Crema's Take
“The Sweet Escape leans hard into frozen yogurt and novelty items like Dippin Dots rather than coffee craft, which makes it more of a dessert spot than a serious coffee destination.

It's a fine casual hangout for a sweet treat in a pleasant plaza, but don't expect specialty coffee expertise or quick turnaround.”
What to expect

Text away and a great little plaza is a yogurt shop with lots of toppings. A little pricey. But overall happy.
