Who doesn't love sweets/candy?!?! Well, I met someone once who hates cake but no one is judging her :) As for me, give me all the chocolate (milk not dark). Let's get into this review.... I visited for the first time on a Friday evening in early October 2024. I never knew this candy store existed so it was fun to check it out. I had just finished dinner at Pizza 216 down the street so as I was walking back to my car, I stumbled upon Rocket Fizz. My friend who was with me has been here before and said she loved the candy shop. We briefly decided to stop in to browse, mostly because I was curious and wanted to visit. All the bright colours from the outside looking inside enticed me to enter and will probably entice you too (see my attached photos). SWEETS GALORE -- If you enjoy sweets/candy then this is your sugar heaven! You'll find all sorts of chocolate, soft drinks (soda/pop), chips, gum, etc. They sell many drinks and chips from Asia that have unique flavours (something you may find in Japan or Korea) so I thought that was cool. I saw plenty of bubble tea drinks and traditional soft drinks such as Coke and orange flavoured drinks. I only browsed for about 5 minutes with my friend but I ended up buying some taffy's (chewy sweets) which cost 15 cents each. Most of their chocolate bars were an average cost of $6+ for a small size. I also bought a "Hubba Bubba" (bubblegum) that is shaped as tape so it's called Bubble Tape. If you have kids or a niece and nephew, bring them here as they will love it even though your dentist might not. I had fun browsing and while I wanted to buy a unique sweet/candy item, I just did not feel like spending too much money right then. The two store associates working that evening were friendly and answered all my questions. I'll certainly be back as I'm a sweet tooth. **** GOAL of 150 reviews in 2024 - 128/150 total reviews in 2024 - 777 total overall Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 9 December 2024 read more

I came here on a Sunday and it was empty inside. It could be the area as downtown that was dead. I really like sweets so I had to check it out. They have all different types of sweets that you can imagine but double the price of what it would normally costs. I can get it cheaper at Walmart or Target. But I decided to get the salt water taffy as that seemed like a great deal as it was 15 cents a piece. I liked the different flavors thar were offered, but I limited myself. Overall it was nice walking around and seeing what they have. read more

Super fun experience with a unique candy and soda selection! There's definitely something here for everyone! I think it's a great experience to come in and look for something new to try or maybe even look for a candy you can't find elsewhere. Customer service is excellent! I went in, I was greeted immediately, and felt like I was included in on their conversation from across the store- super welcoming! I even asked a question because a certain candy popped into my head and I asked if they had it (they did!) and the employee was able to help me! Fun experience! read more

What an awesome shop! Stopped in while walking around Cleveland for the night before a podcast show.

Rocket Fizz is a franchise w/ this being the only Cleveland spot. They have every possible soda flavor you could ever think of. Not to mention the tons of weird candy & chocolate concoctions they sell. Lotsa funny stuff. Whole store was 25% off. I heard they might be moving store closer to playhouse square. We bought some cool coconut cubes in mango water called Jubes. They are like nothing I've tried. Sweet slippery & gummy. Also got several soda varieties on clearance. Prices can be kinda high but it's all novelties. Only complaint is location on Euclid, so almost no parking. read more

My inner 12 year old was in MAJOR heaven in this store. I saw ALL of the candies I ate when I was growing up. I'm so happy I walked past this store and decided to go in. The store will not disappoint you. They have everything you could possibly want from different flavored kit-kats to Pokémon candy!!! There is literally something in here for every candy lover!!! ENJOY!!!! read more

We discovered this place on a whim just walking around downtown. This place is awesome if you're into the nostalgic feeling of being a kid again in your favorite candy shop. They have so many different candies that I haven't seen in at least 20 years. Their selection of soda pop is unmatched, my fiancé and I saw at least 100 different flavors ranging from absolutely delicious to make you raise your eyebrow out of crazy curiosity. We opted for a Pirates Piss (tasted like juicy fruit gum), a strawberry cheesecake, a mustard flavor (and yes, it's like straight out of a squeeze bottle), and blueberry rocket. All of them were great in their own way and we will definitely be back! read more

