Hooray Monica R - we agree on the spelling! Well, you can imagine this shop right at the end of the Willy Wonka factory tour. Rows upon rows of clear jars containing old style sweets. The assistants are happy to advise and offer little tastings. Your choice of goodies are packaged in retro style paper bags to take away and share. Whether you're looking for some nostalgia about the sweets you grew up with or to discover some new taste sensation, Mrs Kibble's is definitely worth a visit.

There is also a cotton candy machine where you can watch it being made through the glass, all automated. We somehow left without purchasing anything due to our inability to take it back home.

I have to say, I'm pretty impressed with not only how this place has survived over the years, but…read moreevolved into a full-blown sit-down café, complete with sweets and treats to compliment their strong Greek coffee. They even have the fanciest gift boxes you've ever seen outside of Fortnum & Mason. Despite once having been solely a chocolate shop, the interior gives off some posh vibes that invite you to stay awhile. Weather permitting, they also have outdoor seating for some ultimate people-watching. The coffee itself could use some improvement, but overall, it isn't terrible. They serve it with a side of chocolates, so you could chew on the sweet merchandise to cut through the bitterness of the overly-roasted java. Service isn't always the fastest if you're sitting down to eat or drink, but it's more of a "come in and stay awhile" kind of place, anyway. If you are coming in to stay a while, however, expect to pay a lot more than the price of your coffee. My £3.60 oat flat white somehow turned into £6.36 when I got my bill. Considering everything you're getting in one stop, as well as the touristy area it's in, however, you could do worse. They even have a washroom, which - if you're familiar with this part of town - can be a Godsend.

When you enter you are dazzled by the bright white lights and walls and of course the wonderfully coloured sweeties and chocolates EVERYWHERE! It really is what sweet dreams are made of and this shop would totally fit in at Willy Wonka's chocolate factory! I would highly recommend spending a good 15/20 minutes here so that you have enough time to route for those truly weird and wonderful treats like the liquorice frogs, salted caramel chews and plopps! They also had some great chocolate and sweet sets - perfect for valentines/Christmas/Easter, basically any celebration or, a treat for yourself! It truly is a wonderful place and whether you're 8 or 80 you will love it!

When I was younger and lived in the UK I absolutely loved Bon Bon's, especially the lemon ones…read more Now I didn't just like any Bon Bon's I enjoyed the traditional ones, none of the imitation brands. The last decade when going back I've never found good ones in a pick n mix or in the bags at the grocery stores, I was only able to find cheaper versions and then I stumbled across Hardy's in London! Wow they have the most delicious Bon Bon's in every flavor you can possibly think of! I needed them to last a while so I bought a pre mixed bag for around 3 pound that had toffee, apple, blue berry, vimto, lemon, strawberry...you name the flavor and they had it! The other cool thing about this shop for UK residents is that they have all the "American" candy along with Flips pretzels, peanut butter, marshmallow fluff and other goodies. To me I obviously have this stuff everyday but my local friend was just as excited about the American candy and treats as I was with the bon bon's, we definitely walked out with a sugar high!

Picked up a multitude of Chocolate Blocks from their buy 3 for £5 special & there wasn't a bad one in the bunch.... if we visited again, I'd want to try their truffles Have to agree w/ Katri S that all the chocolates seemed to taste the same & what was interesting to me was that each started out w/ a weird 1st bite but then settled into yummy creamy chocolate after a few more bites. Guess it took a while for my palate to get used to their recipe? We tried the following & nothing really stood out & screamed * Milk Chocolate Fudge - supposed to have pieces of fudge but all I tasted was a creamy choco bar. It was good * Dark Chocolate Berry Boost - this obviously wasn't for me since I think it's a sin to mix fruit w/ my chocolate but no raving feedback received regarding it being outstanding * Belgian Milk Chocolate - basic milk choco bar * Chili Dark Chocolate - this had very little chili flavor & def no heated afterbite kick * Special Toffee - the toffee was chewy & made my teeth stick together. The best of the bunch * Venezuela Milk Chocolate - this tasted like every other Milk Chocolate bar I tried It was all good & I'd even say it was A-OK, but to rank it as Yay! I'm A Fan, I'd have to be craving it & wanting to seek it out on my next visit & for some reason, I'm just not

Easy, affordable and everyone likes it. Perfect for any occasion. Sometimes it even feels like that all the chocolates tastes a bit the same?

However, if I happen to wander by the shop I am sure to get my chocolates from there rather some other supermarket brand. It's still yummy!
