Old West Antiques Gallery & Candy Store - Best Huckleberry shake ever! - Antiques Near Me - Darby, Montana

The candy store and antiques is a great place to find all your candy fixings and apparel. I would give those stores a 5/5, if the 1/5 is for the way we were treated in the cafe. Our waitress was very kind and helpful but it was the other waitress that came up to us and demanded documentation for our dog. Legally, you are not supposed to do that and gave us a lecture on our service dog, and how he was not well trained and not welcomed. For some reason, this whole county has a stigma and vendetta out for dogs. Again, legally you are NOT ALLOWED to ask for documentation at all. That was her first problem. I would like to also mention, our dog is an ESA AND a psychiatric service dog. When we mentioned he was a service animal and and ESA she cut us off and said "ESA is not considered a service dog" which we know. She did not let us finish and instead of allowing us to explain, which legally we do not have too, she told us to remove our dog. I have never felt the way she made us feel in there. I hope y'all train your staff better because under ADA we could of filed a lawsuit. Our dog is well trained, well behaved, and is a service dog. We felt unwelcomed and we left. read more

Great and friendly service. A bit pricey, but ok for a once in a while visit. Kids love this place. Great candy, although wish there was more old candies and less current candies. The antique side was very interesting to see. Very cool stuff in there. Fun time. read more

Did not explore the antique mall side or the restaurant. This review is for the candy and fudge area. Old West has a great selection of fudge and old-style candies. I picked up some dark chocolate bites and some rocky road fudge to bring back home. Both were flavorful with lots of chocolate and filling. The lady at the desk was very nice and was genuinely interested in how my road trip was going. If I ever return to the Bitterroot, I'd return to see the antique side in addition to getting more of that sweet fudge. read more

Absolutely the worst coffee one can ever have. Being Italian and a New Yorker who grew up working in Bakeries and cafes. I thought I would give it a tray. the day before we bought a cute item in the store. This morning , I returned and ordered a Americano and Mocha. It was made a young girl who was probably about 15 years old. She seemed to also be training another person on how to make coffee. The sign said a 12 oz americano was $2.25, I was charged $3. The Mocha or allegedly mocha was $4. Definitely not worth the price for what would be 50 cent NYC street coffee. It took awhile to make the coffee and when i got my americano coffee i asked where the cream was and i was a directed to a counter that had fake cream powder to put in the coffee. This stuff is artificial and is absolutely disgusting. The Mocha tasted like badly nixed fast food mocha. McDonalds Mocha is way superior as is McDonald natural fair trade coffee which i as a senior can get for a buck or less. This cafe was truly a disappointment. It was $7 that went into the trash can also it was not the cleanest place, people were using the candy scoopers over and over and then dropping in a big owl, not even sanitized. Yuck! Same with jelly bean samples and also no social distancing read more

Great place to grab a quick bite to eat. I was pleasantly surprised. I got the #6 breakfast combo and I would def order it again! The staff was very friendly and the restrooms were clean. They also have huckleberry ice cream and huckleberry jams/treats if you're looking for souvenirs. read more

Old West Antiques Gallery & Candy Store - #6 Breakfast combo. I was too hungry and forgot to take a pic before I bit into it lol The bread was so soft and the potatoes were yummy! - Antiques Near Me - Darby, Montana

What a great place to enjoy a coffee, mini breakfast and deli as well as candy and shopping all in a nearly block long store. They a very friendly and their service is super. One of the best places I have ever been in throughout my travels. read more

If your looking for your run of the mill "tourists stores" this would be it. Two stars because of the made in USA candy shop and slight collection of western themed antiques (way over priced!!! Advice - hit a local thrift store). Don't be fooled... Lots of made in China gifts. Which no offense, but hey, let's support local artists. Not worth the drive from Hamilton; so skip the shopping and head for the trail heads. read more

Tried the deli in the old west candy store. I ordered a beagle with huckleberry cream cheese and huckleberries, and a pastrami sandwich. The pastrami was the best I have ever eaten. It had a rich smokey flavor. My only complaint is, it needed a pickle to cut the richness. All in all I'm ordering this again. read more

We stopped by on our way to Stevensville. The coffee was delicious, bought a few souvenirs to take back to California. Bought some chocolates,huckleberry jams, and huckleberry taffy. All delicious! What stood out to me was Tony! He provided exceptional customer service! He is very funny and converted a long tired trip into a great morning! Stopping by "for coffee" was one of the best part of our trip! Thank you again Tony! -California girls- read more

