    The original George's on the Ocean City boardwalk
    Jeff H.

    George's is yet another longtime tradition on the Ocean City boardwalk....dating from the early 1950s. They are best known for their awesome macaroons which are shipped all over the USA. These almond and coconut cookies are not cheap but are def tasty. George's is also known for its fudge and salt water taffy. You can watch the salt water taffy being created and pulled in the front window. If you are strolling the boardwalk, check it out.

    I can't speak to the "Candies" part of George's name, but they should probably tack on "Ice Cream" to this listing too! There's a special walk-up window for ice cream orders right on the boardwalk. We were visiting on a warm Sunday afternoon in June and the wait wasn't too long. My cousin had raved about their ice cream, so I knew I had to give it a shot even though I had already had a cone at Kohr Bros. YOLO, right? You can request samples of any and all flavors (and there are many!), so I asked to try the blueberry. While it was tasty, it was WAY too sweet for me, so I asked for a scoop of the chocolate chip cookie dough instead. One scoop was seriously massive and plenty for most people. I wouldn't recommend ordering two scoops unless it's 100 degrees outside and you want to pour some over your head! The quality was evident in each spoonful. I'd have to say my cousin was right about this spot. It's delicious!

    George's Candies have the best coconut macaroons on the boardwalk. They travel well so they would be a great gift to bring to a loved one back home. The cookies are chewy and not dry at all. I will definitely be back soon to get some more & to try more of their handmade chocolates.

    Our first time trying George's for breakfast and it was delicious! The portions were generous for the price and being right on the boardwalk. The servers and service was great! Would definitely make this a regular stop in OCNJ

    Whose hungry for frozen "hash" Browns? Very disappointed.

    Lots of great reviews for breakfast but I was very underwhelmed. The likes -super friendly staff. I don't know if they are all family but it seems that way and I like that -location. Right on the boardwalk with street parking within blocks -food for the most part was average. Pancakes were very tasty. Pricing is high compared to that of a diner but that is to be expected. This is a seasonal business after all The dislikes -food. Home fries are prefrozen squares. Very disappointing. Pricing on juice is very very high. For a family of 4 you'll rack up a 12.00 bill before even ordering your food. Eggs lacked flavor. I really don't understand any review over 3 stars for this place. Shoved in the corner of a tourist trap store, (you know the kind with all those knick knacks with your child's name on it and plush) this place is nothing special. I doubt we will return.

    Everything they sell, they charge .50 cents to $1.00 extra per pound vs. what the price says in the display case. Straight up thievery.

    Thieves. Everything in their store rings up 50 cents to a dollar more per pound than the prices in the display case. A request to be charged the ACTUAL price on display is met with resistance or pleas of ignorance. In the picture for example, the 1/2 Almond Butter Crunch is marked 14.99 / lb on the shelf, but they insisted on charging 15.50 / lb. They do this with all of the items in their case. Does this make a big difference in the grand scheme of things? Of course not. But it's conscientious, deliberate, and continuous. They didn't much care when I alerted them (nor did the change the marked prices, they're still there), so I doubt they'll care much about this review. Just check your receipt VERY carefully and make sure you're only charged what the price is, not charged an extra margin for greed.

    I come to Ocean City, New Jersey a couple time a year and every time I go I have to get George's ice cream! I always get chocolate fudge madness. The prices are pretty good for being a boardwalk vendor and the serving sizes are decent. Great place to go if you like hand dipped ice cream.

    Blueberry Cheesecake ice cream! So good!
    Erica M.

    With ice cream shops being every third shop on the board walk, it's hard to figure out where to stop to cure a craving. I took a peek at George's to see if any flavors stood out - I had to try the blueberry cheesecake ice cream and absolutely loved it! So much flavor in a little cup. I also recommend buying some candies and chocolates for gifts or midnight snacks. The breakfast is also a great option and the only place I'll go for a bite to eat in the morning. I've tried the omelettes and the French toast, both better than the diners I've tried in Ocean City.

    Georges has the best dark chocolate raspberry creams in the country! We go there on a regular basis to get our supply of special treats.

    We sampled a variety of freshly made fudges including sea salt caramel, vanilla, Oreo, and mint…read more The fudge here is softer and pan-prepared, which is quite different from the loaf-style Mackinac Island fudge I'm used to (my personal gold standard). That said, it was still delicious, and the flavor selection made for a fun tasting experience. The sea salt caramel was probably the standout for me. The shop itself has that pure Ocean City boardwalk charm, an old-school candy store with a wide range of sweets, some clearly made in-house, alongside nostalgic classic candies. It's the kind of place where you just want to linger and explore. Staff were excellent, very friendly and welcoming. We were with our oldest, just browsing and tasting together, and it made for a memorable little stop. Highly recommend. This is a must-hit for anyone walking the boards in OC. I'll definitely go back.

    Okay, so this is saying a lot coming from me . . . I am an Ocean City girl through and through!…read more Been coming here since I was literally age 5 with my very beloved, departed grandparents (God rest their souls). I felt like getting away last night, so my son and I took the almost hour ride to OC. There were literally only four stores on the boardwalk open! Fudge Kitchen was one of them :) We had a fun time perusing the store. The one male employee there was super nice. I got some (wowee fresh!) Swedish fish; my son, cashew bark (thickest I've ever seen) and we got some Macaroons for my daughter who stayed back. Although I felt like I was "cheating" on Shriver's (a family tradition that started with my aforementioned grandparents), I must say that everything we had was yummy, plus the store was very clean and organized.
