Olde Tyme Candy Shoppe Victoria — Local services in Victoria

Came on Victoria Day just for fun with my friends. Had an awful experience that I was really disappointed about. After paying, I waited for my friend to checkout and was confronted by two entering customers who thought we were associated with another group of people stealing. The assumption was made as we were all of Asian descent and around the same age. After leaving, a male employee who was not our cashier approached us while we were sat down and accused us of not only stealing candy which we did not have, but also the items we had paid for. There was no formal apology for the wrongful accusation, and he was very rude about his confrontation adding that it looked like we were “hanging out” with them. It’s a small store, might as well be “hanging out” with everyone in there. He only left us alone after we offered a bag search and transaction history. Also to note, he knew they were wearing tracksuits and still approached us anyways over our appearance (we were wearing jeans.) Overall, very disappointed after the entire experience and left feeling upset. Basically to sum it up, we were hate crimed and harassed over something we didn’t do and had proof that...

This little shop has a huge variety of unique treats from all around the world, in addition the staff are incredibly kind and helpful! I came here to get little treats to add to gifts for my family this Christmas, and I was able to find so many unique and wonderful treats for everyone, that catered to their specific interests, taste, humour, and even childhood treats for people who grew up elsewhere in the world. The perfect place to find specific gifts for the people in your life, or to grab some great treats you won't find anywhere else. Seriously, check this place out, I never leave reviews but just had to from my wonderful experience yesterday. Highly recommend, great job to the wonderful staff...

they're not transparent about how they price the fudge, from the signs they make it look like you're paying per pack of fudge (normal if the pack is sealed) but actually it's by weight when you get up to the front counter.

this allows them to list the price as 6.50/100g, but each pack actually has about 120g, so the actual price ended up being 7.50.

i imagine if i were to ask the cashier directly about how the pricing works, they would not lie to me. but they certainly arent making it obvious what the real price is which bothers me. nice store but tourist trap for sure. the fudge...
