My husband and I had the sweetest little date night at Sweet Nothings on Madison, and it truly felt like we were kids in a candy store. The moment we walked in, we were surrounded by colorful treats and nostalgic vibes that made the whole experience fun and lighthearted. He chose the espresso cookies n cream ice cream on a waffle cone, and I went with the classic cookies n cream on a waffle cone. Both were creamy, flavorful, and honestly hit the spot perfectly. We also grabbed a bag of their fruit slice candies in a mix of flavors, and they were so soft, fresh, and perfectly coated in sugar. Each piece had a bold, juicy flavor that made it hard to stop snacking. We couldn't believe we only spent $15 for such a cute and satisfying treat. After ordering, we took our cones and candy and enjoyed a peaceful walk around the square, just talking and enjoying each other's company. It felt simple, romantic, and refreshing all at the same time. We're definitely coming back again and next time, we're bringing the babies so they can experience the magic too. read more

We can't not stop here when we're around. We had dinner at MPC, and went to sweet noshings after. This is my go to ice cream spot because they have such unique flavors and quality ice cream. They always have banana pudding which is my favorite and it's such a fun place to look around while you wait in line. There are so many candies to look at and they even had some Labubu balloons my kids were asking for. It's a fun place. We love the Chicago mix popcorn! Checkout was easy and $16 for 4 ice creams was a very reasonable price IMO. read more

This review is for Sweet Noshings on Perkins not Madison. This is an awesome candy shop. I'm not easily impressed with candy shops. The store has a vast selection of a really great candy in self serve candy jars. Gummy candy is 9.99 a pound and chocolate candy is 19.99 a pound. You can mix and match any of the Gummies or mix and match any of the chocolates. I bought three small-medium bags. A bag of gummy's, a bag of mixed chocolate balls, and a bag of chocolate bonbon type items like cherries and coconut, buckeyes and chocolate covered Oreos. The candy selection is excellent. The store is bright and fun and child friendly. There were several different age, children roaming around delightfully. And there's so many different options that you can literally fill up a bag with dozens of different candies, all yummy and high quality taste. Heads up, like everything these days, its going to add up fast. i paid 28$ for the three bags, none of them were filled more than 1/4 to halfway. I didn't see any scales until I checked out, so I'm not sure how much they weighed. They are all good. A big enthusiastic yes for this candy shop. Service is usually the Gen Z stereotype....not unique to this candy shop but definitely unique to the generation. read more

Pretty good prices and loooots to choose from. We got some gummies and some chocolates!

Stopped in thinking this had places to sit and talk, so a bit disappointed when we see it's basically just a candy store that happens to sell coffee. It has an enormous variety of candies, which you can buy by the piece or pound. They also offer about 10-20 types of ice cream, and more than that of popcorn, probably some things I missed. read more

I stopped in on a whim was immediately a pretty impressed by the fun, welcoming, and huge selection of treats. The shop is super colorful and nostalgic like stepping into a candy lovers dream they've got everything from classic sweets and uniquely lovely novelty candies to fresh homemade popcorn and ice cream. I tried their birthday cake, ice cream, and a bag of cheddar caramel popcorn mix both were absolutely delicious. the popcorn is made fresh in house and the ice cream had the perfect creamy texture with just the right amount of sweetness. The staff was friendly patient and having to offer samples and recommendations which made the experience even better. this is the kind of place that makes you feel like a kid again. Whether you're looking for a fun gift, a sweet snack, or just a hit of nostalgia sweet noshing is 100% worth the visit. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in Midtown or East Memphis read more

This is like a classic candy store where you can walk around and scoop candy out of jars. However, the real hidden treat is the ice cream that they make in-house. The owners have created amazing flavors like chai and mango. If you're walking around Overton Square, you should definitely stop in - but walk past the candy and head straight for the ice cream! read more

They have good homemade ice cream..enough said. I can finish the review here, LOL! No, but seriously this is such a cool store to visit when in Overton Square. It's especially to stop in with the kiddos, but hey even if you want to go in alone it is worth the visit. There are so many options to choose from. There are many areas. You can get packaged candy, candy from the jars, etc. The store is super clean and of course there are guidelines in place to keep customers safe during COVID19. They staff is really helpful even on a busy day like the day I visited. Aside from candy, you can also get other items including mask, keychains, and many other fun items for adults and children. I love how family friendly this place is a well. read more

I love the choices in ice creams and the staff is friendly. I will be there again for the alcoholic choices which are equally amazing.

Overton square is a great place to go have a nice relaxing day. Sweet Noshings is a great spot for people with a sweet tooth and they have a wide variety of options to choose from read more

Delicious ice cream! Cute atmosphere and kind workers who let us try a couple of flavors!

