Phillips Candies - Regular, white cheddar and caramel popcorn. - Candy Stores Near Me - Seaside, Oregon

What a great place! Love the clean open feel to this adorable candy shop. The taffy is some of the best I've ever had. The chocolates were great too. This a must stop if you want candy in Seaside. They also have soft serve ice cream and gelato. read more

Ambiance- it's a super clean store. If you cross the street there's the old school candy shop that is literally a time travel back to like 1960's but someone didn't clean it. Phillips is nicely decorated, floors are clean, candy and all is nicely organized and displayed. There's a lot of different candies: current candy and candy from our last: Zagnuts! They have a lot to choose from in the glass case! Customer service- the gal that helped pack our candy ha knowledge of what was in store! Super helpful. Overall nice store and we will be back. read more

These are the people for your sweet tooth. When in Seaside we always go in. The quality of the product is amazing. I also have them them ship my favorite candy to me. They are the best a jewel of the coast read more

While visiting Seaside, Oregon I wandered upon a candy store named Phillips Candies. Having a sweet tooth, that I unsuccessfully try to deprive, I just had to see what they fad inside. I was amazed, and even amused, at the selection of delicious, amusing, nostalgic, and incredible candies that were available! There were candies from my childhood, from my nightmares!, and from my dreams. I noticed that a good amount of the candy was made in-house and, all the candy I was brave enough to try, was excellent. The staff were all friendly and helpful and the store was clean and orderly. read more

Oh my gosh there's so much good stuff in here it's definitely worth the stop! They have lots of candy options as well as a huge assortment of chocolates. I ended up getting a milk chocolate haystack, a white chocolate snowball, and a peanut butter bar. The haystack was delicious and I recommend getting some of you love coconut! The snowball wasn't exactly my cup of tea. The outside was covered in coconut but the big ball it was covering tasted like a big ball of white chocolate fudge. A little too rich for me without much payoff in my mouth. The peanut butter bar was the best chocolate I've ever had though!! It was a small piece, sort of like a snack sized version of a candy bar you see around Halloween time. But anyways, it had a thin layer of milk chocolate and then the inside was a fluffy and airy peanut butter flavored chocolate! Closest thing I can compare it to would be a 3 musketeer bar with that same type of whipped chocolate except peanut butter flavored!! As someone who absolutely LOVES peanut butter, this was seriously amazing. Next time I visit seaside I'm going to get a bag full of those peanut butter bars! 10/10 you have to try them!! The workers were super friends as well. It's a great spot, great atmosphere, and has tons of choices between their candy and their chocolates. My mouth is watering just thinking about those peanut butter bars! read more

Expensive!!! Paid over $10 for 4 chocolates. Chocolates were good but not worth that much money. Caramel corn was also expensive, was pretty good. Service was okay read more

Sure, it's all expensive, but so is every store at the coast. It looks nice inside, spacious and clean. They have a great selection of candy, chocolates, popcorn and ice cream flavors. They also recently added fresh gelato machines!! The only downside is they use styrofoam cups instead of paper for the gelato. Not too eco-friendly but not bad enough to lessen my rating. The outstanding factor was the service. Everyone was so helpful and friendly. read more

Love this little shop. All the nostalgia candies zap me back to the 80s. Great popcorn, taffy & chocolates!

We were greeted as we made our way in to the store. I noticed a few tables along the front window to sit and enjoy a drink as I saw they do make coffee drinks and hot chocolate. We traveled along the back wall which had candy that could buy at almost any store. As we made our way back around to the front we stopped to look at the house made treats that the lady assured us were all made in house. Fudge, chocolates, truffles, popcorn etc. Chocolates were priced just under $20/lb. We opted for two pieces of seafoam (one milk, one dark) a chocolate covered oreo and a pecan cluster. For the four pieces it came out to just under $6. It was our first time experiencing seafoam...it wasnt bad, but not what I expected. The cluster and oreo were good. I didnt see any dipped apples--which would have been awesome. read more

We stopped in Phillips twice while in Seaside recently. They have tons of old school candy, delicious chocolate by the pound, popcorn, and gelato. I thought everything was really good, except I felt that the cheddar popcorn was too oily and $10 for a small. It's also pretty expensive, but like I said, we did go there twice because we did like their chocolates. read more

I truly do not know what I find more appealing! The fact that this little candy store has been fulfilling generations of candy dreams for kids since 1897, or the magic of watching the old taffy wrapping machine twisting the wrappers on the soft freshly made taffy! When you walk in the door you smell the caramel corn, see the case of chocolates, and hear the soft sound of the taffy wrapper chugging away. It's like being a kid again, there is so much to see. Every type of candy can be found! The staff are friendly and welcoming! On you next trip to Seaside, you have to stop in and find a few treats for yourself and/or you mom. Like I did! We have been coming here for 64+ years! read more

This place is the best will definitely come back, recommend and come lots of times on each visit, nice store inside, clean, friendly staff, lots of options for candy and so on. read more

