When it comes to chocolates, See's is my favorite! To make things even better, I just recently found out that See's has declared the month of August as "Dogust," in honor of August 1st being the universal birthday for shelter dogs. To celebrate they are selling special Paw Boxes of chocolates for dog lovers, an exclusive Dogust Bandana, and a plush Squeaky Dog toy for our furry friends (See's doggie CEO, Stella, approves). They will also be accepting donations at checkout online & in stores to raise money to cover medical expenses for shelter dogs in need. Once I heard this, I knew I had to support this good cause, so I picked up a Paw Box, a plush Squeaky toy, and left a donation. The kind sales associate also gave me a special dog treat for my pooch along with my yummy sample. Thank you See's for helping our furry friends. read more

Such an iconic See's Candies, especially this location. I remember getting the lollipops over 20 years ago when I attended a school nearby. This place is really nostalgic for me and I had the chance to share it with my kids recently. These days my favorites are the scotch mallows and the nuts and chews box - you can't go wrong with them! read more

This place is my go-to spot whenever I need to gift a luxurious, high-quality chocolate to someone, whether it's for a special occasion, a friend, or family. No matter the event, they always have a fantastic selection of indulgent chocolates that are perfect for gifting. You can sample as much as you'd like, but I usually skip that part to avoid eating too much, it's hard to resist because their chocolates are simply addictive. My personal favorite is the salty caramel variety, which strikes the perfect balance of sweet and savory. What's also great about this place is their packaging. They offer beautifully designed gift boxes, perfect for any occasion like New Year's, Valentine's Day, or just as a thoughtful treat. These boxes elevate the gift even more, making them feel extra special. Whether you're buying for a special someone or just treating yourself, this spot never disappoints with its premium, delectable chocolates and stylish packaging. read more

Came the week before Christmas around 5pm to pick up some gifts and the little shop was packed! I grew up eating See's candy but never really purchased it as an adult until now. Does this mean I'm getting old? Bought some fun mini hard candies that come in their classic lollipop flavors and also bought some custom selection truffles. They didn't have everything I was looking for mainly due to being sold out during a busy holiday season but I'm happy with my purchase. Each custom box is about $30 per pound but you needn't fill up the whole box. Half pound boxes are available too. Just ask to see the box to check the progress and the workers will show you how it looks and also let you know if more can fit inside if you want it to look fuller. Associate gave me a great tip for selecting the chocolates: if you aren't opening the box to consume right away, steer away from the mint flavors because everything will end up smelling and tasting like mint if you let them sit with other chocolates too long! Love that they give out free samples and offer free Christmas wrapping for your custom boxes! Small parking lot available. read more

We've shopped at this See's Candy location for many years. It's actually walking distance from our home. This evening we stopped in to check on gift ideas. Sophia greeted us as we entered and promptly offered us a sample. I can't see having an unpleasant experience in a candy store that offers a free sample as soon as you enter. Their candy is iconic and their reputation is legendary in LA. This evening Sophia added to the allure of a great sweet shop by treating us with such sweetness. No matter the holiday, See's is the place to satisfy your sweet tooth. read more

See's candy has always had a policy where you can try as many samples as you want. I've been going there for over 25 years, there's this rude girl in the store that after me asking for four different samples told me that that was the last one. To which I asked why had your policy change? She made it sound like she was doing me a favor by giving me one more sample. Never mind that they charge $3.00 extra to pick your own box. So she ruined it for me, ask her for her name and I did talk to her manager, she told her manager that I was rude to her, which I was not. I may have been mad because of how disrespectful she was. What she told me about the all you can eat samples she didn't know. Anyway, so it was a good run, but I'm over it. Keep your candy. I don't need it. Also, a lot of people don't believe me when I tell him you can get as many samples as you want, google it. It's even under. read more

This place makes so much money and for a good reason. Their candy is delicious. They're super busy before closing every single day, but the store associates are still very helpful. Everything is priced pretty highly, but it's for the high-quality candy that you are getting. Plenty of parking next to store. read more

I love this charming shop and am thrilled it's in La Canada. It's a wonderful little throwback to the 50s, and both service and quality of the chocolate are excellent. I absolutely love that they let you sample a piece when you walk in. It's a small gesture, but it ensures that my kid will never complain if I need to pop in to buy a couple of boxes for friends, and some of the dark brittle and/or dark scotchmallow to keep on hand for ourselves. I can just bribe her with a sample and a piece for later. Win-win! See's Candies make terrific hostess gifts and wonderful surprises for dear friends. read more

Tried the Click, Pick & Go online option today and it went very smoothly. I ordered a 1 lb. custom box from home, got an email that it was ready to pick up just a couple of hours later. But do not fear - even though you pick up your order and sign for it, you still get a sample! Boy was I happy, just the thing before a visit to Descanso Gardens. read more

