This is a fun stop. Giant selection of saltwater taffy, chocolates, ice cream, hard candies, jelly beans, whathaveyou. Some is in the aisles and some is via the staff behind the countertop. Cute cow bench outside if you'd rather wait while your loved one stocks up. Interesting to buy and also just to browse - I loved looking at all of the old fashioned candy boxes on the walls. Some Asian candies, mostly U.S. of A. A big attraction is the "seafoam" candy. Also they have merch, primarily the type of keychains and necklaces that have your name on them, and also a surprising amount of dog-related merch, including a bone-shaped dog toy and some cute signage. The staff were some of the friendliest we've ever encountered. They were so polite and eager and really seemed to enjoy their jobs. read more

Getting salt water taffy almost feels like a requirement when I visiting the coast. It definitely is for my mom so I stopped by to grab her some whilst we are here in Seaside. It was a busy place, and keeps later hours than the salt water taffy place down the block, lucky for me. It's a fairly large store with all kinds of sweets and ice cream. I got a bag of taffy for my mom and then also one as a gift, just an assortment I picked out. From the large selection (I think at least 50 flavors). I also got some fudge (my mom's got a sweet tooth!) for our group of nine visiting to share. They had divinity, an old-fashioned confection of which my mother is quite fond so I picked up some of that, as well as some dark chocolate sea salt and some rocky road. They give free samples and I got a taste of the dark chocolate sea salt--heavenly. I only interacted with one staff member but she was helpful. The parking is street only. read more

Anniversary day trip to Seaside to have lunch and walk around. This is always a must stop every trip. The nostalgia of so many different varieties of candy from our childhood brings a smile to our face. We're literally running around the store saying "oh my gosh look at this" or "did you see this?" It's always a fun experience. They have homemade fudge , a variety of chocolates and different twinkies. Family favorite are the great candy apples made in house. They also serve up icecream with housemade waffle cones. Your sweet tooth will definitely be satisfied! read more

There are a lot more flavors of taffy, which is enticing, but the taffy is overpriced and not fresh compared to other places.

I went into the shop with my family and got a scoop then my sister, who's deathly allergic to pistachio (which is a flavor there), asked for a clean scooper because of allergies. The worker ignored then scooped the ice cream and my parents noticed so spoke uo. She (the worker) acted extremely annoyed and went to the back of the kitchen and came out a little too fast. She finished up and we payed. While we were walking out she said "don't come back again". We went to a different shop and they had a clean scooper made just for people with allergies which is how it is suppose to be. Very disappointing experience:( read more

My craving for chocolate and caramel popcorn was my reason for checking out this shop. The owner and her staff were friendly, and very attentive to my husband and I. The shop has a great vibe, too. Recommend it. read more

Have some interesting finds. Prices are much higher than other shops for similar items. Wanted a dipped apple, but theirs were not attractive and I did not see a price on what they had, only a sign saying buy three get one free. There was a sign in the window saying that they were hiring starting at $17 an hour...not bad pay for someone to slang candy...maybe this is why their prices are a bit high. ‍ read more

Ice cream was good the selection was awesome. The downside was the staff nobody acknowledged us standing by the ice cream while they took selfies. We had to go get them to get ice cream. read more

Typical beach town ice cream/candy spot for tourists. The employee was friendly and they had a large selection of ice cream and candy. They have little random tourist type stuff as well. The ice cream was average and some seemed to have freezer burn on it. We kept getting pieces of ice on ours. The waffle cone didn't seem fresh but not completely stale. Average at best. read more

Schwietert's Cones & Candy - 2 scoops of caramel caribou - Desserts Near Me - Seaside, Oregon

So many to choose from! All my favorite candy in one place! There were over 50+ flavors of taffy's, jelly belly beans, even caramel apples and fresh made twinkies! Ah, what a heavenly walk! They also have delicious ice cream for purchase on a super hot sunny day! You can definitely smell all the goodness of waffle scent as you step inside. Overall, you won't be disappointed going here. I found all my favorites from childhood memories, I hope you do too! read more

