This sees candy is located in Almaden Plaza near the Costco. What's great about this location? Is you can run into the Costco to buy the discounted gift cards to get a huge bump in your purchasing power. I bought a bunch of gift cards and ran over to Sees Candy. To pick up some gifts and popped in about 15 minutes before closing. It was not my intention to do that but the cashier was super nice. He even helped me choose the right items for the gifts. I ended up spending about $130 but it probably only cost me 100 so that was a good deal. Gift cards are great. I also sampled a few pieces of candy which even though I'm not a candy aficionado, I can't resist a piece or two. Parking on that side of the shopping center is usually very easy and the store is accessible from the parking lot. You don't need to wander into the shopping center, which is super nice. I recommend this place because of the level of service and proximity to Costco. read more

I stopped by See's candy today for a few gifts. I was politely greeting when I entered the store. This location is small. I was a little disappointed with their selection. They must not have stocked up their items because things looked sparse in there. I did get some help looking for a Halloween plushy. They will get those in next week. I found a few items that worked out and I was able to use my $5.00 coupon I received in the mail. They offered me a complimentary chocolate of my choice. I chose the orange cream in milk chocolate. I was given another coupon for my next visit. Hopefully they will have more Halloween options the next time I stop by. read more

Big shout out to Jan C. Who was the absolute sweetest in helping me pick out some goodies today. She was welcoming and her customer service was superior! We need more Jan C's in this world!!! read more

My cousin became a See's fan after she visited this store. She raved about how great the service is here. Believe it or not, I've never been to a See's store before. She invited me to go with her on her next trip. The same woman who helped her on her visit was there. Her name is Jan. She was friendly and knowledgeable. She gave us samples to try and never rushed us. Such great customer service! We ended up buying a box each and left very happy. Thank you, Jan, for making my first time inside a See's a great experience! I'll definitely be back. PS. The Summertime Candy is a must try! read more

I've been to this See's candies a few times through the years. Todays visit stood out to me. First off, it's nice and cool in there! There is always at least 2 people working which is nice too so they could assist me and the other lady there. The gentleman that helped me was named Jamie, I believe he was also the assistant manager. Frankly he is the happiest worker I've ever seen in any establish I've been to! What a nice pleasant man. He said great things about working at See's; and I wish every company treated their customers and workers like See's! Their candies are always fresh and I never have a gripes. Plus, love the free samples! I got something new today too. read more

I came here a few days before Christmas in a weekday midday. There was a long line (about 10 people out the door). The line didn't seem to move much but finally after 45 minutes I got inside. Since they only let 4 customers in at a time, it will take a while to get through. There was a total of 5 staff members that I could see. I was able to make an awesome custom dark chocolate box and the gentleman behind the counter was so patient and kind. A few employees were hustling to restock shelves while I was getting my custom box. Some customers can get extra nasty because they don't have any patience or due to their poor planning. I felt bad for the employees please be mindful that the employees are serving customers with their best foot forward. Even though the line was super slow, employees came out twice to give samples to those waiting in line to help. They continued to do so when I was shopping inside. Please share kindness especially during COVID stage purple and holidays! read more

Jan C is one of the most radiantly cheerful human beings I have encountered to date!! I'm so grateful for her kindness today when my daughter and I stepped in to buy a couple of fun Valentines Day gifts. She was so kind and proactive with every customer who stepped through the door. Thanks, Jan!! read more

See's Candies is always so yummy! There is such a wide variety from making your own box to picking out boxes that have been already premade. there is only about two employees, which makes service a little slow on buying stuff. Also, the store is really clean which is good obviously. But it can be really pricey. Other than that, I love the entire store! read more

Excellent candy and wonderful customer service! This is the best candy shop ever. I've been enjoying it since I was a child! Service is always good and the sample is awesome. read more

