Nice experience. Staff were friendly. Got a rice Krispy with Paul's face on it. Pretty funny.

We've been a few times and always encountered a clean, bright store and friendly staff. My favorite is the cara -marsh. I think that's what it's called. But it's a homemade marshmallow covered in caramel. It's about $3 for 1 so not cheap but the goodies there are meant as once in a while type treats based on their richness. Would love to see the addition of homemade fudge in the future. read more

Cute, but expensive, candy shop! It was fun to see all the different types of candies, some I hadn't seen in years like the candy dots on white paper. Rice crispy treats with celebrities printed on them. My partner and I got a cookie and a few truffles to try - the cookie was decent but the truffles were the real star of the show... especially the peanut butter one! read more

My mom and I are big fans of the owners and being that we live in California, a trip to Rhinebeck is not in our plans so we decided to order some candy from their online shop! We ordered Paul Rudd and Jeffrey Dean Morgan's favorite candy boxes and they were both filled to the top with lots of tasty options to try! Paul Rudd's was filled with a Marshmallow Crispy Cake, Signature Bark - dark chocolate with cherries, almonds & sea salt, Clodhoppers - peanut butter, pretzel & graham cracker in milk chocolate and Candy Blocks. Jeffrey Dean Morgan's was filled with a Marshmallow Crispy Cake, Signature Bark - dark chocolate with cherries, almonds & sea salt, Milk Chocolate-Covered Swedish Fish and Strawberry Gummi Teeth. Everything we have tried so far has been really good! I can't wait to try the rest! I can't speak on the service or ambiance since we ordered online as I previously stated, but maybe one day in the distance future we'll make a trip out there! For now, I am happy to order and support from the West Coast! read more

This has been our go to sweet shop for the past few years, we actually got engaged outside of this shop. They handled the chelates for our wedding, to the point I had so many guests text/call and ask where they came from. (We went a week after the wedding to get some thank you gifts and restock our selection as well lol. I can't say enough about all of the staff, we have always had amazing interactions! It is a cute local shop that supports other locals so why not support them! read more

I LOVED the selection of candy in Samuel's Sweet Shop. It was quite expensive but a novelty store so probably to be expected. I got a package of gummy bears coated with crunchy candy. Great texture but all the gummy bears were the same color/flavor and I was hoping for a variety (couldn't tell due to the crunchy coating) especially for the price. Would definitely visit again to sample other candies! read more

Located in the cute town of Rhinebeck, this candy store had all my favorite classic candy. The staff was amazing and friendly. Our dog Benton was loving the attention. We brought some gourmet chocolates, caramel popcorn as well as two cups of hot cocoa. All was delish! Would have loved if they served sandwiches. We drove 2 hours from the city and was hoping they had a grilled cheese or something on the menu. We were lucky to snag a table at the diner (two doors down). HEADS UP - Parking is difficult to find during the weekends. The lot next door has reserved spots for CVS, so be sure to park in a spot that does not have a CVS or employee sign. You might get towed if you park in the wrong spot. We will def go again read more

This is a great little candy shop that also has baked goods and drinks. The staff is so friendly and will chat you up. The inside is tight but packed with a lot of nostalgic candies and new local items! They are expensive. But you get things you cannot find other places easily. Give it a go! read more

Stumbled over here while taking a walk in the area, definitely was not disappointed, plus it's kind of similar to a place in Washingtonville called guilty pleasure cheesecake. Love the selection from gummies,retro candy, chocolates/chocolate covered, cookies, rice crispy treats and much more. Something I give this a lot credit for is actually selling truffles below 2$ can't tell you how many places want 2-3plus $ for truffles and here it's 1.65 for them. Really can't stress how rare that is, that alone is very appreciated. The ambiance is great too, since you feel like you're going back in time to old fashion candy stores of times long gone for a simple sweet fix, without thinking Omg my diet,hah. Between the cookies, brownie and truffles it was all good, nothing I ordered was wasted and overall can't say anything I got was better over the other. I would to shoutout how nice and helpful was lady at the counter with order, I keep adding more items and she keep up without issue and answered my questions like about marzipan strawberry item. read more

Very very expensive! I would not be one to buy many individual chocolates here. The prices are completely insane. BUT, they have good coffee and a nice variety of nut butters. Yes, they are expensive. But, very unusual flavors and combinations of nut butters! They are delicious. The shop is very small tough to move around in but very cute! The help is wonderful and friendly and even helped me with new flavors of the nut butters! read more

How often do you see a candy shop? It's nice to run into one but this one is grossly overpriced. It was $3 for a Mallo Cup, $4 for a Reggie Bar, and similar insanity for everything else I bought. Holy inflation Batman! Most items are unmarked so I assumed it would be pricey (Rhinebeck) but that I would not be gouged either. The latter happened. We won't be back. read more

Located in the charming core of historic Rhinebeck, NY, the quaint Samuel's Sweet Shop is sure to evoke the kid inside of you that once had a love for chocolates/sweets. While not a fancy or high end chocolatier, Samuel's makes up for with cute decorations, candy of all kinds that you won't find at the typical retailer, and serves as a decent hybrid bakery/coffee shop. I'm not sure how the acting group of Paul Rudd, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, and Hilarie Burton landed ownership of the establishment, but if actors are saving cute shops like this, they're doing right by the world. Their only presence in the shop is the sale of Rice Krispies treats sold with their images on them. The selection of candy is extensive, including uncommon chocolates like Whatchamacallit and Zagnut bars. Impressively, they carry Nestle Lion bars which I've only seen when traveling in Europe or Dubai. They carry Pez dispensers and decades old gum brands like Big League Chew and Bubble Tape which I wasn't sure was even being produced anymore. Some reviewers may call this place a tourist trap, but I see it as a gem of a nostalgic candy shop that we don't often see anymore these days. It's definitely a place I'd recommend for a visit when wandering the shops in the historic core of Rhinebeck, NY. read more