I love finding local ice cream shops and this one did the trick! They make their ice creams in house and have you ever heard of a cookies and cream with an Oreo ice cream base?! Total game changer The worker was sweet and let me order a kids scoop even though I'm older than 10! haha Their popcorn looked fun too! read more

A life saver if you eat in midtown and want a sweet bite straight after! Wonderful vibe, absolutely stop in if you're walking in the area.

Wow! They've got quite the collection here! The candy offerings in the jars are pretty extensive, and the coffee options are great! I ordered a small caramel latte (extra sweet) and the hubs had a large "redeye" (their boldest coffee with an extra shot of espresso)! -- He's the driver, can you tell? Lol! Oh, but we didn't stop there. I also ordered a maple pecan milkshake and the hubs got a birthday cake shake -- because we just had to! You'd think we'd be finished at this point, but we weren't. Lastly, we grabbed a bag of Chicago Mix popcorn. And as the Yelpers before me have stated, it's DELISH! And also, as a few reviewers before me have pointed out, the girls at the counter still have no earthly idea where the heck it comes from-- But it's darned GOOD! Finally, if ya' know me, you know I love a good photo op! SN has a plethora of options inside (even in the restroom) so get ready to snap! Sweet Noshings is a gem in the Overton Square lineup, and we LOVED our visit! read more

Right when I walked in I could tell that this place is much different than other ice cream shops I have Been to. This place was like a full on candy shop. I did not know how good their ice cream is going to be, but they got loads of candy. As the staff was scooping the ice cream, we explored all of the candy the shop had to offer. And at this point I was starting to get the sense that this was more of a candy place rather than a true ice cream shop. But I didn't want to judge a book by its cover, so everything is going to come down to the taste test. I got a banana pudding, and I am going to be honest, as far as ice cream goes this place is very average. They didn't have that much variety, and I didn't love any of the flavors. I am sure the candy is great, but at the end of the day, I was in the mood for some ice cream read more

The store is great but the employees are very scary. They just stare at you and you can't even get ice cream. One girl was talking to herself or something. Cute store but the employees are scary. Also, a lot of their stuff has no price tags. read more

I went here for the first time Tuesday evening to show a sister of mine around the city & I was in awe by the vast selection of sweets from hard candy to fudge and even homemade ice cream! We decided on the espresso cookies and cream and the Jack Daniel's Honey ice cream! I haven't had such a creamy and subtle tasting alcohol infused ice cream before! 10/10 for sure! They require masks in the store which is amazing! & they even have a few if you forgot yours! Stop by and grab some ice cream to make your worries fly away! read more

Mask mandate but no masks? It's fine to require masks even if most businesses are not, however may want to have a 10cent mask available for your customers about to drop $$ on your doorstep! Didn't make it past the threshold. read more

Okay. So this will be a little cliche, but when you walk in, you will be a kid in a candy store!

I went to the store recently for the first time with my toddler, and we had such a great time. Just the experience / atmosphere alone is very uplifting and nostalgic, but I have to say the employees were also incredibly friendly, and the fudge is amazing - got the cookies and cream and raspberry - both incredible. Will be back soon. read more

While they have nearly everything and even some things you didn't even know existed, the customer service here is what you come for. Friendliest staff and fast service. It was very busy when we went and didn't have to wait even a moment to check out or get service at the ice cream counter. They didn't hesitate to ask if we needed help and anticipated our needs. Parking is convenient as there is a garage right behind Overton Square and it is usually $3. Plenty to do other than this but definitely a place to find fun and unusual treats. They have ice cream, jelly beans, chocolates, drinks, gummies, sour candy, novelty items, and popcorn. I'm sure there is more but it's packed for the small space that it is! If you are wanting to treat even an adult, they would love this place. Something for everyone! read more

Sweet Noshings - Jelly beans! - Candy Stores Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Pretty cool sweet shop. This place is open late on a Saturday night and was packed. Guess people with a sweet tooth come out at night. They have parking on the street in front of the shop. They have chocolate popcorn ice cream and more. I had the honey jack whiskey ice cream and the Bourbon chocolate. If your gonna eat ice cream eat ice cream with alcohol. This stuff was so good and it's no additional cost to it compared to the other flavors. Staff were friendly and attentive. The store was clean. Despite the crowd the line moved! I recommend. Enjoy! read more

What a fun selection! Ice creams, sodas, and candy! I had the honey jack ice cream, Dublin vanilla cream soda a pound of various candies! Everything was exceptional! The only thing that could have made it better would be cinnamon chocolate covered bears! read more

This is like reliving being a kid again. They have so much candy and their ice cream is delicious. If you are of age they also have a bourbon and other liquor infused ice cream. Highly recommend their ice cream cookie and pop corn. read more

Sweet Noshings - Ice cream cookie - Candy Stores Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

I love the atmosphere of this place, but it is really over priced. Great place to go for that hard to find nostalgia candy.

