    the inside of a store
    Sunil R.

    I like Lolli and Pops. They serve a consistent product...super consistent actually. I noticed on this trip that the layout of the stores is exactly the same as the other stores I have been to including where the bags for loose candy to where which candy is displayed. Their corporate deserves props for that! Grabbed some usual chocolates and it brought a smile to my face.

    **A Visit to Candyland Heaven: As narrated by my 8-year-old** Once upon a sunny Saturday, I went to this super-duper amazing candy store in Stonestown Mall called Lolli and Pops with my parents to celebrate my first goal for my soccer team! It was like a double-treat day! When we got there, I couldn't believe my eyes. The store was so colorful and beautiful from the outside. There were huge lollipops, giant gummy bears, and massive chocolate bars in the windows, making me even more excited. We stepped inside, and a super-friendly worker greeted us. They offered to show us around, and we eagerly accepted. They took us through rows and rows of candies, from classics like chocolate bars and gumdrops to fancy candies from Japan and gourmet truffles. But you know what was the most awesome part? It was the candy wall! It was like a magical candy forest! There were lollipops of all sizes and shapes - some as big as candy canes and some as tiny as hearts. And guess what? Cotton candies were there, too, and they had ALL the rainbow colors! There were chocolate bars with all sorts of fillings, like caramel and peanut butter. I couldn't help myself; I just had to try some of the free samples. I picked out a giant lollipop, a bag of cotton candy, and some gummy bears to taste. When I took a bite of that cotton candy, I felt like I was flying in the sky with unicorns. It was so sweet and tangy! And those gummy bears, oh boy, they were so soft and chewy, like little bites of happiness! As we continued exploring the store, I spotted the perfect souvenir to remember this special day - a giant chocolate bar with MY name on it! I knew my friends in school would be super impressed when they saw it. After we finished our candy shopping, we thanked the friendly worker for the tour, and my Dad paid for it all. As we left the store, I couldn't stop smiling, thinking about my first soccer goal and the amazing trip to Lolli and Pops. It was a day filled with sweetness and happiness, and I couldn't wait to return to the candy store again soon. It was indeed the best candy store adventure ever!

    The store is cute. Everything they offer is a craving to be satisfied. The ruler of fancy munchies. The only downside I would say is the price. Snackbox cost round $50.

    This is my favorite candy store! So many different types of candies! I always get the mint mojito gummy bears, strawberry lemonade belts, these big apple sour gummies, and my absolute favorite which are the peach chamoy rings! (Pass on the chamoy gummy worms and the apple chamoy rings) I would recommend getting the reusable jars that they sell here. Before when I would bring the jars back to refill my candy it would cost around $6-8 which is super worth it, but now they changed it so you would get a certain percentage off if u refill your jars. I'm not sure how much they determine the price of the candy to the weight since I feel like if I fill up the candy bags they don't feel that heavy but it ends up costing more than I would expect. You do get points when u sign up for their rewards so that's a plus too.

    This is how they sell toy $10 of truffles. They provide the generic zip lock baggy too. Nothing says class like this.

    Nice selection poor hygiene. In the time of covid to have open bins children can plunge their grubby hands into is in unconscionable. Really disappointed in the packaging of their products. See zip lock bag.

    Bought this on Aug 23. Note the "best by" date... almost a whole month has passed. Boo.

    Had a hankering for a special sweet treat today. Went out of my way to visit this candy store. I don't mind buying the spendy candy usually, since it's so good. Bought a big block of fudge in a plastic wrapper. Brought it home to discover that it's way past the "best by" date. Today is 8/23, and the "best by" date on the wrapper is 7/25. Really crappy that they don't bother to take the expired candy off the shelves. Damn.

    Gummy Bears

    Luckily for me, I have a candy fairy. That's right. One of my good friends always thinks of me when he's out at candy shops. For my birthday, he got me a treat from Lolli and Pops. He gave it to me on Wednesday, September 19th around 6:15pm. It was a very cute bear jar filled with gummy bears. I'm not exactly positive on the flavors, but I think they were the Champagne Light and Champagne Rose. The gummies were soft and chewy, but I found them to be too sweet. And I wished there was a sour element to cut into the sweetness. Cute concept for a candy shop as they have a bunch of alcoholic flavors. But for me, I wished the gummies weren't so sweet. I am curious to try more flavors. Maybe next time I'm at Stonestown, I'll hit this place up.

