Stopped in today for a quick fudge buy. This was actually my first time here after driving by this…read moreplace for three years. This was three years wasted. I walked into this quaint shop and was welcomed by three workers. Super sweet and welcoming. I went straight to the fudge and they had a lot of varieties to pick from. I asked the nice lady behind the counter what are some of the most popular and she started listing some. I first decided on one square of chocolate peanut butter and after looking more, the worker suggested I should get one more. Yes, she was right! Got some cookies and cream fudge too. They last well in the fridge and more to share. The fudge was priced very well. I was expecting more but it was a great price. Had some fudge tonight and they both are delicious!

It's not every day that I think, "Huh, I want some fudge," but why not?! It's delicious and the fudge here is fantastic. The customer service was phenomenal, and it smells like your next happy place. I'm happy to add it to my list of places to stop at whenever we visit NE. We had a nut allergy in our group, and they were very accommodating and told us about their protocol to prevent cross contamination (washing blades and pans in between batches) and packaged the items for our nut allergy friend separately. Although there isn't a 100% certainty, I'm happy to say our friend did not need an epi pen and was thrilled with his fudge!

I ordered a banana cream pie flavor which I thought the description had Nilla wafers, but it was only a banana flavor but still good! My kid enjoyed her cone. Portions were huge.

That said, I succumbed recently as we were having friends over for dinner and although I made a dessert to serve, I thought it would be nice to have a few chocolates out in a dish as well. I bought a small box of chocolate covered caramel squares made by this local family-run Massachusetts company. Their website says the business started in 1979 and they now have the second generation of family members working there with the third generation (kids now) waiting in the wings. I do love a local family-owned and run business. The particular chocolates I bought were: "Vanilla Caramels" and I would describe what I got as very good quality chocolate covering delicious and creamy soft caramel inside. The shop is in Rowley which is north of Boston...we live south of Boston so getting there would be a haul. Fortunately our in-town local family-run market sells Winfrey's chocolates. I am glad I took a chance on these as we all found them to be fresh and really delicious...in fact, so good they were all eaten that night. I saw in another Yelp review that someone especially loves their chocolate peppermint bark...I saw that option in the store too and while I know a lot of people love the mint-chocolate combo..I am not one of them. But for the holidays, I am guessing this will be a big seller. These chocolates would make for a nice hostess gift or stocking stuffer too and I will keep that in mind going forward this holiday season.

The majority of the store is candy, lots of chocolates, fudge, and old Fashion candy we grew up with. Definitely a fun place to shop! We both ordered different ice cream flavors and of course different toppings. I ordered two different scoops - Maple Walnut and Coffee Oreos. My husband had one scoop of Chocolate Peanut Butter. I had to load on the Marshmallow cream (East Coast topping that I miss). There are plenty of tables inside and a patio area outside. Nice sized parking lot with ample parking.

They are famous for their Gibralters and their Blackjacks - I of course, took home both. The Gibralters come in lemon and peppermint flavor - they are big pieces of candy that are made to be broken and shared. I also took home two of the blue raspberry flavored fruit jellies which didn't make it very far - I'm a sucker for anything blue raspberry flavored. The inside of Ye Olde Pepper Companie is very small, the line took up the entire store and people actually had to wait outside until people left before they could come in. The line moved quickly though and they were very organized when helping customers. There are no tables to sit at, just tables, cases and shelves of candy! They offered chocolates, fudge, Saltwater Taffy, caramel corn and even brittles. Is it the best candy in the world? No, but I love knowing that I got to visit and purchase candy from the oldest one in America. Staff were very friendly and they gave me a See's Candy vibe minus the cute little outfits. I will definitely visit again if I get the chance! Check out a part of history!

The prices are a little steeper than I expected, BUT you do get a lot for your money. I ordered a kiddie and got 2 scoops on a plain cone! I decided on chocolate cookie monster and OMG it was amazing, exactly what I've always been searching for in a flavor. Chocolate ice cream, chocolate cookie swirl and cookie dough pieces. Amazing! The girls at the counter were so friendly, knew the details of every flavor and were super helpful. Love love love, don't listen to the negative reviews because you HAVE to give this place a try!

They also sell chocolates and gifts, adding to the "fun little shop" feel as soon as you walk in. I went specifically for ice cream because I was looking for a nearby ice cream shop, and this one caught my eye. It wasn't too crowded when I visited, and the staff was relaxed, friendly, and helpful while getting my scoop ready. I ordered a cookies-and-cream-style flavor with a blue base and cookie crumbles, and it was exactly what I needed on a hot Friday afternoon during a Massachusetts heat wave. I got the smallest (pixie, 4oz) size, and it was plenty for me. Overall, it's a very cute, kitschy little shop that's easy to pop into if you're in town. I wish I'd had more time to explore the gifts and chocolates, but even just stopping in for ice cream was a fun treat.
