Ambience. A Service. A Food. A Price. A Found in Main Bellevue area in side street across from mall. Has private parking spaces (time limits)and some street parking. Very clean store and great nostalgic black and white theme for decades. Like that the staff wear uniforms too. Ya'ss. They always give free samples. I always like making my own 1/2 lb size boxes. Easier to pack and carry on plane. And they oblige me by stuffing them with whatever I want. It always ends up being over 1 lb! Heh! I'm a good customer and always take back special handpicked boxes to family and friends back in East coast since they don't have access to Sees store fronts. Donna a reg attendant is always friendly and helpful in making my special boxes. Always- I'm a FaN!!! read more

Update: the store manager reached out and promised changes and more trainings for it's staff. Great that the management cares about the experience from customers Original review: This place is full of racists. I was shocked by the clear difference in treatment based on race at this location. The staff were warm and friendly to the white customers ahead of me--offering free samples and complimentary ribbon wrapping. When it was my turn, their tone shifted completely. They were cold, dismissive, and visibly uninterested in helping me. My questions were met with rudeness, no samples were offered, and I was told I'd have to pay for ribbon wrapping. It felt like I was unwelcome simply because of my skin color. Unacceptable and disheartening in this day and age. read more

See's Candies - Candy Stores Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

They best when it comes to all things candy! The manager here really came thru and was able to track down a lb of the scotch kiss things, my mom wanted them - but they didnt have them, came back the next day and he had em! Went out of his way. Thank you!! read more

I love this place and the employees are always friendly, but uhm whoever is teaching the new girl to put 11 pieces in a 12 piece box...I was too timid to say anything at the moment but I always get the same thing every month for my time of the month, 12 pieces fit Perfectly into it of all of my favorites...but it was her first day and the lady was training her....so I didn't want to correct her about my order. But I didn't get offered a sample today either......so maybe next time I'll just ask them for 2 Samples for my missing piece next month. Lol especially when it's that time of the month. Make those 12 chocolates fit in that box. As I'm writing my review 3 a.m upset about a missing chocolate. Forgive my pms. read more

The assortment of both milk and dark chocolates is superb. A clerk with a tray of samples offers a milk chocolate or dark chocolate sample as soon as you enter. You can select pre-packed boxes of a wide selection or choose to fill your own with personal favorites. Candy is always fresh and delicious! read more

I came here today and the lady who helped me was so incredibly nice!! I want to say a big thank you to her, she was so patient with me, answered all my questions, and didn't rush me -which is so nice these days because everyone is go-go-go! I purchased an assortment of chocolates, including some toffee, dark chocolate sea salt caramels, and some peanut butter confection. Everything was reasonably priced. After coming here for the first time today I definitely want to make the trip here more often especially when I'm in the mood for something sweet. read more

It is a Seattle local brand The taste is ok. Price around 17 The lemon filling is refreshing read more

See's Candies - Candy Stores Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

See's is The Happy Habit for over 100 years! No preservatives, the chocolate is delicious and all Sees candies are made in California with local butter and cream. The chocolates are rich and creamy, not drippy (except for the cherries which are classic), not too thick or dry. I love the contrast of the chocolate cover and the butter-cream rich centers or the authentic butter in the caramels and toffees. If you've seen the I Love Lucy episode where her and Ethel work on the candy line, that was filmed at the See's in Los Angeles! Because they are Quality Without Compromise, and no preservatives, you won't find see's shops east of Texas, although pre-packaged selections pop up temporarily for the holiday season. Online sales are shipped anywhere in the US and the Subscription program saved me when I lived in Maine. Lollipops with real butter are gluten and nut free, and the Little Pop drops can be added to coffee, hot chocolate, etc. to enrich flavor (add a butterscotch little to hot chocolate for a caramelly boost, or chocolate to your coffee for that mocha craving, even hot cinnamon melts in your chocolate for a southern treat or add to teas...) Yes, there is much to get excited about at See's. AND FREE SAMPLE EVERY VISIT! read more

Yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum My favorites, peanut butter crunch, key lime truffles, lemon truffles, toffee, dark chocolate chocolate almonds...shoot! Now I'm drooling! read more

Free samples and tasty treats. What's not to like? My favorite are the almonds clusters read more

Customer service here is always great and they're very generous with samples! It's a bit of a splurge but we always enjoy our treats we get here especially the bridge mix :) read more

