We picked up a couple of things including an Asian snack we were surprised to find here. I'm not sure I'd frequent this place because it's pretty expensive, but it's fun to browse while at Optimist Hall.

In the back left corner of Optimist Hall sits Collier Candy. Not the best candy shop in the world…read moreand not the worst. It was a great ploy to get the kids eating lunch with a promise of candy to follow (yeah we have that parenting game handled!) As soon as the kids saw candy, they knew their intentions. After lunch we did head to Collier. They had an array of candy from some hand made sold separate candies to good old fashioned box classics. There were some reasonable prices and some unreasonable. What caught my eye... interesting flavored candy bars. Chicken and waffles, peanut butter and jelly, bourbon pecan pie, etc... At $4.25 a bar I purchased the bourbon pecan pie and I am glad I did. It's delicious! Bourbon- not my thing. Pecan pie-my thing. My husband even commented that he was surprised at my choice but I said it sounded good and after he tried it, he agreed.

Be careful you might get a toothache just looking at all of the sweet treats.

I was greeted upon entering and assisted immediately. They did follow the COVID-19 safety procedures as recommended by the CDC. I got this cinnamon whipped honey while I was in there to use on my biscuits it was divine! I definitely think of you in the area stop by and grab some yummy treats..... you will not be disappointed.

Things I loved: how fresh the fruit water is as they make them to go; option to choose your level of sweetness; refills; so many popcorn flavors; ability to sample as many popcorn series that you like; friendly staff! The drink did take a little longer than expected for the drink to be ready, but it was worth the wait!

We were greeted by Janelle (I hope I spelled that correctly ). She was so much fun to talk to. She allowed us to try some of the popcorn we wanted to give a gander to, and she also recommended we try the fried chicken popcorn . That is such a different take on popcorn !! I loved that the flavor was subtle and not overpowering. It's dusted perfectly. I also asked to try the pizza popcorn , and it was like having the pizza combos but in popcorn . To be honest, I loved the fried chicken popcorn so much that I got myself a bag. Janelle was telling my husband and me that she has over 60 flavors of popcorn !!! I'd probably drive her crazy wanting to try them all, but I held back for her sake . They make great fresh fruit water, and yes, it's worth it, especially having free refills. Another amazing thing us they ship the popcorn if you aren't in the area. Man, that's so awesome. All in all, a 10 out of 10.

The owner Blair was a pleasure to meet…read more He explained how his business came to be as well as gave many details on his shops products. We we're giving samples of delicious truffles as well as purchased delicious chocolate chip cookies, brownies, and chocolate bars. Recently I visited the shop and was popular surprise that they were offering shop made ice cream. Although brownies are not currently on the menu until next month I was able to purchase their vanilla based ice cream that was full of brownie pieces and dark chocolate. I have nothing but good things to say about chocolatier Blair Potts and his friendly wife Margo. Because this is a chocolatier shop and everything is made from scratch, of course the costs are not the same as your average candy store or supermarket. Everything I've ever purchased from that shop was absolutely amazing and worth every penny.

They'd also be exquisite cocoa with varied notes of fruit, nut or flowers. Not here. $50 in a soft cheap box with nothing fine and notes printed on a desk jet.

One of my favorite finds on my recent vacation to Charlotte, located in The Market at 7th Street…read more They have a delicious selection of fresh-made waffles with yummy toppings. The primary focus is the waffles, but they also have a cooler with a small selection of canned and bottled drinks. The employees are friendly and efficient, and will bring your order out to you at a table in the food hall once it's ready. I ordered the Bacon, Bacon waffle, which had bacon, brie, and hot honey. It was delicious! The melty brie and the crunchy bacon had a great texture, and the hot honey gave it a slight kick. My friend had the Berry Loaded waffle, with strawberries, blueberries, Nutella, and whipped cream. The fruit and whipped cream were both very fresh. And they don't skimp on the toppings - you get all the flavors in every bite. Definitely a place with crave-worthy treats that I'll be sure to visit any time I'm in Charlotte.