My kids really loved this shop. There are one million soda flavors -- my kids got "grass soda" and bought "mustard soda" for a friend. Super-cute decor - lots of photo ops - and all kinds of current, rare, and old-fashioned candy. read more

I had a great experience going here and ordering some fun stuff for my family members. Brought back so much memories to see and order some good candy. Will definitely be going back read more

Imagine every soda ever made and then check out Rocket Fizz to witness it. The entire perimeter of the store is loaded with soda and a large selection of candy. If you can think of a soda I can almost guarantee that they have it there. I personally came here for the candy and was impressed with the selection that they had. I love trying different candies that can't be found in a typical grocery store or gas station and if you do too then I would check this place out. There is also a selection of toys and wall art available for purchase. read more

I would seriously go to Cleveland just to visit this amazing candy shop. It's huge. It's a happy place. It's fun. It's SO colorful. It's overwhelming. It's dangerous. The varieties of sodas lined up perfectly all around the store make up the "base" of the decor...providing a place for the eye to go before meandering up the many layers of other delightful offerings. There's loose bin candy. There's retro candy from back in the day. There are oddball things...like crunchy crickets (no, thanks!). My personal favorite? The area with the overseas/non-American candies that are nearly impossible to find stateside. I was on my way to visit family...so when I stumbled on the gummy pizzas and the chocolate eggs with the "surprise" candy toy inside...I grabbed 7 of each (one of each per kid). The gummy pizzas were adorable..little pieces of (fake) fruit that the kids demolished as soon as they go their hands on them. We picked up a couple of treats for ourselves...I tried the chocolate mint M&M's and we got a strawberry delfa/broadway roll (which is like a flat, broad, oddly smelling twizzler-like concoction). Yes - the candy purchase was more than dinner for 2. Whatever - totally worth it. read more

This was quite a fun find. So many options for drinks and lot so candy to choose from. Definitely not the largest selection I've seen but it was funt o look around. Not only were there candy but lots of posters and tin signs. Those were for sale too and they added a lot of flair to the location. If you have time you could spend a lot of time choose out candies and sodas to try. One thing I liked was that you could choose 4 or 6 pack of sodas. There's a huge selection , some in the fridge and some not. Definitely a fun spot to stop by. read more

Quirky and fun soda and candy shop in downtown Cleveland. The selection was huge with something interesting everywhere you turn. Bins of self serve candy and tin signs line the walls while floor displays have all kinds of candy and toys from the old to the knew, cute to the silly. The pop selection was also crazy. I get kinda grossed out with these places that have so many bottled sodas because the flavors just get weird. Cucumber, King Kong, I swear we saw a dog slobber flavor. I know they are supposed to be fun but thinking of these flavors doesn't exactly make me want to buy something to eat! Definitely check this place out if you're walking around downtown Cleveland, everyone will find something they like! read more

We were visiting the nearby Arcade when this place caught our eye. Popped inside to become awestruck with everything. The metal signs on the wall. The line of taffy unlined by a multitude of bizarre drink flavors. There were so many things I wanted to buy to bring back home, but I was so high from all the sensory overload that I didn't need a sugar rush on top of it. Bought a few taffy at 15 cents each, quite the deal. read more

The only reason I am giving 4 stars instead of 5 was the staff. While there was a younger new guy who was great, the lady that was helping him had no clue what she was doing. They have discounts on 6 packs, 12 packs and cases, but apparently you can't do two discounts, although 6 packs are advertised as one price....a little confusing. Tip: their sodas are cheaper than B.A. Sweetie. With that out of the way........This place was crazy! There are hundreds of different flavors of sodas to try; from banana nut bread to green apple jalapeno. There is something for everyone. They have a nice selection of candy and novelty items. One could spend hours looking at all the different stuff Rocket Fizz has to offer. So "pop" on in and give your taste buds a new experience! read more

This candy shop is so fun and they are so friendly. We got to the store yesterday and they had closed early due to COVID reduced hours.