    Do you remember back in the day when we were all kids and who really loves eating them candy and chocolate!!! Lolli and Pops is that one store at the Stonestown Galleria Shopping Mall that brings back a lot of memories!!! The very 1st time when I walked inside of this Lolli and Pops candy store... Lolli And Pops sort of reminds me of a Disneyland Store it's because the inside of this Lolli And Pops store has very nice decorations!!! And the employees that works here and are very friendly!!! And they are dressed like 1930's style while wearing the old traditional hat!!! The sweet candies isn't that cheap but who cares... I buy their candies anyways how often do I come to this store not that often!!! The things that I bought at this Lolli And Pops store was some mixed gummy bears and another kind of chocolate... The day while I was here I bought myself a Butterscotch Non Alcoholic Beer which tasted really good which was my very 1st time ever drinking it!!! When the next time I come to this Lolli And Pops Store at the Stonestown Galleria Shopping Mall... I definitely would wanna try buying their other kinds of chocolate candies and soda's as well!!!

    Mason jar filled with assorted gummies

    On 6/28/18 I came into the store to look around. I was advised by a sales person on the floor that their gummy bear mason jars just arrived. Fill it up and you can return at a future date and refill the jar for $5.00. So I purchased a jar and filled it up. Paid $12.50 total for candies plus the jar. Today 7/13/18 I returned to the store with my emptied jar. Immediately I'm advised the cost to refill has increased from $5 to $6. In just two weeks time the price has gone up 20% in two weeks. I refilled my jar as that was the intent, but sure felt like bait & switch.

    EXPENSIVE. Don't let the lovely Tiffany blue color take hold of your wallet. I was walking around the mall with my boyfriend one day when I noticed this shop was opened and against his better judgment, my boyfriend let me walk in by myself with my wallet. Their shop is extensive. There's different sections depending on what you're looking for - sections like Asian snacks, alcohol infused chocolates, Germany sweets... etc. One thing I do enjoy about this place is the fact that you're able to grab a bag and fill it with whatever candy you want like the Sweets Factory used to do, although I do think it's pricier here. They even have these cute canisters that you can bring back to refill - but they're small and pricey and I just don't think it's worth the money. You can buy a bigger canister at Michael's for less than what they sell it for here. Smh. I was so caught up in their beauty that I barely checked prices which is a personal problem, I know. Overall, the idea is nice. The price is just too much for the amount you're getting.

    For aesthetic, nostalgia, and instagramable moments is why anyone would come here. At least that's what my reasoning is for ever checking in here. When I have time to kill I usually come here to take pics, get free samples, or look at old candies from childhood. Lolli and Pops is located inside Stonestown Galleria right by the Apple Store on the 1st floor. There's really nothing wrong with this store in terms of customer service or content. The employees are very nice and attentive. The store looks really clean and organized, the ambiance is that of a Willy Wonka come to life. The main problem are prices. The items here are super overpriced. The DIY Japanese Poppin Cooking are $12, which in a Daiso or even a regular Asian store you can get it for under $5. Kit Kats are 2 dollars more than regular pricing as well. Some of the candies that you can get per pound look quite old as well. There was one time I was here craving for gummy bears and as I reach in with the candy shovel, it was all stuck together and kind of hardened. Same with the chocolates malt balls as well. Their mochi freezer looks like my grandmas old freezer, there was so much freezer burn, you can tell it hasn't been touched or replaced for a long time and not fresh at all. Overall, you go here for the nostalgic appeal more than anything or to find candies you don't usually find in stores. In terms of coming here for just some cheap snacks, Id skip it. This store is set up more for kids, and reminiscing adults, than an everyday candy shop. You're better off at a Daiso for cheap and quality candy snacks or even a Target.

    One of the best purchases for your health!

