Stopped in to this super cute nostalgic candy store after dinner in Marietta square. They were very friendly and welcoming when we arrived. There was so much candy and too many options to choose from. If you are looking for a fun and tasty outing stop by and grab some of your favorites and try something new! I promise you they have something for everyone! read more

I can think of hundreds of reasons to shop at the Rocket Fizz Soda Pop and Candy Store on the Square in Marietta, Georgia. First and foremost, I love candy! We happened to visit during Chalkfest in October. Parking on the Square was not possible due to the event, but there are plenty of nearby parking garages. Once you enter the store, you are transported to your childhood, only better because growing up near a 7-11 convenience store was great, but they only had one main aisle of candy. This store utilizes every square foot to delicous treats such as salt water taffy, penny candy, candy bars, gum, novelties, lollipops, and gummies of all types. I know I am missing many categories of treats, but they're all here! Even the oldest in our group managed to find their childhood candies and I was surprised they bought them! There is ample space for kids and adults to browse the walls and display areas. Rocket Fizz also features novelty and traditional sodas. Making a gift basket or getting candy to fill a Christmas stocking couldn't be easier because the selection is vast! The walls are decorated with nostalgic signage and I think as impressive as the selection is, the neatness and orderliness of the shelves and displays is noteworthy. The staff or owners clearly take time to make this store easy to shop and look good! I recommend this store to everyone and will return! read more

What a fun and amazing candy and soda shop!! When I first walked in, I instantly felt like a kid in the candy store. Memories of my youth flashed before my eyes as I saw so much candy and soda inside the shop. There were literally so much candy that I felt overwhelmed (in the best way possible). There were other merchandise such as cute plushies, posters, toys, hats, etc. Customer service as very friendly and the girls up front were so sweet! The shop was super clean too. There are imported candies as well. We saw candy from Japan and Korea such as kitkats, oreos, gummies, and also even hats and toys! For example, we saw some cherry blossom Oreos from Japan and also Pokemon merchandise! Also saw some ice cream cone gummies from Korea. When you walk around the store, there are literally rows and rows of candy and I did find a few kinds that I've never seen before. I grabbed the following candies: Lemonade Puchao (similar to hi-chews): a Japanese candy with a "chewing gum" consistency but it's not gum and you can swallow it. The flavor of lemonade was spot on and I enjoy the little sugar crystals while I was chewing the it. It was quite delightful. I give this 7/10. Rips Grape flavor sour strips: I have never seen the grape flavor and decided to grab a bag! It was everything that I imagined it would be. Sour, tart, and distinctive grape flavor. I almost finished the whole bag! It didn't taste as artificial and reminded me of the Welch's gummies but just sour. I give this a 8.5/10 Jello sour gummies: I was so excited to try these and boy were these sour! Not super sour but enough to taste the sourness. While I enjoyed these gummies as they had a nice, jello-like texture, there was literally only one or two gummies of the blue raspberry and green apple flavors and the rest in the bag were all cherry flavored. I give this a 6.8/10. They have so many different kids of sodas and I really want to go back to try some of them! Some of the sodas have unique flavors like "Rainbow Fizz." Overall, I would come back but I wouldn't go out of my way because it's a bit pricey for the candies, but it's a pretty cool soda and candy shop to experience! read more

Our neighbor asked if we had been to this famous candy store and we had no idea it existed. So the next time we went into Marietta square we went. We were in candy heaven! Everything you could imagine and more. We got some Dutch dropchas for my husband. We even got some pop rocks reminiscent from our childhood. Fun place!!!! It is a child's delight (even grown up children). read more

Super cool candy store. All different types of candy and drinks, they have nostalgic candy and the latest candy as well. Highly recommend stopping by if you are in the area read more

I was expecting to see candies that you haven't seen in years or at least the rare ones. But to pay $5 for candy that's cost $1, at everywhere store is ridiculous. You're not even paying for the experience, you walk in see candy and other items, you buy and leave, as you would any other store. I get the concept, but the prices are too high. Why would I bypass Dollar tree to get peach rings for $1, just to go to rocket fizz and pay $5. Make it make sense read more

