Ice Cream
Laura U.

It's such a cute little ice cream parlor full of all the sweet goodies you want. The sweet, sugary smells of ice cream, fudge, and candy hit you while you are still outside, tempting you! Once you're inside, the decision on what to have is difficult! A variety of different fudges for the chocolate lovers--a variety of ice cream flavors for the ice cream lover. You can't leave here disappointed! The staff was amazingly friendly and helpful. They were chatty and welcoming and offered samples and suggestions. There were so many flavors of ice cream and all the taffy flavors you could ask for. The good news is there is a sugar-free option for those who are looking for it. The taffy was so good and possibly some of the best we've ever had! My daughter had a blast in the parlor and just had a ball looking around. The only negative we had was the no of flavored popcorn we bought. It was not fresh and seemed to have been made two days or the day before. It was stale, and we dumped it in the trash immediately. It was a bummer because that's what I wanted. If you're in the area, try them out!

Cute candy shop in Cannon Beach that seems a little too big for its britches. Specifically, the space this particular location occupies (apparently this is a chain with several locations up and down the Oregon coast) seemed a little empty, and its decor a bit bland and uninspired, but they hit all the right notes when it comes to their selection of sweet treats. From homemade ice cream served in cones crafted on site, to the wall of Jelly Belly dispensers, 94 types of salt water taffy (obligatory for *any* coastal town worth its salt. Get it?! Salt!), truffles, fudge, most grocery store standards, retro candies of yesteryear, and a heaping hulk of bulk classics (gummy, chewy, chocolatey, etc), its hard not to find something you like here. Yes, even black licorice (gag!).

Super stale gum balls :(

Loved the look and smell coming from the store. The two employees were very nice and helpful. Great selection of candy, fudge, caramel apples and ice cream. I bought a small bag of gum balls from a self serve bin. The fireball gum balls were so stale that I couldn't bite threw them. My husband got through one and it just crumbled apart. Really gross, and I ended up paying $8.00 for something we couldn't eat. I wish they would make sure their products were fresh. The ice cream was good but again very expensive for what you get.

Taffy!

While not as well known as Bruce's at the other end of Cannon Beach, I much prefer Schwietert's for several reasons. - The store is large with ample space to walk around, especially at the taffy bar and gummy bar. - They have 96 flavors of taffy, many very unique - chili mango, yes please! - Their caramel apples coated with peanuts are the best! The crisp, tart Granny Smith apples the perfect balance to the sweet handcrafted caramel and salty peanuts. And big enough to share! - fresh popcorn ad cotton candy available - Ice cream is not my first choice for a sweet - I know, I'm an outlier! But I will happily get their salted caramel and mocha almond fudge any day of the week! - Prices are reasonable for a specialty candy store in a tourist town. They have fudge, which I'm not a fan of, and a counter with individual chocolates by the pound. Wish they had a larger selection of dark chocolate. Now that I'm older, I no longer eat milk chocolate which is just too sweet for me. Towards the back there is a small gift rack of novelty items like boxes of emergency underwear and Bigfoot soap. Fun stocking stuffers! During Covid they are limiting customers, everyone wearing masks, hand sanitizer provided. I'm surprised that people can stick their hands in the taffy bowls; I used one of the bags as a glove to make my selection, which I think should be a requirement.

This place was ok. We were told to come because they have the best taffy. The taffy was good but it was so picked over not much was left. Several buckets were empty leaving little choices. We still filled up our bags with the few choices they had. The kiddos got an ice cream cone.... huge scoops. They really needed more people in the back helping. One of the registers was not working so it leaded to a challenge with lines for a

Candy...so much candy!
Monika B.

We have come each time we've come to cannon beach. (3 times in the last four years lol!) my little ones looooove the selection of candy, taffy and ice cream. The taffy flavors were so fun and unique! We bought and tried maple bacon, pickle, blueberry muffin just to name a few. They also got some gummy star fish they enjoyed and! Razzles! How fun, talk about a nostalgic memory.

Happy kid

Wow wow wow... they had a smaller one in manzanita, then we saw this and it was huuuge. Mayne the biggest candy store i have been in yet. The prices were very good for ice cream, gummies, and boxed. The chocolate and the truffles were just a bit more than normal at over 20/lb. We went big on the gummy wall 8/lb and the carmel corn was kick ass. They had some fun stuff here, big candy... lots. Odd gummies like chicken feed... check. Cool creations that were new to me like cinnamon gummy bears in chocolate, orange cream gummies, and starfish... ohhh yeahh. They jad japanese candy galore, they had funny gifts lile gums and mints. The waffle cones were so dang fresh you could smell it out the door!! Come in, get crazy, leave happy, regret it later, then hit the gym.

