In a shopping area (The Waterfront) filled with the same crap corporate stores they have in every city, this place is unique. Primarily a candy store filled with the nostalgia candies you've seen in other tourist traps, they also have novelty items, unusual flavored soda pops, and treats from other countries. It's a bit pricey, and you'd expect that. It's almost like you're paying a premium for them to curate this expansive collection under one roof. It's worth checking out read more

Cute little candy store that has a ton of options. They have everything from old fashion candy to new candy. They have a wide variety of treats read more

More soda but less candy than Grandpa Joe's, and mostly taffy. Also gag gifts. We don't drink soda that much, but we wanted some Japanese ramune, and we picked out a couple of glass bottles of novelty pops (peanut butter and strawberries and cream) to share over a meal. We'll probably stop by if we're in the area just to see what they have in stock. read more

Rocket Fizz - Specialty sodas - Candy Stores Near Me - West Homestead, Pennsylvania

This was my first time visiting the store. They drew us in with the bubbles that were blowing outside on the sidewalk. The store is super cute and has a lot of neat signs, gifts, and candy. My boys loved it. I enjoyed it as well because they had a lot of things I have not seen in a while. We filled a bag of their candies and it was fun for them to choose what they wanted. I would like to come back and look more closely at all they have to offer. read more

Cool candy shop with incredibly reasonable prices (go here before you go to the movies!) and an immense amount of choices. Good luck narrowing it down to just a few! They've got it all and the drinks looked pretty cool and unique too! read more

Rocket Fizz - a variety of candy in a store - Candy Stores Near Me - West Homestead, Pennsylvania

Pretty cool store filled with candy, snacks, sodas, and gag gifts. There were some interesting finds with foreign candy and snacks. The place was packed with shoppers galore. Enjoyed just looking around but some of these things were just too over priced for my pocketbook. read more

I got two large bags of saltwater taffy for $9.99 each, and they have the widest assortment of candy flavors I've seen. The worker was nice too. This is a really cool candy and soda shop and I would definitely recommend it! read more

Here I go again reviewing a place I've been to a gazillion times. I like the selection of candy, toys and decorative items. The best part is the insane collection of soda with flavors ranging from the obscure to the absurd. read more

This is a very cool store and I enjoy shopping here for gifts. Lots of unique candy, signs, posters, and toys. However, the woman who (I believe) owns this place is the reason for two less stars. I understand that shoplifting is a problem, but this woman has followed my brother and I around this store multiple times, making us so uncomfortable we left. Watch us from afar, don't literally look us up and down and follow us. read more

I used to love this place. My sister, her boyfriend and I were in the store. The owner (I assume) approached us and awkwardly stared us down looking all over us as if we stole something, which we didn't. Even if we did steal, it's 25¢ candy. If she's that worried about people stealing hire security. Owner needs to GROW UP!!!! read more

This is a unique store with lots of throwback candies and specialty items to include a huge selection of flavored soda. I can't tell you the last time I saw Chuckles or Astro Pop, the feeling of nostalgia is huge in this store! This place has items for sale that will make you laugh out loud too. They have plenty of gag gifts like the 10 piece relighting candles for under $2. You will find a corner dedicated to Big Foot for all the fans out there. If you can't find a candy ask the person at the counter and they may be able to order it in bulk for you. You can't go wrong stopping in here. I bet you won't leave empty handed. The prices are reasonable and the store was clean and fully stocked. I added multiple pictures of my experience in this store, enjoy. read more

Lady was VERY rude to a little bit in the store. He had to put candy back because he didn't have enough money so she told him to leave and NEVER come back! I can't help but wonder if it was because he was a black child read more

This Rocket Fizz location is just so-so in my opinion. I went in on a steady Sunday afternoon and wasn't greeted or helped at all. They had three employees on the floor, two of which were chatting with each other and one behind the register. Another guy, who might have been the owner or manager was there too. Not one person helped me out. They do have a good variety of novelties, candy, treats and pop but its disorganized compared to other locations I've been too. The only reason I might stop back is if I'm craving a unique pop flavor. read more

So glad that I was able to find this franchise in my hometown! So much candy, pop, toys, and retro nostalgia packed in one shop. I will definitely return here especially when I'm working on gift baskets and furnishing my house. Tons of tin signs adorn the walls. And the employees genuinely care about your satisfaction. I can't wait to go back! read more

Rocket Fizz - All the sodas! - Candy Stores Near Me - West Homestead, Pennsylvania

Didn't even get to shop there today. I shop there often and today I was asked if I was older than 17. I said I'm 17 but didn't have any ID. I was with my 20 year old sister who had an ID but I was still told "if you're younger than 17 you need to be with an adult" which is understandable but I stated multiple times I'm 17 not to mention I was also with my 20 year old ADULT sister. I've shopped here multiple times so this was super frustrating and I just ended up leaving read more

Honestly, this place doesn't even deserve 1 star. The lady was beyond rude to my friends and I. Myself (20), my one friend (21), and my other friend (15) were simply kicked out because the 15 year old did not have a parent. The lady handled it very childishly. I understand there may be reasons why kids should have parents but if he was with two adults, I don't see the problem. I will never step foot in this place ever again, and neither should you. read more

Super cool throw back candy store. The girl at the fudge shop recommended it to us. The employees were very helpful. We wanted to try a cool soda but weren't sure what we'd like. They recommended awesome things. My bf ordered a root beer and I got a ginger ale. We also bought some sour candy. There were cool tin signs for sale. Super cute store. read more

