    See the mound of marshmallows
    Becca F.

    The stars are for cleanliness. That's about the only good thing I can say. First of all the employee was nice but very uninformed. I was using a Groupon for two ice creams and two bobas. She tried charging me and said she didn't know how to use the Groupon. She eventually just said she'll figure it out later. They had a long list of items they were out of so it made it a bit hard to pick something with many key ingredients missing. I would suggest if you're planning ahead to pick a couple different options in case this is the norm. I asked for marshmallows as a topping. They were stuck together in one giant lump and she had to use two spoons to even get it in there. Both the bobas and the ice cream left much to be desired and we threw all of it away with maybe 5 bites taken and a quarter of the drink attempted.

    It's a fairly novel way to enjoy ice cream & super fun to watch. The employees are friendly & tell you all about the process if you tell them you are new. Some creative toppings are offered - peanut butter pretzels? Hot Cheetos? I went with the Pink Explosion, topped with whip, strawberry syrup, graham cracker, mochi & chocolate chips. Tasted like strawberry shortcake. They also sell Bubble Tea, milkshakes & cotton candy.

    Making rolled ice cream
    Joy H.

    Great menu with a blend of traditional and eclectic flavors. I had Black Sesame in Vanilla with a drizzle of honey - yummy. My husband choose a strawberry cheesecake. Kids picked plain chocolate, Oreos in vanilla and fruit pebbles in vanilla - with colored mini marshmallows on top. Watching them being prepared on frozen metal plates was a fun experience. They also had some scrumptious looking bubble teas, smoothies and milkshakes. Be prepared to wait as it takes about 5 minutes per order to mix and freeze the ice cream rolls. We'll definitely return. Small groups of 2-4 are best.

    08/30/2018: Drinks are just ok

    Review #260 - 2018 While driving back to our hotel, we were exhausted from the heat and needed something cold, sweet & refreshing to keep us alert so I decided to Yelp the nearest milk tea spot and this place wasn't too much of a drive out of our way. I had a little bit of a hard time finding it because the signage is pretty hard to see from the street so I circled back & forth and finally called them to figure out where they were located & we were actually in the shopping lot across the street from them. When we showed up around 4 PM, there were a few people waiting for their orders, but we were able to place our orders right away. The young lady who helped us was very friendly and patient as I made my final decision since I wanted a fruity drink, but they don't offer any fresh fruit type drinks so I went with the lychee shaken iced tea with lychee jelly. My niece got their original milk tea with boba and we got an order of their Tropical Vacation rolled ice cream to share since it had fresh mango bits. We both agreed that the drinks are just ok, but we really liked the rolled ice cream. My drink was actually a lot sweeter than I expected. I guess I shouldn't have asked for less ice. They actually have three different locations so if we are craving their ice cream when we head back to Portland, we'll definitely stop by.

    This is a wnde full place. Rolled ice crean is a new experience. They pour cream on a plate that is 22 below zero and you can add anything you want. The process is fun to watch as well. I got chocolate and strawberries covered with chocolate. With chocolate drizzle and Andes mints and m and Ms Very delicious.

    Oh-My-Oreo ice cream!
    Nichole S.

    My ice cream was delicious! The staff was friendly and the place was clean. They have a menu with a variety of different combinations to suite practically anyone. They also have crepes, bubble tea, and cotton candy. I had the Oreo ice cream and added a toasted marshmallow to it and my fiance had a hot cheetos ice cream with extra hot cheetos on it! (That's the variety I'm talkin' about!) Now it is pricier than other ice cream shops, so be prepared. You also get toppings that are included in that price though. The servings are huge, you could definitely share your cup of ice cream with a friend or child! Also be prepared to wait a couple of minutes as they hand roll the ice cream in front of you. I thought it was amazing to watch, but don't come if you're in a huge hurry and don't have time to be helped on a one-on-one level. I will definitely be back to try more flavors!

    First the ice cream- it's good but not great. As far as actually ice cream quality goes it's basic and the mix in items are just barely there in the background. Certainly the production of making it is fun and unique. The staff is friendly enough and atmosphere is pleasant, it reminds me of any other ice cream shop. Next the bubble tea - very few bubbles in the mix, but the ones that were in there were cooked well. The flavor itself was a bit watery. It's served blended and the blended ice was quick to melt despite it not being a hot day and therefore was not enough to make it like a chilled blended drink. The location is out of the way not sure how long they'll make it.

