The POG froyo is AMAZING. My kid is going to the Run for Fun camp at Santa Rita and this is a stone's throw away. The froyo is incredibly reasonably priced (maybe like 60% of Yogurtland prices and the POG flavor has had me going back two days in a row XD friendly service and cute outdoor seating too! read more

Atmosphere: The shop is quiet and not welcoming. Service: The crew needs more training for sure. We weren't greeted, as dine-in customers, only one of us was served, and it was just giving judgy girl vibes read more

Super cute candy/snack and coffee place right in a residential neighborhood. It's so lovely. The pond in the back offers a great ambiance (though over the years kids have removed a bunch of rocks from the man-made pond and it shows. I wish management will replace the rocks so the pond can continue to look good. That's my only gripe). read more

We ordered dutch chocolate frozen yogurt. The junior size was just perfect. Delicious!!! Only 1 parking space is located in front of the shop. Cute shop with a lovely neighborhood vibe. read more

Great spot for sweets and frozen yogurt! A true Los Altos favorite for all ages. Locals love stopping by for a treat and enjoying the outdoor seating. We love sitting outside relaxing by the water fountain. Even with ownership changes, the new owners have done a wonderful job carrying on the legacy of this beloved sweet shop. If you're visiting Los Altos, don't miss this charming spot! read more

Every worker there is super nice and they always try to make you happy. I ordered the Danielle and it's a super simple sandwich with super simple ingredients that might be overlooked, but it is honestly one of the most amazing simple sandwiches I've had in my entire life and the ambience is also amazing with their little fountain and outdoor area read more

Cute location with lots of treats. Coffee , banana bread , froyo is also offered in vanilla , choco and pomegranate flavors with choice for toppings. Parking was tricky as you have to park on the side of the road on a busy street. read more

Fun and charming place to go on my bike rides with the kids! The desserts are great, and the patio is a relaxing place to hang out.

I had forgotten about this hidden gem - pretty great coffee - Verve. Soft serve fro-yo - BOGO with Yelp check-in. Bulk candy, sandwiches made to order - local baked goodies. Worth checking out - nice patio with chairs to sit and umbrellas if you need shade. Darling store read more

Definitely off the beaten path. Nestled in a quaint, quiet neighborhood is this cute cafe. Prices are moderate, service is a bit slow, but the charm amidst Silicon Valley is remarkable. There is a cute little backyard area to enjoy your treats. read more

This place is so cute! I wouldn't have known it exists if it weren't for Yelp since it's in the middle of a neighborhood. It has a full wall of candy, froyo, coffee, baked goods, etc. There is a cute patio area with outdoor seating for you to enjoy your treat. I got sour belts and hubbie got coffee. The sour belts I think cost $3 which isn't bad at all! read more

This place is amazing. I work at the school right behind it! And I'm always impressed by the quality of their food and service! I ordered the same meal for a whole week straight! The skinny egg bowl with toast on the side yummmmmm! I wish they had a loyalty program to get a freee item I go here so much 100/100b! read more

Kids love the fun times we have at the sweet shop with the huge variety of candy and the delicious food.

Awesome find! I live in Palo Alto and didn't even know about this hidden gem. I got an iced matcha latte with oat milk (+$0.50) and a croissantwich with ham (+$0.75). Overall spent about $15 with a 15% tip. The latte was a real highlight here, I could clearly taste the matcha and the only sweetening came from the oat milk. It was a subtle sweetness that didn't overwhelm the matcha, it was great! As for the croissantwich, it was buttery, soft, and delicious (it was made to order!). I included the ham and I think that was a good move, it needed some saltiness. Overall, it's a great place for a light weekend breakfast. read more

Cute local "Sweet" shop located in a nice quiet Los Altos neighborhood just a few blocks from Santa Rita Elementary School. In addition to novelty candy, they also serve frozen yogurt, coffee, lunch, dippin' dots, plus much much more. It was cool to see Thomas Keller chocolates bars and other local brands. There are 4 little round tables inside and a few more tables outside in the patio area. Fun place to hang out with the kids or to catch up with a friend. Proceeds support local schools! read more

This is such a cute little neighborhood gem. We thought we had the wrong address because it's really in between houses. So dang cute. So, street parking. Clean bathroom.

4.3 stars. This review for for their birthday and cafe. This is a cute place for a cup of quiet tea/coffee. Dogs are very welcome! I tried latte and sandwiches, it tasted average. I saw candies but that is not my favorite. The shop is a great place get rest and enjoy a afternoon since has a fountain and have a peaceful environment. Birthday party was held at the back of the shop. Very cute and pretty place. Good to fit around 10kids. Parking is easy to find in that neighborhood. A place good for small groups. read more

It's nice to have such a shop embedded in the neighborhood without the hub bub of a Main Street in front. Keeps it like a little secret and enhances its charm. The froyo was delightful. I enjoyed the Dutch chocolate. The original is definitely tart and a different flavor profile. The toppings are standard and fun. Replay value here. read more

The Sweet Shop was such a massive part of my childhood, I am so thrilled to see it is alive and doing well 10 years later. I'm reviewing this as someone who just today realized this place was still in business, but my fond memories prevail and thus I give it 5 stars. Truly a brilliant place to bring the whole family. read more

Amazing candy shop. Food is great, elaborate variety of candies, and drinks are very flavorful! Great place to just chill on the weekends. My kids love this place and come here often. I as well love this place, 5 starts . read more