I'm a victim of hit and run at this plaza 10212 NE 8th St, Bellevue, WA 98004. It caused me a lot of dramas in emotional and financial. It caused me over $2k to fix my car. The security was helpful but the security cameras are the worst quality cameras I've ever seen. these cameras couldn't record or read a license plat of the person who hit my car in approximate 30 feet distance. I know you guys like the shop at this plaza, remember my word is unsafe place. I like the Starbucks beside everything is no for me. It's bad place to shop. read more

See's Candies - Candy Stores Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

Soooo sweet! As in SOOOOO SWEET! See's Candies is simply good old-fashioned deliciousness. Every guest is welcomed upon entering the shop, and offered a full piece of complimentary candy (not those little tiny 1/8ths of a piece - we are talking a full truffle!). The ladies dress in attire from the 1950s and they are all attentive and nice as can be. They take PRIDE in what they do and what the sell. The candies are delish! I recommend anything in white chocolate (the cashew caramel cluster is TDF!) and the chewy, nutty caramels are out of this world. Stop in, enjoy your complimentary chocolate, buy a few for you, for a party hostess, a teacher, a colleague...you cannot go wrong at See's! read more

Delicious candies, great clean and safe processes, and cheerful, wonderful help! Was so happy when they opened again. They have all our favs back in stock. Yay for Sees! read more

Peanut brittle is good! Staff is very friendly. I wish the pricing was a little bit lower.

Website, social channels says that they are closed. But when you walk up to the entrance there are customers inside, but the doors are locked - you can't get in! Are they still in business? So confusing and the employees literally ignore anyone coming to the door - WTH? Went to another business to purchase my birthday chocolate gifts that I have traditionally bought at Sees candies for the past decade every year. read more

Even though there was a lot of customers in this tiny space due to the holidays being so soon I was helped very efficiently. They were giving out free samples which I loved! And Mia was so so helpful when I was making half pound chocolate boxes. She also did an amazing job wrapping the chocolate boxes with Christmas wrapping paper. read more

I come to this Sees quite often. I do like the fact of the free parking in front. But at times people going to Bellevue square do park here. I do come here quite often. Staff here are very friendly. Awesome chocolate read more

I love visiting and seeing what's new for the season! Of course the sample is always welcome.

Just received our box of 1 lb. of Assorted Chocolates. They arrived stale and dried out. Quality control has gone downhill. Very sad. Grew up with See's. :( read more

Great sweets and hospitable staff. From individual pieces to assorted boxes, they have it all. Always look out for free samples! read more

See's Candies - Candy Stores Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

Their candy from the counter is fresh and tasty. I had a bad experience with buying online. it was stale.

Service is friendly. 4 stars. Some of their chocolate or truffle pieces are good but some are just okay. 3 stars. I just opened my box at home that I verbally picked individually and saw fingerprints on every single pieces! Do workers even wear gloves? They clearly did not as you can see lines from fingerprints. Please see image attached. I think it's pretty disgusting and not very hygienic. And because of that reason I will not be returning. 0 stars. Overall: 2.3 read more

Sees is my favorite chocolate of all time. I am just choosing this branch because it happens to be the one near my home. Part of the reason why it is my favorite is that I connect it with childhood adventures with my grandmother and trips to California from my native NYC, where we had no See's =o(. I have had all kinds of couture chocolate, including regular trips to Jacques Torres which is a few blocks away from my NYC home. As much as I have enjoyed different fancy chocolates, if I had to never eat chocolate again and I had to choose one last chocolate to eat, it would be the dark chocolate bordeaux. I don't even know how to describe the bordeaux, except to say that it made my formerly chocolate-hating fiance a chocolate fiend. Give it a try and let it melt in your mouth. Some of my other favorites are the scotchmallow, the molasses chips, and the chocolate buttercream. They also have a treat for every holiday. Their best is their Easter selection, with beautiful buttercream filled eggs. Great for gifts and kids. They also have great hard candy options, like tasty butterscotch lollipops and sugar sticks in fruity flavors, though I have not seen this last one around lately. Every time you walk in the door, which feels more like a soda shop out of the fifties or something, a sales associate dressed immaculately in white will offer you a free sample, and you can sample any thing else you would like to buy. Taking a trip to See's is like going backwards to a time when everything was fun, sweet, and simple. And when you walk back out into the real world, you've still got a bag full of awesome candy. read more

