How am I just hearing about this place? This place has such…read morea "regular" vibe to it. It's an order at the counter and pickup at the counter place and man they know what they're doing. We went for ice cream and fries and man oh man - does this place have just that! The ice cream selections were amazing and the fries were perfectly salty and crunchy. I saw they had a nice sized soup menu so had to try out the minestrone. We tried the death by chocolate, Cookie Monster and the Superman for ice cream and wow did they all pack an awesome flavor. What I really booted about it this place was that they had toys and drawing for all our littles to keep them entertained. They even had a little Christmas craft bag for us! It was very thoughtful and extremely nice to have for our littles. It's small things like this that really show me how much they value their customers. Amazing place. We will be back!

No matter what you get it's going to taste good, and they are the only place around that has mastered a chocolate dipped cone (better than Dairy Queen I might add). They have a lot of seating and there's a nice park next door where you can eat your ice cream or just hang out.

Great ice cream and great people and I do recommend this to people if they are visiting.read more

Penguin Palace is summer. Ice cream stands like are a part of Ohio culture and Penguin Palace is…read moreone of the good ones. Good soft serve ice cream, fun sundae, and a few extras. Their ice cream is four stars. Nothing wrong with it, but nothing to blow you away. The Peanut Butter Delight, the Funky Monkey, and the Pecan Joy are excellent sundaes. The kids like the Blue Moon and Unicorn sundaes. Dole Whip is great if you have dietary restrictions. It hits the spot if you want soft serve. But the atmosphere and the staff are everything. This a part of the neighborhood. When we eat here, literally half the time we see neighbors or classmates. People walk up or drive over. They bring their dogs and everyone wants to pet them. The kids play games while they wait. The staff is mostly local students and they are patient, friendly, and good at their jobs. They listen while my kids take 45 seconds to explain their order. They always remember extra napkins. They'll throw a cone on top of the sundae. Penguin Palace understands the assignment. They are an important part of our neighborhood and an essential part of summer.

Maumee Valley Chocolate and Candy is wonderful…read more We were walking along the riverfront park and I saw a sign that said chocolate, so I walked over here to check it out. This store has so much candy! Lots of retro candy, plenty of foreign candy (multiple flavors of Kit Kats including flavors of chunky kit kats, hi chews and some other Asian candies (a bunch of options, but I can get all of them in Chicago's chinatown so I didn't pay attention), Aero bars, Terry's oranges, and other British candy. There were so many retro candy options, plus every kind of candy you've ever heard of. (I eat too much candy, and know a lot of types of candy and I was blown away by the options). They also had lots of types of pop, but I didn't pay much attention to them. I wanted my sugar in chocolate form. I am a chocoholic, and I was very happy to find this place. I got some creams from the case (dark chocolate raspberry cream, orange cream, strawberry cream, vanilla cream). They were delicious. These are better than my former favorite Fannie May (which sadly isn't as good as it used to be). I also got some chocolates in the bulk chocolate section. The chocolate covered cherries are amazing as is the chocolate covered orange peel (though jellier than I was expecting inside). The chocolate covered pecans are fine (but I don't usually get these so maybe chocolate covered pecans aren't my thing). The store is cute! It had a Lego Willy Wonka set! This place is in a good location. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Maumee Valley Chocolate and Candy is Toledo's best retro candy store. Hell, I'll go so far as to…read moresay that it's the best candy store in town. Period. There was a time that title belonged to Boyd's, but Boyd's has been slipping for a while now. Walk in here and you'll find every kind of candy that you could want. The candy selection is flat-out unparalleled. Bun bars, Necco wafers, saucers, Zero bars, salt water taffy, the cheap-but-still-damn-good Willy Wonka stuff - you name it. If I ever saw it in a candy store as a kid, it's sitting on a shelf in this place. They've got the "finer" items, too: solid milk chocolate, actual truffles, bonbons, the works. Sugar free stuff? Yeah, that too. And the retro/craft pop ("soda," for those of you who never learned the proper word) is outstanding. Then, for a little depth, throw in a few kitschy tin signs and magnets, and few retro (think Scooby-Doo) lunchboxes. Oh yeah...they scoop their own ice cream too. Five stars, no regrets!
