Great place. Brings the inner kid out in me. Definitely check them out you won't be disappointed

When I was little going to the candy store was my favorite thing after school. So when I saw that B&B Ice Cream & Candy had candy that I use to get when I was little. The atmosphere made you feel warm and welcoming. I was greeted when I walked in and I took a look around they had Ice Cream, Chocolate, Candy, Nachos, Italian Beef and all kind of Good things. I got the Nacho which comes with Ground turkey and Sour Cream (Rare sight to see), Some candy and Specialty Chocolate. The Nachos were everything and seasoned perfectly. Candy reminded me of being little and the Chocolate was good. Pricing was good and I will be back because there are some other items I have to try. read more

I've been coming here for the last few years bringing my kids it always good food and good customer service

The food here too expensive and isn't worth the price. Sorry, cute place but the food is nasty. I literally got sick eating that mess. It might be time to get the health inspector out there. ‍ read more

Was in the mood for ice cream and originally went to McDonald's but their "ice cream machine was down". Then I remembered my sister told me it's a ice cream/candy store in the neighborhood . I'm so glad I finally gave them a visit. I was instantly greeted when I walked in which I appreciated . I started to look over the ice cream selection and an older guy which may have been the owner asked if I wanted to try the ice cream before I made my selection. Of course I said YES! I tried the Banana pudding ice cream and yes I said it BANANA PUDDING ICE CREAM . Which was heavenly but I was in the mood for Chocolate , so I got the Piece Of Cake ice cream which was amazing . B&B has everything that a candy store has to offer !! I will definitely be back !! read more

Very pleased. The customer service make you feel like family. I wanted to buy more! The jerk nachos are one of a kind. The banana pudding came home with me I will definitely be back for the nachos and the customer service! Support this black owned business! read more

I really like this place. They bring in their ice cream from a company rather than making their own flavors, even so the Banana Pudding flavor is yummy. Yet, the best thing about this place was the naked candy...nuts with caramel and only a little chocolate. Some of the best candy I ever had. read more

Very good customer service and a large variety of treats. Black-owned is a plus. Took my daughter here and she loves the nachos. The milkshakes will keep me coming back. Nearby and have a sweet tooth? This is your place. read more

I was craving banana pudding ice cream & after searching the city, yelp led me here. The place is pretty and clean on the inside, although it did smell like they mopped the floor with old water. I got a scoop of banana pudding & strawberry cheesecake and a nacho tray. The ice cream was really good! I sampled the strawberry cheesecake and it was amazing! The nachos were okay. I like that they have options for beef or turkey, I chose turkey but the meat wasn't seasoned in my opinion. Good experience, will be returning for ice cream again. read more

My mom recommended this place from a FB review and I'm glad she did! The inside is clean and there are a few tables to eat your ice cream etc. The ice cream flavors are plentiful from plain vanilla to a birthday cake flavor with pound cake bits inside! My husband really enjoyed the banana pudding flavor and my mom liked her black walnut, too. The workers were really nice and allowed us to try any flavors we asked for. One guy even gave my two year old a dollar! The owner was pleasant as well and we could tel he really appreciated our business. The best part is they did not overcharge for anything! The prices were great! I'll be back when I'm in the neighborhood, for sure! read more

Reminds you of an old school candy store. I took my family and the service was quick, options were many. Truly enjoyed this nice place in the hood. Worth it. Highly recommend!! read more

You can't help but fall in love with the decor when you first walk in! Then on top of ice cream & candy, they have chips with cheese and meat- which is what my friend got. I got ice cream and told the cashier I was missing a spoon in my bag. She told me I wasn't and went back and forth with me about it.. smh. Then I showed her the bag and she laughed and gave me one. I'm like really lady over a spoon and haven't returned since read more

Oh my goodness this place is pure nostalgia, black family owned. Customer service on point! Support this place! Will definitely visit every time I'm in town. read more

Hidden gem! After tasting several flavors we landed on a mix of bomb pop and lemon Italian ice. So refreshing! Cute space and excellent service. Nice mix of sweet treats and other Chicago favorites (eg italian beef). Didn't try anything other than ice cream but will definitely go back! Reasonable prices and nice to have a local spot in the neighborhood! read more

This a gem in the Auburn Gresham neighborhood. Finally stoped in today after riding by this place while it was under construction. The owners/workers are friendly and there are so many options that I didn't know what to get. I'm definitely gonna go back. And the prices are cheaper than what you see from your neighborhood candy lady and to top it off they put sour cream on your bag of hops with cheese and meat. Be sure to stop in even if only for a quick second, I promise you won't regret it. You can even play a quick game of chess. read more

I absolutely love this place! The owners are friendly and the staff is great! They have so much to offer! I have tried some of everything they have! It's so much to choose from! The prices are reasonable and a lot cheaper than most places! It's great for the kids and they put Sour Cream on your chips w/ cheese & meat! So awesome! I go at least twice a week and spend a min of $10! It's so worth it! Definitely my favorite place to get goodies! You can even play a game of chess! Hope this place is around for years to come! read more

My niece was having a blah day, so I decided to take her to get some ice cream , glad I found B&B!

I'll definitely be bringing her back often read more
