Iced cream wasn't as hard as I would've liked but had a great flavor. The carrot cake was wonderful! Service was nice, quick and friendly.

First off, I have to give a shoutout to the owner--he was incredibly friendly and even let my girlfriend sample some fudge. The store had an endless variety of both new and old-school candies to choose from. They even had this really cool jelly bean machine with a wide assortment of flavors to bag up. Before leaving, I made sure to grab some treats to share with my family too! I can't wait to come back in the summer to see what new goodies they'll have.

Or...perhaps even for the days when you are? Maybe it's ice cream in town and candy back at the vacation rental. Sweet Haven ticks all the boxes: various small candy in bulk; taffy in bulk; old-fashioned packaged candy; higher-end chocolates; Jelly Bellys; and of course FUDGE. It's a dangerous and delightful place. I'm not sure about the prices. This stuff *seems* expensive, but since you don't buy an armload of candy very often (do you??), it's hard to tell. So just go ahead and treat yourself (and your kids I guess, but mostly you, because sugar is bad for kids) and see whether you can make it last beyond the journey home at the end of the trip.

The chili in the loaded fries tasted like it came from an expired can found in a dollar store. The plain fries were fine and the blt was fine. But they certainly didn't make up for the other food. I love how it has kept the roots of its style; old time diner and cozy atmosphere. But they need to take a hard look at the food quality.

We stopped here with our young boys during our cross-country road trip. Before visiting, I had…read moreexpected there might be a factory tour or some opportunity to see how the candy was made, but that's not the case. This location is strictly a retail outlet. Even so, we still had a great time. The selection of candy was excellent, and it was fun browsing all of the different varieties and trying some of the treats they had available. As expected, the candy was delicious and lived up to the quality we've come to expect from the brand. If you're hoping for a behind-the-scenes factory experience, you may be disappointed. However, if you're simply looking to stock up on great candy and enjoy a fun stop during your travels, it's definitely worth a visit.

I live 2,000 miles away and love seeing their products distributed on the west coast. The factory itself is on another level. It can be very crowded, but it's understandable.

This place has become a staple in the region and I absolutely love to see how they've grown over the years.