Super friendly service by Breanna. It was a slow Wednesday evening and I was greeted by a sample of any chocolate I liked. I went in with a $25 gift card and she kindly assisted me by packing as much chocolate as possible making the bill $24.97! As I asked what flavor the raspberry milk chocolate was, she offered me another sample! Increasingly kind and warm service! Would 100% recommend coming in! She even wrapped the box and put my sticker I wanted. read more

A classic! What's not to love about the great See's Candy. We stopped in today to get our sweet tooth fix and we had the pleasure of being helped by Sebastian who was super helpful and nice. I love getting the milk chocolate almond squares. We also got a bunch of free samples and found some new favorites as well. I specifically like this location a lot because it's a stand alone with great parking. read more

Father's Day brought me in around lunch time on a Thursday afternoon. It was a tad busy. I had to park on the street, no biggie. I needed up getting a two pound box for my husband for Father's Day and we each got a few pieces of chocolate. I just wanted to name drop a fantastic lady named Breanna who I noticed the second we walked in. The lady she helped before me told her what a great help she was and she was right. Not only did she give my daughter and me a sample, but she let us both get another chocolate to try before committing to buying one, which I thought was really nice. She was very happy and smiley and you can tell she really enjoys her job. Just a true ray of sunshine. This is why I alway bypass the galleria and head up the hill to this See's, the customer service has always been great. read more

Well, during early COVID when Sees was closed I lost 15 lbs (I'm a big girl, can spare 15 and more). Then Sees reopened and the weight came right back on! Obviously this is not a ME problem I love their dark chocolates: the dark nougat and dark butterchew are just delicious and anything with almonds tends to work for me. This isn't European or Parisian chocolate, this is fabulously made in the USA, in California, and it's heavenly! My favorite Sees fun fact is that the portrait of Mary See is wearing a lei in the Hawaiian shops. This spot especially is dear to my heart because of the staff. read more

Shout out to Sebastian, he was very welcoming and helped us out in finding what we needed to find.

I love See's candy and have all of my life. I have had family traditions of buying Victoria Toffee on the holidays and giving lollipops away as gifts. My favorite candies of all time are the almond squares ! When my East Coast brother comes in town he also makes his run to the candy shop. See's is a family favorite. Customer service is usually very good and just add to the sweet experience . read more

See's Candies - 1lb of favorites - Candy Stores Near Me - La Canada Flintridge, California

A month ago my love cherry picked a box of my favorites. The box has been up cycled and repurposed to a mending kit as a homage to my grandmother. I kept thinking of all the fond memories these flavorful chocolates evoke. My favorites are the dark chocolates with nuts or caramels. If I had to pick only one, it would be the California Crunch, followed up with a close seconds molasses chips. So with Easter a week passed, I was curious to see if there were any seasonal treats still available and on sale. It was a score! The dark chocolate peanut butter egg is AMAZING! We cut it into 4 manageable pieces to not feel too gluttonous to eat at once. This portion size is about the same as a peanut butter cup. So good... and the cherry on top, each visitor gets a free sample chocolate! Today was a double caramel for the win! If you don't eat sugar, there's a lovely See's Scented Candle that burns for 50+ hours for $28... however if I bought that it would motivate me to make more frequent visits! read more

Samples always help to try new things and it's never a miss. My girls love to create their own box of chocolates. Family fav.

Absolutely the best chocolates, locally produced, artisanal before there was artisanal...when all else fails, See's to the rescue! And the free samples don't hurt either. Check out the extended hours for the holidays. Parking can be challenging at this location but wait a few minutes and you'll be fine. Service is very helpful and friendly! read more

See's Candies - The free sample in all its glory - Candy Stores Near Me - La Canada Flintridge, California

