Decorated so well and had just about anything you could think of chocolate/truffle/candy wise. We left with a large amount of chocolates and truffles and a few novelty items for our son.

Ye Olde Pepper Companie is the oldest candy store in the United States - they have been open since…read more1806! They are famous for their Gibralters and their Blackjacks - I of course, took home both. The Gibralters come in lemon and peppermint flavor - they are big pieces of candy that are made to be broken and shared. I also took home two of the blue raspberry flavored fruit jellies which didn't make it very far - I'm a sucker for anything blue raspberry flavored. The inside of Ye Olde Pepper Companie is very small, the line took up the entire store and people actually had to wait outside until people left before they could come in. The line moved quickly though and they were very organized when helping customers. There are no tables to sit at, just tables, cases and shelves of candy! They offered chocolates, fudge, Saltwater Taffy, caramel corn and even brittles. Is it the best candy in the world? No, but I love knowing that I got to visit and purchase candy from the oldest one in America. Staff were very friendly and they gave me a See's Candy vibe minus the cute little outfits. I will definitely visit again if I get the chance! Check out a part of history!

The majority of the store is candy, lots of chocolates, fudge, and old Fashion candy we grew up with. Definitely a fun place to shop! We both ordered different ice cream flavors and of course different toppings. I ordered two different scoops - Maple Walnut and Coffee Oreos. My husband had one scoop of Chocolate Peanut Butter. I had to load on the Marshmallow cream (East Coast topping that I miss). There are plenty of tables inside and a patio area outside. Nice sized parking lot with ample parking.

One of the coolest parts is their display of centuries-old candies they recovered. It's a neat bit of history because they're the oldest candy company in America. My favorite is the Bog Turtles, their Massachusetts take on classic turtles with dried cranberries, available in both milk and dark chocolate. They also have tons of adorable tourist souvenirs, like chocolate witches. I can never leave without grabbing a packet of Gibraltars, their signature snappy candy that melts in your mouth. The mint flavor is my go-to, but they have lemon too. If there's a line, it's worth the wait. It moves pretty quickly and the folks behind the counter are really nice.

They put together some great looking platters full of an assortment of chocolates and some extra bark on the side. They even helped carry everything to my car. To say that my work was impressed with what we got is an understatement. My residents LOVED the chocolates and are still talking about how delicious everything was 3 days later! Plus, I was able to get some extra chocolates for my wife while I was waiting on the finishing touches to my work order. I'll happily suggest the Chocolate Truffle to anyone looking for delicious chocolates and wonderful service!

In the meantime, it is wonderful to have safe options.

That said, I succumbed recently as we were having friends over for dinner and although I made a dessert to serve, I thought it would be nice to have a few chocolates out in a dish as well. I bought a small box of chocolate covered caramel squares made by this local family-run Massachusetts company. Their website says the business started in 1979 and they now have the second generation of family members working there with the third generation (kids now) waiting in the wings. I do love a local family-owned and run business. The particular chocolates I bought were: "Vanilla Caramels" and I would describe what I got as very good quality chocolate covering delicious and creamy soft caramel inside. The shop is in Rowley which is north of Boston...we live south of Boston so getting there would be a haul. Fortunately our in-town local family-run market sells Winfrey's chocolates. I am glad I took a chance on these as we all found them to be fresh and really delicious...in fact, so good they were all eaten that night. I saw in another Yelp review that someone especially loves their chocolate peppermint bark...I saw that option in the store too and while I know a lot of people love the mint-chocolate combo..I am not one of them. But for the holidays, I am guessing this will be a big seller. These chocolates would make for a nice hostess gift or stocking stuffer too and I will keep that in mind going forward this holiday season.

The bigger issue was the atmosphere. It didn't have the cute, fun candy store vibe I was expecting. The exposed concrete floors and dim lighting made the space feel a bit off putting and unfinished. I think the store would benefit from more decorations and a brighter, more whimsical design to make it feel more inviting. Not necessarily a bad store, but it wasn't what I expected based on the name and branding.