They have some really unique things you just have to see. read more

Tried to go on Friday and the store hours on the door showed they should be open. That was a complete NO doors locked and lights off

If you need a Star Wars Stormtrooper lunchbox, a dashboard Cat Buddha, or Sir Francis Bacon peanut brittle, this is your place. Truly, its impressive how many hilarious, kitschy, novelty and old school items they have. If you're looking for a funny/nerdy/nostalgic gift, look no further. When you enter, you're drawn into a giant table with miscellaneous one of a kind items like Andy Warhol candy bars, Rosie the Riveter figurines, voodoo dolls and other gag gifts. On the diagonal you'll find TV and movie themed items, like Star Wars, Wizard of Oz and Jurassic Park themed lines. Take the time to look at everything up close, because the amount of stuff this store holds is unreal. The walls are lined with sepia posters and tin signs of musicians, concert posters, and movie advertisements. You'll also notice a wide array of global candies, which is pretty cool. The extensive taffy bins are fun for the little ones, who will love reading all the tiny signs to create a bag. Adults might love the vintage soda pop shack, which has countless options of old school sodas. The only downfall to this store is that they do not have Rocket Fizz bags, so if you need a gift bag that is not the flimsy plastic one, you will have to buy a novelty one ($5+). Situated right on the busiest corridor of Euclid Avenue, Rocket Fizz is worth stopping into with the family for some good clean fun. read more

This place is so cool! Bottles of soda and old signs line the walls. Oh and they have the best taffy ever! I am not the type of person to seek out taffy or candy for that matter but this stuff is the best I have ever tasted (my boyfriend is a taffy buying/tasting pro). They have so many flavors to choose from and you can fill a bag for $6. I mean really stuff that bag full! This is definitely worth a stop for both children and adults. read more

If you have a sweet tooth or teeth, than drop everything and head here NOW! The hunt is over! From your childhood favorites to whatever Willy Wonka just came out with in his factory (thanks Willy), you can find it here. Chocolate, sweet, salty or sour, the rarest candies and treats from then and now are sure to be found here, you need not to look further. But wait, maybe candy isn't your thing, but sodas are, you can still come in and find it all. I am always on the hunt for rare candies that no longer are in your typical grocery stores, but this place has them like sour Razzles; my mouth is watering already. read more

Not your everyday candy and pop selection, although they have a lot of that stuff too. Fun place to take kids or just get your sugar fix or white elephant gift. read more

Very overpriced and limited selection. Visually laid out out to look old time, but no reason to stop in.

This place is cool and fun, with a lot of imported items that you cannot find anyplace else, such as Cadbury, Japanese kit-kats, and nostalgic candy. They even carry my favorite of Flavigny's pastilles-Violet. There's a ton of variety, and also a huge selection of soda. The one thing that I do not like are the prices...pop rocks over $1.00 per tiny envelope? That same Ritter sport bar offered at target...over $4.00? If your local stores carry what you're looking for (Hershey, licorice, jelly belly, m&m mars candies, wonka, necco, Swedish fish, etc.) get it at your local store as these items are two to three times the price here, for the same thing your grocery store has. I will not be purchasing anything but hard to find imported stuff. It's still a nice, clean fun store with friendly employees, so it's great to take kids! read more

Holy candy!!!! My goodness this store has everything and I mean everything. The only thing I would like to see is more options of candy that you can buy by the pound. I would have loved to leave with a single candies as opposed to a whole box or bag of the same thing. What really impressed me is that they had candies that I hadn't seen in years, brought back tons of memories. read more

Feels I walked into a store that was built in the early 1900s. This store has many unique beverages and candy. It's hard to describe the awesomeness of this store in a review. It seems they have hundreds of different beverages that you won't see anywhere else. Not only do they sell beverages and candy; they have a great selection on toys and pretty cool signs that you could hang on your wall. Instead of reading this review, just go ahead and plan a visit here, you won't regret it. read more