(Shopped 12/23/20 WE @ 2:00pm): I see all the various candies and I want it all! It's been at least over ten years since I last stepped into the See's Candies La Canada Flintridge location which was close to where I grew up and worked for many years. A friend found an old gift card for a 1lb box of chocolates and felt this was the perfect time of year to redeem it. Let's get this out of the way now... I loved the See's Candies brand coupled with a lifetime of positive memories. On this particular day, what I hoped would be an easy errand turned into something much more. Was this to be another sweet experience after a long hiatus!? PURCHASE Chocolate Free Samples (Comp.): A common practice to offer a free sample treat to every customer, this chocolatey goodness was almost worth the wait and greatly appreciated! Krispys Peppermint 8oz Box ($11.75): Small squares that freshened your mouth with every bite and a lasting coolness https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=qHaa2hwMENLwGFnEOt9i5A&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. Peanut Brittle 10oz Box ($13.00): Truly one of my all-time favorite candies, a jigsaw of crackling pieces in all shapes and sizes made from the simplest of ingredients, a fresh batch (which this was) was one of the best tasting things in the world! Left to my own devices, I would easily devour the entire box in one sitting with no regrets https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=mwoJFrHEmfhfvm1hAgUx-g&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw! Nuts & Chews 2lb Box ($45.00): Apparently, the candy legend was no longer included; what happened!? Regardless, the sight of this box immediately brought excitement and smiles to people's faces. Two floors filled with an assortment of dark and milk chocolate-covered treats, the hunt was on to find your favorite (I loved the chews). There was no bad selection, so grab the closest one to you, open up and say "aaahhh" https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=j-dRZ3oJSU6OrF3baq75Sg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw! SERVICE Due to the mandated social distancing to slow the spread of COVID-19 during Coronavirus 2020, they required worn face masks, limited shoppers, and encouraged online orders for easy pick-up. The full staff dressed in bright white uniforms were courteous, helpful, and efficient during each visit. And, they also had an orderly waiting line outside https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=GWgCrfM6qafygAuLF6oxfQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. No issues here! PARKING (FREE) They had a private medium-sized lot. Otherwise, there appeared to be plenty of spots along the main drag of Foothill Blvd. and nearby side streets - 'nuff said. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE The iconic white medium-sized candy cabin filled with sweet treats wrapped in decorative boxes stocked along the walls and nicely displayed on tables throughout. Aside from the various promotional posters on the walls and windows, the store was very clean and organized. Sufficient natural lighting came through the large front glass windows and doors while soft electric ceiling lights filled in the rest. There were no TVs nor background music. ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL It was a pleasure to reacquaint myself with La Canada Flintridge's See's Candies location as some fond memories came to mind from years past. Everything still tasted amazing, the prices were still very competitive, and the service was exceptional. Although See's Candies hasn't been a regular part of my life for years, this recent visit has brought it back into my peripheral vision. Sure, I wasn't expecting to buy all of these items and simply came to redeem the gift certificate, but after I waited for over 30 minutes AND only 2lb boxes were left, I decided to just go for it and impulsive bought things that I probably didn't need but enjoyed nonetheless https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=idRvxBey1zo_2yqIzbdRfw&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw! I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $70.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS read more

My sister really really wanted See's for Christmas. So I had her tell me exactly what she wanted once she looked at the selections online. She went a little crazy but she deserved what she wanted. (She has been a rock for another family member so she gets what she wants). I took her list and ordered online, creating two custom boxes for her, paid and waited for See's to let me know pickup ready. Couple hours later ( they were in midst of the Christmas rush) i got their email. I pull into the parking lot and see a long line. Ugh. From my car I call their number to pick up. "We will bring it to the pickup counter right away". Nice! I walked right over and just picked up my order. No wait. And yes, my sister was so happy. Special treat for a special sis. Thank you See's Candy! read more

Great Candy! Horrible service!! One lady was going around sending out negative energy . Didn't care about customers but only caring about towing people's cars. The other sales people were nice except for the lady in the black shirt. Never coming to this one again read more

Horrible customer service. Spent $80 only to have the manager threaten to tow my car. Sign in the parking lot clearly says 20 minute parking for customers. read more

I like how they have their own parking lot solely for their business. Also they have a wide selection of choices. But their customer service is not the greatest. I mean it's not the worst but it just takes forever for them to pay attention to your order. That's why I usually just get a ready to go assortment so I don't have to wait too long. Other than that the chocolate is what keeps me coming back. read more

What a great experience during the busy holiday season. I came in with my mom to get gifts for customers. Got all that I thought I needed, and had forgotten the other pound of chocolate I needed. I called up and Beth answered the phone. She recognized me from my particular order. 1 pound of marzipan chocolates. I asked if there was any chance they might be able to make it up for me to come back and pick up. During this holiday season they don't normally take orders due to how busy they are, but she said she'd try. She's amazing she was able to have it ready when I got there. I hopped in line and asked if by any chance if she had a chance to make it up. She recognized me again and said she had. Helped me get the box so I could go to the back register and get in and out. Thank you Beth for going above and beyond even during the busy time. I greatly appreciate you. You deserve a raise. :-) the whole shop is pleasant and organized. Thanks team. :-) read more

I love that La Cañada has a See's candy shop! Giving gifts just got a whole lot easier! I stopped by and was greeted with the kindest employees! I wanted to get my neighbor a gift for her new baby and the employee helping me out was the kindest. I was in and out in less than 5 mins! He knew I was in a rush and suggested a few things and I was on my way! My neighbor loved it and that's all that matters :) read more

