favorite go to places when Im at work
Really cool, classic soda fountain shop. Ice cream treats and soda were top notch. Not sure if its still COVID embers, but everything served in paper cups with plastic spoons or plastic cups, but oddly, paper straws. Plus there were still some stay back areas marked. Overall though, a great experience, and well be back.
Searching for a sweet treat for that sweet tooth craving?Well this is the place for you!What a terrific way to spend a memory from days gone by.Sweet Moses Soda Fountain is a gem of a find from ice cream sodas to ice cream sundaes hand dipped chocolate pretzels, traditional ice cream cones, taffy, chocolates, and french press coffee.They have a little sweet treat for everyone.
This is a period appropriate ice cream parlor. The ice cream is very good and I was impressed at our servers knowledge of the menu.
Sweeeeeeeet Moses was this place great. Great customer service. The shop is cute and takes you back in time. The ice cream was crazy delicious. The cherry phosphate was dynamite! and The coffee, nice and smooth. Great experience. I just wish they had larger cups for hot drinks. The prices were good. definitely bang for your buck. Thanks for the good times.
Awesome dessert shop that’s easy to overlook over the other ice cream giants of Cleveland. As others have said, it’s like stepping back in time into the prohibition era. Lines can get long but worth the wait for high quality unique ice cream/desserts!
Last week or so I had gotten a 7 layer brownie there. It was good and the staff are usually polite, but there was a long hair inside of it. I figured it was a one time thing, but then I got another brownie the other day as a gift, and more hair was inside?? Just, please wear hair nets..other than that the ice cream is always delicious and generous servings
Sweet as can be place and staff! Homemade candies sold here. Homemade popcorns here. Local coffee brewed here, The best ice cream to get, they make large cookies and brownies to sell, many flavors of soda prepared, toppings for ice cream for home use also for sale, and great decor! You can dine in and they have specially sized tables for children. I’ve bought it all here. Quality items! Small business owner with a large amount of customer happy customers I’ll stop so you can go here always looking forward to another visit myself and bringing others to impress
Absolutely delicious ice cream and their hot fudge sauce is the best! Staff is efficient and friendly.
Good portions for single scoop. Found a prize at the bottom of my cup of Pineapple Coconut Sorbet. Hint... Servers should be wearing hair nets.
Excellent ice cream. Long wait in line. But worth it
The ice cream was great, but I was charged over 30 dollars for one single scoop, one double scoop, one single scoop in a waffle cone, one sundae and a brownie. If you want your receipt you better ask for one, to make sure you dont get overcharged. They got my order wrong and bought me an item I didnt order as well forget an item. This place is super crowded. So come early and if youre not in a hurry! Parking is scarce on the street, but parking is available for free behind the arcade.
Great place to have a root beer float, which I had hmmmmm hmmmm good 👍. Very nice and cozy place to visit 😀
The parlor is so cute. The ice cream is good but I would like more of a selection.
Wouldn’t let us in even though it was 15 mins to close. Why have hours if you don’t follow them?
We were the first customers having brownies and ice cream for breakfast. Thats what we do as an adult. Sweet Moses should be visited several times a week. Sharon Why
We love having such a great ice cream shop so close to home. We cant imagine Gordon Square or Cleveland without Sweet Moses.
Fun place. My butterscotch milkshake was fairly tasteless. Nothing to write home about.
The BEST ice cream EVER, periodIf we would have known, we would have had this every night of our stay in Cleveland 🍦🍨
I WOULD HAVE LOVED TO GIVE THEM 5 STARS...But I was a pinch upset that decided to add salt to thier caramel corn . 😣
First time ever going to Sweet Moses. What a pleasant experience. Everything tasted great, and the entire staff worked together to prepare our order. It was like a soda shop out of an old movie. I sent a picture of the menu to my father and he plans on showing up this week and ordering his favorite item....chocolate phosphate made the correct way. We will be back.
Saturday afternoon with a line to the door and the staff of 2 poor kids led to very slow service. The kids did their best. The owner should do a better job of staffing. The ice cream and ambiance are terrific.
This place has done tremendous during the pandemic. Excellent ice cream and sundaes!
Love the ice cream here. What a popular local spot.
Great place, excellent ice cream and goodies! The place is a little small but the ambiance is great when not in COVID season... 4 stars for long wait times when busy.
Sweet Moses ice cream shop is good. However, the saff were so lazy and careless about custmers and orders! They took more than 20 min to prepar my order. and when I asked them about my order. They forgot to do it and they need more time to make my order. I am surprised How are they so disrespectful and irresponsible. I’ll never recomend it for my friends because of the staff are 🤬🤢😷.I added my order pic which took 40min. It was great . Such a waste because of the staff!!
Absolutely amazing 7 layer bars!
I came out to the area to try this place specifically and Im really happy I did!
Had to try this place out for myself. Walking in here will transport you back into sweet tooth nostalgia, a one of kind place that could be found in the middle of diagon Alley. Limited time flavors, home made chocolates and candy. An establishment worthy of Ohio’s ice cream trail. Service is quick and portions generous. A must stop for any ice cream lover!
Very expensive, not worth it. We was not acknowledge while waiting at the counter. No one greeted us or said just a minute. We waited 15 min before being served.
Im so happy that you guys have a Vegan menu💜. I really enjoyed it.
Great place and delicious ice cream 🤤
What a unique and delicious parlor! The only thing better than their ice cream is their chocolates. 5 star service but 4 stars for lack of parking in the neighborhood.
An old fashioned ice cream shop with a delicious variety of ice cream, coffee, and sweets, Sweet Moses offers a great retro atmosphere complete with 50s music. The parlor is decorated with local photography and memorabilia. I would highly recommend this location to anyone looking for delicious ice cream and a place to meet friends. Parking can be located on Detroit Road or behind the building in Gordon Square’s parking.
