Visiting from Alabama and just happened upon this place! Owner is awsome and so helpful. Lets you try candies before buying. You will not be disappointed.
A beautiful ray of happiness on a cloudy day. That is how this candy shop feels. It just makes your day, so much better! Greatest fudge ever!
I don’t make it to Omaha very often. I live two hours away. When I have the time, my husband and I visit friends in Omaha, and always drive through the old market. I love it when we do this! I talked our friends into stopping at the candy shop recently. It had been a couple of years since I’ve been there, but I loved my experience, and wanted some of your fabulous fudge! When I got to the door, there were customers walking out of the store. As I reached to open the door, the employee locked it and turned the closed sign around, right in my face!? I told her it would only take two minutes, and that I was from out of town. She said no, the registers were already counted down!? Now, I work in retail management! And you just had customers leaving your store. You must have employees with fantastic register counting abilities!? I don’t mean to be sarcastic, I really don’t! But I was quite upset at the blatant lie thrown in my face! I do realize it was five minutes after closing. Five minutes!? If my employees refused a customer, they know, they would be in trouble with me! I am so upset, that I don’t know if I would ever come back to this store, I’m sorry!?
Classic old time Candy Shoppe experience. Not a large location but has a great variety. My daughter loved it.
Visiting from Dallas and stopped by this gem! Chocolate was incredible….specifically the best seller mud pies. The young lady that helped us was knowledgeable as well.
An excellent example of a small home town candy shop. There is a limited stock of old fashioned style packaged candies, but the main event is the glass cases filled with chocolate treats made on site.They have a modern point-of-sale system that makes purchases easy and the staff are exceedingly friendly.
Great little old fashioned candy shop. Was here traveling for business and stopped in to get a treat for my kids. Super nice folks. Delicious treats.
My grandkids loved walking into a store with nothing but candy!
The candy is amazing!! We stop in every time we are in the Old Market. The pecan clusters are to die for!
The best! Good service, good treats! Yum!
Great mom and pop shop. Very friendly and military friendly. Old fashioned, modern, and homemade candies. A most go to.
Everytime i find myself in downtown omaha i have to pop in and see if they have more mudballs. Friggin amazing
I hope we are all gonna be ok I pray now ok yes then
Very friendly and amazing chocolate (homemade) fudge is also great. A must see when in Omaha
Every time I come back to visit Omaha, this is on the checklist! Tradition!
Very friendly staff and yummy candies
I always love finding these small shops in a big city that offer treats made by hand. Better than a snickers bar or oreo any day.
Great variety have candies and other treats. Great customer service.
When you walk in you feel like you jumped back in time. The staff is so kind. When my two small children and I walked in we were greated with Why hello there! I have something here for you! And he so kindly walked my children over to a wall of candy with a smile. They have so much candy and homemade fudge and taffy and so on so forth! Would HIGHLY recommend stopping in for a treat and a friendly conversation. I gave it 5 stars for a very good reason. Thank you Old Market Candy Shop for such a pleasent visit!
Great people, great candy, loved it!
The customer service was great and we enjoyed all the chocolate so much.
Honestly, the BEST chocolates I have ever eaten from anywhere around the world!!
Awesome candy and wonderful prices
Friendly with a great selection and excellent fudge.
This place is amazing! I will definitely be back!
Very cool little store. Chocolate was amazing.
Exceptional chocolate, friendly staff! Amazing variety, and the whole experience was great. Cant wait to go back.
This shop is charming and the staff are very friendly. Youll definitely find something there to satisfy your sweet tooth. I really like their salted caramel chocolates and their truffles. But they have a number of classic and modern candies too. Definitely worth your while.
Not weird like Hollywood Candy, the employees are wonderful, and they have a fantastic assortment of Candy.
Best milk chocolate covered caramels! Best candy store anywhere❤
I love this place. Reminds me of when I was little.
As you step in through the doors youre immediately greeted with a smile and feel like youre welcomed instantly. Everyones favorite place to feed their sweet tooth craving. Hand made to perfection, crafted with hard work and passion. Plenty of options so youll find those cravings the satisfaction theyve been craving. Give this place a try and make some new memories with your kids and loved ones. Definitely the spot around Valentines day!
Delicious prepackaged fudge thats COVID19 ready.
This is the best chocolate in Omaha, for sure. They have a great selection, and every piece is delicious. Also, delicious is an understatement. The fudge is amazing too. It is also very reasonably priced for how high quality the chocolate is. The staff is always friendly and it’s a nice place to stop in for dessert. I’d recommend to anyone who likes chocolate (and who doesn’t?) to stop in and try OMCS.
Thank you so much for being open during this crazy time! My daughter and I really needed the best chocolate in town and you all never let us down!!
Excellent service! Over the Holidays we had to make many orders but needed them spontaneously, and they always came through! Had our orders ready to go and everything was so delicious and well made! High quality and excellent taste! I recommend them 100%!!
Jelly Bellys, taffy, fudge, nostalgia candies.
Each time were in the area, we make it a point to stop in. Seriously, the best popcorn! Super friendly, helpful staff. Id like to see more focus on house made items...like peanut brittle, candied apples, popcorn balls, maybe candied bacon and less novelity items but its still a great shop.
Best candy shop in town!! Owners are super sweet (pun intended)! Great candy, good prices, good service.
Mike is absolutely the best friend Ive ever known. Happy for his success.
