    The shop has a really fun and modern vibe, and ordering is done on an iPad, which makes it quick and easy. Although there was little to no interaction with staff. The drinks look super nice, but I felt they were a bit overpriced for what you get and they are very sweet. I also wish there were more snack or food options since it's mostly just drinks, but heard they plan to add some new items. Overall, it's a decent spot if you want a quick drink, but I probably wouldn't make a special trip just for it.

    Great ambiance and easy ordering process on an iPad. The drinks are hand crafted and tasty. I wish they had more shack options. It's more go to place for boba while in Rockford.

    I love gentrification and hispters, no I'm not being sarcastic. This place has both. But don't let that alarm you if you're an ostrich who's afraid of change! This place is unique! I love it! Order at an iPad, mobile pay or swipe, and booooom! Out comes my fantastic drink. Whaaaaaaat?! Fast! This is how all restaurants should operate for to-go/carry-out orders. Seriously. I built my own shake. Vanilla base, added chocolate, caramel, and cookies and cream. It was that kind of a day.

    Ever since candy cloud opened i've loved going there and getting their drinks with boba. There is always very amazing workers and service, whom show patients and respect for all customers! They are very quick to work even during rush hour, giving everyone a wonderful taste of boba, coffee, ice cream, and carmel at in one !

    Candy Cloud is here to stay. LOVE IT!!! Located in Rockford , Illinois this coffee shop is a must visit for refreshing iced coffee, boba drinks with ice cream, and gluten free/vegan drinks!! Walked in and the place was buzzing, steady line at the self order counter but the line moves fast and the drinks appear quick. We ordered the Blueberry Açaí , Shaken Espresso, Brown Sugar Boba Ice Cream, and StarBerry. Each of the drinks were refreshing , tasty and the perfect thirst quencher. Everything is fresh and made in house. The staff is friendly and nice . Love the fun vibe of this place. They also have candy cloud merchandise for purchase at the store. Check out this place ASAP! Highly recommend!

    Candy Cloud started out as a food truck and opened up a storefront this year! It's always a happening place when I go. I love the updated concept of ordering your drinks on the iPad. My favorite drink so far is a special they have only for a limited time called Purple Potion which is taro, sweet cream, brown sugar and boba! They should keep this on their daily menu. I've also tried the strawberry matcha, brown sugar boba, the strawberry lemonade and the ice cream! Everything is so good. During fall they had an apple cider hot drink that was so delish! I hope they bring back the hot drinks! Great place since we don't have many options for good boba drinks in the area!

    This place is pretty good. The way they serve is pretty nice where you digitally put it in on the iPad they have in the store and the decorations and the whole field of this place is pretty cool. The food was OK but really wasn't up to expectations with the price overall good.

    Moving from Florida we were definitely looking for a boba place in the area so we found this place and it's so delicious! They have menus where you can self-build your drink so that was awesome! Nice place will come again

    What a fun place to visit! A Rockford original makes it extra special too! Their drinks are out of this world- whether you want something fruity, a coffee, something indulgent, or a shake - there's many choices. Also it's the first place I've been to that is completely digital ordering. There are no registers or cashiers and completely cashless. When you walk in there are two iPads and you place your order on the touchscreen (or you can order ahead on their website). It's completely state of the art! The ambiance is warm and sleek. The packaging is one of a kind too- your own "pop can" that you get to pop open! It's a completely new concept. I love their blended iced coffee with brown sugar boba - omg so good. The flavor combos are endless.

    Pretzel bites
    Fawn M.

    Such a fun creative caffeine experience!!!!! Highly recommend going to check this shop out. We loved the pretzel bites, the cheese to dip in was AMAZING! We also got their horchata, matcha, and blueberry açaí drinks and wow so yummy and such GREAT prices! This stop really surprised us!

    This place is perfect, with the lack of boba places in the area you wouldn't think that you would find on like this, the environment itself is very peaceful, there is music in the background bar top tables, and a nice couch. From the time you order your drink it does not take long for it to get to you even when it is a bit crowded. The drinks are just as good as the other components of Candy Cloud if not better, you get new seasonal drinks every month and I can't wait to try each of them if I can, they are so creative with the flavors and the names of them, the names and flavors are usually unique to holidays or importance in the month.

    Great menu and prices are reasonable. They do not take cash and no one takes orders. It is all done on a touch screen order pad. The drinks were good but too sweet.

    Blueberry donut ice cream, ice latte, blueberry acai
    Reed S.

    Cool cups, good drinks, and fast service! This place is new, very popular, and has a cool atmosphere. You order on a tablet, they make your order and you pick it up at the counter. The drinks were somewhat pricey but you're paying for the experience as well. The blueberry acai drink is not too sweet and has a unique flavor. The coffee was also good but nothing that you couldn't get anywhere else. (Granted I did not get any drizzle or crazy flavors) overall good branding and cool place. Definitely exciting to have something like this in Rockford

    My boyfriend and I are frequent costumers of this food truck, and we absolutely love it! We usually…read moreorder the noodles and the meat is cooked well and lean. The noodles aren't too greasy but have good flavor, which I personally prefer. The service is great! The people that run the food truck are very kind and are always excited to see their costumers. They make sure you're well taken care of and are quick with getting the fresh food to you. I would definitely recommend if you want an easy, friendly, and yummy experience!

    TL;DR: Food was served quickly, was tasty, and I would eat there again…read more Details: I ordered Vegetables Hibachi, which tasted similar to most of the fast-Japanese food available locally, and I ordered Vegetable Noodles, which is different than what you can get at most of the area fast-Japanese places which mostly serve fried rice with their hibachi fare. The noodles were similar to fettuccini in width and slid easily into my mouth. Portions were filling for both of the items. The dipping sauce was tiny sized, but plenty-and reminded me of Thousand Island salad dressing, but slightly different. The vegetables for both were onions, carrots, broccoli, and some sort of squash/zucchini, all sliced small/mini-bite sized. The spring rolls are the deep-fried kind, and vegetable. Not sure if these come with a dipping sauce. Plenty of my friends seem to enjoy their bubble teas-might try this on a return visit. They also have Rayume sodas. Location is in a parking lot across the street from the Menard's on IL 173, just West of Rockford Speedway. The parking area is not well lit, so beware of the large potholes that will gobble up your tires as quickly as you will gobble up this tasty food in a few parts of the lot, but there is plenty of open, free, parking, and it feels safe. If they are busy, they will give you a pager so you don't need to stand around the trailer after you order and pay (they accept credit cards and cash). I assume the parking lot allows for semi trucks, as it's huge, spacious, and on a state highway/not far from the I-90/I-39/US51 interchange and assumed to be on a truck route. No restroom facilities on site: it's a food truck.