Rocket Fizz is an awesome little store. Over the years it has maintained its cleanliness and friendly staff. Even during COVID the store was doing an excellent job in keeping the customers 6 feet apart and everything look spotless. I did tell the kiddos not to touch what every single piece of candy they found interesting but to just point to what they wanted.. just in case. We drive all the way to Marietta just to get Moxie from Rocket Fizz for the hubs. They have a large selection of soft drinks, almost every variety of chocolate and candy. They did not have "Blueberry Faygo". Bummer. Prices are reasonable and parking is plenty in the area. If you are in Marietta Square check them out. read more

It's very easy to stay in here for a while reading all of the names of the HUNDREDS of different sodas they have, if you look at my picture you'll be very entertained! They had mustard & pickle flavored soda and all kinds of nasty but intriguing flavors. They also had almost every candy imaginable & these posters you could purchase all at very reasonable prices. read more

This place reminds me of Dylan's Candy Bar in NYC on 3rd street....its definitely an entertain and fun place to take your time to browse....we came after we stuffed our faces at the Australian bakery a few doors down and as if packing 1200 calories for lunch wasn't enough...lets add another 1000 calories worth of sugar enough to send a baby horse into a coma! They have a little of everything...from Boston baked beans to Charleston chew to Mary Janes...They also have funny retro signs that make great gifts. As far as prices are concern they probably are a bit higher than say your local grocery store but it's a boutique place so you have to take that into consideration. Otherwise it's worth going at least once... read more

I believe this is part of a chain; we visited another location nearer to us a couple of years ago. Still, this was well worth a quick browse on a hot day. They have a surprisingly large selection of obscure candies, mostly from the U.S. If there is something from a different region or from your semi-distant childhood that you want to reconnect with, this is the spot for you! We had fun just walking along the perimeter shelf and looking at all teh different selections. If you are anywhere near the Marietta square, this is worth a look. read more

I love candy...I love sweets of all kinds. I have a nostalgic heart and soul and love finding little tokens to bring me back to my childhood. This place has it but they are pricey. The markup on standard candies you can get other places was by $2-$3. If you're craving a Ranch flavored soda or want to peruse the penny candy (although not a penny anymore!) or you're searching for a gummy rodent, this is your spot, just be prepared to pay a little extra. read more

Rocket Fizz - Toxic waste, warheads, lemon-heads, dumdum, etc - Candy Stores Near Me - Marietta, Georgia

Definitely a place worth checking out. There are so many different varieties of sodas! We tried the grass soda, it was like sugared grass. We also tried the Doomsday Lemonade, which was a slight gray and tasted like ashes. Quite entertaining. There's so many different candies too, I feel everyone will find something here. read more

This candy store is amazing and it's not only for kids but for adults as well. Any piece of candy you can think of they have it. The place is located right in the heart of the Marietta Square, and it is always packed. The only downfall for me is the pricing on each candy, they can be very pricey. So if you have a sweet tooth and plan on buying anything, definitely be prepared to spend quite a few dollars read more

Wanna be taken back to your childhood? Yeah... me too! All you have to do is enter in to this magical world of candy and soda!! The colors that surround you will bring you back to days of your youth!

Didn't realize the vibe in this store was to yell at customers. Brought our daughter here and a woman with red hair snapped at her to stop jumping inside the store. Needless to say we had to comfort our youngest after being yelled out in public. Terrible! read more

My kids really enjoyed selecting all the different kinds of candy. My son bought the toxic rich energy drink with morty. I personally enjoyed all the different types of taffy. This is a cool place to go to once in awhile...like about once a year. I'm not really a sweets person so maybe that's why but my children did enjoy themselves. The place was clean and neat and the staff was nice. Cool place. I'll visit again next year read more

