The flavor options and pricing are at the cash register and you can't really see either from afar, which makes it feel rushed when you get to that point. The pricing I think is getting pretty high for what it is. They no longer scoop the ice cream in front of you - the ice cream is around the corner. When we got to the smorgasbord, the whipped cream wasn't working/was empty. The workers didn't seem to want to fix it, and once you leave the line you can't re-enter. Pretty disappointing to not be able to get their homemade whipped cream they rave about. For almost $9 for a one scoop make-your-own before tax, it was honestly not a great experience today. We miss the nostalgia of this place - it's becoming more industrialized and less sentimental.

To get the true Kellerhaus experience, get the ice cream sundae bar! You can fill up your bowl with toppings like hot fudge, raspberry sauce, candies, and whipped cream to your heart's content. And then be sure to top it off with a mini flag! After ice cream, take a stroll around the gift shop! There are several rooms of cute items to explore. I recommend the chocolate room especially, you can find really nice gifts there for all the chocolate lovers in your life!

I browsed the store and found everything was incredibly overpriced so wanting to at least buy something I settled on a small item, the peanut butter cup. This place makes Granite State Candy, itself a pricy place, look like they're practically giving it away. Nope

Stopped here for our touristy needs. I was originally a native of this cute, Stars Hollow-esque…read morelakeside town of NH, and this gift shoppe right on the main strip didn't disappoint. The pricing for souvenir hoodies & such is on the pricier end, but the quality was significantly better than it's big city kin - and the variety was decent. Much of the candy sold here is made locally & GET THE SALTED VANILLA CARAMELS (they are definitely worth the calories). Wish they had offered magnets - but I'll have to make due with the apparel. Hoodies run $35-$55, t-shirts start at $15 & candy is sold by the pound for the most part. I'm happy to support this business, and looking forward to returning the next time I'm in town.

A BIG shout out to owner Sara Nicolas !!! Excellent service ! Cheery attention to details !…read moreJoyous attitude and fabulous advice ! She knows her products and customers and it's her obvious pleasure to accommodate. A visually inviting space, it's packed with unusual, playful candies as well as more sophisticated items like truffles. A feast for the eyes and belly ! You will not be disappointed.

A fun place to visit in Meredith, New Hampshire. Lots of candy, chocolates, fudge to choose from…read more To be honest, if I wasn't full from lunch, I would have bought some goodies. The fudge seemed a bit over priced though, 24.99 a pound . But looked like lots to choose from. Worth the trip to come even if it's just window shopping. It's fun and pleasant.

This cozy novelty shop is a little piece of fudge heaven on earth! We stayed up at Steele Hill for…read morethe weekend and passed this little shop a couple times during our stay and I knew I had to stop in before we went back home. So glad we did! The fudge is to die for and they have so many different flavors to choose from. The shop also sells NH and NH made novelty items... maple syrup, tea, soy candles, chocolates, T-shirt's, sweaters, mugs, body scrubs, popcorn, etc. Although you have lots to choose from and the fudge is amazing... the best part is the warm and friendly service we received even before getting out of our car. The owner was extremely warm and helpful... and customer service is number one in my book! He mentions he will be expanding services even more in the months to come. And I can't wait to be back to have some tea while getting a foot massage and eating some fudge! If you're in the area, passing by, or even if you're not in the area... add this little hidden gem to your list of stops to make. You won't regret it!

The previous reviewer (Angela S.) really nailed it. Granite Life is great! We were on a mission…read morefrom my grandmother to find a rock. She's very picky--you'd think that a rock wouldn't be hard to find in the Granite State, but she had stipulations. Plus, it had just snowed about 3 feet, so any rocks that might around sure weren't visible. So, we called around to a few places to ask about rocks. We got a lot of puzzled looks (through the phone), until we reached George. He said, "Well... sure we have rocks. Are you staying Steele Hill Resort?" We were. "Okay, come by tomorrow, and I'll have a couple rocks for you." So, we went. The shop was clearly closed for the winter season, but we called George and he can down from his home (on the same property) and gave us a selection of rocks from the boundary wall of his property. We tried to give him some money, but he refused. We told him thanks and that we would have to come back sometime to check out his shop. He asked if we wanted to check out the candy, and we said, okay, if not too much trouble. Nothing was too much trouble for George. He opened up the shop, told us about how it was a labor of love for him and his family, lots of local goods, including maple syrup from the farm up the street. And fudge, all sorts of different, delicious fudge. They also had plenty of novelty gifts, hand-screened sweatshirts and t-shirts, and a little coffee nook overlooking the fields and lake in the distance (can't remember if we could see the lake--but it was there!). Needless to say, we couldn't help ourselves from picking up a few souvenirs and happily supporting a local business and businessman who obviously cared about his customers and how he treats them. We can't say enough nice things about Granite Life--friendly, convenient if you're in the area, wide selection of souvenirs with local flare, and just a generally good vibe to take home with you. Highly, highly recommended. Oh, and Gramma liked the rock--not too flashy, but she loved the story and the history of it. Mostly, she liked that we made the effort to find what she wanted--thanks, George.

They have a great selection of nostalgic sweets! But the real magic happens if you know where to look. I won't spoil the whole surprise, but let's just say you should take a closer look at the vintage Coca-Cola machine in the back... Once you get inside the "secret" area, the vibe completely changes. It's a full speakeasy with incredible atmosphere and amazing cocktails. We ordered a round of drinks including the Espresso Martini, Cosmopolitan, The Peach Ring, and The Yeti. Every single one was spot on--perfectly balanced and strong. For food, you absolutely have to get the "Bees Knees Burner." It's a homemade hot honey feta dip made with Greek yogurt, red pepper flakes, and sweet honey. It was served with warm naan/ bread and fresh veggies, and the balance of sweet and spicy was incredible. Whether you are looking for a fun stop with the family for candy or a unique night out for drinks and apps, this place hits the mark. We own a rental property nearby in Gilford and will definitely be telling all our guests to check this place out!
