They have so many different themed merch like tv shows, Harry Potter, Hello Kitty, Care Bares, Mulang, Mario, and a billion things that I don't know about. I went here before Valentine's Day and ended up finding a Super Mario Fire stuffy for my hubby. He loves it! They also had very unique and funny cards! They have tons of candy of every variety. I found ring pop gummies here & my husband ate them in a day. Tons of toys & stuffed animals. One thing I will say is their prices were a bit high. But I imagine with cost of operation these days it makes sense and I am in a spot where I can support this small business (reasonably). It is a super fun store. Use caution bringing a small child into this store, as there will be several things within their reach and they will probably want to get their hands on everything. I honestly wouldn't bring a kid younger than 8 or 9 in this store. If you need gift inspiration, come to this cute store!

Eleanor's assortment is incredible! I've been a couple of times, but this time most recently with…read morethe Murder Mystery Crawl (hosted by Saline Main Street and Mind the Gap Theater!) As part of the crawl, we got to try their incredible truffles. They're giant Nespresso-Vertuo-pod-like domes. I tried the peanut butter and it was a peanut butter lover's DREAM. I also squealed in delight that they carry Peelerz (IYKYK!!). I also ended up trying their gelato, which is from Iorio Gelato. I was informed that they're local and used to have a storefront. It was....pretty bad unfortunately. It was my first gelato in states after our trip to Italy and the texture (icy) and flavor (did not taste like pistachio) unfortunately were completely wrong, so I don't recommend trying the pistachio gelato at this time. Maybe their other flavors are better, but I'll stick to the truffles and packaged candy here.

We…read morehave recently written about the Candy Manufactory for work too so I was curious to actually see it! I've never actually had any of Zingerman's candy bars so I bought two full size bars, plus a small version of the Cashew Cow. I think both the Zzang and Peanut Butter Crush were equally good. The store also has non-Zingerman's brand candies, such as Venchi, which is also a high-end brand. The shop doubles as a coffee shop, as well, and I think may have also had some small food items, but don't quote me on that. Overall, I would return the next time I'm in town.

The service was fine and they were just your standard checkout people. It was bright, well lit and lots of interesting things to look at. It was very busy.

Even though there was a lot of things, it was more for the look of it like some really good candies I think. I prefer candies that have less artificial ingredients and maybe imported from Europe versus some of the things that they have which are kind of more for fun than to Eat

Insanely cute chocolate shop down in Nickels Arcade [which is a tiny alley with an assortment of…read moreshops like a vintage store and clothing store]. They have an array of flavors of bon bons (chocolates with a filling inside) lined up behind the glass case including fudge brownie, peanut butter and jam, and much more unique combinations that I paid no attention to because i was enamored with the rest of the shop. They had all sorts of knick knacks, stickers (some were for free!), mini greeting cards, shirts, tote bags, cool shaped chocolates on the shelves. Each bon bon is $3.50 and it gets individually packaged in a tiny box. If you're feeling extra, you can buy a cute cardboard carrier case for your chocolate treasures ($2). Otherwise you can still get it packaged in a cute box for free (pictured). As for the actual bon bons: - The fudge brownie one had a deep chocolate flavor with only about 35% sweetness which was quite dismaying. - The PB&J one was sweeter which I liked and the jam added a bit of tartness. Comparatively, this bon bon had more complexity than the dark bitterness of the fudge brownie.

Huge selection of gifts, including some fun Schitt's Creek stuff and Golden Girls, and also lots of candy and chocolate. They had Coffee Crisp which surprised me, it's a Canadian chocolate bar and I've never seen it outside of Canada. They are still requiring masks as of right now (6/13/21) which was nice, also. Only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that it's a bit pricey - most of the gifts I saw were $9.99 and up, for small things, and they had some Sanders one-piece chocolates for 75c (I've seen them 25-50c in other stores). Otherwise, this was a fun store to browse and I will be back at some point.

Walked in and quickly greeted - i had about three people ask if i need anything; literally were chatting with other customers and making everyone being seen. I was coming in for a specific item which i found and then of course i had to browse a little. I think someone was doing inventory or just general work and i ask him about the taste of item; he said "take a sample" and you should've seen my face because other stores dont want you to try again unfortunately. This was a big selling point for me - i'm not going to go crazy but this allow customers to be able to explore a little more. Pricing is pretty much the same - customer service is WINNING here. Well i return; yes i definitely will be back. Side note - they sell doggy treats too! Happy Eating!!!
