Place has been here forever and it looks just like any other See's Candies you'll go to. This one is small, but it has all the same things you'd find in a bigger store. Parking outside is easy. Sometimes they give out extra samples. Convenience place to pick up chocolate gifts in a pinch. read more

I didn't get her name but a very nice lady helped me and really went above and beyond with wrapping and giving samples. I believe she had salt and pepper hair. Really pleasant experience. read more

This store is a little gem and the ladies that work here are a testament to great customer service . came in prior to Father's Day weekend. One sweet lady temporarily , running the counter and holding down the show , greeted everyone as they entered and juggle us all with TLC as we waited for our turn . One other coworker was encouraged to take her whole lunch . ! Everyone was patient and appreciative for the good energy and service. Thank you again. She's candies use filled our mouths and hearts with smiles. Keep up the great work. read more

Love See's Candies. The blueberry truffles are my special treat to myself with the lemon truffles a close second. This location is a little smaller than some other locations but they have all my favorites. And the guy helping us offered us a free sample of anything we wanted, so I decided to try their pumpkin truffle - delicious, like eating a mini pumpkin pie. read more

Great variety and selection - this location is close to the HQ or main manufacturing plant - so its no surprise. Candies seemed unusually fresh and they had great selection compared to other stores across they bay. Apricot and a few other varieties were not available due to covid and some sort of constraint. Was good to see them available once again. Free samples came in a plastic bag - everybody all of a sudden is a germ freak. Parking lot was huge as this is in the strip mall. Was aiming to go to the main bigger place down the road that has the same street name as part of the address. Not sure if that is open at all during these times but am eager to one day visit. read more

I'm a fan of See's Candies. So whenever I'm in this area, I try to stop by one for some goodies. My favorites are the Scotch Kiss, Peanut Brittle, and Pecan Buds. Mmm... The staff here are friendly and efficient. They do have the safety protocols implemented which is good. I love how they give some extra goodies with every purchase so that customers can try other things. Kudos! I can't wait to visit a See's Candies again soon whenever I go out again. :) read more

*Review of service by a specific curly haired/pink masked wearing server/attendant*. NOT a review of the place nor the quality of the product nor the other servers/attendants at this place! I received a So-So service at this location. This specific attendant does not seem to be enjoying her work. First off, she was not friendly and accommodating at all and given that it is Valentine's Day shopping, you would think she would be a little friendly and into the spirit, NO, grumpy and even missed me completely when I was even next in Line. And even mentioned that the heart boxes were an extra charge, I don't care, if it is for my mom and my husband, it is worth any price. You should be more customer focused and friendly since you are selling chocolates!!! The other attendants were happily offering their customers a taste of their chocolate of choice but this specific server pointed me to the attendant that was offering brittle and Bordeaux only. Other places would offer your chocolate of choice for a sample. Horrible!!!! read more

I went to buy chocolates for my friends and there was no line and the service was great. They bagged my candy individually like I asked and I was served with a smile with the chocolate of my choice as a treat in the end. read more

Cashier 052200000033, please be courteous to the customers. If you're having a bad day, you should not take it out on the customers. I did not have a sweet shopping experience at the adorable see's shop. read more

Scottish kisses.. Almond Royal.. Butterscotch pops.. Vanilla pops.. Chocolate pops.. Nuts & Chews.. Molasses chips.. Nostalgic, Comforting, and everlasting!! This location is small and cozy & the employees are very friendly. See's 4ever! read more

The woman working behind the counter was really friendly, while I was trying to figure out which box of chocolate to get my wife. As I looked over the candy, she offered me a piece. How could I say no to that? She was really nice and helpful. I finally picked my box for my wife and a little walnut Carmel candy bar for myself. She also gave me a small sample of a new candy they are now selling. I think it had some kind of coffee in it but the wrappers are long gone and there is no evidence of it around. I must have liked it!!! This location is nice and has plenty of parking. I was able to get in and out quickly plus a few free samples make everything much better. On my next trip I can get a box of just the candies my wife likes. Apparently she likes the marshmallow covered in chocolate. Of course, she ate it without showing me a visual. I am not worried because I know when I come here they will hook me up with the right one. read more

What better way to break up the monotony of a cold workday than a quick drive over to my local See's Candies shop! Aside from the fact that you can literally smell chocolate the minute you step out of your car in this shopping plaza, you can find yourself in sensation overload the minute you open the door here. I'm not sure if this is only for the holiday season (cuz I've never been approached at any other See's location), but within minutes from entering the store, I was approached by a lovely lady donned in the traditional white dress - "Would you like a dark chocolate with caramel sample?" Um, how 'bout 5 samples!? I wonder if they'd provide me with a sample if I visited at least once a day? Twice a day, maybe... OK, so the store is pretty small and cramp, but they've still got the usual selection, along with the excellent customer service. And anything with a candy counter can't be that bad - ever. While I've never said no to a free sample, my all-time favorite is the Almond Royal... just thinking about it makes me feel 10 lbs. heavier. I'm no chocolate snob, so I'll take Scharffen Berger, Godiva, Ghirardelli, and Goobers, as well as See's Candies any day !!! read more

