“LOVE this place!! They have my favorite Canadian candy bars, as well as favorites from my youth. I also found some I haven’t had before that are now favorites. If there’s a candy you haven’t been able to find, I’d bet you’d find it here!”
“Such a fun little store.Has a good selection and reasonable prices for a niche candy store.The owner obviously has alot of creativity and the store is adorable as a result.”
“Very nice, friendly store owner. An amazing man who has been running this store since he was 18 years old. In addition to being able to use the restroom he helped me with transportation tickets and advised me on what to look out for. I also got a discount on Niagara Helicopters :)I regret that I had so little time, because I would have loved to talk to him longer. I'm glad there are such good people in the world.”

“Crystal Beach Candy provides Loganberry syrup for our coffee shop. We offer Loganberry Juice & a frozen option using the concentrated syrup, it is so good, When people see our customers with that dark purple frozen drink, they have to have it. If you haven't tried the waffles, you are missing one of the great snacks, crunchy and lightly powdered they are perfection.”

1744 Military Road Space #129, Niagara Falls“If you like Lindt, this place had all sorts of flavors and varieties. I picked up Easter Candy and some nice boxes to give as gifts. Having them individually wrapped is helpful during the pandemic. Once this is over though, I do think individually wrapped candies are wasteful, especially because they use shiny plastic or foil. I know the dull wax paper on tootsie rolls isn't pretty or shiny, but I don't feel guilty about the wrappers. It's bad enough you have have a guilt trip from the calories, but for me it adds on with the wrappers, so 4 out of 5.”
