Not the most welcoming and engaging by any means. The area around it is actually quite charming so you could make a nice one or 2-hour visit and walk around the to see the historical sites. My reason for the lukewarm review is the prices are too high for the area. I feel the prices should be 10 to 15% less than they are.

We found this place on our way for Vermont. To say this place is a hidden gem would be a bit of an…read moreunderstatement. This is a real deal old school candy shop that makes almost everything in-house. We got a variety of the larger candies including the dark chocolate peanut butter cup. All for $18 which is so very reasonable for the high quality. Back to the peanut butter cup. Where I live in Providence, this would have cost double and be half as good. This is exactly the kind of business that travelers to and through New Hampshire should support.

In their new location in the plaza they dont have the option to eat in but do have some out door tables that are ok in the summer, more of a to go place now that they dont have the bigger space in downtown. Best black and white frappe in town. Best chocolate options within about an hour of town. Service is great, attentive and quick in and out.

Got nostalgia? Love candy?…read more This is the place to grab some old-time-memory-lane candy items or some newer oddball products (like mint flavored M&M's). It's not a gigantic spot but they manage to pack a lot of items in a small-ish store with 2 levels (there are only a few steps separating these levels). They've got Harry Potter themed candy along with some other brand of disgusting flavored jelly beans (you know...like vomit and booger). I also spied some fun lunch boxes and cool mugs. Oh...and remember those ice box individually wrapped chocolates?? I had to buy one and eat it right away. Holy crap...those are sweeeeet. Guess I'm getting old....almost too sweet for me. Check it out - you'll find something to chew on for sure.

My wife has been going here since she was a kid. They have delicious chocolates, fudge, truffles with flavors like marzipan and various cremes. You can make your own assorted box and pick your own from the case or they have prepackaged as well. They have a good selection of old school candies like candy buttons, sour patch kids, rock candy and the like. They get creative with things like "reindeer corn" around the holidays and themed stuff for Valentines, etc. I also like how reasonable their prices are-they are more than fair and affordable. If you need a good treat, stop by. Easily found off beautiful walkable main street in Keene, where many other great businesses are as well.

The selection is AMAZING!! The wide variety of all things delicious are not only sold here but made from scratch in small batches to control the quality and deliciousness of every single morsel of goodness that is packed into everything they create. This family owned and operated Candy store has it all and yes even harder to find items can be found here pretty much year round however they welcome customized orders that have been made to your specific liking!! This place doesn't disappoint and the prices are more than reasonable especially when you take into consideration all of the fine ingredients, time and love that goes into everything they have to offer. It is my absolute favorite candy shop on the entire planet and I highly recommend stopping by or if that's not possible for you than just place an order for delivery!! You definitely won't be sorry that you did!! They'll ship it wherever whenever you want it and the presentation is just as glorious as the treats are!! So whether you're a local or just someone who's passing through Gardner Massachusetts... OMG you've gotta stop by because life is far to short to live it with any regrets!! Yes everything you can buy in the shop is also available for delivery/shopping as well!! No I am not employed by them hahaha just a very satisfied customer for over the last 20+ years is all!! Why would I want a simple Hershey bar when I could have some of their hand dipped chocolates and a pound of their homemade French rolls which I always say is for everyone but I typically keep it all for myself hehehe!!

Taking a walk around historic Gardner, stumbled upon this absolute gem of a candy shop. Most of…read morewhat they have is made right there in the spotless kitchen, which you can see through glass viewing windows. Service is absolutely stellar. They have some very unique items, such as sour lobster shaped gummies. Also, they have the classic truffles and assorted chocolates. I bought gifts and some for myself. Chocolates are fresh and good. I most highly recommend unless you are on a severe diet and have a sweet tooth. In such a case, steer clear! Otherwise stop in fora chat and a treat, while picking up presents for those unlucky enough to not be there.

The prices are steep and although we intended to pick up a few things I just couldn't justify the cost in my head. We've definitely been to chocolate shops before and purchased both their gift boxed items and confections by the pound but I just couldn't convince myself to splurge this time. In any event, they have a large selection. I didn't see the list of ice cream flavors they had on offer but that area was manned and there are some tables in there to enjoy on site. Parking is on street about a block away that you pre-pay for at the kiosk and leave the receipt on your dash board. The entrance is up a few steps.