While visiting Atlanta I found this cute little town square with dozens of candy, bakeries, restaurants, ice cream parlors all in this one square block with a park right in the center. Rocket fizz is a candy/novelty toy shop that's just fun to look around and reminisce about child hood. One of their signature things is a Rocket Fizz branded taffy bar. These are some of the weirdest flavors I've ever seen including chicken & waffles, French toast, snores, Neapolitan, key lime pie and fruit punch (which was my personal fav). You can't buy it by the piece but fill a bag which has 2 sizes. If I lived near by I'd be popping in a lot but fortunately there a few states between me and Rocket Fizz. read more

2 trips in 4 days....hmmm. Gotta love school breaks! You can't go wrong with a shop full of every candy imaginable! Perfect location for foot traffic in Marietta Square. In the mood for banana taffy! Picky lil' girl not so picky in this store and in the mood for everything! read more

If less than one star was an option that is what I'd give. My children were verbally assaulted by the cashier today for their mode of dress and hair styles. I'm astonished that a corporation who sells nostalgic candies and craft sodas would have such aggressive and demeaning staff. It is disheartening to have this kind of experience. read more

"This here is Orange Crush, son. It don't get better till you're legal." Allan Dare Pearce, Paris in April In a recent interview, Anthony Bordain said "I don't generally eat sweets or drink soda." He would not like it here. Rocket Fizz is a fun store carrying what must be hundreds of sodas and an enormous retro candy selection. The drinks are presented in coolers as well as stacked throughout the store. There are some classics as well as some of the newer craft sodas. The candy inventory covers the 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's classics as well as some international products. Prices are a bit higher then other specialty stores, but having such a great selection ,as well as its location in the square gets them a pass. Rocket Fizz is organized and impressive, but both the store itself and the employees could be a bit more fun. After all, who wouldn't want to work in a sweets and soda store? Oh that's right, Anthony Bordain! read more

Pretty cool place. There are flavors of soda that I could never have imagined, and plenty of treats that take you back to your childhood memories. read more

A fun little shop in Marietta Square! If you have a sweet tooth -- this is your dream come true. Candy bars, taffy, novelty candy. They have interesting soda pops in individual glass bottles. If you can think of a flavor, they've probably got a soda for it! I saw bacon, sweet corn, mustard sodas today while visiting! I was also super happy to see they have Green River soda here! As a Chicago native I highly recommend that locals give this a try! It's a favorite POP in the Chicago community that's only available in March for St Patrick's Day! You guys are lucky to have it year 'round. I had a great time here! read more

At first glance, this is a fun candy store, filled with nostalgia from your childhood. From candy to puzzles to accessories from the 60s to present, you'll find it here. I was specifically looking for imported candy and came across these peach cream candies for $5. Though they were a bit too pricey for such a small bag, like 6oz, I got them anyways. I was traveling back home the next day so I didn't get a chance to try them, just threw them in my bag. Fast forward to yesterday, mere days after I visited the store, I tried the candy. Flavor was peachy enough but found it was rather sticky for hard candy. Started looking at the package and saw the candy was expired. Was definitely disappointed because of that, in addition to the price I paid. When was the last time this store checked their? Do you check it at all? I definitely think if your going to sell imported goods, random inspections for expiring foods should be done often. read more

This is one of my boyfriend's favorite place to get special sodas. He's a cola and cream soda enthusiast so their soda selection is a dream come true for him. The place is pretty big and gives off a nostalgic vibe with their decor and throwback candies. The display technique could be better since they have similar variety of candy spread throughout the place. It would be better if there were signs for certain categories to make navigating a little less hectic. read more

Pretty cool candy store that has an array of different sodas and candies for everyone, no matter the age! There are so many different candies here a lot of them from different decade but also a lot of unique candy that I could find anywhere else. The staff was very kind and I liked that they were able to give me there personal opinion about what they liked as well. After making a lap around the store mesmerized by the candy I almost didn't notice the sodas until I got to the cooler where there were so many different and unique flavors. I enjoyed a few of their sarsaparillas and cream sodas and will definitely be back in the future. read more
