Far better than we have gotten from Joseph's or Costco! Saving the "prime" for maybe Fathers Day? ‍. Fresh fish looked good too but came to try steaks. Picked up some store made mild salsa and enjoyed some on the patio today! I loved it! But don't recall if they offered a spicier version...which my son prefers? Only negative I could find is they don't offer a very large deli variety; nor do they make many salads to choose from. Joseph's has them beat there! Mostly I'm THRILLED a butcher shop is open past 5:00PM! Commuters and lazy people like me will appreciate that!!

I saw this place as I was walking to the Arcada Theatre. It is a small storefront that shares the…read moresame building as the theatre and has an entrance from the inside of the theatre as well as from the side street around the corner. A name like "Chicago Turtle Factory" caught my attention, since it depicted a cartoon turtle on its sign. This is a nice little candy and popcorn shop run by two charming Indian guys. I came in and found what I wanted immediately: chocolate covered raisins layered in a very thick coating of chocolate, just the way I like it. Then I looked around and saw something my 6 year old would like: red, white and blue gummy toy soldier chewy candy. And something for my older son: chewy candy slices covered in sugar. As I bought these things, the man at the counter offered me a sample of his own toffee, made right there. While I am not a toffee fanatic, one taste of the smooth tasting and crunchy toffee, and I knew my wife would love this. So I ended up spending quite a bit of time and money before I was done here. I even came back into the store after I had already found my seat at the theatre. Besides their own hand-dipped chocolate treats, the store carries a variety of bulk candies, nuts, or jelly beans. There's also old-time favorites you can't find these days, like those candy cigarettes some people might remember seeing long ago, but are now frowned upon by those who think they encourage smoking in kids. Since the Turtle Factory is connected to the theatre lobby, it is like a concession shop for Arcada patrons. And looking for good cheesy popcorn? They got some gourmet cheese corn in small bags at the counter too. Since I look forward to return to Arcada, I know I will be back in here again as well.

Pros: - great service with free samples. The friendly…read moreemployee gave me this huge slice of a turtle chocolate the size of a business card cut in half lengthwise. It was the biggest sample that I've ever received at a chocolate/candy store. The caramel was fresh and not stale, and my eyes went like O_O when I saw the gigantic size of one whole turtle! It was the size of my palm lol. - nice selection of gummy candies and chocolate-covered goodies. A lot of the non-prepackaged candies are stored in these large plastic container jars. - caramel & cheese popcorn was delicious, a good non-Garrett's contender. - convenient location right next to Starbucks. I can just walk here from the library. I have a fondness for sour gummy candies so I picked out a few like sour grapefruit, black cherry, green apple, and striped strips. Of those, I liked the sour grapefruit the best. The total came to $2.79, priced at $3.99/half-pound. Gummybears are about $2.99/half-pound, some sour gummies at $3.99, others priced higher. The cheese & caramel popcorn was $5.99 for a large bag the size of a gallon of milk. You can get 2 for $10, or a smaller size for $3.99. Cons: - needs better interior design. A candy store should evoke memories of childhood and happiness. The interior design for this business seemed too utilitarian for me. Someone should pretty this place up. - unfortunately, I spotted at least two gummy varieties that didn't look fresh, like there was liquid towards the bottom of the jar.

Walking in it has the feeling of an old time candy story with its own modern twist. The front of the store is candy from all different countries and as you walk in there are little play areas for kids, along with their boba tea menu. The back of the store is set up for the birthday parties and they coordinate everything for you. The party host kept the kiddos entertained and engaged throughout the whole time. It's small so I don't know that it can hold a large number I think this party was about 10-12 kids. I'd say this might be for older kids 5 or 6 and up that can sit still with activities it's not a place to run around or get wild like a park for example. Overall super cute and great experience will definitely visit again.