They have everything! So many candies to choose from as well as caramel and cheese popcorn! I had hoped to try the sea foam chocolate but they were sold out. The staff were friendly and the building was interesting because the shop has been there more than 100 years! read more

Candy store in downtown Seaside OR One of the candy shops on Broadway Street in the heart of downtown Seaside. Dropped in to check out the displays of delicious treats and confections... the smell of the caramel corn lured us in. Mmmm! They have everything from salt water taffy to fruit slices & gummies to hand dipped chocolates. The fruit slices caught my eye, it must be one of their specialties, they have all kinds of flavors: lime, grapefruit, peach, pear, cherry, key lime, lemon, even chili mango! They have these in sour flavors too! Everything looked yummy and colorful in the glass display cases. Unfortunately (or fortunately), depends on how I look at it, I guess... fortunately, I didn't gain any pounds since I didn't purchase anything for me! I did buy a bag of salt water taffy for my boss to take back to Cali (taffies are one of her favorites). The chocolates are high quality but it was unfortunate that I didn't get to experience tasting any of them. I love my sweets, my favorites are chocolate with nuts and they have a variety of them. My braces don't like them, though LoL. I'll need to come back here another time when the grillz are off. The young staff were helpful and friendly. If you have a sweet craving while in Seaside, please stop here... I dare you to leave without something! Review #1421 read more

I love this place! You can watch them make taffy, get soft serve swirled ice cream or gelato. They have tons of candy, chocolates, and novelty candy. They have the best carmels! read more

They had about 15 flavors of taffy. Although, the taffy was wrapped strangly and when I went to eat them, most of them weren't even formed into a ball, and ended up just sticking to the paper making it difficult and messy to eat. They had some good chocolates to choose from as well as fudge. They also had a good selection of other specialty candies. I would shop here again for candy and chocolates, but not for taffy. read more

Great selection of candy, friendly staff , nice clean store. We tried their salt water taffy, chocolate & both were delicious. read more

Sent to family for Christmas. My kids grew up visiting Seaside and the beach and Phillips was always a favorite place to stop for treats. They've all grown up and moved away and have their own families. So, for Christmas, I sent them all a box of their favorite treats and they were thrilled! Sweet memories for everyone! Thank you Phillips for still making the best treats for all these years!! read more

We ordered sea foam and rocky road fudge by mail. It arrived promptly and was packaged well. The dark chocolate covering on the sea foam is of outstanding quality! We ordered the rocky road fudge based on other reviews. We sure wish we had ordered more because it was so delicious! We will be ordering more again soon. We were familiar with Phillips when we lived in Oregon and went to Seaside often. Now we live in California and it is so nice to have a "taste of home" to bring back happy memories. read more

Don't miss if you're in Seaside!!! Amazing candy store with awesome Carmel corn AND the best staff EVER! Ginny is so kind and sweet, making the candy store feel like a cozy childhood dream. read more

We went in this past Saturday to grab some treats for my girlfriend and myself. I'm not a big candy eater but I do enjoy cinnamon taffy occasionally and they did have some....their taffy is made in-house and pretty good. My girlfriend got dark sea foam chocolate and stated it was 'very good'. She also got a little old fashioned peppermint lozenges and shark gummy candy. The lady helping didn't seem very personable, but they did just open. Prices are a bit steep but they are in a coastal town which makes it a tourist trap.....overall pretty happy. Store was spotless! read more

This candy store has a large selection of sugar free candy and cute little boxes. They have chocolate covered coconut (sugar free) which you typically don't see at candy stores. There is also fresh popcorn that I will be going back for today. If you are a fan of salted caramel, their sea salt sugar free carmel are really good and they have the softer Carmel inside. We back for popcorn today and more candy. Also noticed the silver dollar shell candies read more

Worst salt water taffy Ever! Got a bag of their variety mix, and every single one was so chewy were they, that I couldn't pull my jaws apart without fear of loosening my teeth! They lacked that chewy yet soft feel of every other salt water taffy I have ever had. And the flavors... barely noticeable! I could hardly tell what flavor I had, save for the colors. Simply put: bleh. read more

Absolutely the BEST peanut brittle I have ever tasted. The candy is awesome, but not as awesome as Kathy, Tammi & Sue. These ladies were so extremely nice and I will be back to see them as much as for the peanut brittle. Thank you for making our visit fun! read more

The girls working at the store were so friendly and amazing. They have the best taffy in town and I would definitely recommend this place over the nasty candyman store. We got the mix 1/2lb bag for $4.49 and they were actually really really good! I'm not usually a big taffy fan but these have turned me around. They don't have a lot of flavors but the ones they do are tasty and doesn't make you feel like you are chewing a jawbreaker. I read that they make them in house which makes them a million times better than the multitude of flavors that have no flavor. read more

We have been visiting this candy shop since forever. Every trip we make a stop for their amazing chocolates and treats. Always have to get some milk and dark chocolate seafoam, plus mint meltaways. Kids like the chocolate covered Oreos, and coconut balls. Friendly service, very personable. Tons of candies to choose from...nostalgic, gummy, sour, sweet, hard, soft. They have got it all. read more

Claim to fame: the only shop in town to make their saltwater taffy in-house. We bought a 1/4 pound of the stuff for $2.50. Be forewarned, the stench of stale, fake-butter drenched popcorn will assault you as soon as you enter. read more

You have to stop here! The only place that makes taffy in the area and tons upon tons of treats. Great souvenirs & a special tear for you read more

Great store, great staff and great candy!! Super helpful with all questions and comments. Could not recommend more!!!

