I really like the vintage building they are located in, and everything is freshly painted and clean .... Cheers!

Grandpa Joes Candy Shop is an oasis of nostalgia, abundance, and fun! From the immediate brightly colored storefront, to rubber chickens decorating the ceiling, to walls of soda and candy options, you feel like... a kid in a candy store... OHHHH THIS IS WHERE THEY GET THAT PHRASE!!! We loved perusing the wall of sodas.. and of course, we took a selection home with us! The candy is over and abundant with current, pop culture references, and the nostalgic varieties that you didn't know still existed.. I grabbed the Sixlets as soon as I saw them!! Upstairs, they had a room full of board games because why not have everything fun all in one!! The place was absolutely pristine!! As soon as someone grabbed sodas, the staff was restocking them! Even the small candy shelves were constantly restructured because everyone picks up everything just to smile!! I can't wait to come back!

I would rate it higher, but the prices are insane, especially considering the vast majority of the selection can be had elsewhere or ordered online. Maybe the shipping price evens things out these days when factoring import fees? In any case, staff were friendly enough but also just kinda stood there. Not sure what I would expect them to do, but they weren't busy at the time. Store was clean but rather condensed as well with narrow walkways. The chocolate we did get was tasty. It's just not anything so unique that it can't be had elsewhere and for cheaper.

I ended up eating some ramen abomination that definitely was pure junkfood but was a fun one-time experience. The mango korean ice cream was nice. very creamy. Not crunchy at all with the shell of it like I had hoped. The carrot ice cream felt stale and was a bit boring to everyone except the kid in the party. It was just vanilla and the wafer was stale but fun to look at. There was also meat-looking ice cream bars that looked like crunchy fried chicken and also steak. I wish I had tried those instead. The ramen abomination was like $18. I'm not sure what possessed me to ingest it... maybe it was the strange videos advertising it on the screens where the elote was pumping in and out of the ramen container and causing it to overflow. Woof.

The deli offers sandwiches, and there are salads in the fridge. Some coffee/espresso offerings. Very cute and quaint, but definitely enough room to walk around inside and look at everything they have on their shelves to take home. I ordered the turkey sandwich and one of the garden salads. Everything was fresh and brilliant. Loved the apricot marmalade with the turkey! I will definitely come back here soon!

My first thought was that the store did not sell many candies, but then I looked more closely at the shelves, and I saw many chocolates that looked tasty! I saw chocolate-covered almond barks, cashew barks, raisin clusters, peanut clusters, coconut clusters, nuts, buttercreams, cherries, turtles, caramels, peanut butters, potato chips, pretzels, etcetera. This store also offered other businesses' treats such as candy bars, tootsie rolls, licorice, gummies, ice cream sandwiches, and even pierogies. This store also had a small restaurant area with seats and booths. The menu listed sandwiches, soups, ice cream sodas, sundaes, and milkshakes. My husband wondered about the "braunschweiger" sandwich. I asked the two employees what braunschweiger was, and an employee replied that the meat is made out of liver, but the teenaged employees could not operate the meat-slicing machine. I selected four small containers of chocolate-covered turtles, cherries, raisins, and pretzels. The total price was $39. The employee processed my payment, put my chocolates in bags, and thanked me. At home, I ate the chocolates. The turtles did not appear to contain much caramel, but all of the chocolates tasted very good.

Signature flavors of baklava include Traditional, Biscoff Cookie Butter, Chocolate Peanut Butter, Apricot Ginger, Amaretto, and Chocolate Hazelnut. Occasionally some special flavors, such as Quadruple Berry for July 4th, are available. Prices vary based on flavor and quantity, but one dozen costs about $23-25. Customers may either order baklava through the bakery's website or purchase baklava as a walk-in in the store. Nationwide shipping is available. I shopped at Sweet Tillies in-person one time. I met the owner Amy "Tillie" herself, and she kindly sold me one dozen assorted baklava, two of each signature flavor. Before I give you my rating for each flavor, please note that I learned from Greek ladies years ago how to make traditional baklava, and I have much experience with making it at a professional quality in very large quantities. In general, I thought that Sweet Tillies's phyllo was nicely crispy and layered with butter, walnuts, pecans, and other ingredients, and I appreciated the unique flavors. Traditional - 5 stars - This baklava tasted very sweet and nutty and had a little "kick" from cinnamon. Biscoff Cookie Butter - 5 stars - This flavor had a moderate Biscoff flavor and still tasted like baklava. Chocolate Peanut Butter - 5 stars - The flavor of peanut butter was strong, so the baklava almost did not taste like baklava, but I did enjoy it. Apricot Ginger - 4.5 stars - The apricot tasted subtler to me, and the ginger tasted stronger. Amaretto - 5 stars - This baklava had an amaretto flavor that took my tastebuds a moment to detect but tasted very good. Chocolate Hazelnut - 5 stars - This flavor might be my favorite. It looked like the chocolate-peanut-butter flavor but tasted totally different. The chocolate was subtle to me, and the hazelnut made the baklava taste a bit richer than the traditional flavor.

This year was my first time attending this farmers market. Vendors had set up tents and were selling vegetables, meats, fishes, eggs, breads, pastas, kombucha, olive oils, sauces, honeys, jams and jellies, prepared foods (e.g., pierogies, quiches, Greek foods, tamales and empanadas, snow-cones), alcohol, flowers, ceramic dishes, etcetera. My husband and I purchased a few items of food from two vendors. We could not do all of our grocery shopping here, but this farmers market was a decent size.
