This would be a great place to treat your grade schooler after a good report card, and even better one to stock your "candy bar" table for your next event. Sugar also rotates their seasonally themed offerings. They carry every color jelly bean, gummy, and M & M imaginable. I love to put a smaller clear glass cylinder inside a larger one- fill the space with some of the above- choosing colors based on occasion-and then put water and flowers (like gerber daisies) in the inner one. Grouping several of different heights together in various colors makes a festive centerpeice. I also discovered an abundance of the kiddo coveted Sour Belts. Which- for a Pintrest addict means- edible bow making material! Lastly, the owner is also the operator, stock girl, and cashier. Which makes for a very clean, very well run, very service oriented, very friendly, atmosphere.

They also have a little selection of weird candies and old time candies. Everything is by weight, so you can mix and match and put whatever you want in the little bags.

The ONLY place to buy homemade chocolate in Birmingham! They've been at it since 2020 (and you know…read morewhat that means!)!!! Starting out a block east of Sidewalk Film Festival theater and Pizitz food hall, they have settled for now across the street from Birmingham Shambhala Meditation Center on the soft corner of Forrest Park, Avondale, Lakeview, and Highland Park. My favorites are the raspberry truffle or the Venus bar which is basically the same thing but flattened into bar form. I can only eat half a square at a time. Because it is SOOOO GOOD. Satisfying. I mean, it's the best. I'll guarantee your money back personally;) Follow your heart. Go with your gut. Is it milk, dark, or buttery white that calls to you? Do yourself a favor and indulge in the sipping chocolate while you shop. Available Thursday thru Sat, this delectable desire you didn't know you had FULL FILLED. Again, I'll pay you back if it doesn't work out. This melty supreme divine sauce just might change your life. And you deserve it.

This place caught my eye, and I'm so glad we checked it out! Everything in here looked so amazing! The man working here was nice too, and seemed to love his job. It would be hard not to with all these delicious treats surrounding you! We ended up getting candy cigarettes, crayon gum, and my absolute favorite which was the white chocolate caramel marshmallow pop! It looked good and immediately caught my eye when I was walking in. It tasted even better than it looked! It's a huge marshmallow bar covered in white chocolate. The prices are actually fairly decent too. I was expecting it to be pricy considering it's a specialty candy shop, but it was not bad at all. I will definitely be back here when I want to treat myself and also find gifts for others. It was a great experience!

Both places seem very fancy so it's a little intimidating shopping here. I got a hot chocolate with oatmilk. The other option was macademia milk. It was probably the fanciest hot chocolate I've ever had lol. It was bitter in taste and had these fancy marshmallows. I really liked it and it actually left me wanting more!

The vibe is simple and homey: check out the menu board, pick your peanuts, grab a beer, and sit back in anticipation. ​Since I couldn't make up my mind, I went with the sampler plate. The second I bit into the collard green brine peanut, it literally burst with flavor. I'm officially a changed woman and fully convinced boiled peanuts are the ultimate Alabama snack. ​My only tiny heads-up: the brine tasting station is a awesome idea, but a quick warning sign like "Careful with these bottles!" would be a lifesaver--I definitely managed to splash a bit on myself! ​Bottom line? The service was wonderful, the peanuts were incredible, and I'll definitely be dragging the rest of my friends back to this unique Birmingham gem.

I also think that this is a great place to just grab some peanuts, a cold beer or drink, and relax. The service is always so pleasant, and it is just a fun and relaxing atmosphere. My last visit, I went with my sister on a Saturday night while we were downtown, and we had such a good time. I will definitely have this as one of my regular casual hangout spots, as I always have the best time when I stop in. Their peanuts are also very tasty, and they have a super wide variety of choices. I love this place.

It's located right along 2nd Ave amongst all of the restaurant hubbub. Street parking, but if you're willing to take a stroll for a couple blocks, it's easy. This is one of the busier coffee shops in town, I would advise against seeking silence here. It's a shared space with "basic," a vintage clothing and art retailer which has awesome things made by local people. The people that worked there were so friendly. I came because I had to get that crème brûlée latte. It did not disappoint. One of the most delicious coffee drinks I've had in a long time. It tasted like a hug, perfectly caramel sweet, and fun to drink. It's not often that coffee gets turned into an interactive experience. The pastries looks great. The couch in the front window looked like an awesome spot to post up with some buddies. There were plenty of tables and chairs to work at. I will most certainly be back.

It is also nice to have fish selections so close to my home. The real deal is the meats. If you are looking for a bargain, you are in the wrong place. If you are looking for great quality, look no further. I am like a kid in a candy story when I walk in. I grew up in New York and this place comes closest to what I remember. Bravo to Evens and keep it up.

It is like a magical French bakery/general store, tucked away like a secret garden. Am I in south France or Birmingham? HARD TO TELL I don't know if I enjoyed the treats more or all the visual delights. The treats were just amazing. I brought my husband and all of my kids so we got a nice sampling of goodies from the cases. It was all perfection. Cookies were crispy on the edges, appropriately soft in the middle. The almond cake was buttery and sweet, but not too sweet. Muffins were excellent. The food is so well done. The ambiance here? Extraordinary. Every corner, every ceiling tile, every display has been so thoughtfully curated. This place was such a treat for my eyes and my imagination. I could sit for hours and just enjoy all the clever ways furniture is used. My kids played in the little play area- even that was done so beautifully! The store had such a wide selection of cute tea towels and little gifts. If you want to surprise someone with a beautiful little happy, or birthday gift, or Mother's Day gift, there's plenty to choose from here! I rarely buy things from little stores like this, but I purchased several gifts for girlfriends and my mom and an apron for myself. It's easy to get caught up!
