I have not been to any other Sweet Republic locations so perhaps the others are spectacular. This one is not. It smelled in here. Not a good smell like baking cinnamon buns or coffee. A bad smell like dirty dish water and feces. At this point we could have turned back. We SHOULD have turned back. Foolishly, we did not. The ONLY reason we went here was because my wife had read online that they had black sesame ice cream for her and chocolate Guiness ice cream for me. Nope. We were informed immediately that they had forgotten to update their online list. Oops. I got the Jameson's Irish Cream which tasted like Vanilla. My wife got Butter Pecan. She liked hers and said that the cone was delicious. I was so sad about not getting my Chocolate Guiness that I could come up with nothing positive to say at all. $3.50 per scoop. Get some Ben and Jerry's at QT. I feel so bad for the people who seem to love this place. They deserve better. This place stinks.