See's Candies will always get 5 stars from me. It's one of my first stops when I get off the plane from the east coast. This branch is a stand-alone shop not in a mall, with a private parking lot. We visited just after Christmas, and the spacious shelves were mostly empty, regrettably. The line was long and the cashiers a bit slower than I've experienced, but perhaps that was just as they recovered from a customer who was buying a two pound box one piece at a time (did I get anything coconut...?). Luckily, my favorite chocolate was available - although they had to bring it in from the back! You can't go wrong with this high quality chocolate - and a free sample whether you buy something (which I did, and always do!) or not. I can order this from a catalog or online, but the chocolate is art its best purchased in a shop. read more

Always has great service and very good inventory to pick from! I love both getting the cute items for a season (shop early for those if you want choices because things can run out) and the sales. read more

I've had Neuhaus, Godiva, Ghirardelli, Baci Perugia, Lindt, etc., but for the price & flavour profile, See's Chocolate made in the good old US of A is for me, the best there is. My particular favorite is the Chocolate Truffles....mint, dark chocolate, etc. I find that all of them are rich in chocolate flavour as well as having a high cream content that adds silkiness, rich diary creaminess, and chocolate butter that makes the chocolate melt at near body temperature for luxurious sensory overload. I imagine chocolate could be listed as a drug closely similar to the effects of endorphins. The See's store in La Canada/Flintridge is not quite like the classic See's store in Granada Hills which replicates the older "original" decor with pristine white punctuated by accents of black. The overhead lights made of milk white glass in a art deco shape adds a touch of elegance from the 1920's when Les Arts Decoratif et Industriel was all the rage on both sides of the Atlantic. The counters are ensconced in immaculate, clear glass to protect the precious chocolate objets d'art. However, the overall decor at the La Canada store is close enough. The lady sales person whose company number is 018400000003 was the opposite of some nameless cog in the machine that is See's. She is friendly, amiable, good natured, & hospitable. Buying the candies from her was a pleasure, and she made the transaction into a small town/village experience where a little small talk & chit chat makes for a feeling of being welcomed in a way that could never happen in a big box corporate entity such as Walmart. It's because of her that I unhesitatingly choose 5 Yelp stars for the La Canada store. (If you're curious, the photo I uploaded with a lady behind the counter is the gracious Ms. 018400000003.) It's great to see workers who still are loyal to their company and express it by going out of their way to make customers feel at home. So rare to find in the early 21st century when companies like Walmart exploit their employees with low wages forcing them to go on welfare/public support, or hire them with less than 40 hours so Walmart doesn't provide them with health care either. It seems that See's must be doing something right. See's.....great place to get a good deal on quality & excellent chocolate. $18/lb is a wonderful deal considering some other options are over $30/lb, and you're just buying the fancy name. read more

Normally, I don't visit See's Candies two days in a row, but I polished off my son's Easter egg that we bought yesterday and he was not a happy camper when he got home from school. He must have inherited the chocoholic gene from me. Anyway, to my pleasant surprise all the Easter chocolates were on sale for 25% off today. Trust me when I say going to See's in the afternoon when they have a sale and you are craving something sweet is a huge mistake. Thank goodness I hiked 3 1/2 miles over an elevation increase of 550 feet this morning or I would be checking into Weight Watchers next. Yours truly, The Duchess of See's/La Canada read more

Individual care and attention, quality chocolate treats and free samples when you walk in the door! What is your pleasure? If it's something chocolate, chances are See's Candies will do the trick. See's has convenient pre-boxed selections if you are in rush. There are different sized boxes and all types of different varieties. Nuts and Chews? Got it. Milk chocolate? Got it. Dark chocolate? Got it. Assortments? Yup. Truffles? You know it. Fudge. Ah-huh. Sugar free? Yes, even that. The pre-packed boxes are often available decorated for any holiday. Yes.... any holiday. Christmas, Valentine's Day, Graduation, even St. Patrick's Day and American Holidays (Memorial Day, 4th of July, etc). Behind the counter there is a wide selection if you want to choose your own box compilation. Half a pound, full pound, pound and half... whatever you want. The special person in my life loves the dark almonds here, and over the years I have heard from See's staff that is one of their most popular selections. If you build your own box, they can wrap it with specialty papers and different stickers to mark whatever your occasion might be. They even have the yummy lollys that are my favorite. When you walk in the door, staff greet you with a smile and a free sample. Want to sample something different? Just ask and they will happily oblige. Cash, check or charge, they will get you happily on your way. Bonus points for this being a standalone store. If I can avoid the mall, I will so this location is a win-win for me! read more
