I LOVE LOVE LOVE this place ❤️ every time I have gone, the cashier/shop attendant has been lovely and helpful. Always grab a tin of 100 piece Roca and maybe a few seconds. Definitely pop on by if you havent already!
Staff are always friendly. I always shop here before out of town visits. Youll always find the latest gift tins for gifts and factory seconds as bargains to take home.
Small gift shop right outside the world famous candy factory. They have good prices on their usual products like Applets, Cotlets, Almond Roca, other Rocas, and Mountain Bars. They also have very good prices on those things which (sometimes) dont pass quality assurance standards; miss wraps, ugly things, broken solids, double wrapped, etc. The staff in the gift shop are great, and Ive never had a bad experience. (Honestly, I only go about once or twice a year because its so easy to overspend.)
A gem in my own backyard. Deep discounts, great parking, friendly staff
Always stop by here for gifts for out of town guest. Delicious local treats. Very Reasonably priced not always oops product. Weve also bought the Seattle tin with Almond Roca for a discounted price
This is the only Brown and Haley outlet store that I know of. Located right next to the candy factory 🏭. It may be small but it is loaded with great deals. Miswrapped roca at a discount. Many factory direct products. Different items during different times of the year. A nice hidden gem of the great Northwest.
Oh My, So Exciting to have Brown & Haley Almond Roca Factory in Tacoma, Washington. Parking is limited so suggest you go before Holiday Rush. The staff is knowledgable & friendly. I bought Almond Roca crumbs for baking with 3 month shelf life. It is good in Apple Crisp. T-shirts & souveniers are available too.
Fun to Christmas shopping in September.. who doesnt like candies and sweets from a top tier candier
So glad I could take my mom there. many selections due to holiday season. the set package is cute! you think whats so special go there n buy? they offer not only traditional almond roca but cashew, macadamia, dark, carmel,seasalt. the workers r friendly nice.there is structured free parking but also there is enough street parking, too.
We just came from this store and felt discriminated. Every white person who came in was greeted happily by the store owner and given a little tour of the store and were shown all the specials they have, except us, who were the only Asians who came in. So sad we have to experience this with my son. Never going back here, very bad experience:(
Youre lucky to have this place in this town. We buy up a pile of miswraps to repackage as gifts over the holidays, and everyone loves it. Even the crowd who cant stand Applets & Cotlets.The factory has been here forever. The sugar is baked into the wood. If you care about local products, or history, or community, check it out.
On the rare occasion we would ever get sugar candy while growing up we never passed up the opportunity to get a Mtn Bar....little did I know 50 years later the factory store would be off my on/off ramp. Cherry Mtn Bars are still amazing...but more amazing is the citrus white chocolate bits I used from Brown and Haley this year to make a whipped chocolate ganache for my pineapple birthday cake! Best place in Tacoma for empty calories!
Great place for gifts or just the best candy in the world -Almond Roca and Mountain bars are still the best treats ever
What they have offered in samples and spoken knowledge of history has changed since the pandemic, though still fun to take friends to learn about their history, what they are still doing today and for them to make purchases at this famous company and location
Who doesnt like candy gift shopping on a budget! BOOM 💥
The store is allowing ONLY 2 customers at a time. They have different kinds of packed rocas. There is a ramp to enter the building but the store is very small. There is a sign on the door asking you to sanitize your hands upon entering. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
Lovely selection of fresh chocolates. Excellent variety. Service was prompt, friendly and helped direct us toward flavors we prefer.
The best place to go in order to find the best they have to offer at B&H. I love the Cashew Roca, but can never find it!If you want to save money and dont mind eating their oopsies, you can buy factory seconds... They are awesome!
Very small but very cute and original.
Great deals on the candy everyone loves. I like the holiday tins especially for gifts. This quaint hut is packed full of all sorts of delights from applets and cotletts to mt. bars.
Great treats for a great price. So many varieties of roca and candies made right there.
Over 100 years ... and you pick up a bag of spit outs for under $2, taste just as good
I was driving along and happened to see this on the side of the road. So glad we stopped. So many tasty choices of candy and super friendly service. This is where it all began over a hundred years ago!
I really like Almond Roca and the girl that worked there was nice-looking and her Attitude was good
How could anyone not like discounted grade A chocolates??$!
Staff is so helpful. Great gift ideas. Great prices. Good place to visit and stock up when in down town Tacoma.
This review is about the clerk at the fife location. NOT ABOUT THE PRODUCTThe older male clerk working the retail floor on Saturday April 10, 2021 needs to find a job outside of custoner service. He ia plain out RUDE. not only to me but the lovely lady in front of me who had a couple questions...
Fun place to visit. Great deals to be found.
I wish they could do factory tours but the prices were so good & forget it...the chocolate is my fave!
I bought their ROCA sea salt collection from Costco in Canada.. its really good and yummy...
Free samples and Tons of yummy Candy made fresh and On Site. Whats not to Love here! Its an original of its kind and I love the faces of all the Elderly customers indulging Joyfully amongst the sweets and selves😘💖 I dont mind the costs, who knows how long unique places like this will stay a float. I hope for a lot longer.
Small but nostalgically awesome!
Wonderful piece of Tacomas history- past and present! Great candy!
Some good deals on imperfect candy.
Very delicious and excellent prices. A must stop when you are in town.
Great store good candy
Friendly staff and plenty of inventory and good prices
Always good
They are open on Sunday where the warehouse is not open on Sunday. The website says open on Sunday though.
Always have the bomb deals. Those factory seconds tho...
A nice hidden little gem in Tacoma. They let you try out any chocolates they have on display. Plus they have bags of not so pretty toffee chocolates (in my opinion theyre just as great) but at a fraction of the price.
One of my favorite places. Easy access. Delicious candy.
