Above and beyond. I was really not sure if this place was really worth going back to after my recent experience. However I know now that these owners truly do care about their business as well as there professionalism. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for phenomenal food and great service.

This place is an amazing store. Theres easy parking in front, which helps. When you go in, they have an amazing variety of candy, chocolate, ice cream, etc. So much that you would get lost looking for specific items, except that its so well organized that you can find anything you need in just a second.The entire left side of the store has candies by weight, which is great for parties. The right side has lots of chocolates, even non dairy available. They have great displays of trays to give as gifts already set up and ready to go.They also have tons of specific larger candies, which are great for kids prizes.The back has a great wine selection, with good pricing and wide variety. Theres plenty of sweet, dry, aged, French, etc. Wines to choose from. They have great customer service as well, the employees know the prices, and are very helpful if your looking for something specific. They also have soft serve ice cream and slushy drinks. Its a fun place to shop, great for special occasions, good for even just a little pick me up, and amazing place to bring your kids.

The store ia clean, neat, service is good; however, the candy supply is minimal. Im sure its due to the pandemic, & I hope they do stock a lot more variety as they used to have.

Every childs dream, the ice cream is superb. I only give four stars, since it does get a bit pricey some times.

My sister introduced this to me, I vowed that I will let my other friends have a taste of this sinful dessert. It was quite expensive but it was all worth it! Heaven!! One must try!

I can not say enough about how great I though Diane was in entertaining my kids on the different candy and chocolates. I have two boys, 10 and 11 and she had them enthralled with her knowledge and excitement. We live far away, but cant wait to go back to CA to visit. Munchies will be one of our first stops.

A gift was sent to my family for Hanukkah. It arrived with bugs in it (or something very wrong - take a look for yourself). I called the owner with the request that he reimburse our friend who sent it to us directly from Munchies. The owner responded by berating me (how dare I accuse him of sending bad candy!), and escalating the conversation to his hanging up on me. All that I was asking is that he reimburse the person who paid for it (who wasnt me). I never asked for anything more - no replacement, credit or anything. I spoke in a tone that was firm, clear and professional. It made me wonder, had I been a man, if I would be treated differently. Munchies is not Menschlekeit. This kind of customer service is deeply problematic, resembling something that makes Jews look bad.

Welcome to the neighborhood - what a fantastic addition. What a happy, fun store and Diane, the owner, could not be more welcoming. You must try the olive look alike candies. The best. It was very nostalgic seeing so much candy from my childhood.A must visit!

I had the best experience here! I came in looking for candy options for a shower I am hosting. The girl was so sweet and knowledgeable! I left with a few sample options and will definitely be coming back for more! Great customer service!

When you get a sweet tooth and need a serious sugar Munchies is your destination! All their sweets are made with real sugar and contain no high fructose corn syrup! I also love the fact that they label each candy with allergy information. So you can easily avoid gluten,soy,dairy, and gelatin. The layout is clean and theres always an employee there that can help you.

I think this is the most amazing candy store I have ever been too. It was awe inspiring. Ive never seen such a huge space so well kept devoted entirely to selling candy. We found everything you could think of and left happy.

Very friendly service. My family enjoyed coming in on Saturday and picking out special candies. The lady (I cant remember her name) was so helpful and super nice. We felt very comfortable in the store. She made our kids visit special. She explained where the candy was made without all the dyes and chemicals. The candy is imported and tastes pretty amazing. The watermelon sour gummies are awesome.

The place is clean and the staff very helpful. The lady there answered all my questions and there are blurbs next to the candy explaining what everything is. The candy itself is delicious. Lots of variety. I hope this store is around for a long time.

Beautiful candy store and my new go when picking up a little something for a dinner party or childrens birthday! In addition to candy they have beautiful Eco gifts from Sweden!

One of the greatest places to purchase candy if youre looking for a new place to visit. If you are a candy lover you should definitely visit this location which has rested here for at least 10 to 20 years, minimum. I really like theyre sour candies the most specifically the sour patches ( red ones). they also serve ice cream which comes out of the machine. They also have ice cream that is not from the machine and has a very strong supervision all certificate for people that keep high standards of Kashruth.

The store is quite clean and they have several licorice based candies. I love how there are several note cards with descriptions for most of the foreign candies. The best part is that they have organic elder flower soda!!!

Prices range from $2.99 to around $9.99 per half pound of candy. They have an excellent selection of all kosher candy. Honestly, if you didnt know it was kosher, you probably wouldnt. The candy is very mainstream in appearance and taste. The price is on the higher side, but not crazy for this type of store. They also have lots of prepacked goodies and you can do special orders for parties or galas (little goodie bag party favors or candies on the tables...)

Took my daughter to Munchies on Friday early afternoon and met an Infect owner being a Tyrant with his female employee, an impolite business owner, who takes his customers for granted, not returning their Hellos and only asking for their $$$. Im hesitating to report that person for threatening me to shoot me in the Face after throwing my daughters candies on the floor and making racial discrimination. Greatest CHILLOUL HASHEM ever

Wanted to buy $6.50 worth of candy, came to the counter and guy said that theres a $10 credit card minimum. Gave the guy a debit card and he insisted on the minimum (minimums are illegal for debit cards) I told him hes legally not allowed to do that. He grabbed the bag and threw it onto the counter in angrily.

You have just lost a good costumer for 10cents bag!Those people are unbelievable!!

Munchies is a very nice store its only to bad that they dont have costumer service, they treat you like they dont need your business,i was waiting in the store to get an ice cream, for 15 minute, the worker kept on telling me i will be right with you for 4 times and the worst is that the owner is playing with his phone instead of asking me if he can help me.when i complain to the owner, instead of apologizing, he scream at me that i am standing there for nothing. and ask me never to come in his store again.
