If you can get past that, you will enjoy the excellent ice cream and family-friendly facility. A lot of the gift store items are potty humor related but if you have the slightest sense of humor you'll be able to enjoy yourself. There are lots of fun attractions like putting your hand in the aliens mouth, Putt-Putt golf, and other fun stuff. They have a newsletter and many different types of fudge. The potty humor for the fudge amps up to 5th or 6th grade humor. If you survived Elementary School, you should be able to handle this. Visit their website to see the level of humor expected. Again, the ice cream was excellent and served by a staff of teens. The facility was clean and I like the use of graffitied vintage chairs and furniture in the ice cream eatery. Keep an open mind when you visit and remember that off color jokes don't injure or change the taste of really good ice cream!

I stopped here thinking it was the one I was at six months ago. Turns out this is another location…read more I think the one in Richmond is much better insofar as the customer service, plus is much bigger. My spouse bought a pound of their hand dipped chocolates that the girl behind the counter put in a bag. We were going to be traveling several hundred miles so I asked if she could please put them in a candy box. She said sure, I'll just dump them in the box. Before I could say anything she did exactly that, Dumped them in the box straight out of the bag instead of placing each one in there individually. Seriously??? Then at the check out the clerk was rude when I asked her to put the various boxes of chocolate we were buying in the bag in size order so they wouldn't be tipping all over. I said we had several hundred miles to travel. She didn't seem to care, but did what I asked with a bit of a huff. Guess what Uranus, your fudge and chocolates aren't cheap. They're very good, but pricy. That's okay, I'm willing to pay it. People buy for themselves and for gifts. I don't think it's too much to ask your employees to handle them property whether putting them in a box or bagging them up at checkout. Please, re-educate your employees on courtesy and professionalism. If it weren't for the quality of the candy you'd get a one star review. Needless to say I won't return to this location again. The Richmond location will get my business in the future.

Right next to Burmeister's is this flea market shop for those whose tastes lean more towards…read morebargains than collectibles. The space is much larger than it appears since it occupies the building to the west of the entrance as well as even more space to the rear. It's one of those shops that you wind around from booth to booth while hearing religious music blasting out in each room. The quality of what you find here varies greatly from booth to booth. Some specialized and had items like vinyl albums, or railroad themed items, maybe some Christmas related items. Other booths sold things like refinishing paint or toys. And some looked like what you might find at a garage sale...a little bit of everything that they no longer wanted. The shop also features a candy store in the first room beyond the main entrance. Not sure why candy is sold at a shop like this, but there were two staff seated here, so I assume it must be a draw of some sort. I will say that if you are someone who enjoys browsing and looking for a bargain, this is worth checking out. I definitely found it more appealing than the shops to the east at the Galleria. But I didn't see much that I would consider Antiques or true vintage. Review #3557

My SD was not causing any problems, he walked by my side quietly the whole (almost) 2 hours in there. The woman that kicked us out WATCHED us walk in (while she sat and smoked right by the entrance) and so did multiple other employees. Not one word about my German Shepherd, not one. I understand "no pets", but no medical equipment (that's what a service dog is)?!? I could understand if he was acting up, not a peep out of him though. And why let me make it through your whole store and when I'm just about ready to leave then someone speaks up?!? So again if you want to be treated like a toddler go here, if not RUN the other direction. I don't care if it's store policy, FEDERAL LAW and the ADA cover Service Animals in ALL places EXCEPT sterile environments. I can definitely tell you that this place is definitely NOT a sterile environment. I will NEVER set foot in there again and will make sure my friends and family don't either. The woman that kicked us out was so immensely rude and she tried to talk over me when I was explaining my rights as someone that requires a Service Dog. She didn't want to be educated on the laws, she wanted to cause a scene at MY expense. NEVER AGAIN.

All the cupcakes were moist, and a great flavor; too often when you visit bakeries they have frozen the cupcakes and I can always taste that. These were fresh!

We got a German chocolate cupcake, which is chocolate cupcake with caramel and coconut-pecan frosting. It was big enough for two people, for sure. The Cookie Monster cupcakes were cute, and there were also cupcakes that looked like sundaes, plus a lot of other flavors, like strawberry cream, pina colada, cherry, M&M and others. Along with cupcakes, you'll also find ice cream, pie and cake slices, cookies, bulk candy, and a whole two walls full of packaged candy, including old fashioned candy like Pez, Chuckles, wax lips and other novelty sweets. This is a sweet and charming little store for all things sweet, located in a vintage-looking building. Parking is on the street or in the small free parking lot a short ways away.

The shop so perfectly fits the downtown Franklin vibe -- there's a LOT of goodies crammed into a small space, unique things you won't easily find elsewhere (the candies from around the world is such a cool idea), and of course the ice cream. You'll have to wind your way back through the shop to pay, all while treating to keep your ice cream from melting on you. Depending on the line and your speed, you may finish before you pay! Tons of ice cream flavors to choose from, you'll be able to find something you like. If you like ice cream or candy -- which is most people, I'd dare to say -- you should stop in here.

So basically, this part of Main Street is candy central. Maybe these guys decided to team up, and figured that a rising tide lifts all boats. The Candy Emporium seems to have more commercial and old-fashioned candies than the other place. They also seem to get nasty with the licorice here, and in particular, black licorice. OK! I won't let you know my opinion about black licorice, those murdered-out pieces of vile rubber, because I don't want to yuck your yum. But if you are a black licorice fan, this is your place. They have bulk chocolates by the pound here (minimum 1/8 pound), plus lots of packaged candies -- everything from Starbursts to Laffy Taffy to Razzles and Necco Wafers.
