    So much candy! This store is filled to the brim with sweets, treats, and unique beverages. I love walking through these colorful stores and always try (unsuccessfully) to resist buying candy. This time I bought black licorice jelly beans and some weird beverages (like ranch, Buffalo chicken wing, and dog drool). Prices are typical for similar establishments. We were already in The Island and stopped in as we walked through the area. Overall, pretty typical candy shop that you will find in touristy areas. Worth the walk in to admire the colorful atmosphere and unique selections.

    OMG. I get why I see so many kids having a meltdown after their sugar high wanes after a few hours of running around the island. There are so many carby stores on this island, but this place is completely dedicated to sugary sweets.

    Smells like candy the second you walk in. I would definitely go here again. They had all kinds of candy, including freeze dried candy and souvenirs with names on them!

    Receipt showing price per ounce of bulk candy.

    Great little shop with a huge variety of candies that we can't find where we live. We always make a point to drop in here on vacation and let the kids (and husband) get a treat for the ride home. Prices are average for the bulk candy @ $4.24/quarter pound ($16.96/lb). Boxed or bagged items are significantly higher than you'd pay elsewhere in a retail shop. The staff is usually quite friendly and polite, but this visit was the exception. My teenage son was trying to do the right thing by letting them know a sour rope had fallen out of the container onto the floor and the gentleman working the register seemed to not understand what he was saying. Definite language barrier until another worker stepped in to explain. After that, we put all our little bags in the scale to be weighed and he gave us a total of $127!!! Now I know this stuff is expensive, but we didn't have 7lb worth of candy. I asked if he could re-weigh it to be sure, and it came to 60oz which is 3.75lbs. Quick math in my head told me around $60, which I expected- but he kept insisting it was $127. I said there's no way. A young lady came to the register and she said "It's 4.24 for a QUARTER pound." I replied "Yes, I'm aware...but that's only $16, almost $17 dollars." She said "It's actually closer to $20." Ummm...no. Give this lady a calculator. I turned to my husband and said even at her $20/lb it should NOT be $127 for 60oz. She said "I'm TRYING to explain to you it's $4.24 for a QUARTER pound." Again, I'm doing this math in my head, and I know at $16.96 per pound it works out to just over $1 per ounce. We have 60oz, so definitely NOT $127. Not sure what she did or if she just realized something was entered incorrectly, but she hit a button on the register and it came to $69.80 after taxes, which was much more accurate. Now that price I'll pay. But there was no apology, no acknowledgement of any error, and clearly there needs to be some attitude adjustment and basic math training. Perhaps rechecking your process should be standard when people who are capable of mental math question the total, especially when they acknowledge they understand the total price per pound. This made the experience sour rather than sweet and I'm not likely to continue our tradition of dropping by Sweet.

    I took my 6 year old here last night for a birthday treat. He was the epitome of the saying "like a kid in a candy store". This place is a kids dream. I'm pretty fond of it as well. They have just about anything you could want. The employees are always friendly and the store is kept clean. It is a little pricey, but that's why candy is a treat.

    My husband and I filled up a bag fully of a variety mix and then went to the arcade and ate it as we played. It was a blast! They have giant candy boxes as well. I bough giant nerds for my husband, it's a week later and he's still eating them lol so many so yummy

    Outrageous priced candy. Almost $3.50 for 1/4lb??? It's ludicrous. Although they have lots of different varieties that price is way to high

    The Apple Barn & Cider Mill was such a fun find during my time in the Smoky Mountains! What makes…read morethis place special is that it isn't just somewhere to run in, buy something, and leave. The entire property feels like a destination worth taking the time to explore. I loved the relaxed, old-fashioned atmosphere. There's something wonderfully nostalgic about visiting a place centered around apples, cider, country shops, and Smoky Mountain hospitality. Give yourself time to wander because there is more to see here than you might expect. For me, places like this are part of what makes traveling memorable. The big attractions may get most of the attention around Pigeon Forge and Sevierville, but I also love finding stops with their own personality and sense of place. The Apple Barn definitely has both. It's a great addition to a Smoky Mountains itinerary, especially if you enjoy discovering local flavors, browsing for something unique to take home, or simply finding an interesting place away from the area's larger attractions. I also found plenty of charming details that caught my photographer's eye, which always makes a stop even more enjoyable for me. Definitely worth allowing some extra time for this one rather than treating it as a quick stop. I'd gladly return the next time my travels bring me back to the Smokies!

    Some attractions sell an experience…read more Some sell a product. The Apple Barn Cider Mill somehow manages to do both. What started as a simple stop turned into one of the more enjoyable experiences of our trip. The star of the visit was our guide, who took us on a cider journey through the various flavors and offerings. She was friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely seemed to enjoy what she was doing. She answered questions, explained the differences between the ciders, and made the tasting experience fun instead of feeling like a sales pitch. And since there's a chance she might somehow see this review: Happy 40th Birthday! Sorry I forgot your name, but your hospitality certainly wasn't forgettable. Now let's talk about the cider. Excellent. There was a large variety of flavors available to sample, making it easy to compare styles and find a favorite. Whether you're new to cider or consider yourself a seasoned enthusiast, there's enough variety here to keep things interesting. After sampling our way through the lineup, we wound up purchasing a glass of the original apple cider and enjoyed it outside. And honestly, that's where the experience really came together. Sitting outside with a fresh cider in hand, playing cornhole and Jenga, enjoying the atmosphere, and slowing down for a little while made for a genuinely relaxing afternoon. No rushing. No crowds pushing you along. Just good cider and good company. We also picked up a growler to bring back to the hotel because one thing became very clear during the tasting process: leaving empty-handed would have been a mistake. The Apple Barn Cider Mill does a great job creating an experience that's welcoming, fun, and memorable without feeling overly commercialized. Great cider. Great staff. Great atmosphere. Five stars. And judging by the growler currently waiting back at the hotel, I'm already looking forward to my next visit.