I used to go there frequently. I am in my 70s and my bladder was suddenly letting me know I had to go. I asked to use the restroom. The clerk said there was none. I told her it was an emergency and obviously they had a restroom for employees. She said I could not use it. I left my things I intended to purchase on the counter and left. I won't be back. I understand not normally allowing it but this was an emergency and I was a regular customer. "Was" being the operative word. read more

Standard variety of candy options. Store was crowded though and wasn't inviting. It can use a revamp. Candy was held in glass jars, which multiple of them were cracked and chipped. The tongs and spoons were laying in between jars and not tethered , so customers could easily drop on the floor. I'm not sure if that's a food safety issue but it was concerning. Workers were friendly and approachable. read more

This place is a cute, hipstery looking dive that I walked into while I was waiting for my food to cook at Golden India down the street. When I stepped in I thought I'd walked into Sweets Heaven. There are jars all over this giant middle table and along the walls filled with goodies. There's also gelato! I got some gelato and fudge. The fudge was super strong and I couldn't finish it. It's so strong I eat it a few bites at a time. Oddly enough it went really well with the gelato (and the ice cream I had at home the next day). The gelato was awesome! I enjoyed the atmosphere and the experience. I'm not fond of candy so I'm not sure when I'll be back, but it was a fun experience just walking around inside. I forgot to ask them if they sell Ugly Mug Hot Chocolate! But I bet the Ugly Mug place nearby sells it!! Loved: - Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Gelato (all time FAV!) - Mint Chocolate Chip Gelato - Orange Sherbert Gelato Ok: - Chocolate Fudge - S'mores Gelato Disliked: - Chocolate cone read more

Absolutely love their variety of candy in here! I always come back for the coconut and red velvet taffy. I also highly recommend trying the chocolate covered s'more. The staff are always friendly and ready to serve! read more

The service staff members have not been friendly every time I've visited except for the very first visit. I love the goodies that this business offers and every item I've purchased has been fresh. The employees should appreciate customers more than they do. I will stop patronizing if there isn't an improvement in customer service. read more

My daughter love this place. Whenever we visit midtown she automatically remember that we're by the candy shop. She love her jelly beans.

I LOVE THIS PLACE! I possibly, single-handily keep this place in business (just kidding)! But I have been here monthly for the past few years! I love the candy selection of gummy candies! There are many flavors of gummy bears. They have the basic flavors and additional ones, including grapefruit and blueberry. There is also a lot of nostalgic candies like candy dots, warheads, Charleston chews, runts, and gum balls, etc. They have a huge chocolate section! The chocolate covered honey combs are so delicious! They also have chocolate covered peanut butter balls, other malt balls, giant Reese cups, and chocolate covered espresso beans. There is a fudge selection as well that has a variety of flavors. They also have popcorn and ice cream in many varieties and all delicious. There are special chocolates/ jelly beans from movies like Harry Potter and chocolates filled with different types of liquor. It's also across the street from a movie theater that allows outside treats! So you can stock up before the movie! It's such a fun atmosphere and there are a few seats at a little bar table. The staff are always friendly and they recognize me often! This is definitely the best candy store in Memphis! read more

We decided to return to this cute sweet shop after over a year of not being able to. Upon walking in, the place was a mess. Most candy jars were completely empty and dirty, there was dust in-between the jars, the floor was sticky, and there were barely any scoops. They even ran out of hand sanitizer at the entrance. Social distancing was definitely non-existent here and the majority of the customers weren't wearing their masks correctly. I got chocolate-covered coffee beans (a variety) and they weren't fresh, so I had to toss them out. I also got the sour strawberry strips, which are vegan, and dark chocolate malt balls and I really enjoyed them. Paying $17 WITH a tip, I don't think we'll be back for a while. read more

Customer Service is TRASH!!! I've been to Midtown plenty of times and it's always enjoyable. Today, I decided on ice cream and the young lady at the counter was BEYOND RUDE. I asked to speak to her manager and she continued with her rude behavior right in front of the manager/owner. She was even popping off at the Manager. If that is the kind of behavior that you have representing your establishment, I'll keep my dollars in my pocket. If I could have given a negative star rating I would have. Ps... their popcorn is never fresh. read more

What a nice little sweets shop down in this area of Memphis. We were next door eating dinner and noticed the 2 year that couldn't take her eyes off of the windows next door. We turn around and see windows full of sweets. After dinner we stopped in and grabbed some ice cream and a cookie. We tried their banana pudding and lemon ice cream. 2 very very good choices! This morning I tried the peanut butter cookie I purchased and it made for a delightful breakfast. read more
