This place is so cute! Small but delivers really good taffy!!! It's soft, chewy and has a ton of flavor!! We bought a 1lb fit each of my family members! My favorite is the cherry cola. Salted caramel and strawberry. It's honestly good taffy!

We went in expecting to buy the little one a few pieces of cinnamon taffy, her favorite, and ended up being a pound (which we do not need!). There is a great selection of different flavors and we were too weak to resist. We did not count but there has to be at least a couple of dozen. So far, we've tried a few pieces and the flavors are spot on. The taffy is soft and fresh. Now the question is who is going to eat all this taffy?

I.LOVE.TAFFY. And this is probably hands down the best taffy I've ever had! My favorite is cherry, but they have so many varieties to try. I highly recommend stopping!

Once I walked in to the store, it was amazing! Got a caramel apple and it was delicious!

Just a smidge of the options

This is one of two highly recommended salt water taffy shops in Estes Park, and I saw why immediately. We walked in and I was blown away by all the flavor options. 50 different flavors! I think we got a little sample of each and I loved each one :) Took photos of all of the options to help figure out which ones we were eating (would love if they put together a digital "cheat sheet" of the kids/colors).

Taffy was super soft and great tasting. The price is extreme though. $18 a pound. Also as we stood watching the taffy get made in the window, we noticed a ton of dead bugs and a live fly all over the inside of the window sill. Just curious how many bugs get intertwined with their taffy.....

Some of the best taffy I've had anywhere. It's really hard to beat this place and highly recommended if you are into this.

They give everyone a free piece when they walk in, which I thought was a very nice touch.

Visited today with my wife, who specifically loves tiger butter, and we mentioned this while…read morespeaking with the older gentleman behind the counter. Unfortunately, he didn't seem very interested in helping or ensuring we received what we asked for. We purchased three pieces of chocolate for $23, which already felt expensive, and when we returned to our hotel we realized they had given us the wrong chocolates--no tiger butter at all. We tried calling the shop to address the mistake, but it went straight to voicemail. Between the lack of customer service, the error with our order, and the high price point, the experience was very disappointing. For the cost, the quality did not meet expectations. Sadly, this place feels past its prime, and I wouldn't recommend it.

I love the nostalgic, retro vibe of this place. And I really appreciate the fact that they offer…read moreanything sugar-free, as several places in Estes Park do not. That being said, the elderly gentleman who took our order wasn't nearly as sweet as the product he was selling. In fact, he seemed put out to see a patron enter into his establishment at all. Regardless of the stale service received, this is a unique spot for families, with plenty of space for kids to run around, amidst a fun colorfully lit backdrop that gives off an arcade feel from an era gone by. The framed canine on the wall, much beloved by its owner, is a cute touch too. The sweet snacks once sampled back in the car weren't terribly fresh, but we plan to visit again and try more items on the expansive menu.

They've basically covered everything except the cash register in chocolate. Major credit for limitless options. It took me several minutes to finalize the impossible decision. Because I'm a s'mores girly, I opted for the chocolate dipped concoction of Graham crackers, marshmallows, and peanut butter. The aesthetic was on point. See picture! Decorated so adorably. Unfortunately the taste didn't quite match. The chocolate tasted minty? Not even like natural mint flavor but more like the taste of too much extract. This item wasn't advertised as something with mint included and it certainly wasn't welcome in a s'mores treat. Not sure if they add the mint flavor to all of their chocolate but be aware! It really messed with the flavor IMO. Ultimately it was a bit of a miss for me given the flavor. The service wasn't much to write home about either honestly but the employees weren't rude just not friendly or welcoming either. I'd skip this in favor of one of these other treat shops.