Living next to See's has never been so dangerous now that we have a NEW OBSESSION! I've gone here like 5 times in the last two weeks and each time is just as delightful as the last. The ladies that work here are sooo sweet and you already know their candy is amazing! I'm mostly here to boast about their amazingly delicious caramel chew that is currently taking over my life.... I've tried just about every other chocolate they carry to see if it can compare (kid you not we have about 4 pounds of sees at home!!) as well as caramels from every other chocolate place and NOTHING COMPARES! Do your mouth the best favor ever and get this chocolate... or don't... because then you'll be coming here on the daily and buying pounds of it like we do! read more

This is probably the smallest See's that I've ever been in. They close earlier than everything around them (they should stay open as late as Pasta & Co). They don't do the corporate discount (which is 20% or 25% off a large selection of boxes). The positive - I found Irish Spuds the day after St Patricks Day plus they were 20% off - so I got one of my favorite annual treats. read more

It is chocolate.. you cannot go wrong. You get free samples.... There are nice ladies and a few guys that work here. It is a bit pricey but you are paying for good chocolate and the nostalgia in my opinion. The parking is different. I come from the south and have always been lucky to get a front spot.... if they didn't have any available, I would have to park across the street. read more

I have been going to the See's Candy Bellevue for several years now. What can I say, the ladies at the counter entice me with their "Would you like to try a candy?". Not that I need much enticing. Needless to say my wallet and waist are proof of my Sees candy devotion. So I visit the store as usual today. The martinet at the counter gives me a grim look and my mind goes "Why the glum face? Are they going out of business?" No free candy offered either. I ask for a half pound box and she gives me, in that order, a dramatic sigh, a hell-just-froze-over look and makes the box. Iam thinking, "Well maybe she is just having a bad day", when a customer walks up behind me and the Ice Queen suddenly melts into the brightest smile and walks right past me to offer the new comer a candy. So we get to the counter and she rings me up with not so much as a thank you or even basic eye contact. And the best of all, her name is (wait for it) Kandy!!!! I walked out feeling bad for a bit, but then realized with all the other great chocolate stores out there, maybe this is Nature's way of telling me to end my See's Candy devotion. I won't be going back there for sure. My wallet and waist, Iam sure will thank me for it. read more

I visited this Bellevue Sees Candies store today and was treated rudely/hostilely and it felt racist. I am a person of color and had just opened the door and was still standing in the doorway entrance, when an older heavyset white woman (dark haired, glasses, scowling angry face) behind the counter yelled rudely at me from across the room that I needed to stand outside. She was loud and yelled from across the room, like I was a criminal walking into the store. There were just 2-3 customers in the store and I was wearing a mask. I kindly stepped outside the store (2 feet from the door)- I never spoke a word. She then proceeded to walk outside and very rudely (again) yelled at me to stand in a particular spot (one foot from where I was standing) and then proceeded to pull a ridiculous "string" in front of the "line." Note there was NO line (other people waiting to go in) - I was the only person standing outside. I'm not sure if the workers at this store have been trained in customer service or in diversity training but apparently thIs woman has not and has a bad attitude and the way she treated me was unacceptable. I've been a Sees Candies customer for past 30 years. Based on the way this store treated me today, it was unacceptable. I do plan on reporting this store to the corporate office. read more

In the summer, stepping inside the cool black and white checked world of See's is as close to heaven as I think I can get while still on my feet. It doesn't matter which branch, or what year it is, I'm immediately transported back to Long Beach, CA and the See's my grandmother would take me to.... they're all the same and have been since I started going in the '70's. The staff are friendly, not just retail friendly, but truely concerned about your experience, treating you with that mix of formality and familiarity like your aunt, grandma or occasionally your likely-to-be gay male cousin at a holiday event. The first thing, other than the cool air and lovely sweet smell is wondering... 'what's the sample today?' sometimes, you can hear them give the other customers an explaination, but sometimes they choose a different item for you, like you're special. This location is just like the others, and for that, I'm always greatful. read more

A good shop for gifts. Nice yummy, well-packaged chocolates that won't break the bank. You can buy pre-packed boxes or make your own box up from the display of truffles and chocolates. They also do some other interesting products like chocolate lollipops and brittles. You're always offered a free sample as you browse but once you taste, you won't be able to resist - you have been warned! read more

