    This is a super sweet & adorable shop with all kinds of yummy, unique, specialty and retro candies from all over the world. The place is small and can get crowded quickly but boy, is it chock full of options! They even serve "Mermaid Tea" which is basically just bubble tea. There are a good number of bulk candy along the walls and packaged candy in the middle & some shelves. Behind the counter are individual chocolates and truffles. Some of the types of bulk candy they offer: Pale blue chocolate drops Chewy strawberry lobster claws Chewy cherries Raspberry cordials Assorted chocolate balls All around the rest of the store, there are: Chocolate bing cherries, champagne bubbles, gourmet flavored marshmallows, milk chocolate malt balls, peach rings, lollipops, Kinder Joy eggs, Pocky sticks, popcorn, taffy, Cadbury chocolate bars + other British brands, Charleston Chew, Oh Henry, Turkish Taffy, honey, colorful rock candy, smarties, gum and much more, including cute little trinkets. I bought the following: Tropical punch yellow, blue & red gummies from Spain - These were delicious! Delightfully chewy with awesome fruity flavor Chocolate with caramel & marshmallow center - Gooey and delectable! Cherry Fun Dip - A sugary retro classic I also ordered the "Mermaid Tea," choosing the Chocolate Almond flavor with pink, blue, orange, green, white and yellow sprinkles on top (for an additional 50 cents). This drink is made with powder flavoring and without dairy products. It was smooth and quite chocolatey... There wasn't much taste of almond at all but it was still enjoyable and the tapioca pearls were of decent quality. The ladies at the shop were very welcoming and answered all questions about the different kinds of candy with ease and expertise. I would definitely come back and stock up on more candy if I am in Montauk again.

    Candy shops seem to be the go-to place in Montauk. Unfortunately, you cant go in the store but you can order some stuff at the door. Damn Covid... They have every candy you could possibly think of. It brought memories back of my childhood and I wanted to try everything in the store! I ordered the milk chocolate cookie dough, milk chocolate brownie bites, and some gummy bears. All were very nice and served by weight. The lady who was helping us was very nice and we were happy to support the local business. The prices are typical of Montauk and so expect to overpay for basic candy but its ok. We were on vacation and wanted to indulge in some treats. Check it out!

    Take a step back in time for n this retro themed sliver of a candy shop. For a tiny place, the Candied Anchor is jam packed with tons of candy and chocolate. You can find the retro treats of your childhood along side some delicious contemporary modern creations. My son adored the chocolate covered caramel popcorn and the chocolate covered Swedish Fish! Candied Anchor also sells baked goods and party supplies. It's hard to resist passing by and not trying something! There is also a Southampton location on Job's lane. Will have to take a look next time we are visiting.

    You definitely have to stop here if you visit Montauk! Located right on the Main Street it's the perfect place to satisfy your sweet tooth! They have all sorts of different sweet treats and even a few unique candies!

    Way too small and cramped candy shop in Montauk has a tiny selection of chocolates and candies. Interestingly, they have a small selection of English and Japanese candies. Very small selection of assorted truffles as well. Want to fill a bag with goodies, I found the $6.25 for a half pound to be reasonable. Only problem, such a small selection. Nice place to stop by but too small.

    Chocolate, salt, crunch, swallow, repeat......

It's a shame that some people feel the need to leave a bad review because they got caught eating the candy in the back room. There are signs all over the place that say "no sampling" and that people will be asked to pay for the sampled candy. Eric shouldn't have been surprised. Go to Sundaes on Main! As long as you pay for the candy first you won't be disappointed.