Nice candy store and I can remember eating See's when I was a kid. I specifically went to Almaden Plaza before dinner to look for Café Latté (https://www.sees.com/search?q=cafe+latte) Krispy's and after searching for them I found them in the back. On the right hand side. Yes. I was offered and given a choco sample, forgot which one, but it was a chew. A really good tasing chew. To this day I think that See's is one of the better chocolate one can buy and the variety is fair. Pro's: Lot's of variety. Chocolates, chew's, brittle, toffee, lollypops. And more. Sample some chocolate and try a new one. Near the bookstore, Barnes and Noble I think. Con's: Is pricey depending on what you get. I definitely get and give these for a good occasion like Halloween and the New Year as a present. Parking can be a hassle with aggressive and weird drivers, so careful. Other than that I love my CLK. yr #52 SC # 26 Enso here to Celebrate with Chocolate. 2018 read more

Stopped by to grab some truffles for my fiancé. The staff greeted me as I walked in and showed me the new promotions going on for St.Patrick's Day and Easter. The store was set up nicely. They had everything I needed and were very friendly. I was in and out in no time. You also gotta love the samples they send with you for the road! read more

They had for reasonable price the gold covered chocolate coins. My wife and I used them for our New Years decorations. And the coins are yummy as well. read more

I was craving some scotchmallows and discovered that See's was still open. They are currently open for PICK UP ONLY. I was able to order my chocolates through the website - super easy to use btw. You can also call in your order if you'd like. I ordered around 9 AM and received an email at 9:53 AM that it was ready. See's doesn't open until 10 AM, so I was surprised that it was so quick. When picking up, you will need to call the store to let them know that you arrived for your order. They will then deliver to you at the front. Really easy! Thank you to See's for supplying us with delicious chocolates during COVID-19!! You do a great job! read more

How can I not write a 5 star review for a chocolate store?? Chocolate is one of my favorite things in the whole world! This store is perfectly covered in boxes of chocolate from wall to wall, and there is always a nice display of every type of chocolate you can imagine. The store is always decorated by the upcoming holiday. This time it was decorated with Fourth of July decorations. The best part is if you only want a few pieces that's okay! Sometimes I will leave with only one cup of chocolate. To make things even better, the first thing that happens when you walk in is they give you a sample. That's like a foot in the door tactic, because then I end up buying a lot more chocolate. Of course, you can take the sample and leave. There have been a few times I just went in for a sample. Can't wait to go back! Yummy! read more

Boy, I did not anticipate how busy Sees's was the eve of Valentine's Day. Ughhh...I totally should have because their chocolates are wonderful so why wouldn't this be one of their busiest time of the year! And of course being the stubborn woman that I am, I fell for the time entrapment the minute I stepped foot inside See's door and lined up. I wasn't budging from that line until I got my Valentine's gifts for my babies. I'm all in people! And from the look of things ao was the rest of the people in this little shop! Lol~ The line was literally almost out the door as this entire little chocolate shop was filled with about 30 people! There was a line of about a dozen or so customers at the customized chocolates counter. There were three little ladies working at a busy, busy honey bee's pace assembling chocolates and gift wrapping. Then there's a separate line for already pre-boxed candies/chocolates and that one also has about a dozen or so customers. Then there were customers milling about looking for the right sweet decadent morsels for their loved ones. And a very nice gentleman went about with a sample chocolate box for everyone to try. It felt like a scene out of the Charlie's Chocolates Factory minus the Oompa Loompas. It was like a well oiled machine of people just lining up with happy hearts and smiles waiting to pick out yummy chocolates for loved ones. Yours truly here Patiently waited 45 minutes and was so relieved when it was finally my turn. The lady who helped me smiled in amusement as I gleefully purchased 2 boxes of gift wrapped chocolates late for my kiddos. I finally made it out the door and jetted to pick up my daughter at the library. These kids are so beyond spoiled!! I suppose I only have a few more years to spoil them before they are off on their own and will purchase their own sweet treats for Valentine. I love that sees made sure to take care of their customers while they shopped as my heart was full and my mouth was happy as I chomped on a walnut square and a caramel chew while I waited! Lol~ Adding 500 calories to today's count was well worth it. Oh, I should I have taken a closer pic of the the heart chocolate boxes options as they were super cute. Some were for $6.99 and others $12.99 of I heard correctly from the ladies. Anyhow, Happy Valentine's 2020 Yelpers. Sending everyone lots of love and happy hearts this Valentine. read more

The best See's candy store in the area. Dalton was friendly, patient, and extremely helpful! Customer service at its best! Go Dalton!!