Typical tourist-y beach town candy shop, but they did have a variety of products. Like, nearly every sweet you could want, and not just candy. There was the standard chocolate case, caramel covered apples, a ridiculous variety of salt water taffy, a wall of bulk bin treats, ice cream, international candy bars, novelties, and so forth. They also had souvenirs and creative/goofy gifts. There were at least two employees working, it was decidedly un-busy, and I stood at the case for a while before anyone asked if I required assistance. Still, they are teenage workers, I am not demanding world-class service at this sort of shop, and for selection alone I would give them 4 stars, but price prevents this. I got ONE piece of chocolate (they had dark, yas!) covered seafoam and it was nearly $5 (insert eye rolling emoji here). And then they don't accept credit cards, so it turned into a whole event rummaging for change because who the heck carries cash anymore? When all is said and done, I was consuming copious amounts of sugar, so it was good, but that was no life-changing treat. read more

the candy made me go like MUSTARDDDDD!!!!! the MANGO flavor is the best I give it a 67/10

All of the candy we got was ROCK HARD, the fudge was crazy over priced, and we were violently crop dusted. The worker that helped us was really nice though. All around a crusty musty dusty rusty place that was pretty dirty, understocked and unenjoyable. I would never go back here lol read more

Friendly service and awesome treats! They all taste good! A must to visit if you hav e that sweet tooth! read more

Schwietert's Cones & Candy - What we ordered - Desserts Near Me - Seaside, Oregon

I cannot recommend a better candy shop- especially for fudge- in Seaside. I recently went to Portland fudge company and they charged me $25 for two chunks of fudge and two Mario berry jelly sticks. Schwietert's is the trusted name for great quality fudge and be sure to pick up some penuche with black almonds while you're there- a good sized chunk is only 5.50. But there are so many more flavors and candy types to explore. Plus, they have locations all over the coast, so no matter where you find yourself, you can always buy some coastal fudge on every beach visit like I do. I have heard that their ice cream isn't the best, though, so stick to the fudge. read more

Very busy on a weekend, which is to be expected. Saltwater taffy is about 8.99/lb and they also sell other hard to find candies. The young people working here aren't the friendliest, but I assume it is the stress of having a full candy shop at all times during the weekend. The price seems a little steep for the value and most of the good flavors of taffy were sold out when I visited read more

The ice cream here was absolutely horrendous to see...I was craving ice cream & with the shop around the corner closed, I went searching & found this place. When I tell you the ice cream in the cases looked horrendous, I mean it. EVERY. SINGLE. OPTION. was either caked with freezer burn or completely melted into a sludge mixture that was refrozen again. I couldn't believe my eyes. I was super bummed as I was ready to buy a cone asap. I've never seen such a gross mishandling of food on display like that from a business. I didn't want to awkwardly walk right back out after entering so I walked a candy isle & when I noticed absolutely nothing was priced it was the cherry on top & I quickly left. Shame it's a prime location. read more

One star for Tillamook ice cream and one for the sweet girl working today. This place is super dirty. There were flies landing on the fudge being stored in the window as well as the caramel apples sitting on the counter. There were many missing labels for the ice cream so we could not tell what flavors they offered other than what was obvious (chocolate, sorbet, etc). Floors were dirty and their soda machine was out of order as well. Prices were ok- higher than normal since it is a tourist town but decent sized to help ease the pain for the sticker shock. read more

Aesthetically pleasing candy store with all sorts of yummy smells from waffle cones, fresh popcorn, fudge and twinkies! The customer service is excellent and the manager is very welcoming :) lots of great candy selections and good prices! 100% recommend :) read more

