The staff are extremely friendly and polite, and love their job. The table seating is ok, that's my only gripe, but it's minor and is expected to appear that way being an old fashioned family candy store. There is a certain appeal to this store that you cannot shirk from. Not only do they sell ice cream, candy, fountain drinks, and popcorn, they also sell Stuffed animals and letters/cards. It's a throwback to the days I never got to experience. To make it even better, it's only a short steps away from a small but interesting toy store next door! My name is Brandon Thomason, and I'll see you next monday!

The place is so cute…read more It's such an old school vibe with all the glass candy jars and it smells just like caramel popcorn when you walk in. The line was long, but the two ladies were very efficient very quick. It went pretty fast. I got the Oreo cone ice cream with a few different chocolate. I tried these pineapple gummy's. They had that my niece got they were so delicious. Highly recommend those but everything here it's overall great to get the caramel popcorn too. It's fresh and delicious.

Not a big selection, but nicely displayed and FREE SAMPLES! Just a little factory in an older but well kept building with an older lady sitting behind a tiny counter (stacks of paperwork behind her), ready to take your order or answer questions! You get the picture. They have several antique items and machinery. Behind a windowed door you can peek into the factor that concocts these delicious things!

The gal who helped me out was really friendly and helpful.... I have 2 things I recall liking from these shops one is molasses chips... My honest opinion See's is better maybe because it is crunchier and more dense...these seemed to be lighter but they were still good.... Next is Butter Almond Toffee....Yes this definitely was on par and great crunch and taste.....

This candy store has a very good selection overall, with something for everyone. I purchased two…read moreboxes of chocolates -- a truffle box and an assorted box -- and both were made in-house. The chocolates are definitely the highlight: they taste premium, are beautifully made, and feel high quality. They're slightly on the expensive side, but worth it if you want really good chocolate. About half of the store appears to be their in-house chocolates and truffles, while the other half consists of gummies, taffy, and other candies that are sourced from elsewhere. I did ask before buying, so I knew -- but unless you ask, it's not very clear what's made in-house and what isn't. A bit more transparency would be helpful. The gummies I tried were excellent (and I even got a great $1 bundle deal). The taffy, sourced from Salt Lake City, had good flavor but was firmer and more rubbery than the soft, melt-in-your-mouth texture I prefer. Overall, a strong 4 out of 5 stars -- great chocolates and selection, with just a little room for clearer labeling.

I visited Cravin's about a month before my trip to Rome to try their gelato. The visit and the…read moregelato did not disappoint. I arrived about 45 minutes before closing, and the young lady managing the store was super friendly and helpful. I explained that I wasn't sure what time they closed because the information on Yelp and Google did not match. She said she would update the operating hours to match. There's a lot of sugar inside, and the sweet aroma smacks you in the face the moment you open the door. I walked around the store, asked a bunch a questions, and then made my way to the gelato. The young lady explained that the gelato is made by a man from California, and it is brought in fresh. There are a lot of flavors to choose from, and they all look amazing. While I was trying to choose, I was offered many samples, which did help me decide on my choice. I got some gelato for myself and some for my wife, who was patiently waiting at home. While it didn't live up to gelato stand by the Trevi fountain or near St. Marks Basilica in Venice, it was damn good. If you're craving sweets, make sure to check Cravin's Candy Emporium.

They also have a great selection of drinks, and what I loved most is the attention to detail when making them. You can tell they take pride in every cup -- perfectly balanced flavors, beautiful presentation, and just the right level of sweetness. It's not just a drink, it's an experience. The seating area inside is really cute and inviting, making it a great place to sit, relax, and enjoy your treat. Whether you're meeting a friend or just want a little chocolate moment to yourself, it's the perfect spot. Highly recommend if you're a chocolate lover!

What a great candy store!!!…read more First of all it is such a throwback to the original candy stores, I mean way way back. It's wonderful!! The store has bulk, candy from the past, and current candies like pez. The people at the counter were wonderful. They have soda in the coolers. Little gift packages you can fill and buy, boxes and pails. I got Keroppi candy. And a Pez for my mom I'd never seen before. Everything is so tempting!! It's a bit pricy though. Bring your money... if I can afford it, you can too.

They always have such a big variety of goodies. Walking in, it's hard not to get overwhelmed by all the goodies, colors and displays. We went straight to the display counter to look at the truffles and to see if they had the Dubai bar. We were the only ones in the store. It was quite weird not to see a sales associate for a good amount of time. We located the bar, she decided against the bar since she can get one local for the same price and almost double in size. We walked around the store and looked at all the fun stuff. I love how everything is so organized and clean. When you have multiple customers through out the day going in and out of a bin, it's nice to see that it's clean. I personally don't like candy in bulk cause of potential germ contamination. But honestly, I have boughten candy from this joint and I have never had any issues since they keep it so clean. If your looking for a small sweet treat, Lolli and Pops would be a great store to grab your goodies at. Our even a fun gift for someone that likes sweets. They have a little of everything which is nice! Customer service wasn't the best when we were there. But we didn't stress about it. Maybe next time customer service will be better.

This is the store for t-shirts, mugs, knick knacks, snacks, postcards, and more Boise, ID memorabilia. On Saturday afternoon, a kind gal was at the counter and she showed me the ladies sizes on the floor. In the front wall, there are many samples of numbered t-shirts. Behind her at the counter cubbies, there shirts in several colors available to be pressed with the design of your choice. We chose two womens designs and one men's designs and these were pressed right in front of us. Aside from shirts, we got other goodies as well. I've already written out and mailed most of the postcards we purchased and added things to my little scrapbook. Nice store to visit and shop for Boise, ID stuff!

Custom t-shirts seem to be their specialty-they have a few shirts on display and you can request a specific size or color and they can whip it up for you onsite.

They have a huge selection of candy, including old school ones you'll have a hard time finding other places like Pop Rocks, candy cigarettes, and those weird UFO wafers. You can also find novelty items like funny magnets, plush toys, and silly stationary, plus some international candies and branded items like Harry Potter jelly beans, Hello Kitty ramen, collectible Sailor Moon/Dragon Ball Z drinks, and ramune sodas. Plus, the staff is always super nice. It's often pretty busy with families and kids popping in and people stopping by to get candy before a movie, but every time I've been there they have gone out of their way to greet us when we walked in, help us find anything we needed, and chat with us while we checked out.

Customer service needs ALOT of improvement though as that left much to be desired. It was not busy at all when I was in the store, but I was not acknowledged by the store associate. I expected her to greet me and perhaps tell me about in store promotions or at least ask if I was looking for something specific, but none of that happened. She wasn't just standing around, though, at least.. she was working on tasks for the store both behind the register and on the sales floor. After browsing the store for a while, I came across items that interested me and went to check out.. the employee still didn't greet me whatsoever or even so much as smile. She told me my total, I paid, she handed me my purchases and I thanked her before leaving which she responded "yeah". It's a shame that the candy store itself is very inviting and exciting, but the employee looked as though she'd rather be anywhere else.