For a HUGE lover of candy, it's probably a bad thing that this is next door to my apartment. BUT, for a HUGE lover of candy, it's probably a GREAT thing that this is next door to my apartment :) The entire time I was walking around this shop (I made several laps), I just had the biggest smile on my face! It's bright and happy and just brings you back to your childhood!! From character pez dispensers to bubble tape to candy cigarettes to razzles to moonpies to literally ANY and all types of chocolates and candies you could ever dream to think about, this place may as well have it all! No it's not as big as Sweeties - that couldn't fit downtown, but for it's size, they literally have packed a TON of variety in the store! They also have a ridiculously large soda pop collection (I'm talking anywhere you find candy, theres a shelf of soda pop above or below it!) I found some Fitz's that I used to drink when I lived out in St. Louis, so of course, I had to get some! They also have a frequent buyer card- once you get 8 bottles, you get the 9th for free. The guy explained that it only counts if you buy 1, 2, or 3 because once you start getting packs of 4 or larger, they are already discounted for you. The entire store is lined with vintage tin signs that are also for sale (if I saw correctly, 19.99?? I may be mistaken, though- don't take my word for it). Apparently, this is a chain? I've never heard of it, but I'm glad it's here!! I'm in heaven for sure. read more

Oh my gosh this place is a step back in time as well as like entering a Ripley's Believe It or Not, with the names of some of these pops and sodas (bloody nose, puke). There was a lot I would have bought for the novelty of it if prices were just a little lower, ie bacon floss, bacon toothpaste etc was very pricey. I was happy to find some great sour candy and a variety of sodas I want to try. Would be a get a place to find gag and birthday gifts. Also check in on Yelp for a free candy bar! read more

Holy moly! Retro candy heaven!! Large candy store right in the heart of the Euclid-4th St. area, near the 5th St. Arcade. Fun to search for your favorite candy because you see so many other ones you forgot about. Scattered in are novelty items like chattering false teeth, remote control candy boxes, google eyes. Fun! Retro soda pops, too. Prices are a little high, but enjoy the taste memories. Check in Yelp, and get a freebie candy. read more

Don't miss this stop while shopping the arcades!!! Every candy you can think of plus unique sodas and gifts. Candy from Japan, Tazo from Mexico, old fashioned lemon drops... Whatever you can think of! There's just so much fun in the arcades and this is the pinnacle of bringing out the kid in me! read more

Rocket Fizz is a franchised store with about 50 locations throughout the United States. I'm surprised they'd open a store downtown CLE instead of in a suburb. It is near the 5th Street Arcades though. I like candy and sugar, so this place is pretty awesome. It's a dentist's worst nightmare. A good joke would be giving a gift card for this place to the child of a dentist. It's a mixture of soda, candy, gag gifts, and other miscellaneous merchandise for sale. TONS of sodas. TONS of candy. LOTS of gag gifts. Lunch boxes. Signs. The sodas are stocked in individual bottles, so you can buy one, or put together a 4, 6, 8 or 20 pack of whatever combination of sodas you want. they also have a refrigerated tall cooler with sodas. If you know someone who loves root beer or ginger ale/ginger brew or something, this is a good place for them to check out a large number of those types of sodas. They offer a Rocket Fizz brand of sodas as well. A little reminiscent of BA Sweetie Co., they offer candy that you don't see anymore, generally (throwback candy? Is there a term for this?). They also have a Japanese and Asian candy area, and European sweets in case you know someone who is craving something from their home country of Latvia, or wherever. Just kidding. They don't have candy in Latvia. read more

We were looking for something different and fun. I saw how large selection of sodas and candy they have with memorabilias back in d 50s up to 70s so we thought we's give it a try. Id give it a 4 star for the creativity, selection, and service but 3 because we tried the bacon maple brown soda, it was horrible. Definitely good for gags only. I never dislike a soda like this with an attitude. Yuck! chocolate soda with cacao taste wasnt as bad as the baconator but i still couldn't finish. We would bring friends and would definitely come back still just because they are fun. However, no more adventurous soda tasting for me, would probably stick to the ones that would sound more aceptable like lemon flavor and root beers. read more

Another day, another visit...there were a different group of employees and they were still super nice and helpful. I finally got my hands on the Japanese Kit Kats, pretty expensive ($8) but I have it...ball out lol.
