    Saw the sign on the highway and had to stop to check out the novelty of Pez. Had seen a documentary about Pez a few years ago and found it very interesting. The shop here is nice enough lots and lots of different Pez dispensers, some merch. I bought a tee shirt. Every time I wear it someone says like "wow! Pez !" There's a glass window looking into what seems to be a manufacturing of some sort but nothing was going on. Unfortunately. Would have been a complete experience to see some of that.

    Everything. Price point with cute activities. For $5 adult admission, do not expect it to be disney world or the louvre.

    I'm not a pez collector but this was really cool. I didn't know all the history and learning about it was interesting. Really cool seeing the various designs from over the years.

    Who knew that there was a PEZ factory in Connecticut? Certainly not me, but it was super cool to randomly drive by, see it, then do the craziest u-turn ever to check it out. Once you enter, you're greeted by a giant PEZ filled wall, with more varieties of PEZ than I've ever seen. The cost to get in is about $5, with $2 of that being a store credit. I spent about 30 mins walking around this place, and very the 40 foot tall PEZ that you can operate in the entryway, to the PEZ motorcycle on the second floor, there is so much to see! Most of my time was spent reading the plaques on the walls that outlined the history of PEZ candy, and then the other time I filled my basket with things to take back to Florida. Since it's technically a factory, there is an entire glass wall where you can watch the workers prepare and package the candy. I even saw flavors I didn't know existed. It's definitely worth a stop if you're ever in the area!

    Date of Visit: 8/27/21 This place has been on our friend's bucket list for decades and his dream finally came true. It's a combination store and museum for all things Pez. Staff is amiable, but not what I would call overly friendly. You can tell that they are not here because they are big fans of the little candy with the fun dispensers. There were no guided tours or staff interaction outside of admission and checkout. The fun facts and trivia along the wall is presented well and the various display cases show the evolution of the product, though far more effort could go into the curation of these displays to make them more interesting to visitors. You can see a small amount of the production floor, but there are no chances to interact with the manufacturing staff, which seems to be a lost opportunity for the diehard fans. Also available is a mix-and-match bucket of all of the flavors of Pez, including sugar cookie (meh), candy corn (better than expected), and sour pineapple (actually not too sour). Your admission gets you $2 off at the store and they do have some exclusive items, which is a nice touch. The game of the month also nets you a little prize--in our case a weird, random Pez dispenser.

    I felt like a big kid in a candy store! What a fun time with Pez!! The Pez Visitor Center is located in Orange, Connecticut. Here's what I learned: It's 4,000 square feet dedicated to all things PEZ! The largest, most comprehensive collection of PEZ memorabilia on public display in the world. There's a PEZ motorcycle built by Orange County Choppers there. I has the world's largest PEZ dispenser! There's a viewing area into their production area. Pro-tips: -Start with the history wall to learn some fun facts about PEZ. -The Welcome Map will help guide you and point out some features of our exhibit. -Be sure to play the game of the month. Game cards and directions are behind the world's largest PEZ dispenser which is located just inside the front doors. -On your way out, be sure to show your complete game card to one of their staff to claim your prize. -With each paid admission you receive $2 credit which may be used like cash and applied to any same day purchase. - The PEZ lanyard is your souvenir to keep! Definitely check out this spot if you live in Connecticut!

    Probably my all-time favorite museum. I've been perhaps 6 times, over about as many years. One thing I incredibly appreciate about this place is that they regularly rotate exhibits! Though some installations stay constant (which is fine, they have amazing things like vintage PEZ vending machines), every time I come there are several new dispensers, collectibles, and bespoke merch I've never seen before. As a lifelong PEZ collector, every visit here makes me gasp and rush to find something else I realize needs to be part of my collection. The employees are also very friendly, knowledgeable, and eager to make sure you have a great time - but especially for an eager-to-buy adventurer like me with a penchant for a good merch store, this place is just about the best around. PEZ Visitor Center t-shirts, hoodies, enamel pins, luggage tags, all the latest dispensers, so much great stuff! But the best thing of all? DECORATE YOUR OWN DISPENSER! For just a couple dollars, you can unwrap a blank surfaced dispenser and draw on it with the markers they provide. It's an awesome deal and a really fun memorable experience with a souvenir to match. With a $5 admission including a $2 store coupon as well as a scavenger hunt for a free dispenser prize, it's honestly difficult to imagine better value. Unless of course you're driving all the way from Massachusetts - which I've done before just to visit here, and am positive I will again!

    This was probably the most random places I've ever been. But, in a good way! This was one of our last stops before heading home from our road trip. I didn't think anything of it. Price of admission was $5 per person and you get a $2 coupon per person when you leave to buy a PEZ head. Basically it's FREE! Get to learn a little about when Pez was made and witness the manufacturing process of how it is made! Pretty cool to bring your kids, fams, or just for fun! One little complaint is. I wish they had more options of Pez heads of classics to new ones! it would be cool to have more selections! I mean after all you are the COMPANY!

    A great stop on our way to the Cape. You get a bingo card to find the year some of their displayed dispensers came out. There is a cost for entry but you get a store credit to purchase items. So much fun for an hour to break up our road trip.

    So MUCH fun! This place is a great way to spend an hour or so. It's pretty fun to see all the different Pez dispensers throughout history! It's $5 to get in if which you get a $4 store credit and a free lanyard to keep that's really cute. They have a lot of things to purchase and if you play the scavenger hunt game you get a free Pez dispenser at the end. It's a must do!

    We love Aldi's! The staff at West Haven are friendly and helpful. Clean store, easy to navigate. I…read moreshop there a couple times a week, and get much of my shopping done here. I would give 4.5 stars but no option to do so. Only reason I can't give 5 stars is that I would like to see more organic produce offered. I often head to the Milford Aldi for that, as they seem to get more in their store and more specialty items than West Haven does (e.g., non-Lunchables lunch kits, better and more selection of organic produce and meats). I know you can do it, West Haven ALDI! add it to your inventory, and people will buy it! thanks :-)

    My man and I stopped by this Aldi for the first time ever to kill some time while our car was being…read moreserviced nearby, but we won't be coming back. The moment we walked in, we were hit with a really chaotic environment. The aisles were dirty and the shelves were a total mess. As someone who gets anxious shopping in that type of atmosphere, I knew immediately I couldn't stay. We decided to leave without buying anything, but that's when things went from bad to worse. As we were walking out, another customer was entering the store with an item in their hand, which triggered the security alarm (likely because a cashier had been negligent and forgot to remove a tag). Suddenly, a younger employee came charging at us with an incredibly aggressive attitude. I've worked retail before, and you're taught to be polite and apologetic when investigating an alarm, but this guy was the opposite. When my man told him we didn't take anything, the worker just stayed confrontational. I finally asked, "Are you accusing us of something?" and he actually looked us in the eye and said, "Yes." An older manager simultaneously came out to tell the employee it was a mistake and that it was the other person who tripped the alarm, but the damage was done. Being falsely accused and approached so aggressively is completely unacceptable. This worker is honestly a liability, the next person they treat like this might not be as patient as we were. Would never recommend, would never come back!