I look forward to a few bites of a treat when I visit the beach. Most candy stores offer wide varieties, fresh product and great customer service. Schwietert's offered none of those. As I walked through the store I immediately noticed the layout of shelving and merchandising was set up in an almost 'we're closing' display. Gone are the cute shelves boasting great varieties with baskets filled to the brim with vintage varieties of retro candies. Yes, the salt water taffy had bask-esque displays, but the labels were next to invisible to read and offered what I later discovered was stale taffy that broke into pieces as it was unwrapped. With close to no discernible flavors that used to stand out with the fun patterns. Not any more. It is now tiny labeled stale, flavorless taffy. With some selections just inches from the dirty floor. No paper bags were available and only LARGE plastic produce bags were offered. My next area I perused was the hand made chocolate cases. It was the first day of Spring Break and most milk chocolate choices were sold out. On the first day of the busiest week in retail on the coast. So I decided to look on the very plain shelves with half empty chocolate bars. Finally I found a milk chocolate almond bar. But the sell date was October of 2022. I am not sure if they are aware that the nuts in expired candy bars can hatch bugs. (YouTube it if you can stomach it). The candy bar was taken to the front counter to let them know there were BOXES of expired chocolates being sold. When I let the woman at the cash register know about the expired candy she snapped back, 'That's why they are on sale!' I told her there was no signage indicated ANY prices (sale or not) and no signs letting customers know the product expired 5 months ago. She said THEY know it is on sale when they scan it. Which makes absolutely no sense for the customer. Most stores feature reduced prices on stock BEFORE it expires. The woman scanned the bar for me to purchase. I quickly let her know I did not want to buy old candy but was bringing it to her attention. She took off the purchase while rolling her eyes at me and threw the bar to a coworker and announced 'SHE DOES'NT WANT IT!' Then she walked away and said nothing. The nicer clerk who caught the candy stepped up and continued to ring up my sale. I pulled my wallet out to pay and noticed my purse flap was on the scale. I said, 'Ooops, can you weigh this again?' Once again the eye rolling was given as though I was questioning the sale or that I was checking up on the total. Which was not the case at all. I just didn't want to pay extra for my purse flap error. Again, plastic bags were used for my sale and no paper bags offered. I left and was very dissatisfied with the new layout, lack of selection, sparsely stocked shelves, limited retro selections, poor signage, stale taffy, expired product and disrespectful staff. What was once a delightful, fun experience is no more. My grandkids will visit Canon Beach and I will be treated as a valued customer at Bruce's Candy Kitchen. The staff wear gloves, masks and are kind & respectful, use paper bags and don't sell expired chocolate. read more

Just watched a child with a service dog have a medical issue and fall down hard in the store. I then watched 2 of the women who work there yell and the family and told them they're business is not wanted. I WILL NEVER... EVER.... SHOP HERE AGAIN. SHAME ON YOUR EMPLOYEES!!! SO NOT OK. read more

Fun taffy l many bins of flavors. Great for chachkis and kids. Casual fun atmosphere.

Wanted to buy scoops to take to the hotel but they didn't have lids for the cups and didn't offer and solution. Two women staff that were working wasn't friendly at all. One guy seemed to be getting trained was very nice and seemed like he wanted to help us but wasn't allowed by one of the other workers. Bummer. Had always gotten ice cream here when we went to the ocean. read more

This place has the best fudge. I tried the pistachio and peanut butter explosion fudge and they were really good. I also bought a name plate souvenir from here. It's a good place to purchase name souvenirs too. This is a good place to purchase all your sugar rush fix. Especially their different fresh fudge it's a must have when visiting seaside. read more

Schwietert's is taking over the coast, one city at a time. Formerly Buzz on Broadway, this Seaside location on the main street is a candy emporium filled with bins of candy and taffy where you pay by weight, as well as current and nostalgia candy bars, ice cream, kettle corn, and loads of specialty items. They are the self-proclaimed "greatest selection of candy on the Pacific Coast!" That boast seems a wee bit excessive, but they do have most dessert needs covered. read more

This place used to be pretty great (pre-Covid) but sadly each time we've gone since, which has been about 4-5 times, they've disappointed us. I understand it may be hard to keep bulk gummy candy in stock when business is slow, but they never have any bulk options when we go! Literally everything In the bins is almost gone, so there is nothing to pick from. Taffy is available, but we really enjoy the usually gummies and bulk candy they offer. What we do get is usually stale now too. Hopefully they can restock on some of the customer favorites. I wish I wasn't leaving a bad review but some times it needs to be done for change to happen. Wouldn't want this place to fail. read more