Nice selection of candy and soda Decent toys too

This is a very cool candy and soda store. They have a lot of unique items. You could look for hours and not see everything. They have every flavor of soda you could think of as well as some you would never think of. There are some quirky toys that are pretty funny. It's a whole lot of fun to shop. read more

On Saturday night, I took my daughter and 6 college roommates to Burgatory for dinner and then to Rocket Fizz after. It was a large group of young adults (18 to 22) and yes they were a bit loud. When I walked in after my group, I saw the manager literally stalking the group as they walked through the store. At one point, all 3 employees were glaring at my group as if they were going to steal something. Several of the group had things to buy in their hands. The woman employee yelled at one of my daughter's friends to "Quiet down! This isn't a playground!" This is a store with a giant bubble machine outside. It should be FUN! All of us put our things back where they were and left without buying anything. I will never set foot in this store again! read more

I've been here before and it was a delicious experience. And it was because two girls from YouTube sent me. We got some wild sodas, but we didn't get candy,gag gifts, a bottle opener, or anything else. With a wide variety of different sodas,candy,and gag gifts,you can turn yourself into a total weirdo but it is fun. Soda - From Lester's to Gross Gus's, soda can either be completely crazy or plainly ridiculous. They also have their own factory made sodas. Candy - By the pound,in a box, or in just large packaging, the candy would be great to have. They even have Jelly Belly Bean Boozled Jelly Beans in a box as large as a board game! Gag Gifts - From fake vomit to joy buzzers, gag gifts at Rocket Fizz are immature, but hilarious. There you have it. What I love about Rocket Fizz. read more

I walked in here because I was taking my Burgatory burger to go and wanted to get a soda to go with it. The store has a really impressive candy and pop selection. There is an ample amount of "adult" candy...high quality chocolate bars and such. I liked the little section in the back that had a bunch of bacon flavored stuff and as a bit of a ginger ale enthusiast they had many varieties made with real ginger. There is also a cold case if you want to drink your soda right after purchase. I ended up with a peach flavored NY Seltzer Company soda for two dollars and some change. Note they have a $5.00 minimum purchase to use a card. Anyway, nice little shop...I'll be back. read more

Nice store. Variety of soda & candy. Was unsure if I'd like the pickle candy canes so an employee helpfully suggested I try the pickle soda instead. It tasted great! Also got some blue cotton candy. I'd like to go back & try some more soda flavors! read more

My friend and I entered the store to brows while waiting for a lyft. While we browsed I was followed around the store by an associate without any engagement whatsoever. My friend however was left to browse freely without any observation or surveillance, in fact the associate near him didn't even look in his direction. No one asked us if we needed anything. I assume the not-friendly looking man is the owner or manager who also didn't even greet me when I approached the register to look at the wares there. I'm an African American male and my friend is a white male. I was very uncomfortable the whole time and could not at all enjoy the store for being followed the whole time. In these sensitive times, this kind of "security" should be replaced by cameras or the associates should have better discretion in how they track patrons. You lost two customers Rocket Fizz, whether or not this was racially motivated as it seems, this type of surveillance would make anyone uncomfortable. Terrible customer experience. read more

Great place for fun treats! They sell Fitz's soda from Saint Louis, so it's the only place in town I can get a taste of home. The people are very friendly and knowledgeable about the more unique candies there. I highly recommend Rocket Fizz! read more

Interesting store with a vast selection of candy and soda. While the candy purchased for Halloween and Easter is typically enough for the year and soda selections just as vast are often seen a nearby supermarkets, this store has amenities that can be appreciated year round. Consider for example gifts for children in hospitals or otherwise in need (TY RK). read more

This is a great niche store. A lot of nostalgic candy, candy from various countries and all of yours and your children's favorites! Lots of tins, lunch boxes, Ty beanie babies, gifts, toys, etc plus a huge assortment of sodas. The wall of candy by the bag is reasonably priced (FYI there is every favorite of salt water taffy imaginable). The staff is super friendly and very helpful. All around a great, super fun store. Love it!!!! read more

Rocket fizz turned out to be one of the worst experiences of my life. Just thought we'd take a quick peek inside while waiting on our dinner reservations but didn't realize I'd be greeted with such ill mannered employees and poor service. Seemed like a cute family owned shop and wanted to support it but were greeted with pretty steep and unreasonable prices for many things we could easily find on amazon. Very crowded which wasn't that much of an issue but waited in a very long checkout line just to have unkind and rude words spoken to me by the cashier women. Definitely would not recommend to anyone just looking for a fun pastime or fun shopping experience. Unfortunately the lowest rating is a single star but I'd rate it with zero if I could. read more

Left a review for the one in Robinson and this review can be reflected in that review. LOVE this place. So many crazy soda flavors and tons of weird candy. This place is a must go. read more

From the moment I walked in this store they had their eyes on me like a hawk. I stayed in there for all of 5 minutes and the lady in the store was following me and my friends around like I was stealing something. Not family friendly or kid friendly at all. We didn't steal anything and we ended up buying something. They were still not kind! read more

Such a neat place...Could have spent an hour checking out all of the cool items this shop has to offer.. Our favorite finds for today were the Pimple Pop soda and box of booger gummies.. read more