We found the candy store VERY over priced for the selection. Cute inside, but common types candies. Most of which can be purchased at any local grocery or convenience store. It is only a small part of the business with several other shops. Many things to look at within the business and a nice selection of Montana made products. read more

Love this place! Every time we are in Darby we visit. This past weekend I had the pleasure of trying their pumpkin spice latte and it was amazing!!! It wasn't over powerful on the pumpkin and tasted even better than i could ever imagine. Their fudge is great and made in-house and there are so many Knick knacks i could spend all day there. Plus my son got a cool dinosaurs stuffy with a Montana bandana. Can't wait to be back read more

Have been visiting this shop for the past three years now, and it's awesome. Probably one of the main attractions in Darby. Great selection of art and other items, and their candy store is AWESOME. Pretty much any kind of candy you could want is there (this is especially great because there aren't a lot of other places nearby with the same options). Rosie is wonderful and we always enjoy seeing her when we go in. The kids love her, too! What a fantastic business! read more

Walked in, cute place and the two younger workers were friendly and helpful. My friend asked for 8 pieces of honeycomb chocolate and the guy put it in a container, weighed it and told her it was $9.58. I thought, oh that's a good price, so I asked for 4 pieces. We both also got two small pieces of fudge each and at the register (the young girl was now ringing me up) my total came to $24.00! She said the fudge was $10 and the 4 pieces of honeycomb was $14. I said, wait, that can't be right and indicated my friend's chocolate was only $9, why was mine $14 for half of the amount of the same thing? The girl said he did hers wrong and proceeded to scold and berate him in front of us, telling him they just raised the prices to $35/pound!! Then she said we couldn't have it for the $9 price, and she'd put the chocolate back in the case, and we thought, WHAT??? With COVID, you're putting the chocolate back instead of letting us have it for the price he quoted it for (wrote it in black marker on the package). Then the owner came over and said loudly, these are kids who you can't blame for making mistakes, I'll handle these two women (as if we were being very difficult). At THAT point I got MAD, while I had stayed calm, polite and quiet the whole time before that, even told my friend not to get upset, but when the owner was soooo rude, I got rude back, paid for the two pieces of fudge for $10 and walked out. The owner then started complaining about me to my friend while she paid for her now $13.32 priced 8 pieces of honeycomb (mind you, they were previously trying to charge me $14 for 4 pieces of the same chocolate). WHAT A RIP OFF store, and RUDE OWNER! read more

Disappointed that neither of the staff members were wearing masks. That is the ultimate in customer abuse. It was our annual trip to the store and for the first time bought nothing. read more

I have lived in Darby for 20 years. It is not always easy to find something to eat on the go. I love the deli and more so because it's locally sourced ingredients. read more

Really wanted to love the huckleberry truffle at $25.99 a pound but it was flavorless. Not impressed.

An unpleasant ending to our wonderful camping trip. We decided to camp so we didn't spend a bunch of money this weekend. Stopped to get some candy for our road trip home and it cost us $50 for six little bags of candy. Buyer beware. read more

Every time we go through Darby we stop here. Love everything about the store. The people are GREAT! Always nice. Always helpful. The variety of items makes looking around an adventure...and the prices are EXCELLENT! In many cases far lower than I would have expected. We rarely leave empty-handed and, if nothing else, always find some candy to take back home. Thanks everybody...and thanks for the beautiful angel. Her meaning for us will never wane. read more

I will not be patronizing this business again. I ended up purchasing chocolate after asking the gal at the counter the price per pound. To which she replied "$5.99 per pound". I got about half a bag of chocolate and it was near closing so they were clearly rushing my mom, grandma, and I out of the store, attempting to ring us all up at the same time. I will admit it was my fault for not realizing exactly what I had been charged, but when I got home at looked at my receipt it said $39.30. I called the business assuming something else must have been wrung up on my tab accidentally. The woman on the phone was very abrasive after I asked if there may have been a mistake and told me chocolate is $25.99 per pound! I explained that, had I known that I probably wouldn't have gotten what I got, but I understand and accept what I paid. I also expressed that the woman working the counter fumbled a bit when we were there and seemed new (as a senior employee seemed to be training her while we were there) and asked that maybe she should be trained more on their pricing as to avoid further confusions like this. She told me "Sometimes people hear what the want to hear". So I promptly hung up. I'm sorry, but customer service is everything. I felt I wasn't abrasive, I didn't ask for any type of refund, I was trying to offer a solution so that she wouldn't get someone angrier than me about a simple mistake later on. Not impressed. read more

My favorite candy store ever! My favorite Montana gift shop ever! Rosie and Gene are super people and great for our community!