I'd never had Phillips Candies before - always just went to Tom & Larry's for fudge because that is where Grandma Elsie loved the best. Wow. These chocolates are mouth-watering nuggets of delight. I was recently a judge for the Miss Clatsop County Scholarship Program and was gifted a box of chocolates in my room. It was hard to not eat them all in one sitting! There was some kind of oreo delight, nutty crunchy chocolatey thing, cherry draped in sweetness, salt-covered chocolate with carmel inside...oh man I have to stop or I will keep eating them. I heard there is a new chocolateir in town there - well he sure knows how to do it right!! read more

Phillips Candies - mouth watering - Candy Stores Near Me - Seaside, Oregon

I have been going to Phillips for more years then I care to admit. Still the best candy store in Seaside. I love the Seafoam so much I could make myself sick on it. ( so I only ordered 2 pieces) Their chocolates are wonderful and great quality chocolate. Way better than most places. AND they still have wonderful hard caramel and cinnamon candies. The Service was so good I left the gal waiting on my a nice tip. Not something I would normally do in a candy store. read more

Used to be a cute small candy factory. They renovated and now nothing tastes the same and there's no bulk gummy candy. Just the same boxes you can buy at Safeway. :( read more

Best seafoam on the Oregon coast! Not fancy, but everything is made in house and tastes amazing.

Phillips Candy Kitchen has been in Seaside for longer than I've been alive. I cannot possibly walk past the store without going in. MUST HAVES: The caramel corn is second to none. I am a huge snob about caramel corn....try it. If you like cheese corn, I know many who are big fan's of Phillip's cheese corn too, but I hate they way it turns my fingers and teeth orange. They make their own taffy in-house.....don't buy into the "Candy Man's" street front giveaways....they ship theirs in from out of state, and it's stale and not as flavorful as Phillips. They also are the only candy store in Seaside to hand dip their chocolates on premises. Their fudge and nut brittles are also made right there. It just doesn't get any fresher or more hand made than at Phillips. They are the only place I've found west of the Mississippi to make seafoam, which I grew up knowing as "chocolate covered molasses puffs". But, if you would rather have Zots or Sourpatch Kids or candy cigarettes, they have plenty to choose from. Yeah, the popcorn smell is heavy, but that is because the popcorn popper is right by the door......it has honestly never bothered me. To me, that's better than bringing in the popcorn by the trash bag, which I've seen done at too many places. read more

I LOVED their taffy! The Lemon peanut butter taffy did not sound good, but it was incredible, and the chocolate peanut butter one was even better! There popcorn is really really good too. I loved the old fashioned feel to this place, and the unique collection of candy. Huge fan for sure, I can't wait to go back! read more

Yummy dairy free chocolate options. I got cashew bark, it was the size of my palm and ooohhh so decadent. I also got a couple haystacks, dark chocolate macaroons and a couple dark chocolate sea foams...soooo tasty. The ladies there were so nice too. Popcorn was dairy free and buttery. Perfect for taking back to my hotel and snacking:) read more

Yuck. I thought candy shops were supposed to be the happiest places in the world full of cheery people and yummy treats. Not so much at Phillips Candy Kitchen. We weren't greeted and the girl at the front had a really nasty attitude. We got a pound of fudge and a few pieces of the divinity bar. The fudge my best friend got was stale and made her want to puke and my divinity bar was dry and tasted like flour. If I wasn't so opposed to littering, I would've chucked it out the window on my drive down the coast it was so terrible. Disgusting. I would've liked to review a bit more about the other products they had but felt ready to go after the cashier's death stare. Absolutely not worth the time we spent there or the cash we forked over for their inedible "treats". read more

My wife and I go out of our way whenever we're at the coast for the Rocky Road fudge here. The hardest part about going in is deciding what else to get while we're there. So many of my favorite chocolates: Peanut Butter, Coffee and Malt truffles, Salted caramels and chocolate covered coconut. They also have very friendly staff and almost everything is made in house. A great Oregon company doing it right. A seaside tradition! read more

AMAZING. That is all I can say. AMAZING. I live in Phoenix, AZ. This spring we ordered over 10 lbs of the salt water taffy shipped down to us. Butter and Cinnamon. Devine. That is all I can say. HEAVENLY. Can not wait until my next trip up to Seaside, or next spring (as it gets too hot to ship taffy to Arizona) read more