Got the sugar free haystack and they were way too much chocolate and not much coconut. Also store is overwhelming with everything everywhere. Won't be going back. read more

The candy prices and selection are what you'd expect. Some things are priced well, some things are overpriced but harder to find so seem reasonable. However, skip the ice cream. At a touristy ice cream shop you expect to pay inflated prices. So $6.50 for 3 scoops isn't unreasonable (in theory) plus the .50 upcharge for a waffle cone. Sadly, the smaller than average waffle cone was stale and not crispy nor flavorful. Then the ice cream scoops were so small all 3 combined were the size of an average scoop at any other ice cream parlor. I mean you go in, you expect to pay a higher price, but at least they make you feel like you got to your money's worth. This place just made me feel disappointed and totally ripped off. Stick with the candy. There are many ice cream shops on that street, skip this one. read more

This is a candy lover's dream store. They carry Old School candy, various homemade fudge (FREE samples, which I had my share of), numerous types of Caramel Apples, ice cream shop, what more could someone with a Sweet Tooth ask for?

There must be MSG in their Cheese Popcorn. If you have an MSG Allergy, BEWARE! I tried some today because everything looked Homemade. Nice big kitchen & They make certain things right there. However, after a fairly small amount of the Cheese Popcorn, I became sick in a way that only happens when I eat something with MSG. I have pills that disintegrate under my tongue, that stop the vomiting. They are prescription from my doctor. MSG causes migraine seizures & food allergies in many people & should be posted in store when used!! read more

Why are they so rude? It's a candy store and not even a good one! Go across the street to Phillip's!!!

I watched the manager be particularly and unnecessarily rude to a customer today. Really disappointing.

The hours say six on here but maybe that's off season because they were still open when we went around seven. Great taffy, ice cream, caramel apple, fudge, all the candy you could imagine, and I even got a butterscotch covered twinky! Yum. read more

Absolutely the best ice cream, waffle cones, caramel appels and sweet treats in Seaside. My husband had the butterscotch ice cream & it was heaven on Earth.... Never even heard of some of their ice cream flavors before, but DAMN SON, so fucking good. There's literally an ice cream or candy shop every 12 feet in Seaside but yoooooo seriously, check this one out, they have pretty much EVERYTHING your sweet treat heart could possibly desire, PLUS the employees are nice. 100% would recommend this spot. read more

I would give the service at this store zero stars if I could. The staff at the ice cream counter were EXTREMELY rude and unprofessional. I walked in at 10 till 7:00pm and approached the ice cream counter where the girl working was on her phone texting. For 30 to 40 seconds she didn't acknowledge me. Then without looking up she states, "We are not serving ice cream anymore." I responded, "What, really?" and she turned her back and offered no explanation as to why. We should support small businesses during the pandemic, but businesses who hire employees that don't take pride or effort in their work don't deserve our money. I would suggest going to the Dreyer's Ice Cream stand down the street. They are very hard working and professional. read more

The wonderful smells of waffle cones and handmade sweets lead you into a sweet shop with tasty treats everyone can enjoy. Do you enjoy saltwater taffy? Look no further my friend. This place has many flavors to choose from. Several I had never tried before. Candy bins line one of the walls. Oh so many gummy, crunchy, chocolate or fun candies for you to try. I got gummy penguins, mermaid tails and saltwater taffy. It was all so good. If that wasn't enough to get you in the doors, the have fudge. Yeah, fudge!!! I was looking at all of the flavors while I stood in line with my bags of edible treasures. Next time I visit Seaside, you know I'm stopping by here again and getting fudge and more edible treasures. read more

Love this place! And I think I have a new favorite Pocky flavor!! Banana chocolate! I will post a pic of it. I guess I hadnt been in the shop for awhile as they have expanded. I really wanted deep fried oreos but the girl said that when they expanded they got rid of the fryer....oh well. Wish they would have kept it around though for a warm treat especially in chilly months. I bought a chocolate covered rice krispie treat- yum. The new fav pocky-yum. A sample/mini size chocolate bar that was strawberry waffle flavored-yum...maybe they can order the bar size for me please?! Lol. read more