Very cute sweet shoppe in the town of Rhinebeck. The main feature is Paul Rudd and the walking-dead (who plays Neegin, sorry can't think of his name) guy co-own it, apparently they rescued the business when it almost closed. It is TINY teeny tiny... there are some rice crispy treats with said- actors pictures on them if you want a souvenir. I didn't stay long, because it was Sinterklass and a LOT of people were packed in. The usual suspects plus coffee (I think) and hot chocolate. You need patience if more than a few people are ordering. Like I said, it is tiny and only 1 or 2 employees can work it at a time. Worth a look if you are in the town. read more

So I found out about this place on Instagram. I love Jeff Dean Morgan as neegan in TWD so I had to check this place out. Paul rudd and Jeff's wife Hilarie all have a hand here. I've learned so much. I had to get the rice Krispy with Jeff's face on it. Have to say the pic didn't taste all that great lol. It was pretty big so a lil tough to eat. Got the choc covered cashews and other lil choc things. Lots of candy in here. Nice place to get gifts. read more

Besides being insanely over priced the staff surveillance is a bit obsessive. 3 people behind the counter and no one else in the store and they watched us like what we can possibly do (I get it's part of the job - it's over kill) I've been here before with 20+ people in the store and they can't see anything going on with kids all over and no room to move inside. The candy I've tried is nothing to brag about, cookies not tasteful and everything else again insanely overpriced. One girl was staring at my kid while he was touching the candy and I looked at her and smiled just to make it less awkward for me. If you don't want anyone touching probably shouldn't have buckets of over priced candy in the story or maybe no kids. Weird vibe. Not for me. read more

its so awesome paul rudd owns this place! i would faint if i saw him lol. the chocolate covered raisins are soooo good! nice and fresh! friendly staff and lots of sweet treats to choose from. i'll def. come back and try more! read more

Samuel's sweet shop was such a fun stop. Of course when we found out it's co-owned by Paul Rudd, Hilarie Burton Morgan, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan it was a must stop for us while in the area! It's a cute tiny store and the girl at the register was pretty friendly. They had a large variety of chocolates and candies. We picked a few nostalgic candies and a few things we've never tried before. The fruit stripes were just a good and short lasting as I remembered :p. We also tried the milk chocolate pb cups, chocolate covered Oreos, and coconut cluster type candy. Everything was so good! It's definitely overpriced but it was a fun one time experience. Oh, and the coffee was delicious! read more

This is an incredibly tiny little candy store on the Main Street in town. It's nice and has a good variety of treats. It's incredibly expensive for what it is. Come here to get a particular candy if that's what you're looking for but overall, it's a small selection. They also offer coffee and lattes. We came later in the day so I think they were out of the baked goods. I ended up buying some shoelace blueberry candy, it was good. The flavors were super pungent but again, it was really expensive. If you're in Rhinebeck it's definitely a place to check out while exploring. I wouldn't particular stop here if I wasn't just walking around and checking out the beautiful town. read more

Definitely a place to stop if in area. read more

The customer service of this business is the best I've encountered in the area. I was shopping for a thank you gift for a friend from out of town, and the manager went above and beyond to make sure I picked out some products that were perfect for the intention. We also had an issue with shipping and the product did not arrive as expected. The team was so thoughtful to do a reorder for us - and we found not only success but our friends said the products were pure magic. Love this business; love the team. Will absolutely be back! read more

I went here for what I feel like are very obvious reasons- the place is owned by a national treasure (Paul Rudd). Rhinebeck itself is such a picturesque little town, and this candy shop nestled right in the middle of it fits the scene. The shop itself has a layout that is pretty small/tight, and the selection doesn't offer as wide a variety as we were hoping for. (Example- during most trips to a candy store I grab some C. Howard's candy but all they have is gum). The pre-packaged candy is quite pricey, and my sister in law asked for a piece of the chocolate coffee toffee and just got a giant chunk of chocolate with peanuts in it. She only realized it once she had bitten into it, and it was the only thing she asked for from the glass case, so she was a bit sad. The baked goods looked tantalizing and I wish I'd tried one of them, but I spent almost $40 on candy so decided I didn't need more sugar. If you have a sweet fix and want to check it out I'd say do it, but don't expect to be blown away by the offerings. read more

I traveled to Rhinebeck specifically for this candy shop because of its local charm and to possibly get a glimpse of Paul Rudd, Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Hilarie Burton. Tiny little treasure of a store. Feels like you're in a movie when you come with the shelves perfectly lined with various confections. The counter has all these different baked goods as well as every kind of chocolate you can think of. I purchased quite a few items because I love chocolate and candy. You can't go wrong with anything you buy here. The gentleman helping me was so patient because I didn't even what I wanted. My eyes were all over the place in excitement. Wonderful experience and everything was perfect and delicious. I will be coming back here every time I visit this town. It was really worth it. Please go here!! read more

Received several items as a Christmas gift and I must say I wasn't disappointed. They do ship and we received our items rather quickly. I really liked the pretzels covered in peanut butter and the chocolate covered cherries. The chocolate covered Swedish fish were very yummy as well. The dark chocolate bark was really smooth and the cherries and nuts perfectly complemented each other. Everything tasted fresh and was packaged very nicely. Check out the rice krispie treats pictures I posted.......complete with Jeffrey Dean Morgan & Paul Rudd in an edible picture. When I go to New York, I plan to visit the actual shop. read more
