Mrs Kibble’s Olde Sweet Shoppe

Good old traditional style shop selling the kind of bon bon your parents remember. The strawberries are my favourite and then lemon but today. They ran out… Omg…
So after speaking to the lovely sales assistant and 3“other Bön bons down the line. I chose the raspberry and lemon mix cause you can do that too.
Looking forward to nibble on them…

Lovely old-​fashioned store selling all traditional favourites.
Perfect place to get a small present for anyone in your life who, like my mum, loves candy. You can get everything packed in jars, or go for the basic transparent bag: either will be packed very carefully and look lovely.

There are a few Mrs. Kibbles’ locations around town. We visited recently with the hope of finding some plain old peppermint candy canes for Christmas as no other normal sort of shop seems to have them this year.
Hoorah! Success! 3 different options, even! Christmas is saved!
Great staff and fab selection of all the old faves as well. Grab yourself some cola cubes while you’re there. :)

I’m in love! The raspberry bonbons are to die for. Very addictive!!!

I like this place for its varied English style candies at a decent price.
Both pre-​packaged and also sold by weight.
I had a small piece of Turkish delight, which I haven’t had in years.
Very fresh and tasty.
I also picked up a nice hard-​shell, soft center courrant candy package for about $ 5 pounds. Nice place to pick out some gifts. Very friendly and helpful service.

Tempting & delightful atmosphere for any children & teens.
A good collection of sweets with good quality.
Really friendly staff.

I love this shop, all the old fashioned sweets you can dream of. Buy by the gram or in prepacked bags/​jars. You can get anything from nerds to bon bons, wham bars My favs are the mini eggs.

If you like old fashioned sweets from gobstoppers in jars, sherbert, flying saucers and all kinds of great sweets this lovely place is for you.
Friendly and lovely !

Decisions decisions decisions! And I haven’t even got to the sweets yet!

Having carefully studied the shop itself and referring back to my lessons on grammar, I’ve decided to review under this listing! Hooray Monica R — we agree on the spelling!
Well, you can imagine this shop right at the end of the Willy Wonka factory tour. Rows upon rows of clear jars containing old style sweets. The assistants are happy to advise and offer little tastings. Your choice of goodies are packaged in retro style paper bags to take away and share.
Whether you’re looking for some nostalgia about the sweets you grew up with or to discover some new taste sensation, Mrs Kibble’s is definitely worth a visit.

I have a feeling that this place might not have been around for as long as it would like you to think. In fact I almost doubt the existence of Mrs Kibble herself, it almost seems like someone may be casting themselves in the image of master married lady chefs of the past, Mrs Beeton anyone? I apologise if it isn’t but the work of an imposter this could well be.
Either way I guess it’s just good branding. This place is designed in the style of an old fashioned sweet shop selling mostly favourites childhood and a few more recent specials. I like their pear drops and some of lemon sours although I reckon their bonbons, wine gums and gobstoppers are the house favourites. Everything is sold out of big jars and weighed out to measure — nice n careful.
I’m not the most dedicated sweet lover in the world but as a novelty sort of place this is nice. Probably a good present for your kids especially if you are also nostalgic about false teeth ;p

What would dentist do without this type of shops? It is thanks to the sugary confections sold in candy shops that our teeth get sad and weak. But hey no one can take away that joyous moment when you pop a bunch of popping candy in your mouth, yum! Mr. Kibble is a classic old-​fashioned temptation temple. Even from the outside it’s like a mini Wonka factory and once you are in the colors of the candy in display are dizzying and tempting. They have around 180 varieties of candy in stock and a really friendly staff ready to please your sweet tooth.

Down the quaint and narrow St Christopher’s Place, this is a little pristine, neat, and, well, sweet shop with a white interior offset by jars of colourful sweets. There are mint humbugs, licorice allsorts, gobstoppers, those flying saucers made of rice paper with sherbet inside, toffees, aniseed balls, barley sugars, marshmallows, candy cigarettes, bubble gums, the multicoloured puffed rice you used to get for toy sweetshopsa child’s delight, albeit smartened up for the area and appealing to us oldes with its selection of sweets from the past. It even has things from a decade or so ago which I thought had disappeared, such as Jawbreakers and the Double Decker chocolate bar, and grown-​up sweets like the Dutch salt licorice. I embarrassed my young companion by squealing with delight as I drooled at every shelf. The only pity is it’s too small, but it holds a lot of sweets for its size and you would need many trips and teeth of steel to taste each jar’s delights.
