This store has never asked a kid to leave ever, I have never seen such a grumpy old obnoxious individual since the 80s, and I've been coming here for the last 30 years with my children and now my grandchildren. They always go out of their way to make sure everybody is accommodated and they even set up face painting and tattoos for the kids outside. This is a very welcoming store to all and a family candy store in downtown York Beach, Maine. Considering you came in so hot with that hat on and you were definitely trying to make a political statement in a candy store that caters to families.

I visited Sweet Josies on Sat. Sept. 19th, around 4:00, The person behind the counter seriously…read moreneeds to learn customer service. I'm not familiar with the area, and when I saw what looked like either another candy store right next door or possibly an extension of Sweet Josie's, I casually asked the woman behind the counter if the two stores were affiliated. Not only was my question ignored the first time, but when I asked again, I was actually called "rude" for asking about another business. I was shocked and completely taken aback, especially with my son standing right next to me. Needless to say, I left the items I was about to purchase on the counter, walked out, and went into the candy store next door. The difference was night and day. The woman behind that counter was professional and helpful, and the store itself was immaculate. Unfortunately, the same could not be said for Sweet Josie's. Many of the candy bins were half empty, several contained a mishmash of different candies, and the chocolates behind the glass were not particularly impressive. Customer service matters, and this experience was enough for me to take my business elsewhere. If you're looking for a better experience, I'd recommend going next door to Sweet York Beach. I was greeted immediately, the store was clean & organized, with a great variety of candy & chocolates.

I was in here yesterday to pick up a friend & myself some mild chocolate nonpareils. I was sooooooo…read moredisappointed to see the increase in prices on their bagged candies & nuts and the contents being less than how much they use to fill the bags up with the product. I get that most everything has gone up in price but to give less and charge more is outrageous and I don't agree with it. I saw lots of things I wanted to buy & bring back home (Vegas) to share with my co-worker's but I just didn't want to pay the price for 1/2 the amount. It's definitely a great store to go in and look @ all their products, even stuff from your childhood. I'm sure out of towners have no problem spending the amount that Yummies is charging too so I'll save it for them!! Iol I did have to get some fudge as I saw they had my favorite which is penuchi without nuts & it was delicious!! This is a better deal because the price is based on weight, so no skimping there!! This is a must store to stop in if you have a sweet tooth and you're in town or close by!! They do have some souvenirs you can buy and a bunch of non-editable gifts. I did see the cutest stuffed lobster animal & wanted to buy it until I saw the price. Great selection of t-shirts too! Enjoy & have fun!

You have to go outside Warren's to get into this cute little gift shop. Right when I walked in I saw the cutest kitchen towels on a rack to my right that caught my attention. They also had some adorable pot holders. I was surprised at how reasonable their prices are. I picked up a cat pot holder & kitchen towel with cat faces all over it. There were a few I was torn between so it was a little hard to make a decision on which one to get. They have a bunch of souvenirs here too. Saw some Maine magnets & Warren's beer glasses & shot glasses. I like to collect shot glasses of places I go & the beer ones too but I ended up just getting a shot glass. As I continued on I ran into these super cute lobster sleep pants! I was in need of some warm pants as I'm headed up to ME to go to my family's camps & forgot to grab some sweatpants from my home back in Vegas. They don't have a dressing room so before I bought the pants I asked if they didn't fit if I could return them & was told yes, with my receipt. I was surprised to find the shop went around the check out counter. Here I found a small area of discounted items & another counter with some candy around the area. It's a very small candy store nothing like the one on Route 1 Kittery Outlets. In this area I found the "treasure chest." I over heard a male customer asking the lady @ the counter...who I actually think was the owner, what you won if you got the treasure & she said money to spend in the store. There was a bunch of other nicknacks in this store too. I tried to take lots of photos. I will have to take pictures of my items I bought & post them later. This place is a must to come inside after eating @ Warren's to see if you have the winning "treasure key!" I also suggest if your around the area to stop in. It's worth your time!! The parking lot can be packed due to Warren's always seeming to be busy but don't let this keep you away! The lady who rang me up (who I mentioned earlier, I think is the owner) was very nice & answers all my questions.

They have plenty of parking and a good sized menu of ice cream options. Sometimes an ice cream shop tries to be more than just an ice cream shop which can make a menu a confusing and overwhelming.

Parts of this restaurant, actually reminded me of my friend's Mémère's homes along with the wonderful treats and meals. They definitely have a wonderful breakfast menu that is simple and so very satisfying. The bacon - perfection. The pancakes, delicious and filling. The blueberry crumb/coffee cake - moist and delicious. If I had one criticism...it would be the tiny far of maple syrup - not the right ratio, with the size of pancakes they offer. It's ok. I was able to take leftover pancakes home...they reheated really well and I have plenty of Maine maple syrup at home. As part of the restaurant (or vice versa) there is a connected store - which sells almost ever candy imaginable. We love the 12+ different flavors - they are fresh, so it's best to eat them within a week before they start to take on the taste of the wrapper. They are very tender pieces of taffy - not too hard. Makes them really easy to eat - very dangerous LOL This is definitely one of my favorite places in York. I can't wait to return before the start of the next tourist season. Parking is street or in lots about a block/across the street - pay for parking. Download the app in advance.
