A very nostalgic candy store with a large variety & a super friendly staff.

We bought 3 cans of soda, and found one to be leaking while on our walk. We returned to have them reimburse us or exchange and they told us we had to inspect every aspect of the can before buying it and that we needed to call the manufacturer to complain. I explained that this was simply selling a product that was defective and they should call the manufacturer and we should be reimbursed. They refused and accused me of causing 1/3 cans to leak. Seriously. $3.50!? Inspect everything you buy because they wont and they wont care to.

Super fun time to visit with in-laws and children. Loads and loads of old time taffy, the sheer spectacle of so much candy has the kids in pure excitement.Assortments of taffy, gummies, and more. Mostly sugar candies. While there are some chocolate And baked goods, it’s not the main attraction.

This place has a fun selection of candy. Im big on thr salt water taffy.The staff was so nice and friendly, not sure why the bad reviews on that.They have a decent selection. A first feel, they felt pretty hard but still bought some to try. So glad I did!! It was so amazing! All thr ones we picked had amazing flavor. Also noticed it was so soft and sticky. Im heading back there tomorrow to get more before I leave town it was that good.

The taffy is a little stale. After the first stale piece i thought okay maybe just that one was old.. No, they all were . Ive never experienced that before but still good selection. I love the weird flavors you can find. I still ate it all!

Wow... Who works at a candy store and doesnt like candy?? Went in with the FAM bam... Who traveled in from Los Angeles... I sampled 2.... My fault for assuming more than 1 sample. An employee approached me, with attitude, said she just charged the customer ahead of us since they samled more than 1... I thought, fine... please charge me the 18cents for the additional sample then.. I asked the employee which taffy was a best seller. The response is almost laughable...I dont know...I dont even like candy. No help whatsoever. Employee could have recommended just about anything... Instead she she gave the lamest response ever heard in a candy store. Lol. What a lame employee. Poor customer service represented from Sac town... How embarrassing. Cant sample more than 1, yet cant give a personal opinion on which to buy. LAME!

Unfriendly staff. We were short by a penny and the woman wouldnt budge about it. We paid it in full. But wouldnt recommend this overpriced store. Theres better candy store in old town.

Very disappointed with our taffy. We spent $25 on candy and got home to eat it and its all old tasting or hard and breaking apart. I think I got a few that were ok. Really wish it was soft and chewy. 😞
