Rocket Fizz Soda Pop and Candy Shop

Really neat place for every candy and soda you could ever dream of having, I’m sure it’s here!

I was surprised to see such great reviews. Then I read the one with a one star and was relieved that it wasn’t just me. I went in with my 2 and 4 year old and must say they were pretty well behaved. I went to ask the lady behind the counter for a special item we find in some candy shops. She was dreadful. She looked at me awkwardly and shook her head no. No friendliness whatsoever. Not even proper customer service. I get that not everyone is friendly but at least be cordial. We walked out with nothing because I felt so awkward. And my kids didn’t even fuss about it. Two stars for having cool stuff. Not a business we will support though.

This place is all kinds of fun. Bacon soda? French fry lip balm? Moses action figures? How can you not enjoy this place? It’s always fun to walk through here and see what they added. Strangely, they also have back issues of comics. Just a few, so it’s extremely hit-​or-​miss. It gets crowded easily, so keep that in mind if you’re claustrophobic. All in all, it’s a cool store. Check it out!

You’re a candy store. I know you’re really catering to midlife crisis yuppies who are trying to re-​live their childhoods. I get that. However, kids like candy too.
I took a 12 year old, a 6 year old, and a 3 year old into the shop. Since they were in a candy store there was a lot of «I want…» from them but they weren’t grabbing things off the shelves or licking the candy. From the looks the lady at the counter was giving them you would think those kids were shoving candy in their pockets hand over fist.
I’m serious, that woman glared at my kids the whole time we were in there. It made me and my wife uncomfortable. When the kids picked out what they wanted, my wife took them outside while I paid for the candy. The woman barely even grunted at me while I made the purchase.
Even if I found myself back in the area, I will never find my way back in that shop.

Where do I start? First, they have hundreds of sodas. Literally everything from your run of the mill Coca-​Cola to Toasted Marshmallow Soda. For key lime pie enthusiasts, there’s Aunt Mabel’s Key Lime Pie Soda, which is really good. They also have an assortment of candies such as taffy, hard candies, and Japanese candies. This is THE PLACE to go for candy and soda.

This is a must-​see store. It is worth stopping and seeing all the variety of edibles, drinkables and decoration that is displayed in such an way that you want to see every nook and cranny. There is a hard-​working human quality that comes from the past in a lot of the products. Yes, products that were not questioned as to whether they were made in USA. If only all those products were produced here, that would be really cool. Still love the store’s intent of bringing this stuff back to see!
The past is intriguing because of the way people expressed creativity in their product marketing/advertising.America was getting to where we are now. Now, we are here.?Therefore I love seeing a store like this. This store practically seems to have most anything you have not seen for quite «a while», if you have been around for «a while.» Refreshing…

Finally a store that «Gets» me. Takes me back to the age I still feel inside. What a great, fun store, All of the old favorites from my childhood and many regional candies from all over the country and the world that you can discover. Just love this whimsical store.

Pretty extensive selection of candy and sodas from around the world. Hundreds of sodas of all flavors. Literally dozens of varieties of some, like cream sodas or root beers. Kind of expensive. I know a lot of stuff is imported, but their Japanese selection is generally twice as expensive as the same stuff in San Francisco. And as cool as some of this is, it’s really tough paying $ 3.29 for one small candy bar. Lots of stuff, both candy and non-​edible, straight out of the Archie McPhee catalog. Still well worth checking out.

Love it! A fantastic assortment of candy, including a bacon section, Japanese candy section [bought quite a lot, was delicious], even a small bulk area. Their soda selection is HUGE! Definitely recommend.

Wildly wonderful cavalcade of old time candy, imported candy, wacky soda pops and things silly. This is a must stop!,

Takes me back to my childhood. Great selection of candy that I haven’t even thought about in 20 years plus more sodas then you can shake a stick at.

This store demands time to give all the candy and soda a good once over. Everywhere you look there are little corners waiting to be discovered of novelty candy from yesteryear (remember the hot dog chewing gum) or the latest craze. Ginger Ale is one of my favorite drinks and the selection is fantastic. If you like root beer this is also the place to go.
Of course no respectable candy store would miss out on the wowza/​gross factor so there are bacon, ranch and wing sauce sodas for the more adventurous.
This is a fun place to come for a sugar high.

Kiddo was as happy as a kid in a candy store! (Haha!) Rocket Fizz is a chain, but they’ve got a good selection of candies and sodas. We had to walk around and check everything out before making final selections, and he had to make some tough choices, but he was grinning ear to ear the whole time. And, the cashier guy even gave him a sticker and a free lollipop! Purchases here can get a little expensive depending on what you choose, but they also have quite a few reasonable things. We got quite the haul of candy for just under $ 20. And, not all of it was for Kiddo!

The selection is amazing, every soda you can imagine is found here. Im enjoying trying a different cream soda each time I visit. The retro candy is very fun to see and as one reviewer already pointed out, its generally only found online. The store is very nicely decorated and well kept, its also a fairly large location. My only complaint is that some of the retro candy is a bit pricey. Im sure the store isnt making much off of it so its not there fault. Its a must see for people visiting Fort Collins.

i came to town looking for beer and stumbled upon the most amazing thing. the largest soda store i have ever seen. Not the everyday soda pops here, mountains of regional and specialty sodas that you never see. I saw a few that I have only heard of. Cheerwine from North Carolina, Averys from Connecticut, Ale 8 from Kentucky. they probably had several hundred different sodas to choose from and most of them probably use real sugar and better than average ingredients. If you like soda, this is heaven. (and the imported and retro candy was a pretty amazing selection as well)

I was ecstatic to find this place. They have candy I could only get online or in Estes Park. The selection is outstanding and the service is good.
