Quaint little candy shop with the coolest history of candy from way back to current. It’ll bring you back to childhood & let you sample unique treats from history. Love the organic dark chocolate coffee bar worth the price! Great stop with kiddos on your trip or just for fun. Old school soda too.

This was a neat candy shop in historic Harpers Ferry. I liked how they labeled when each candy was made and had cultural significance for the candies. Each candy had a synopsis of which age it was created and they tied them to Harpers Ferry as much as they could. The only negative was that it was rather pricey, so I didn't buy much. I found it just as interesting to learn about the history as much as purchasing candy.

Worth a stop if you have a sweet tooth! They have a wide variety of treats, teas, fudge and even a little cinema in the back playing three stooges the day we visited. The customer service was great and the young lady was very helpful to all the other patrons. Small seating area, dog friendly, and a map on the wall to pin where you are visiting from.

Worth the visit!! There was a good selection to choose from and they even had candy that I haven’t seen since I was a kid and I was born in the 70’s!