Damn! no wonder i keep getting fatter and fatter!! Every time i head down to Seattle (which is pretty much too often) i make it a point to stop by one of the many See's Candy stores to get my sugar high fix! I swear, they must put some kind of crack in their chocolate because i can't stop eating these little sexy nuggets of love!! Some of my favorites are the Scotch mallow (rocky road), chocolate peanut brittle, nuts n chews, milk chocolate... F**K who am i kidding! i love everything about this place! The staff is so nice giving little samples to everyone that come in., always very helpful in answering any question u may have. Always a great experience at See's!!.... crap.. now i'm hungry! surprise surprise :( read more

First off, I love See's chocolates! However, on Christmas Eve I had a very bad experience with the customer service at this See's. I had a coupon for a free reusable bag that expired on Christmas Eve. The problem was I couldn't find it (found it today in my messenger bag) and they wouldn't give me the bag without the coupon. There are several issues here: 1. They lost a $40 sale 2. The offer expired that day and they still had a box full of the bags. 3. I obviously knew about the offer so I must have had the coupon at some point - they would not take my word for it. 4. The bag which sold for $1.75 was probably worth about 25 cents, so why not just create goodwill on Christmas Eve, believe me and give it to me. 5. They were very rude throughout my entire interaction. My conclusion? See's has done a very poor job in customer service training! #sees, #see's read more

Oh my goodness!!!! It was so pleasent to visit this store and purchase stuff! The lady working there named Karen was so helpful and so fun to talk to that i think we all ended up buying more then we thought we were going to get!!!! If you need to get a gift or just need some candy i would recomend making the trip here. read more

After listening to raving reviews from friends I decided to buy some chocolates to gift on a birthday. I guess I was the first customer on a Tuesday morning and the lady at the counter greeted me and she told me she wanted five minutes to be with me. I knew what I wanted so I just went and picked the chocolates on my own and went to the billing counter and she offered me treats to try but I refused. I was in a hurry and had already decided what I wanted to buy thanks to their webstore. I had a great experience and they have some amazing collection of chocolates. The chocolate I bought were delicious and I look forward to visiting them again! read more

What can I say, everyone in my family is addicted to Sees candy. I prefer the dark chocolate with nuts but it's actually all good. I should know...I've tried it all read more

It's your average See's Candies boutique, with your "free sample with foot in the door." Very large selection of chocolates, and my favorite are the truffles and the toffee-ettes. The latter is really just like almond roca, but oh-so-good. A box of mix'n'match is $16/lb. I believe this is pretty standard pricing for most chocolate/candy shops. Anything with nuts will probably be good (get the pecans/almonds/walnuts!!) I would avoid getting the fruity or yogurty stuff because c'mon, who really wants tang with their chocolate? read more

I walk by this place almost every day (I'm a creature of habit; pasta&co-starbucks-qfc runs are a given in my schedule). Never felt the need to go in. Then I got a 5lb box of Sees in a White Elephant. Then I became a glutton. Then (after a brief coma) I had to come here and pass the love on to friends. The staff were great in assisting me with my choices and the samples were free-flowing. The chocolate is nice, not the best in memory, but tasty. Now I have an addition to my errands, if even only now and then (a bro's gotta watch his figure after all) read more

I love chocolate, yet not all of it. I am a rather picky chocolate eater and the ability to make my own selection is what attracts me to Sees candies (apart from the excellent-tasting chocolate!). Here's what I like about Sees: - nice staff, willing and able to assist with all of my needs (starting from a hand-picked candy selection and down to gift wrapping and shipping if needed) - beautiful, tasty chocolate that is always fresh - affordable prices (I really like the fact that they do not nickel and dime you for wrapping paper) - getting a sample while your order is being assembled (I mean, really, how can you not get a sample??? You crave one the moment you walk in!) Things I don't like? Barely any! Sometimes there's a bit of a wait involved, but most times it is as close to perfect as it gets. read more

See's candy is banned in my house except for on special occasion because every time buy a box, I eat a whole pound of candy in one day. I just cant stop thinking about it once I get it in my hands. It is so chocolaty, so good. Indescribable. The chocolates are fresh and they have so many different choices. Milk chocolate, dark chocolate, nougat, nuts, raisins, and more. The best part is that you can make your own variety box. You can buy single pieces or you can make your purchase by the pound. And of course there's the free sample that you receive. If you dont like what they're offering you can choose whatever you want. read more
