    Some of the candy dispensaries are not clean . I also found the clerk to be on her phone too long

    Sour belts. Strawberry, Mango, Apple

    They had exactly what I was looking for.... sour belts! And the best part is that they had all kinds of flavors from strawberry to mango!!! Due to covid, they no longer have the thongs or scoops for the candies. You have to ask staff to give you clean thongs or scoopers to get your candy by weight. Spent approximately $5 for 3/4 of a pound of sour belts. And it felt very nostalgic and reminds me of my childhood. So I was very happy they had sour belts available! The store also had salt water taffy, other gummies, chocolates, Carmel apples, and chocolate covered strawberries. Other pre-packaged chocolates that you can buy at the grocery stores too!

    Came across the Candy Factory walking around near the pier. Omg Kid Candy Heaven. Lots of different flavors of taffy and lots of old school faves. If you have a sweet tooth and your in town this is the place to stop by at, I am sure you will find what you are looking for. Picked up some goodies to bring home. Oh and the fudge was so yummy. They even offered samples. Good deal. Yum!

    Huge selection. And a number of candies that bring me back to my childhood. Like Fizz, buttons, and the little plastic bottles with liquid inside. But, probably very similar to other candy stores in the area. What made me come into this shop was the Disney characters in neon lights.

    Candy I bought that totaled $5.00.

    Everytime I come to Monterey I stop here as a tradition to pick up taffy but it seems this time it was little pricey. I bought a little over a handful of taffy and other candies and the total was $5.00. I may have to stop this tradition because didn't seem right to me to have paid that amount for such little candy

    We asked for a refund and the lady was extremely rude and told us no refunds and didn't even apologize for what we found!

    You're not going to believe what we found in our candy! We kindly asked for a refund quickly after we purchased the candy and the lady who sold us the candy was absolutely rude and unprofessional, she didn't care and told us NO REFUND! We are absolutely horrified! View the photos of what we found. I wouldn't even give them this one star that I was forced to give in order to post this!

    Another place like Candy Land and Candy Baron. Same thing format as these places: grab a basket and fill it with from the many barrels of candies they have around the store, then pay by the pound at the end. They also sell fudge and Slurpee's. As many of you have guessed, probably more expensive per oz. in places like these than if you bought them from Target or Safeway. But kids will love places likes these, and its a kick watching their eyes pop out when they look into the store, and run up and down the aisles.

    No joke after spending 15$ on a small bag of candy there was a dried bug stuck to my spree!!! Barf!!! Never again!!!

    All the candy is stale and yucky. Unreasonable prices for gross candy and was disappointed.

    ***Please read before going.***…read more Be aware that there are no prices for any of the macaroons in the store. My wife and I went in and ordered 2 truffles, and 10 macaroons. Our total came out to $100... $100!!! I literally left wondering what they heck we ordered.. Now, we're not saying they're not tasty. Although I will say they are nowhere near worth the ~$7 per macaroon. The lady at the front was nice, although she seemed to try and pressure us into buying more and more flavors. Which makes sense- because they expensive as hell. I wish we had read further reviews and asked ahead of time how much they cost. My coworker makes macaroons and they taste incredible- much better than these. Learn from our mistake!

    DO NOT AND I MEAN DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! The owner was super rude and we didn't even go in and…read moredidn't even try to go in so that should tell you a lot. She told us to move away from the front of the store when we were just taking a rest from walking on the SIDEWALK....yes the SIDEWALK LOL not even in front of her store. So we said we are not actually and she continued to say "if your waiting for someone in the other store go wait over there" keep in mind no one was in her store and I been reading so many reviews of this shop and her and seems like this isn't the first time she has been rude to people honestly this lady should not even have a shop