Why go into a See's Candies... three words 'Carmel covered marshmallow'. Ok, so maybe there is a second reason ... they give you free samples of anything you want to try ... including the 'Carmel covered marshmallow'! So... maybe it is really only one reason? read more

This location has the best customer service. Came here to shop some candies for Christmas and I was so delighted by their hospitality. I had a ton of questions and they were so happy to answer all of them and also they were so patient with me although there was a long line behind me they still didn't rush. They're also happy to provide you with as many samples so that you can decide which chocolate goes in your customized box. I am definitely going to come back here to shop for every occasion. read more

Ray is as sweet as the candy he's selling. Such a warm, friendly person who does a wonderful job! The employees at sees are usually all wonderful, and they are one of the main reasons I come back to shop (that, and the free samples!) I didn't plan on buying anything other than lollipops, but I bought the peanut butter bites as well on Ray's recommendation. Thanks for the great visit! read more

See's Candies - Peanut Butter Bites - Candy Stores Near Me - San Jose, California

I believe some of the best candy that money can buy - and still, its not that high in price. Competitors are maybe Ghirardelli and Godiva. I much prefer the dark chocolate raspberry from here compared to Ghirardelli - mostly because there are no seeds in the Sees version. In general I think Godiva is great - maybe a few flavors taste better than Sees but overall not as good a value. This particular location has a comfortable overhang and patio. There are a few places to sit outside which is very pleasant. The staff here doesn't fuss over you like at other locations but they were still polite to me. Even if there is a line I've always found Sees to be a pleasant shopping experience. Given I'm a regular I admire the consistency in service and quality of chocolate. The ambiance of the stores are always a special treat. Unbeatable chocolate aroma and super squeaky clean floors. I like that. One last thing I admire about Sees candies is that they are never on sale. There is never a coupon or discount or any of that nonsense. You will not find these half off the day after Valentines day - it doesn't happen. I really don't like discounts and good deals unless I'm buying investments. I don't have time for that nonsense and its that mindset that has put children to slavery in Malysia so people in the USA can have cheaper furniture and cheaper Dyson vacuums. Good deals always cost somebody somewhere along the chain. Usually these days I eat lots of 75% Coco chocolate (by Lindt or Ghirardelli) for the health benefits - so this stuff is a special treat. If I were you I would do my Christmas shopping from here now. Store your candy in an (air tight) ice chest in a cool spot and it will last 2 months without a doubt. read more

Great chocolate with a friendly staff. Bryant was willing to answer all my questions and showed a lot a patience.

Snotty lady just said they are out of the cinnamon suckers and won't get anymore until next year. So I wait in line forever while 2 other employees walk around doing little straightening or whatever. They don't even offer a piece of can anymore while you wait. So I left and will get my boxes of Valentines candy at the grocery store. No time for this nonsense. read more

See's is the best! Their chocolate is top notch! Remarkably we had a sour clerk today. Very unusual experience. The staff generally have been friendly in all my experiences with See's over my life time. read more

Who doesn't love some See's at Christmas time? The workers here are very friendly, and even gave me an option of what I wanted as a sample! Appreciate the photos they have of what is inside the boxes! read more

The candy is still one of the best! I went to get a pound of chocolate pieces.... all delicious , though when I asked for my free piece, as always given with a smile, (and spent over 30.00 on my pound of candy) the lady said no and said a root beer sucker was the free item only. Much to my surprise without an explanation of a possible new policy, she sent me on my way with a good bye. See's candy has been around for many years and this type of customer service was not what I had hoped for. I will not be returning nor will I say any praise for the this Almaden Boulevard store. ! read more