    Took WAY too long. It should take 30 minutes to make 2 bubble tea. Not to mention the young man had a broken glove. Over done tapioca pearls

The donuts are self-serve with trays and tongs. They had a wide variety available. I selected a original glazed, a pretty in pink (strawberry glazed), a chocolate and a pandan. I also ordered two K-dogs (Korean-style elevated corn dogs), and a classic pearl milk tea with the standard brown sugar boba. My order was ready in less than 10 minutes. My drink was a pretty standard boba drink. Good, but nothing special. The drinks are very customizable, with ice amount and sweetness level just two of the options. The K-dogs were really tasty. I got an Potato Dog (which is a corn dog covered with crispy potato cubes and served with a fry sauce). The other dog I chose was the Gochujang Dog: their standard corn dog with Gochujang sauce. You have the option of having your K-Dog stuffed with mozzarella, a hotdog, or half hotdog and half mozzarella. I did half dog, half mozzarella on both. The cheese made the K-Dogs like huge fried mozzarella sticks. I enjoyed both, they were huge, and I ended up splitting them with a friend. I had both sauces on the side as my order was to go, and both complimented the rich cheese/dogs nicely. The fry sauce was rich and tangy, and the Gochujang a little spicy and a little sweet. The donuts were good too. This was my first time trying mochi donuts. The mochi flour gives the donuts a firmer and denser texture than your standard donut. I love other mochi desserts, but here I missed the lightness and melt-in-your-mouth quality of regular donuts. That is more of a personal preference, but something to be aware of, especially if you are sensitive to textures in food. It seemed like most of the individual flavors of each donut came more from the toppings rather than the donut itself. That isn't unusual with donuts of any kind. The service was awesome, and I was intrigued most by the K-Dogs. I will be back when I am in the mood for an different kind of treat.

More just a stunt with the gold leaf and Dubai chocolate is not that much better than the other flavors. Not to mention it's twice to three times the price of the other flavors Favorite so far is the espresso Boba is ok. Not the same level as the ones in big cities but good enough in the small town

    TLDR: The cookies are Fantastic!…read more Stopped in here after brunch at a nearby spot. I have heard via the internet that Sewell Sweets has the best chocolate chip cookies in Salem. Since the internet never lies, I had to verify for myself. I wasn't disappointed! Are they the best? I'll have to continue my research to say definitively. The cookies are fantastic! I will definitely be recommending Sewell when the discussion of cookies comes up, which it frequently does during conversations with me. Service was quick and helpful when we asked about a cookie that we didn't understand. The atmosphere is nothing to write home about but all I wanted was a cookie so no problems there. If you are looking for quality cookies or anything else to satisfy your sweet tooth, look no further. Well, stop here, enjoy your treat and continue your research, but you'll be back to Sewell Sweets.

    My fiancé and I were looking for a bakery to make our wedding cake. We approached Sewell Sweets…read morewith excitement -- submitted an inquiry, made follow-up calls, sent emails, and confirmed directly with the owner before visiting. What followed was pure frustration. When we arrived, the employee had no idea about the cake box listed on the website and offered to call the owner when we raised the pricing discrepancy. While helping us, she was also audibly complaining about another customer, saying she "couldn't even wait 45 seconds." We ended up paying more than the advertised price and were only told after the fact that in-store pricing differs. All four cakes went in the trash. They were dry, stale, and one tasted so off that we couldn't take more than one bite. $48 for product that was completely inedible. When we called to report it, the employee showed no empathy, made no apology, and had a noticeable attitude. When the owner called back, I was calm and polite. I was hoping for basic acknowledgment, given we had planned to spend significantly more on a wedding cake there. Instead, he led with camera footage, misrepresented what I had said, declined my offer to return the cakes, and ended the call with nothing but silence and "I'll take it into consideration." Maybe it was an off day. These things happen, even at great businesses. But a great business apologizes, asks questions, and tries to make it right. None of that happened here. What makes this experience stand out isn't just one bad interaction -- it's the pattern. Unanswered emails. Misinformed staff. Inedible products. Dismissive phone calls. And then a same-day public response crafted to discredit rather than reflect. Do yourself a favor and find a bakery that actually values your business, your event, and basic human decency. Sewell Sweets is not it. --------------- UPDATE: The owner has replied to this review on Google, and while I have no interest in a public argument, several claims in that response are inaccurate and anyone reading deserves the full picture. We were not attempting a random walk-in tasting. An inquiry was submitted early-to-mid March, a follow-up call was made on March 18th, a follow-up email sent the same day, and we spoke to the owner on March 19th -- during which he confirmed he had seen our emails, that our date was available, and that he would be in touch. I told him we would be coming in the next day, exactly as his employee had instructed. We followed every step we were given. The owner did not apologize multiple times. He opened by citing camera footage -- for a quality complaint -- then told me I had claimed a cake was dropped on the floor, which I never said. I described the taste as "off" like he said, which is not an insult by any reasonable standard. There was a lot of silence and he just said "I'll take it into consideration." Twice. That was it. At no point during any of our interactions did we raise our voices, argue, or say anything disrespectful. We were nothing but polite. Also worth noting -- just because someone else didn't complain, doesn't mean our experience didn't happen. For someone who described an extremely busy service day, not a single positive review appears to have been posted that day, which goes to show not everyone shares their experience. In fact, this is only the 2nd negative review I have posted in my entire life and the only one that is food related. The owner claims he looked "carefully" into our experience -- yet by his own account, in just 25 minutes he managed to receive word from his employee about my call, conduct an internal review of the situation, review emails, confirm proper handling and quality of preparation, speak with three separate staff members about our interactions, and check camera footage -- and still had time to call me back. That is quite a thorough investigation for 25 minutes. Finally, it says a lot that a lengthy response was written the same day to dispute a customer's experience, yet an email sent over a week prior was never acknowledged and a call from days before went unreturned. ------
