    Candy at a reasonable price. I would have wanted to see more options from my childhood. The store runs under a couple that were pleasant but not super friendly. The store is located in the cutest Village.

    Last seen at the Vanderbilt Planetarium in the 1980s.

    This place is a must if you're in the area. They've got old school candy I've not seen since before the Great War. Tons of cool things from around the world, too.

    This shoppe has a lot of old skool candy from generations back. It was fun walking through and spotting the candies I loved as a kid. We picked up a basket and filled it with stocking stuffers for the kids, and picked up some of my favorites too. Check it out for gifts or to treat yourself. The store is charming and service was friendly.

    Candy everywhere!

    How did I not know that this was here sooner? The store was packed when we walked in so we just knew that we found something good here. The adults had bigger smiles on their faces than the children in here, myself included. We found Black River Candy Shoppe after lunch on the first October weekend and I was in sweet sugary heaven when I walked in. The displays are so inviting to just pick up everything and throw it into your shopping basket. The pre-weighed and pre-priced baggies made it especially easy to shop. They offer every nostalgic favorite mixed with all of the creative seasonal - chocolate foiled wrapped jack o lanterns, sour gummy pumpkin, cherry gummy eyeballs.. I bought it all. The most fun part was bringing my little paper bag full of candy home and dumping it on the counter to share with my family. Everyone's eyes lit up when they saw the festive variety. I can't wait to go back and re-stock on goodies!

    this place is every kids dream! to start off, this candy shop is located in this cute little town center village surrounded so many other cute shops. this place has a lot of unique candy that you don't see in stores. definitely worth looking around. theres a little something for everyone!

    Cigarette boxed candy were the rage back in the days when we tried to look cool.

    An absolute treasure to this wonderful town. Fell in love with both the town and the shop. For those of us who are over 45 years of age, we remember some of those old time candies such as the "cigarette" box that really had candy in it. Pez dispensers that are vintage. Mary Janes, these clear blue wrapped hard crystal candies that only our grandparents liked, chocolate dinosaurs within an egg, the list could go on and on. Prices are a tad higher but I believe it's all due to nostalgia. Bringing back the memories of yester years when things just seemed simpler. As you peruse around the shop reminiscing, be sure to get a basket by the front and put some of those beloved candies in for you to take home and share with your kids. Show them that once upon a time you were a kid too and this is the cool candy you grew up on.

    Every type of candy and sweet treat your little heart could desire resides within the four walls of this candy shop. Right off Main Street in Chester, Black River Candy Shoppe is a kid and adults dream. Grab a basket when you walk in and follow the arrows on the floor. You won't be disappointed

    When they say "like a kid in a candy shop," now I know what they mean! What a fun place. So many candies from my youth, as well as a great assortment of chocolates, gummies and other goodies. They even had Chick-O-Sticks! The owners were lovely and very helpful.

    Old school candy store !

    This place brings me back to my childhood, well what I can remember of it. They have candy you can pay for by pound and they have candy in little bags to buy. This store has lots of types of candy that you can't get in the food store ! I believe this candy is great for Christmas and special occasions or any occasion! They have lots of my favorites! Cow tales, Mr. Goodbar, peanut chews and so much more ! I'm sure they have your favorite also. They have lots of parking in front of the store . Watch out becasue you can spend a lot of $$ in this store because it's all so tempting ! This is the perfect store for Chester!!

    Highly recommend the "irish potatoes" (in season), good selection of REAL British (Cadbury) chocolate, and - believe it or not - salt water taffy.

    We had a nice time at this farm today. It was our little one's first time apple and pumpkin…read morepicking. We made sure we bought our admission tickets online because we would got $4 discount that way (as mentioned on their website). It was $19.50 at the farm. The admission ticket included: - free parking - One small pumpkin (we got ours) - use of red wagons and scissors - lawn games and corn hole - photo ops - wagon ride We also brought our own reusable bag for apple picking. We enjoyed the wagon ride to the pumpkin patch and back to the apple orchard. We got to pick some apples, enjoyed the live music and shopped at farmstand. I bought a dahlia flower bouquet for $30 and beehive honey butter scented candle for $17.50. We also bought some food at the farm but it was a bit pricey. The chicken burger ($10) was good but I didn't like that was a little charred and it was small. My husband liked the bratwurst and apple cider sauerkraut ($10.50) but he also thought the bratwurst was small. I think they should let people know that you can pick the zinnias flowers ($1 per stem) as well. I didn't know that until we were leaving so I rushed back and picked some. Overall, we had fun.

    Great place to bring the kids in the fall for apple picking, pumpkin picking, etc. All that fall…read morejazz. You can spend a lot of time here. Some places are a one trick pony. Lots of activities for the kids. We will be back next year.
