Cute cow bench outside if you'd rather wait while your loved one stocks up. Interesting to buy and also just to browse - I loved looking at all of the old fashioned candy boxes on the walls. Some Asian candies, mostly U.S. of A. A big attraction is the "seafoam" candy. Also they have merch, primarily the type of keychains and necklaces that have your name on them, and also a surprising amount of dog-related merch, including a bone-shaped dog toy and some cute signage. The staff were some of the friendliest we've ever encountered. They were so polite and eager and really seemed to enjoy their jobs.

Kind of a let down this visit to this beloved candy shop that we stop at every time we visit…read moreSeaside. Today the jelly belly's had not even half of the flavors that they usually have. We wanted caramel apples and asked if they had any and the girl said no. There was only a fruity pebble flavor and a white chocolate one. They are usually making candy apples and have plenty. It was busy but only 2 people working with one register open. We love this store because of all the nostalgic candies and fun gifts. The fudge assortment is great here but the line was way too long to wait for any of the candy in yen cases.

The service was so fast and friendly! The shop is an in and out (no seating available).

It's a sugar-slinging time machine. Shelves groan under the weight of taffy in colors that don't occur in nature and fudge dense enough to warp gravity. I had the ice cream. Two scoops. Marionberry Pie and Mountain Huckleberry. Both from Tillamook, which around here is less a brand and more a benevolent dairy cult. These berries are like edible postcards from the Pacific Northwest. One bite and you're knee-deep in a foggy forest thinking you hear Bigfoot weeping quietly from joy. Of course the prices are high. You're in a town where the beach views are free and everything else makes up for it. The real gamble is who hands you your scoop. Some of us got generous lumps the size of a toddler's fist while others looked like they'd been served a sample. Such is life in a democracy. The lines wound throughout the store, but it moved along at a respectable clip. People were smiling. Sugar does that. All in all, this is the kind of place that doesn't pretend to be anything other than what it is. A temple to nostalgia. A sanctuary for the sweet-toothed and sunburnt. Four stars. One star held in reserve for the day someone figures out how to standardize scoop sizes.

Giving this place 4 stars because they had soo many flavors here. Way more than you would get at a…read moretypical taffy store. For example they had dill pickle and chili mango. I believe it's around 8.99$ a pound. It does smell kinda bad in here and isn't the most clean. They do give you coupons when you spin the wheel which is fun. Employees are nice.

My family got the cookie dough, cotton candy (childhood favorite), and the wild mountain blackberry. We all enjoyed our cones and talked about how we would be returning every time we visit Seaside. The ice cream was good but the highlight of this experience was the lady helping us out. She was extremely kind and even gave us a little extra on each cone! Definitely give this place a shot!

Service is epic / I went with my two puppies at closing, and they took my order from the outside and brought it out for me - so accommodating and friendly! The S'mores are to die for - got the Sandy and the Classic - so much flavor, gooiness, not overly sweet, and even travel well since I walked back home with the pups and ate them later.

And for me, walking straight into Phillips Candies like a man fulfilling a sacred coastal tradition. This place has been around since 1897 and is actually the oldest continually operating business in Seaside, which honestly makes perfect sense the second you walk through the doors. First off, I absolutely love that they carry sugar free chocolates that actually taste good. That alone deserves applause. Then you add in the giant selection of candy, the homemade treats, the popcorn, the chocolate, the old school charm, and suddenly you realize you've been wandering around the store for forty five minutes carrying six pounds of snacks you absolutely did not plan on buying. I am a complete sucker for the white cheddar popcorn and the cheese popcorn. Throw in some Laffy Taffy and now we're talking about a full blown Seaside survival kit. Every single trip to the coast, I stop here and "accidentally" leave with enough candy to supply a small movie theater. The store itself is beautiful too. Bright, nostalgic, cozy, and full of that classic beach town energy that makes you happy just being there. It sits right near all the fun downtown, close to the arcade action and the heart of Seaside, so stopping in feels like part of the experience. The customer service is always fantastic, warm, welcoming, and patient with people like me who spend fifteen minutes debating popcorn flavors like it's a life decision. And somehow, even with the quality, it still feels like you get a good deal. Chocolates, candies, caramel corn, saltwater taffy, coffee drinks, sweet treats everywhere you look. No trip to the Oregon Coast feels complete without walking out of this place carrying a bag that's way heavier than you intended. Five stars all day long.

You can't sample the ice cream, there are no public restrooms, and there is no where to sit to eat…read more They offer a large assortment of flavors, mostly from Tillamook brand (which isn't a bad thing). The kids don't seem to mind and enjoyed themselves - it's just more of an inconvenience because our kids don't always know what flavor they want before trying and eat with a mess (easier to wash their hands afterwards). Not many other options in the area for ice cream, so it'll do for a cold treat if you know what you want, don't need to sit to eat, and then wash your hands.