Always a charming escape! Nice wait staff
I loved how old fashioned it was. I loved the syrup bottles and the old bar. It was an unique experience and will keep coming back here.
Butter pecan... Soooo many pecans halfs and not chips😁 and I believe they were toasted. They could be toasted a little more for a bigger crunch and the root beer could be a little stronger or more than the ice cream. But over all they seem to have their system together for covid. Outdoor seating . Orders placed and picked up in 2 different spaces. They have 2 front doors. Very impressed
Delicious ice cream served with the atmosphere of an old school soda fountain. The line was out the door on this Saturday night, but the tasty treats were well worth it. Also, a good place to pick up a few small gifts for the Cleveland fan in your life: postcards, prints, and chocolate recreations of the Terminal Tower.
Excellent sundae. I hope to visit there again soon. I live in Mentor
Their ice cream is great! My favorite is the turtle sundae or the mount carmel (caramel). Never had any issues and some even have cute local names. They sell chocolate and homemade soda too. Great place overall and the store has a great vibe when you walk inside.
Terrible customer service. Darn near rude if one employee didnot step. Ice cream amazing not worth it for the kind of service. By service let me clear. I was not greeted. There were 6 different employees on the floor at that time all were not busy.... and when did we just become to busy to say welcome!!!! Be with you in a min. After 5 or so human minutes when I had observed the cleverly placed stands and specialty candy socially distant of course. I waited 2 more minute in realized should have been only a 5 minute ordeal. See when I was standing there he just told the only other customers 7 minutes just like in the movies So I walked forward proceeded to talk loudly. I realized I interrupted a cell phone conversation...from the cashier/manager... because when I got to purchasing a gift I needed more change 😬🤭so i rush 37 seconds cause parking was great (thats 1 star... ) And I circled back in the door take and akward 7 second trot to the cash register to see the same dude who took the firt 10 minutes to service me put technique (runner) in his legs to carry them thangs up around and away😅⏳ sooooo a team member step in she ran from around her station and quickly asked him what I owed and finished the awkward transaction. -- she is the reason it got two stars🤩. I will not speak from my behalf. I looooooooved the atmosphere however the customer service took care of that award. Instaworthy yes community friendly uhhhhhhh.... 🙀. Since I gave you that you should know this if we would have gotten past the service price point is very good. The taste of ice cream delicious, miltchells wins on the cherry. Brownies are richhhhhhh in the sundae. They freeze beautifully... ( nice snack a few days later) and the blondie covering
One of the best Ive cream shops in town
I miss this experience since covid lockdown love the physical ambience of this shop
Absolutely love this place! The ice cream is home made and incredibly delicious! They have special sundaes, holiday/seasonal specials, shakes, malts, homemade bakery and candy, and more! They also have an absolutely adorable soda fountain counter like in the old days. Great ambience and incredible ice cream!
Always great service and ice cream 🍦😋
Sweet Moses Soda Fountain has some of the best ice cream. They have more vegan flavors available, including vegan vanilla bean which most ice cream shops dont have. Their prices are comparable to other ice cream shops and their location is easily accessible on Detroit Avenue. The service is great and the staff friendly and accommodating. I appreciate that they are open and practicing safety protocols.
Such a great throwback to service and tastes that you just don’t find everyday! There is usually a wait if you go during peak hours but worth the wait.
Great service and great selection.
Cute shop, friendly staff!
This is my favorite ice cream place in Cleveland. Their ice cream sodas are to die for. Absolutely worth the visit.
Very good ice cream and very pleasant service.
This is one of my favorite dessert places! They have a great selection of ice cream, with an old-timey feel to the place. The staff members are always friendly and helpful with suggestions when we struggle to make a choice because everything sounds so great! 😂 a lot of the desserts are really big, so sometimes I split one with my husband. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in town!
Sweet moses is a shop that specializes in old style ice cream sodas. The decor is also pulled from the old styles and quite fun. Their ice cream was quite good I feel its held back by a lack of options. This plus the fact that almost all their syrups were fruity, means the combinations are not as endless as they could be, which I feel should be the best part of ice cream shops. That said, I will certainly be back.The customer service was top notch and easily the best part of our experience.
The Bob Feller Sundae is very scrumptious.
The number 1 go to place when you are in the CLE and have a sweet tooth!
Extra special treat!
No hair nets hair was flying around the ice saw several instances of this happening
Be prepared to wait in line but it is WORTH IT. Try their pretzel sundae, but honestly, you cant go wrong with anything here.
I highly recommend the butter pecan ice cream. Staff is knowledgable about their products.
Great ice cream and environment. They are an old fashioned ice cream and soda fountain shop, very authentic. Make their own ice cream, chocolate, toffee, etc. Highly recommend.
Stood in line with 20 other people and watched nobody get served in 15 minutes time. Very disappointing
I ordered delivery through UberEats. The fudge and caramel was still hot when it arrived! Yum! 😋 Ice cream was delicious, I tried coffee. It was wonderfully creamy. I enjoyed making my own brownie sundae at home!
Cant get enough of the vintage phosphates and delicious ice cream. A must try!
We had lemon and mango sorbet, and a vanilla milkshake. All excellent, albeit a bit pricey. Currently take-out only, but they have picnic tables in front of the shop.Notes: 1) Parking can be difficult to find,and there are several one-way streets that compound the problem. 2) The shop is located in what seems to be a strong LGBT section of town. 3) Anti-Trump rhetoric is over the top in this section of town, with people actively canvassing the area and passing out flyers for support of the Democratic ticket.I just wanted some ice cream...
It was good. Seating area was clustered.
