So once we checked out of our hotel on Saturday, July 6th we were at the front doors when they opened. Once we were in the store the two sales associates greeted us and answered all the questions that we had. I went a little crazy and spent over $100 but it was well work it. Majority of the cost came from the cup and shot classes I got but the mixed box of truffles, salt water taffy, and fudge. Due to my size of purchase I was given a free bag as well as a bag of free mixed candy (about 1/4 lb) Overall, the experience is fun and they have some interesting items but would only be a trip I would do once a year or something for vacation.

Just be careful when loading your bags full of goodies. Anything sold by weight comes at a premium. Parking here is iffy based on the location (right at the beach).

So I did that too. All of the in person purchases were WONDERFUL and the online ordering was just as WONDERFUL. I was like a kid in a candy shop. I went a few times. I bought everyone I know treats. This Was the greatest Christmas gifts and we all got to sample each other's Christmas gifts. It was so much fun. We are all hooked now. You have got to try Crunch On Snacks.

Owner was rude! Last…read moreFebruary my husband and I flew to Norfolk and took the ferry to Portsmouth for the day. We found this shop and a beautiful (and pricey) piece of pottery in the front window that unfortunately I could not fly home with. Fast forward to today over 5 months later and it's still there. This time we drive and it was coming home. BUT... when I entered the shop the owner or employee was upstairs and when I said I needed help she continued to yell from above instead of coming down to the COMPLETELY EMPTY store. I explain I'd like to see the piece in the window and the she replies "Well I can't just take it out." I say "Even to sell?" She starts shuffling down stairs and muttering and says "I can't just take it out to look at" under her breath but loud enough for me to hear. Well that was it. We just told her not to bother herself and left. Enjoy your completely empty shop when it's closed because you can't be bothered to actually sell anything. And I agree with the owner... She had zero patience to actually sell anything. Not on the phone not doing anything but sitting upstairs and didn't want to be bothered. Just laziness. If you don't want to sell something big and can't be bothered to move it maybe don't put it in your display window or hire someone not rude and lazy. I try to shop local and support local businesses but if you don't want to be bothered and then LIE about it then you don't deserve the support. And if you were sorry you did a poor job of showing it.

This a a wonderful place to find those "hard to find" items for the Kitchen that you have been looking for or perhaps even the items that you didn't know that you needed. The salesperson was very friendly and helpful with our questions and she was savvy enough to offer suggestions for things that we had not considered. She was not pushy at all and we felt very comfortable just roaming around this eclectic store. A person could spend an hour (if you have the time) and still not "See" everything. The prices are reasonable for the quality offered and my Wife and I really enjoyed ourselves. If you are looking for for a wonderful place to pick up some items for your Kitchen, stop by the Kitchen Koop. You will be happy that you did and you can rest assured that you are supporting local business!

As for m, I selected a handful of sticky treats and a few types of brittle (they all still taste great). My grandfather would be happy.
