Loved it! They reminded me of my youth. So many different candies and pops. I think I spent an hour just admiring and checking out everything they have (my pocket book was a little lighter when I left....lol).

This place is great. A selection of drinks and candy you wont find anywhere else. They can also let you know when an out of stock item comes in. Which is really helpful when they run out of Harry Potter chocolate frogs which are my wifes favorite.

They have some amazing candies and novelty sodas that you havent seen since you were a kid. Theres a lot of variety and its just such a fun atmosphere. The BAD thing is that everything is highly marked up and not really affordable.

All the old school candy is stocked and literally ANY flavor soda you can think of they have it.

Review №11

Great selection with old school candy and original items. Plenty of soda with many cold to choose. There is a self serve bin candies ( mostly taffy) that is a pretty good deal, overfill the bag if you get some. Friendly staff that is there helping you if you need it. There isnt any fresh chocolate, and is probably the only thing missing here.

If you are into rare classic or modern day candies, sweets, and high quality hard to find sodas from back in the day to today, then this is the place for you. The selection of each category is extensive, so there is something here for everyones taste, young and old. Also sold here are novelty items and knik-knaks you wont find anywhere else. They even sell hard to find imported candies and chocolates from Europe and other countries. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. I like this store a lot. I believe you will too. A very kid friendly place...kids of all ages.

There was an issue recently with the store brand sodas not tasting right, but the owner got right onto resolving the problem. Otherwise a really nice place. Clean, interesting, well stocked, and the prices are alright. I like the short shelving - it makes the store feel bigger and less confining. Employees have all been nice.

Review №28

My grandkids were super exicited about going to check this place out. He stated it was not what he expected. I asked him why then he stated I thought it would be more colorful. Funny I thought the same thing. Lots of choices on off the wall sodas and candy!!! Prices are higher than others but not as fun.

As a film student, it is really hard to find locations and people willing to work with our low-budget, student productions. The owner and the Rocket Fizz employees were gracious enough to let my film production and crew take over their store one morning to shoot a scene for my senior thesis project. Not only was the owner more than willing to help us out, he was happy to do so! This is one of the best Rocket Fizz locations i’ve been to in Colorado!

What a fun place to stop and find unique sodas and candies! The staff is great, and the selection is a lot of fun. Check out their wall of sodas..there are some fun and unusual sodas to check out that will make you laugh. We love to stop here with our kids for a treat...and its really great if you want something unusual for a party or special event. They have a HUGE selection of salt water taffy in neat flavors...youll buy more than you planned to.

This place is AWESOME! I would say one of the coolest candy companies here in Colorado Springs. I love all of the throwback candies and all of the eclectic things this store has. The staff were extremely helpful and very friendly! Prices were great and as for busy as the store was we didnt wait in line for long! I definitely checking this place out, especially if you are looking for a specific candy you can not seem to find in any local stores.

I basically live here. My friends and I probably produce about 10% of this stores profit. Probably not. But we go there quite a bit. I can tell you about pretty much any soda there. Great staff, too. Super great place. 6/5

Great candy shop stocked with candies and sodas that I swore have long been out of production! That said, they also have an amazing selection of gag items like ranch flavored soda and a line of drinks named after communist leaders!

Review №45

This store is simple, and that is a GOOD THING. You walk in and see everything, tins line the walls, chocolate and various candy on the shelves and islands and soda everywhere. You walk in, see what you want, grab it, pay, and leave. It just works.Also every Christmas we get my dad some tins with vintage Coca Cola ads or WW2 propaganda on it to decorate his wall and they are great.

My husband and I just love coming here. The staff is excited and knowledgeable. There is a lot to look at and you will definitely fall into the do you remember these pattern. The candy is fresh and not been sitting on the shelves for years, even the lesser known candy. Fantastic business, great people, and fun to just wander.

This place is the best sugar fix. I am able to find hard to find drinks including ones that are locally made in the state. They also have a small selection of foreign candy which I always have to try. Its a fun place and a place you can get a gift for any sweet tooth.

My husband and I were visiting Colorado Springs for our honeymoon from Austin, TX. We dont have one close to us so we stopped in. The guy there named John was super nice and very helpful! We went back a couple days later and he was there again. I was telling him that I love the Taffy but my favorite flavor was out. He pulled out a Basket from under the register and pulled out a hand full of my favorite flavor! He then gave us a honeymoon discount!! The staff there is totally awesome but always ask for John!!!

This place is incredible! Every candy you can possibly imagine, and then some. From all countries! And, bottled soda in flavors you wouldnt ever imagine! If you ever need a gift for someone and have no ideas, come down here. Just give yourself at least an hour to see it all. Its crazy!

Review №51

A wide array of exotic candies that span from retro to international. A surprisingly knowledgeable staff (who knew there were so many ways to color & flavor HFCS?!) who are very friendly and welcoming. Veteran discounts apply. Punch cards buy 10/get one free for the dozens (hundreds?) of different flavors of soda they have lining the walls of the store. Candy by the pound, novelty gifts, and wall tins/signs for sale.

Wonderful experience! I just moved back home from college and Im getting to know my community again. I work close to here and come in for energy drinks at night and the young man that works there is always so nice and courteous! Check out their unique candy and drinks! Its a great place for some last minute stocking stuffers ideas!

I love Rocket Fizz!!! This location doesnt disappoint, they have a fantastic assortment of craft sodas, old ball candies and nostalgic tots and decor. The staff is friendly and the prices are fair. I used to go to their original location in Camarillo, CA. Im so happy theyve grown as much as they have, its a great idea.

I love getting retro sodas from the world market or Albertsons and trying different flavors even have gone to coke a cola world to try their 100+ different flavors from around the world so I was super excited to find out about this place and went and bought 2 six packs from here... After trying all twelve different flavors they all tasted disgusting and most had a cough syrup during and after taste.... Ill stick to the world market =( depressed this wasnt what it was hyped up to be. Generic great value soda from most supermarkets beats what ever rocket fizz is doing in their bottling plants
