Welcome to Serendipity
Soda & Sweets

Step back into the golden age of Main Street High Springs, where soda fountains were the gathering place of the community. From bubbly sodas and creamy ice cream to shelves of colorful candies, Serendipity is a sweet escape for families, friends, and anyone chasing a taste of nostalgia.

An Experience Rooted in Tradition, Flavor & Fun

Nestled in an 1895 apothecary, our shop blends history with flavor. We’ve carefully restored the space to honor its past, while filling it with sodas, ice cream, and candy that delight every age. Every corner tells a story — and every treat is part of it.

From Our Guests, With Love.

We had such a great time visiting Serendipity Soda & Sweets! You can just feel how much love and care the owners have poured into every detail, honoring the historic charm of the space while adding their own little touches of wonder throughout. There’s so much to see and take in, and the vibes were absolutely perfect, from the self-playing piano greeting you at the door to the nostalgic magic all around. We tried the pumpkin muffins, grabbed some homemade apple crisp to go, and of course couldn’t resist a root beer float. 10/10 all around! We can’t wait to make many more memories here with our kids for years to come. Truly a gem in High Springs.

Walking into Serendipity feels like stepping straight into a technicolor daydream where childhood wonder and grown-up indulgence collide. The walls practically hum with nostalgia. The staff are the kind of genuinely cheerful people who make you believe the world still has magic left in it. Serendipity lives up to its name — a happy little accident of sweetness you’ll want to stumble upon again and again. Make sure to check out the charming antique store and chic Sweeteasy.

Sweetest retro candy shop experience ever. This is as close as it gets to the candy store from the Willy Wonka movies. Amazing spot to pickup a dessert and experience some nostalgia. The raspberry phosphate was very light and refreshing and all of the desserts we've tried so far were really delicious.

Serendipity is a step back in time. Everything in House, including the ice cream is Homemade. You can taste the nostalgia 👍

They have delicious brownies. The tiny Dubai cannolis don't taste like Dubai chocolates, but they do taste like cannolis. The place is decorated beautifully. I love how much there is to see. It's surprisingly very big inside. Just like the TARDIS: it's bigger on the inside!

Absolutely incredible from start to finish! I’ve been following their journey on Facebook for the past two years, and you can truly see how much heart and soul went into this renovation. The grand opening was packed, in the best way! The Sweet Easy is such a cool concept starting as a soda shop, leading into a thrift shop, and then revealing a hidden speakeasy in the side. Every detail is so thoughtfully done! My husband tried the Oreo cheesecake and loved it, and I can’t wait to go back and try a root beer float.

Such a cute spot in High Springs! It was the perfect place to grab a cappuccino and a treat. The owners are super friendly and make you feel right at home. My kid loved picking out candy, and we had chocolate ice cream with sprinkles, delicious donuts like I’ve never had before and tiramisu cheesecake. So good! Definitely a fun stop if you’re in town.

Such a cool and unique place. Our drinks, ice cream, and the donuts were delicious. We went on opening day and even though they were slammed busy and packed, the staff were incredibly helpful and pleasant. Can't wait to go back

We visited on opening day and had a wonderful time. The staff was extremely friendly and our order was delicious. It was extremely busy, so we did not get to explore every nook and cranny, but we will be back!

We got to be the first customers on opening day! You can tell how much work the owners have put into making this place a beautiful success. We tried the homemade ice cream and were impressed. I am very excited to have them open in downtown High Springs. It’s half ice cream/half antiques/and even a secret Speakeasy.