Five stars for See's! I love See's. Grandma always had a box of See's around. I'm only a moderate chocolate snob -- I can't stand cheap chocolate (Whitman's Sampler holds zero appeal) -- but See's is all I need. The chocolate smell in this particular shopping plaza, by the way, mostly comes from the nearby Guittard chocolate factory. Guittard, located in unassuming Burlingame, happens to make nearly all the chocolate for See's Candies nationwide. I worked for See's during one Christmas season, mainly to soak up See's culture, eat as much free chocolate as I wanted during break, and learn how to identify the different varieties by sight. So I speak from authority when I say that it is See's policy to offer a free sample to every shopper who enters the store. (The policy specifically prohibits giving candy to non-shoppers, such as the UPS delivery person, however -- go figure.) During the Christmas season they assign a whole person to stand in front and hand out samples. During the rest of the year you have to get your sample at the counter. read more

Let's just say this store 12 yrs ago was the best sees candies to shop at. But then they got rid of there good employees. And the store went to crap especially with Stephanie Harvey became the manager not only is she rude and rolls her eyes up at you when your asking her questions. But she is an unhappy person. So don't ask her for any help when you visit the store. Go to south city they are very sweet there especially Susan she is really helpful read more

What a nice piece and everyone there works hard. The good attitude makes it so nice. All the workers were friendly and helpful. The star there is the Darrence Davis who has done a good job with the best attitude anyone can. read more

Okay seriously , who can resist? This place is absolutely magical! I feel like a kid in a candy store, duh! Who can resist anything with praline or nuts? If you're not careful, you can do some serous damage so pace yourself! And try and show some restraint! read more

A good See's. Friendly staff, easy parking, the usual awesome chocolates.

If you must visit this See's store, avoid the nasty, large man who works there. He was so rude and condescending to me, I could not deal with him and decided not to make a purchase, even after waiting in a long line. Honestly I am surprised someone like him is allowed to deal with customers. I will never set foot in this store again. read more

I got totally dissed by the little old chocolate lady at this location. She offered me a free chocolate, I gladly accepted and then remarked how I wanted to get a job at See's Candies just so I could eat free chocolate all day long. The lady told me I wouldn't be able to fit out the door! I retorted with "I'll bankrupt this motherf**er". Ok, I didn't really cuss at the sweet old lady. read more

I heart sees candies, and this store in particular. The counter persons are super nice and friendly, and their uniforms are a slice of americana. I have been to other Sees candy stores, and while the staff is generally nice, the service provided by the staff at this store is by far the best service I have received! I usually go to the mall since the store is open longer there and I get off work late often, but I plan to to buy my Sees candies from this spot whenever I can. Now everyone has their own favorite flavors, and their reasons for liking it. Mine are: scotchmallow, marzipan, peanut brittle, dark molasses chip, and p-nut crunch. Try them if you haven't yet, but don't blame me if you get hooked and gain a couple pounds!! read more

Fast forward twenty-five years, and you will see me here in my white uniform behind the counter, supplementing my meager Social Security checks with part-time employment, generously spreading the smiles and the chocolate, before taking SamTrans back to my 1 BD condo, walking distance from shopping and the library, of course; awaiting the phone call from my daughter, long since grown and now needing advice on child-rearing herself (which she will ignore). I can see it all so clearly. But one question remains: Will I still be completely addicted to the amazing Peanut Brittle Bar? read more

If you want a quick fix to your chocolate craving for FREE (free samples), hit up See's. I'm starting to sound cheap lately ..... Never a lot of people, and probably one of the few See's stores NOT in the mall. read more

It's hard not to like See's Candies. You know exactly what to expect in each store - the wonderful chocolate aroma as you walk in, the bright and clean store, the nicely stacked boxes, the friendly ladies who always offer you a piece of chocolate... I love the chocolate little pops and the awesome nut and chew bars - both are great snacks. read more

How can you rate less than 5 stars to a place that always offers samples?!?!? Seriously the candy is delicious, high quality and always fresh tasting and staff always pleasant. Its a little smaller than your average Sees but they seem to have everything there. Highly recommended. read more

Had a wonderful experience last weekend. I was buying five boxes of 1lb candies for family friends in Hong Kong. I did not like the boxes they had pre packed as I wanted a few more nut candies. Kathleen helped me and was so patient and kind she asked me if I wanted to customize each box! Wow! She spent 30 minutes with me allowing me to pick each candy I wanted. She is so friendly and I really appreciated her patience. I'll visit again soon! read more

Amazing people work here. The chocolate is always fresh and delicious . You always get a sample or two.

The sales ladies are very friendly, patient, and always wear a smile. Great sweet shop.

Ok of course any candy shop is going to get high stars from me, but this place is great. I always get greeted happily when entering and the staff is very friendly. I have been when it is full of customers and when just a few. I love how they helped my niece and made her feel she was not being talked down to but as a customer. They offered free samples and talked with her about working there...when she is older, she is just 10. It is nice to have small stores to shop in and get personal service. read more