Good candy!
Great place where I spend alot of money buying those candies for gifts
A really great little shop to browse and taste different Roca products. They have great friendly staff who help you find what you need, and they have a deals area where you can find great prices. I recommend it!
Friendly staff, great deals and amazing tasting treats. Love the Moca Roca!
Good for getting gifts and snacks
The absolute best place to buy Almond Roca candy! Best for holiday gifts. Best when you want to buy in bulk. One of my favorite shopping experiences in Tacoma!
They added Sea Salt Carmel to ALMOND ROCA!!! Oh my!!!!! So, yummy
The store is extremely small. The deals arent as good as I remember. Its worth a visit. Very kind, knowledgeable cashier. Some items you wont find anywhere else. Limited free parking. Not usually crowded.
Small shop full of candy. Great for gifts!
Get Tacomas famous candies here. Sample s are available. Comes in collectible tins or bags. There are several flavors to choose from.
Good candy
Great deals and friendly service.
The 🔥 chocolate🍫 is exceptional.
Its tiny but nice, factory screw ups and deals. They all taste great but may be flawed in looks. I buy the mountain bars by the box.
Brown & Haley Tacoma own. Incredible products and enormous variety. From Almond Roca to Mountain bars they turn out a quality product time and time again. They offer local employment and helps the community in that way. Visit their on site ministores for a taste of one of the best and original candy products on the market. This is a manufacturing plant bare in mind.
Best place to shop for chocolate 🍫 😋
Ran into this place by accident when in Seattle. Super friendly staff and great prices on factory seconds.Bought a bunch as gift for folks back home.
Pretty awesome
Nice staff. Small outlet with a decent selection and alright prices. Definitely need to put this into your GPS to find. We almost missed it.
Cant beat the prices
Love this place! I feel in love with the candy my nieces sold for campfire and now they are grown and I moved. It is so nice to have a place I can go and get the candy they used to sell me. Try the almond caramel clusters. Yum!
Great staff and great selection.
I love to stop here when Im in Tacoma, WA. There chocolate is so good and the prices are great!
I love this little piece of lucious history. The staff was very friendly and enthusiastic. They are proud of their products and happy to point you to the best deals in the store. There are all kinds of free samples as well so you know exactly what to buy.
I have always liked their products. The outlet here at the factory has great prices. They have these peanut butter candy bars that are awesome!
Despite the fact that navigating their parking lot can be tricky, they do have an adequate amount of free parking. They always have discounted seconds, as low as 50cents for a bag of roca. They also carry mountain bars, bark, and chocolate dipped graham crackers. They carry other Brown and Haley items, such as orchard fruit squares, that they dont make on site at prices lower than most stores. They also have humungous sizes and gift sets. Bring a bag ;) It has been my experience that roca seconds are a well loved host/hostess gift for holiday parties. Worth it to make an hour or less to drop in during operating hours, try samples, pick some up, and check out the historic building.
Great deals and discounts at this store!
Ive been visiting and enjoying Almond Roca products at this place most every year since I was a child. Their candy is delicious and always fresh. I like the newest salted caramel flavor!
Great deals!
Great little place to visit with free parking, but super small. Some of the deals that they have are not bad.
This little store is way cool I love this place . All the different kinds of candy is sweet . I have been here lots of times and I wanna go back . Almond Roca is so good . Its kinda by the Tacoma dome . Its easy to get too and find .
A Tacoma classic, friendly staff and great retail deals with a fun selection of candies.
Great store. Love how helpful the ladies are.
Luv this candy born and raised by brown and haleys quick service
A must visit for anyone visiting from out of town. Best deals and freshest product on Almond Roca. Being from Tacoma and now living in Seattle, I stock up whenever I can and share with pride at work. Its a favorite and the best deals are by going in person. They always have plenty of samples out and the staff is always very friendly and passionate. Highly recommend.
An iconic part of Tacoma wrapped up in a tiny shop. This Brown and Haley location no longer does tours, but they do serve factory seconds, and have good deals on their products--especially the non-gifty ones. I definitely recommend stopping by if youre in the area.
Love coming here for Almond Roca on the cheap!! Its too bad theres not a factory tour.
I love Almond Roca, and I love Vanilla Mountain Bars! Got my children hooked on Mountain Bars as well! They live the peanut butter ones, and say that they are far better than peanut butter cups!!! 😊❤️
Quick step-in before the holidays as we were leaving downtown. A fun adventure as we hadnt seen this local company before. This is just a very small retail shops that sells Almond Roca and their other treats for reduced rates.The women working in the store were anything but friendly, not much holiday cheer and actually a little rude to the customers. It didnt stop me from over buying treats tho!
To be clear, this is the factory store, literally in the factory parking lotIf you like Almond Roca and Apples and Cotlets, youll never find them cheaper. The wrapper being slightly off center doesnt change how delicious they are.Plus, if you havent checked them out lately, theres dark chocolate, mocha and other new flavors. We love it.
Lots of variety, free samples and helpful staff. The taffy was amazing, soft and fresh
This candy store is the best place to buy almond roca
A little hard to find in the dark but great warehouse!
Really not what I was hoping. Its a candy factory! There has got to be so much cool stuff inside. I wish we could walk through some hallways and see the magic 😔
Will be back, been coming back for years. Always a great gift ideas
We always stop here when going through Seattle. Never know what candy you are going to find, but it will be at s great price. Love their seconds!
You can get a GREAT deal here if you love their candy by purchasing bags of factory seconds. They dont look as pretty, but that doesnt matter when youre chomping them up in your mouth! :)
This place had been around for a long time great place for cheap candy
Im working part time at the almond Roca, its a good company and most of her people are very nice.
We love coming to this nostalgic candy shop!