We originally went to the location near Union Square, thinking we'd be able to grab pastries and hot chocolate, only to realize it's primarily a retail shop with chocolate bars and merchandise. We ended up making our way to the Valencia Street location, and I'm so glad we did. We learned that it used to be the original factory before they outgrew the space. Production has since moved a few blocks away, and now this location offers classes, a café, and plenty of chocolate treats. While we were there, a chocolate-making class was in session, and it was fun to watch part of it. The instructor even came over to chat with us and answer a few questions, which was such a nice personal touch. We ordered the brownie bite flight along with a hot chocolate, and both were fantastic. The brownie flight was rich, flavorful, and a fun way to sample different chocolates. The hot chocolate came with a tiny cookie that was absolutely delicious. At first, we were a little disappointed because we thought our hot chocolate was supposed to come with a marshmallow and didn't see one. When we mentioned it, the instructor smiled and showed us a toppings station we had completely missed. There were homemade marshmallows, flavored sugar cubes, and other little extras you could add yourself. He even encouraged us to take a few extra marshmallows, and they were some of the best I've ever had. One thing to know before you go is that Dandelion Chocolate focuses on high-quality chocolate that isn't overly sweet. If you're expecting the sugary milk chocolate flavor of a candy bar, this is a different experience. The chocolate has a richer, more complex flavor, and we really enjoyed trying something different. Between the friendly staff, delicious treats, and unique experience, I'd definitely recommend adding it to your itinerary--just make sure you head to the café location if you're looking for food and drinks!

I really like that you can choose exactly how many of each flavor you want in your box. I didn't realize that before, but it's a great option because you could literally get one of everything if you wanted to try them all. I chose orange, citron/lemon, caramel, earl grey, espresso, raspberry, and hazelnut. There was also a vegan raspberry option since the regular raspberry had sold out for the day, and honestly you couldn't tell the difference. It was delicious. I also tried the lemon in store, and the raspberry was my favorite. One small thing is that once they're bagged up, it can be a little hard to tell which flavor is which since they look pretty similar on the outside. Not a big deal, just something to keep in mind if you're trying to remember what's what. The owner mentioned he's had the shop for 30 years, which you can feel when you're in there. He took the time to neatly tie up the box and even gave me two complimentary pieces. The shop itself is tiny and charming with a good variety of flavors. A friend of mine has been coming here since childhood, and now I understand the hype. I'll definitely be back.

One of these days, I will try one of the boxed chocolates they have. The person who helped me was super nice and gave me an honest opinion of the desserts on display. I was able to easily share my fears and thoughts. It was nice to be able to talk to someone about the items and understand what I was explaining. It wasn't too busy for a Thursday so maybe that's why he was able to take the time. All of the pastries I tried were beautiful, delicate, and as tasty as the display. 1. Peanut butter bar : I wasn't sure what to expect with this. It reminded me of a candy bar but 10xs better. The creamy chocolate and caramel with the crunch from the bits of nuts were perfect. It is a little rich. I wish I had a nice glass of milk or coffee to complete it. 2. Dandelion chocolate chip cookie : Nice buttery cookie that had a perfect crunch to it. It holds up perfect and it has perfect balance of chocolate. This is something my friend would love because she loves chocolate chip cookies but it didn't have too much if that makes sense. 3. Double chocolate cookie : This was chocolatey like he had explained but it didn't have the strong dark chocolate taste at the end. Personally, I think I prefer the chocolate chip cookie. 4. S'more : This by far was my favorite and I did not share. He had grabbed a handheld torch to roast the marshallow. What came out was perfection and it made the ride home in one piece. It tasted just like a s'more you would make when you're camping. It was fresh and marshmallow gooeyness that makes a delightful mess with every bite. I highly recommend this one if you love smores.

I'd never had brittle like it... it was a thin layer of crunchy, flaky toffee sandwiched between coatings of the richest, velvetiest dark chocolate. Even though I meant for this to be a gift, I snagged a few pieces for myself for the drive home. I didn't know how legendary their hot chocolate was until reading these reviews, so now I have another good reason to go back!
