Every market needs a candy store for diversity. This is sugar heaven of your favorites, your forgotten favorites and your new favorites. My eyes went into a sugar coma when I saw 2 lb pucks of Reese PB Cups… I am NOT kidding. 2 f-ing pounds. It would take me weeks to eat that(and I love my Cups). The selection when all put together looks visually intriguing, however, it’s candy that you can get anywhere else. I am just a sucker for candy(pun totally intended).

Right in the heart of Pike Place: great scenery, fun atmosphere, awesome employees.(Yay Keith!) Yummy candy, too! Can’t beat the experience of Sweetie’s! Don’t pass it up.

Unilocal and all marketing materials state they are open till 6pm. Drove downtown, struggled dealing with traffic and the disaster that is parking(due to construction) and arrived with 15 minutes to spare. They were closed. Asked the people next door what time they usually close and they said it all depends. It was a slow day so they«thought» the shop might have closed around 5:15pm. WTF?! Don’t state you’re open till 6pm and then close early. Made me waste time, gas, and parking fee to find the place closed. Not a happy camper.

When I walk out of a candy bin store with nothing 1. The selection was measly and nothing caught my eye. 2. The selection was measly and nothing caught my eye. I do not discriminate on time of day so the fact that it was 11AM didn’t factor in my decision. I walked out therefore… Both 1. and 2. are correct. The shop is teeny tiny and feels cramped. They do have gummies, but honestly there was nothing I hadn’t seen before. A lot of supermarkets have bigger selections and the fun of the candy bins is having a tiny bit of everything. There was no «everything» here. I would have probably put one piece of candy in my bag so not worth it!

The only thing sweeter than the candy they sell here is the older lady who runs the shop. She has nothing but smiles and good cheer to dispense and just gives off the warmest grandmotherly vibe you’ll ever witness. I want to hug here everytime I stop by.(Is that creepy?) Sure their prices aren’t a bargain but you’re in the freaking Pike Place Market — what do you expect? Consider it a customer service tax.

Maybe I’m just a sucker for candy. I didn’t have a problem dishing out the $ 5 for 2 bags of the freshly made saltwalter taffy. I’m not sure if this is pricey, but considering that it is located in the market that it might be a little pricier. I’m sure that it may be the case for many of the shops located here, but I guess tourists like me know it and will buy anyways. There is other candy there as well in this small shop, but it will do for a supplemental sugar intake. The owner or store manager there seemed to be pretty friendly, and I ended up buying 4 bags. I came back to Chicago wishing I had bought more…

This is the priciest candy shop I’ve ever been to. $ 1.45 for every ½ lb? Walgreens has a better selection than this place. If you are looking for something unique as a gift or just an afternoon treat, this probably won’t satisfy what you are looking for. The selection wasn’t even that great. There is a much better one in Westlake Center.

Teeny, tiny candy shop on the lower level of the Market that’s always packed, though I’m not sure why. Half their stock is gone on a busy weekend and it’s run of the mill candy, even though I will always love looking at the swirly lollipops. It’s cute and the people are nice and there’s a great view from the window…