With my mother in law very recently moving into the Palo Alto Commons, we've been starting to explore the area for fun quick trips to take her and our kiddos. Sweet Shop was exactly what the day called for. A 5 minute drive and my family's sugar cravings were met, along with my caffeine needs! They ordered a variety of fro yo and toppings (getting 3 after a nice rigorous hike), and I was pleasantly surprised with a tasty and strong iced dirty chai. I thought the price was pretty reasonable, considering the Los Altos location, quality of food/drink, and the charming ambience (very cute seating inside, along with a peaceful outdoor area with a beautiful fountain). We will definitely be back for fro yo on a sunny day. read more

Cute candy shop serving Frozen yogurt and refreshing drinks. It is hidden away from downtown Mountain View and may be the best kept secret in town. I ordered the Farmers Melt along with the Raspberry Sorbet on the side. The Farmers Melt was nice and toasty with the chicken breast, cheese and pesto making for an amazing savory Sandwich. If you're able to come here from 11am- 2:30pm as that is when they are serving their lunch menu with other sandwiches, fruit bowls and tomato soup. The Raspberry Sorbet was delightful as well as it definitely hit my sweet tooth when I was eating it. Overall this is an amazing shop that also donates some of their profits to local schools. I can't said anymore excellent stuff about this shop and I will definitely come back for more when I am in the area!! read more

This is a really cute frozen yogurt and candy store. A great find in Los Altos. I got a small bowl of chocolate frozen yogurt with fresh strawberries. The small was shareable really, if I wanted to share. My husband tried the mango frozen yogurt with brownie bites. Before the virus I heard that you could go into the tiny building to sit and eat your frozen yogurt and check out their candy store. Today with social distancing to remain safe they have outdoor seats and tables. You can ask for their candy selection as well. Remember to eat and shop local to support our fine businesses. read more

Great shop. But I drove over 20 minutes and got there as the door was being locked and couldn't get in. Sad.

As the names says this shop is perfect to get a bag of candy, ice cream, and even coffee. Today I was craving some saltwater taffy, and it did not disappoint. Also got some decent coffee, chocolate malt balls, which were very good, and some gummy sharks. Good location, employees were friendly, and reasonably priced candy, what is not to like. read more

A little less than impressed after our first visit to the Sweet Shop. At 1pm on a Sunday the pastry selection was very limited so I went with a sandwich that was thin, soggy, and quickly fell apart. For $6 was it worthwhile? Maybe, but I'd have preferred to pay more and get a more substantial lunch. Also definitely did not experience the "warm, welcoming" employees that others mentioned. read more

I had a shockingly poor customer service experience. My family and I have been going to this shop since it opened years ago. Today on my daily walk, I had the sudden need to use the lavatory and decided to stop here to meet the urge and purchase a cup of coffee. Getting old really sucks sometimes. I explained to the clerk that I needed to use the lavatory and suddenly the manager/owner broke off her conversation with some friends and said,"No, it was only for employees." I begged that it was an emergency and she just refused citing her COVID rules. When I said that I had just sanitized my hands, she callously turned her back on me and returned to chitchatting with her friends. Also, please note that I was fully masked and following all social distancing requirements. I cannot believe that someone can be so dismissive of someone in need. You can choose to continue to go to this shop, but I will never step foot in there again. So much for the nice neighborhood coffee/candy shop. read more

A little slice of Willy Wonka Wonderland ;-) A cute whimsical set-up for the kiddies, and a lovely outdoor patio for the grown-ups. They brew and serve a fabulous cup of coffee, and have a hearty candy selections. However, they could use an upgrade on ice cream-- they serve two flavors of blah soft serve (real ice cream or gelato addition would definitely be a plus). Another tip I would give to management would be to offer tongs instead of scoops for some of the candy jars. My daughter and I both had a hard time using the scoops to retrieve the long gummy candies out of the jar-- that clearly need a tong. The outdoor patio with fountain/pond combo is why my daughter and I go back, not to mention the candy fix she gets ;-) The patio is just super adorable, and worth the visit. read more

Such a cute spot. The coffee is delicious and the kiddos had a great spot to sit and read a book with a cup of cocoa!

Amazing and charming sandwich and candy store in residential Los Altos. What a find! Highly recommended

I want to write a review since Sandra (owner) was so nice to us. We wanted to use this candy shop as a background for my daughter's Halloween party pictures. She's Oompa Loompa this year, so a display of candies was the route we were going for. Sandra made us feel comfortable and even helped us out in getting the photos we needed. We even bought some yummy candies. Sandra and her staff were all very nice to us. read more

Very cute place in a quiet neighborhood. They have assorted candies and yogurt and some ice cream but not the scoopable kind. Ice cream that is already packaged. Nice quiet seating on the side near a fountain. I would visit again if I happen to be in the area. read more

Literally a cute little "sweet shop" located in a residential area of Los Altos! Came by to escape the scorching south bay heat for some chocolate froyo with a side of strawberries (~$3.75). It was very good! :) There is indoor and outdoor seating, but I preferred indoor because the A/C was relieving. I saw that they had some Dippin' Dots, which can be rather hard to find nowadays. Overall, quaint shop with very friendly employees. I wouldn't hesitate to stop by again. read more

Sweet Shop - Excuse my half attacked Choco froyo w/ strawberries but yuuuuummy! - Candy Stores Near Me - Los Altos, California

This was a surprising little jewel situated in a Los Altos neighborhood. Who knew it was there other than the locals? We only happened upon it after my daughter used Yelp to find a place that offered Dippin Dots! They also have a variety of yogurt, candies in cute jars, drinks, sandwiches, etc. There are two parking spaces (one regular, one handicapped) in front. No biggie since there is so much curbside parking. It's definitely worth coming back for! read more

I enjoyed a chocolate milkshake and chai latte. It's located close to the bike path so it's a nice walk, even from a few neighborhoods away

Adorable little shop with chocolate soft serve yogurt which is the best glad i dont live next door as i would eat it everyday