Meagan P. was awesome! I came in trying to pick up a mobile order my mom had placed, not realizing we needed to wait for a confirmation to pick up. I though it was an immediate order and then come pick up kind of situation, my bad!! They were pretty busy, but Meagan helped me out anyways and I'm so grateful for her wonderful customer service. We got an assorted box and a box of peanut brittle and everything was absolutely delicious. 10/10 for customer service and 10/10 for yumminess! read more

See's Candy may be open but the service is rotten you can't go in the store you have to call your order in found that out after we arrived at the store on Almaden then went back to the car to call the order in they only had five pieces of the candy that we wanted and dark chocolate and none in milk chocolate wow they can't even stock the candy I won't be going back to See's Candy until all this s***'s over I don't got time to waste read more

I'm very disappointed in Sees candies as of later this is the second time I've walked in (carrying my baby) one of their stores and experiences terrible customer service. They could care less about helping customers. Today, a very elderly woman was helping a customer. No acknowledgement of me when I walk in. So I pick up my items for purchase and walk around the store while waiting. Another man and his daughter walk in. A gentleman walks out from the back and immediately gives the guy samples and starts helping him!! So I left my items. Will not purchase from this store. How simple would it be to say welcome to sees and as an employee inform the other workers a) there are other customers please come help and b) this woman was here first please help her. The other store this happened in was Valley Fair. A bunch of employees in back and the worker up front helping a very slow customer again no acknowledgement or "here have a free sample while you wait" read more

Ok, so my tip of the day... go there when they aren't busy. seriously. this is my regular locatin for when i have candy buying needs. always a fine store to visit. well we stopped in last night randomly, and were the only ones in the store. service was awesome! really, we had so much fun. the lady working was telling us about new candies they had in, talking to us about the difference between one thing and another... it was pretty cool. of course, she started with a sample candy as soon as we walked in. yum. we ended up leaving with all kinds of yummies. it was just nice to have someone who really seems to enjoy what she does, who was willing to spend the time to engage with us. totally unexpected, totally awesome. read more

There isn't a nicer place to go in Almaden than See's. The people are so nice and the store is so clean. Plus, they always give you free candy without you even asking. The prices are great and there is no better service in any store anywhere. The employees LOVE working for See's and it shows. I just love this place, maybe Almaden Family Physicians should hire their employees from here instead from prison. read more

Kinda small store, so I felt like the employees were staring at me the entire time. Relatively high prices but good peanut brittle.

This is a wonderful place, I am in love with the nuts and chews, how amazing is that box of treats?? The staff are very friendly and the store is so clean but I am only giving 4 stars because I waited to pay for over 15 minutes. Yes, it was close to Easter but when you are on a time constraint with two people serving and a small store full if bustling people - put more staff on! Having said all that - Sees Candies is amazing and will def be back. read more

There was this wonderful lady named Monica she was so sweet and made the process so much faster and was really quick.

Now what's not to like about a place where they kindly offer you up a free piece of candy as soon as you walk in the door? I mean, really; it's free chocolate! See's may not be the greatest chocolate on earth. In fact, it's probably not. It's not the worst either. It's been a tradition in our family for gift giving for many years. Gotta' love the cute little shop with the friendly employees who were happy to serve me today. I got a box of hand-picked chocolates; birthday wrapped up with a smile. Great service, clean shop with good customer service. Sometimes that's all it takes to warrant five stars. You can always count on See's. read more

Man so overpriced now. Used to gift it all the time to people. Now I rather go elsewhere to pay a little more for better chocolate

Simply the best candy out there, and this location had a really good selection of candies to choose from. A bright & cheerful employee made the trip worth it. read more

Like any See's Chocolate Shop, they offer a chocolate samples, friendly smiles, and awesome smell of chocolate in the air. I occasionally like to buy a box of See's Chocolate, although I don't eat that much, but its placed for guest when they come over. Must try the Scotchmallow; its a marshmallow, carmel, dark chocolate. Yummy, my favor! Seat on the couch bon bon kind of chocolate! read more
