    Chocolate and vanilla twist cone small
    Jennifer R.

    Our family loves Sweet Babe's Creamery. And we're so glad they are open for the 2021 season again. I usually order the classic chocolate and vanilla twist cone. This place is cash only so don't forget to bring it upon arrival.

    A wonderful addition to the Urbana area. I popped by after getting my order from Jasmine. I fancied a shake after the warm weather. They said they could make one in almost any flavor. Tempted to ask for an Irish coffee one came to mind. But I'm a nice guy so I instead asked for a banana malt. It hit the spot, not that expensive. And it was all natural, none of that crap that Micky D's use. Very friendly staff too. I will surely be back soon.

    This review is for the so called snow ball. It's literally a cup of ice cubes with syrup, the best part is they have a picture of a snowball on the menu and it looks nothing like what they are advertising. This item should be taken off the menu if it's not made correctly with shaved ice.

    Debbie, the owner, is by far one of the sweetest ladies I've ever met. We love coming to Sweet Babe's (as does our puppy) for a treat, and because we know we'll always leave with a smile from the kind staff.

    This place smells amazing!! The presentation is amazing!! The customer service was great!!…read more I typically visit the Gaithersburg location but I was getting dinner nearby and stopped here for dessert The fusion of flavors they offer never disappoint!! I ordered a box of 4; peach cobbler (2), carrot cake, and strawberry crunch. My niece loved the strawberry crunch and was pleasantly pleased with the strawberry filling. I always get the carrot cake when they offer it, because it's so tasty and they don't overwhelm it with all the extras because why mess up a perfect dessert with raisins and nuts (not a fan of raisins and nuts)! The my his had the peach cobbler cupcake, he didn't make a fuss so I assume he enjoyed (he's pretty picky)! Overall, the cupcakes were top-tier and they are well-deserving of all the business that they get!!

I was surprised that she ate most of it considering the size of it. I would include a spoon instead of a fork to enjoy this dessert since it had ice cream. I had the cheesecake which was tasty however, the slice was a bit small. The fresh whipped cream was the star of the dessert. It was rich but also light and had really good flavor. Overall, I would definitely order from here again. The desserts were yummy and maybe I will try something different and visit in person.

I was in the strip for dinner next door and saw fro yo so I knew I had to come here after for dessert. They only had 4 froyo flavors and one sorbet. One of their machines was out of service so it's possible that they might typically have more flavors available. It wasn't the best froyo I've had but it wasn't bad. The topping options were ok but the setup was odd. They had candy bars but most weren't crushed up. Most of them were mini size bars (like mini Snickers) in their whole form. Not how I want my chocolate/candy on my froyo. Everything had lids but some of the lids didn't have handles so we awkwardly had to maneuver them while spooning out the toppings (you get your own toppings). We got here 1.5 hours before closing so I hope the lids were only on there because they were preparing to close. I will give them credit that it was one of the cleanest group places I've ever been in, and I've been to a lot.

    I haven't been since before COVID, so was nice to stop in and see how things are. They have changed…read morequite a bit since their early days. When they first opened they were strictly a frozen yogurt place and bubble tea. Now they offer less frozen yogurt (but still have a nice selection) and they have a nice offering of Vietnamese food. They have beef and vegetarian pho, as well as other selections. They have also added pretty murals to the walls. On this trip, we tried Taro Milk tea, Peach milk tea and a beef pho with an extra side of vegetables. The owner was there and was super helpful about my options. The pho was piping hot when I got home and tasted really good. They gave me a generous side of vegetables. The pho was my favorite part of the meal. Our milk teas were good. I personally prefer a "stronger" taro and could have done with it being slightly less sweet (I usually don't add any sweet to my teas, or almost nothing). You can't control the amount of sweetness here. My daughter liked her peach tea but thought it was a little too sweet for her but still good. Each Boba shop has a different take on their milk teas (we're boba addicts and have tried most of the ones in Montco), so I think over time, we've developed a taste for a certain type of milk tea. I was pleasantly surprised by the nice food additions to their menu and thought they were delicious. If you're in the Urbana area and craving some good food, frozen yogurt or Boba, then definitely check them out..