Awesome place to visit. We are from Sioux City and we go here every time we are in Omaha. The staff are friendly and the candy is to die for. A must visit
Love this place. Half the store is a mix of classic and modern packaged candy, but everything inside the display case (fudge, truffles, chocolate candies) is hand made in the shop. You can tell this pretty quickly because you can usually see one of the confectioners at work.Theres a markup on the branded candy, but the chocolates are very reasonably priced and you can buy them individually.Our faves are: the peanut butter fluff cups, the pecan or and almond turtles, the chocolate covered caramels and the truffles.
Very cool place to check out in the Old Market!! Theyve got all of your favorite candies from your childhood here as well as much, much more! Super neat place to walk through too! Definitely worth stopping in!
Cute little place with a lot of charm and many ways to indulge your sweet tooth. Old time candy favorites here also.
Old Market Candy Shop! My favorite part of Omaha! I was in town for a family wedding and Google, in its infinite wisdom, led me to The Old Market. First stop was the Candy Shop.The most warming, honest, greeting Ive ever received upon walking into a business. They truly put the customer first and there care is immediately apparent. Your first step in feels like childhood, and youre holding a golden ticket.Beautiful storefront inside and out. The selection is vast and the taste is purely unmatched in the chocolate/fudge business.The owner, Mike, was happy to share his story and give us background on the history of the establishment. Mike spoke with pride in his business, and rightfully so, as each item we purchased we savored, immensely.If you only have time for one stop at The Old Market, make it this place!
It was wonderful!! Had family visiting from Illinois for my sons 1st birthday and they loved it!!😊 Lots of variety. Definitely plan on going back again!!
Neat little candy shop located in the heart of the The Old Market. If you are into candy and or have small children, this is a place you might want to visit. Nostalgic candy as well.Very small shop so hopefully it wont be crowded if you stop in... Just be patient and wait your turn!
All the chocolate treats are delicious, good candy selection too. Chocolate sea sponge cake is my favorite!
My wife loved this store. Im not much on candy myself, but what we got was delicious. The fudge was worth it. Great store.
We always stop and buy fudge. All kinds of chocolate. Good candy.
No visit to Omaha is complete without a stop here. Amazing selection of candy, both novelty and homemade. The staff couldnt have been friendlier and more helpful. Kudos!
It was unique and interesting $hops and resturants.
Yummmm, great chocolate s and coffee.😛😛 Very friendly folks, and full of compliments! I might just move in😍😍 Chocolates, coffee, and compliy who could ask for anything more!!
Love to go into this shop! Mike Pivonka, the owner, really knows how to run this place. Great selection, friendly staff. A must stop when in the area!
Very helpful and a nice selection of sugar free chocolates.
Always a wonderful experience we try and visit the store every time we are in Omaha. Everyone should take their kids to the Candy Shop its a magical experience for them and a little nostalgic for moms and dads!I have used them for company gifts too - They mailed a huge box of fudge gift packages across the state for me at Christmas. The gifts were a huge hit and something unique that no one else was doing.
Excellent service. Its like taking a step back in time to one onther.excellent fudge and other candy you just cant find in other stores
Great! Love Mikes candy shop❣
Cannot get any better!😀
Great variety if candies and awesome homemade fudge
Best chocolate covered cherries Ive ever had! Everything is delicious. This is my go-to place for a little thank-you gift or hostess gift.
Great homemade candy taste with craftsmanship. I particularly enjoy the chocolate covered cherries.
They are the only ones in town that carry my husbands favorite candy. The atmosphere is cozy. The folks are patient, kind and absolutely wonderful.
Love this store, their fudge is amazing. The young lady that help me was very knowledgeable about the fudge and the rest of the store. Thank you so much.
Such an amazing place. My grandaughter loved it.
Friendly knowledgeable staff. Best homemade candy in town. Very clean. Love my experience there. Can i give it ten stars?
So quaint and cute. Definitely a throw back to the good ole days. Staff is so friendly!
One of a few candy shops in town that makes some of its own products! Service is always incredible when I visit. If your a chocolate lover they make a variety of chocolate cant options. Try it out!
Price was fair.
I give them 5 stars for reaching out to me after a less than satisfactory experience purchasing candy. Retraining staff and selling quality product(s) is a great step to being quality business. - Thank You Mike and Jeff!
Yummy
Their homemade items are the best, their fudge is very good. Dont have a ton of package candies, but a good enough selection. Very friendly and helpful.
Best candy. Great service. What is there not to love about it??
Great little candy shop, attached to an ice cream shop. Definitely recommend stopping by.
Best candy and jelly belly selection. Lots of house made chocolate and just really fun.
Retro candy not to mention homemade candies. Fav is Fudge and semt-sweet choclate cherries.
This place is Awesome!!!
Are very courteous and kind and knowledgeable and very sweet thank you
Rum and amaretto balls are the bomb! I live in Washington state and my Mom loves these...quick and convenient before catching my flight!
This is an update to a previous bad customer service experience by Robert Harris. I thought it only fair to commend the owner(s)/management for correcting the problem and redeeming themselves the next day and give a 5-star rating. At least it will average out the 1-star. We were promptly greeted when we walked in the door and offered free candy when we identified ourselves. One girl that was there the night before turned beat red LOL. Thank you, you have a nice shop and a great product. We shall return. :-)
Stop here every year we come to.Omaha for our anniversary. Get sanples of the best homemade fudge!
Huge selection of locally hand made child and adult sweets. Large selection of prepackaged candys. Really nice and helpfull people behind the counter. Very reasonable prices.