Marionberry Ice cream
Lisa Marie D.

I'm not too into sweets so when I do crave ice cream I definitely am slightly picky about it. I usually go for a chocolatey flavor, never usually berry- how very I wanted to try marionberry out because I heard it was pretty popular. This place was just not my personal favorite. The ice cream was too sweet, not creamy(kind of grainy) and tasted super artificial. The inside of the store on the other hand was pretty cool and had a really cute candy store vibe to it.

Assortment of truffles
Valerie T.

Candy, Ice Cream, Fudge, Taffy, Chocolates, Caramel Corn and more... it's a sweet tooth's dream. When in Astoria you must visit Schwietert's as it is said to be the largest candy and ice cream chain on the Oregon Coast. They have old fashion sodas to reminisce of the past and a large assortment of handmade treats. The staff was as sweet as the truffles. Ok I try to keep an open mind even though I don't really have a sweet tooth. With that said after talking to sales representative I ordered a few of all his favorites. The boysenberry truffle wasn't just any chocolate it was rich in boysenberry balanced with an elegant truffle. Cowabunga was it burst of of heaven. Yes... the old fashion sodas got me recollecting Ninja turtles terms. The sea salt dark chocolate and Carmel truffle was great. How can you go wrong with a salty sweet merriness. Although, I didn't try everything, however what I did have was perfection. If that wasn't enough I would come again just because of the friendliness and knowledge staff. Thanks for filling my sweet tooth enough for the year!

There are certain places in Seaside that are not optional. The beach. The arcade noise. The smell…read moreof saltwater in the air. And for me, walking straight into Phillips Candies like a man fulfilling a sacred coastal tradition. This place has been around since 1897 and is actually the oldest continually operating business in Seaside, which honestly makes perfect sense the second you walk through the doors. First off, I absolutely love that they carry sugar free chocolates that actually taste good. That alone deserves applause. Then you add in the giant selection of candy, the homemade treats, the popcorn, the chocolate, the old school charm, and suddenly you realize you've been wandering around the store for forty five minutes carrying six pounds of snacks you absolutely did not plan on buying. I am a complete sucker for the white cheddar popcorn and the cheese popcorn. Throw in some Laffy Taffy and now we're talking about a full blown Seaside survival kit. Every single trip to the coast, I stop here and "accidentally" leave with enough candy to supply a small movie theater. The store itself is beautiful too. Bright, nostalgic, cozy, and full of that classic beach town energy that makes you happy just being there. It sits right near all the fun downtown, close to the arcade action and the heart of Seaside, so stopping in feels like part of the experience. The customer service is always fantastic, warm, welcoming, and patient with people like me who spend fifteen minutes debating popcorn flavors like it's a life decision. And somehow, even with the quality, it still feels like you get a good deal. Chocolates, candies, caramel corn, saltwater taffy, coffee drinks, sweet treats everywhere you look. No trip to the Oregon Coast feels complete without walking out of this place carrying a bag that's way heavier than you intended. Five stars all day long.

Really cute store, way bigger than I expected and full of every type of candy and treat imaginable…read more Wednesdays are pretty empty and shops are closed, so this was one of the only places still open to find a treat. A little overpriced candy you can often find at Walmart, but they also had some unique candies and a taffy bar to fill up a bag. Chocolate dipped everything at the chocolate counter and they offer ice cream too. Friendly employees and would visit again!

It was a busy place, and keeps later hours than the salt water taffy place down the block, lucky for me. It's a fairly large store with all kinds of sweets and ice cream. I got a bag of taffy for my mom and then also one as a gift, just an assortment I picked out. From the large selection (I think at least 50 flavors). I also got some fudge (my mom's got a sweet tooth!) for our group of nine visiting to share. They had divinity, an old-fashioned confection of which my mother is quite fond so I picked up some of that, as well as some dark chocolate sea salt and some rocky road. They give free samples and I got a taste of the dark chocolate sea salt--heavenly. I only interacted with one staff member but she was helpful. The parking is street only.

The nostalgia of so many different varieties of candy from our childhood brings a smile to our face. We're literally running around the store saying "oh my gosh look at this" or "did you see this?" It's always a fun experience. They have homemade fudge , a variety of chocolates and different twinkies. Family favorite are the great candy apples made in house. They also serve up icecream with housemade waffle cones. Your sweet tooth will definitely be satisfied!