There were only about eight people waiting outside, but there didn't seem to be any real organization. There was no clearly defined line, no sign indicating where the line started, and no obvious way of knowing which window you were supposed to approach. The location has four service windows, yet only two were being used. Employees would occasionally call out that they could help the next person, but they were speaking so quietly that it was difficult to hear them. The drive-through wasn't much better, with roughly 10 cars waiting when I was there. They also provide sidewalk chalk for customers, which is a nice idea, but people were drawing and gathering directly around the ordering windows. Because there isn't already a designated waiting area or line, that just made it even harder to tell where customers were supposed to stand or walk. What should have been a simple stop for ice cream turned into about a 15-minute wait with people basically standing around trying to figure out what was going on. The ice cream wasn't bad, but it also wasn't good enough to make me overlook the experience. With two grocery stores right nearby where I could have picked up ice cream and been on my way, I left feeling like the wait and confusion simply weren't worth it. Hopefully they eventually come up with a better system for managing customers because the current setup definitely took away from the experience.

It's a small mart that specializes in middle eastern Mediterranean cuisine and ingredients. They place does not have seating inside, but plenty of seating outside. So plan on either take out or picnicking. They make the food right as you order so things are fresh. The part I really liked about this place was that the sauces were not overly salted - to increase shelf life - and the amount of oil/butter was not overly used to try to mask the ingredients. It's more on the "let the ingredients speak for itself" which I really dig. In the end, you don't feel heavy after the meal and you feel like you had a hearty and healthy meal. My favorite was the lamb shawarma. He toasts the outside pita and it gives it a nice crunch. The lamb is fresher than other places and he doesn't over season it to hide the lamb smell. Other places - if you notice - tends to use cumin a lot of mask the lamb smell. Not here though. The falafel sandwich was okay. It was colder than the lamb shawarma. But the falafels were made right there in front of you. I got the sujuk sandwich too (which is a type of sausage). It was a breakfast burrito basically. Our order took 20 mins to make and he makes it right when you order. So be prepared to stay there and peruse around. Some ingredients there were interesting. The one thing that caught my eye was a bottle of pomegranate molasses. He sells it close to 50% what Harris Teeter would charge and he has various brands of pomegranate molasses. I use pomegranate molasses to make grenadine for cocktails. Also has orange blossom and rose water (also both used for cocktails) I like this place and the guy is nice and sweet.

Made a reservation not like you really need one, but we made one and was seated down pretty quickly. The host was nice and friendly and the wait staff said hello to us within the five minutes of us seating. I appreciated how family-friendly this place was, they give these cute little animal boxes with different things inside and crayons to keep the kids entertained. The decoration is fun with a lot of outdoor vibes and stuffed real animals. They bring out a side of chip and a yogurt dill dip that's interesting, a fun idea. The food, mhm so we ordered a lot! Crab dip: 2.5/5 not too bad but not memorable, okay amount of crab, flavors were too heavy on the cream cheese/fillers but just okay, they need more bread with it but the chips helped. Prob wouldn't order again Crab cake: 3.8/5 pretty good size and good amount of crab and good flavor probably the best dish that we had ordered here! Would get again. Burger: 3/5 granted I did order this medium well for my kid, but the burger was charred a little too much around the burger, giving it a sort of dry crunch on the edges and charcoal burn vibes. Not my favorite texture that I would want on a burger, but perhaps it would've been different if I ordered a medium? Bread itself was a little stale/crunchy which I did not prefer how it was cooked/prepared. Overall, it was just okay. Ribs: 2.5/5 the ribs were half off ribs so I decided to go for it because of the good deal. But it was just okay, being that Blackhog barbecue is right next-door (thier dry rub ribs are amazing), I would hope that they would step up their barbecue rib game. For a " full rack" there were only nine bones and seemed a little smaller than what I'm used to. It's very heavy on the sauce which I didn't think was the best pairing and wasn't the best flavor bbq sauce. Overall, I wouldn't order it again. Steak kabob: 3.2/5 this was actually pretty tender for the cut of meat, I'm surprised that I didn't have to work for it so I was happy about that! The only criticism that we have is that the meat itself did not have that much flavor or seasoning and there's only one skewer of meat and one skewer of veggies. Meaning the total amount of meat that was probably on that dish was no more than 4 -5 ounces of steak. And for that price point, I would want a little bit more meat. Mac and Cheese: 3.5/5 pretty good for a kids Mac! Good cheese and flavor was impressed! Overall, the service and the host in the experience of being there was pretty good, but the food was a little lacking not sure if I would go again, but it was on our right experience in terms of food
