There are two painted chairs to sit on nearby. They offer close to 30 flavors of soft serve ice cream, including cups, cones, waffle cones, sundaes, banana splits, cookie ice cream sandwiches, frappes, floats, arctic swirls, and pup cups. The pricing is reasonable here. I stopped by Sweet Dreamz after work for a cold sweet treat. I ordered one of their premium sundaes, Nuts n Bolts ($6.25) which had vanilla soft serve, crushed Reese's PB cups, Reese's Pieces, whipped cream, peanut sauce, hot fudge, & cherry. They offered to pack my sundae to go, but I decided to enjoy my sundae nearby back at the vehicle. The Nuts n Bolts ice cream sundae was very sweet with my favorite candies & sauces. I had to enjoy very quickly as it was melting on a hot & muggy afternoon. I should be back again this season!

Coming from a much larger city with cookie options, this place wouldn't probably survive there, but it's probably fine for Manchester. Something I would revise on the cookies is to make them crispier and possibly include more dark chocolate options into them. The bars are actually a better option if you're looking for a more substantial cookie experience

Insomnia Cookies has opened a location in Downtown Manchester in May 2025. This is their first NH…read morelocation and it's very popular with the younger crowd including night owl college students. Insomnia Cookies stays open very late to cater to the night cravings for fresh baked cookies and ice cream. I've enjoyed Insomnia Cookies in the Boston area and in Central PA (State College). They offer online ordering, DoorDash delivery, and in-store pickup with limited seating inside. Recently, I made two visits to the Manchester Insomnia Cookies. On the first visit, the place was extremely busy and I placed an online order through their app since they had a buy 9 classic cookies get 3 classic cookies free ($23 plus tax). On the app, I picked out 12 classic cookies including Chocolate Chunk, Classic with M&Ms, Oatmeal Raisin, Peanut Butter Chip, White Chocolate Macadamia, Snickerdoodle, Sugar, Double Chocolate Mint, Double Chocolate Chunk, Double Chocolate Chunk (Vegan), Vegan Chocolate Chunk, Birthday Cake (Vegan). It took a long time to fill my online order and it was actually quicker to wait in line since staff was boxing cookies promptly for in-person ordering. There were several DoorDashers showing up to pickup orders. Once I got my box of cookies, I enjoyed them with my friend back at the house. The cookies were still warm and soft, on the sweeter side. Also, I do not recommend mail order Insomnia Cookies, which I did a few years ago during COVID and those cookies were stale, dry and crumbly. On the second visit. I was given an offer on the app for $3 off Ice Cream on a Classic Cookie, but both the app and website would not allow me to checkout. I decided to go in-person and showed staff the offer and they manually discounted my order to just under $5. I got the White Chocolate Macadamia topped with 1 scoop of Caramellionaire & 1 scoop of Peanut Butter Insomniac Tracks. I also redeemed a free cookie reward, which actually worked on the app and I also informed staff about the free cookie, which was promptly given to me, instead of the quoted 25 minute wait on the app. Overall, the fresh baked cookies at Insomniac Cookies were pretty good and sweet. The classic cookies are soft & moist, yet not cakey like Crumbl. I will have to order some of the Insomnia deluxe cookies on future visits here.

I was definitely tempted by the beautiful cherry cheesecake and the turtle one as well. They had m&m cookies and chocolate chunk cookies, several cupcakes and other delicious looking things. I finally decided on a couple pastries for my parents (cinnamon rolls and fruit filled pastries)and a couple oatmeal cookies with chocolate and coconut for us. Everyone loved everything they had. If i had any complaint it was that I myself would prefer less cinnamon in the cookie as I felt it slightly overpowered the coconut but my daughter thought it was perfect. Great place for finding a special something for any celebration or just because. They do have a couple tables as well so a great place to meet up with a friend.

After hearing so many wonderful things about Jacque's Pastry Shop in Suncook, NH and enjoying…read moreseveral of their cakes we confidently ordered a gluten-free wedding cake for our son's wedding. Based on Jacque's reputation and our experience with their cakes we did not visit the shop to taste their gluten-free offerings. The cake was nicely decorated. Unfortunately, it was one of the the biggest disappointments of an otherwise beautiful day. The cake was EXTREMELY dry, to the point of staleness. Our guests took a bite and pushed it aside. Several members of our family remarked that it was very dry. We understand that gluten-free baking can be challenging, but we've had many excellent gluten-free cakes elsewhere. Given Jacque's reputation and the premium price we paid, we expected a much higher-quality product. The customer service afterward was even more disappointing. I contacted the bakery and spoke to Jacque directly, twice. I requested at least a 50% refund or a credit for a non gluten free cake, believing either of these options was a fair resolution. Jacque responded by raising his voice and saying "absolutely not, it's not my fault". Then added "I just had surgery". My response was, "you are the business owner, so yes, it is your fault." Jacque stated that they buy a mix from a manufacturer that he did not name. I was shocked by both his response and lack of empathy for such an important occasion. I have never left a negative review for any business but couples deserve to know what our experience with gluten free was like. We trusted Jacque's with an important part of our son's wedding, and both the cake and the way our concerns were handled fell far short of our expectation.
