We stopped by there for a wine and chocolate sampling. We grabbed a bottle and sampled some of the chocolates. We couldn't sample the truffles because they were to "expensive." Ok. So I asked her for a box of the honeycombs. They didn't have any. At first no explanation as to why just "we're out". We picked four turtle candies to purchase from the case and said we're ready to checkout. The lady working asked the wine person how much was the bottle. Wine person said it should be in your system. Cashier lady said "we don't have a system". Wine lady had to call someone to find out the price. Meanwhile we are standing there and we're like "we can wait you can take the next person". She replied back that she already rang it up I can't cancel it. So there we stood probably good five minutes as the wine lady tried to find out how much her own wine cost. There was one guy behind us who wanted to check out plus a few other people sort of walking around. So there we were waiting because Beerntsen Candies didn't have the wine in their non existent system. Eventually the lady did apologize for being out of the hineycombs, blamed it on the manufacturer of the candy as the pieces come broken she said. Well thanks for finally acknowledging the fact I wanted something specific and you were out.
The place just feels out of date and bare. I ended up buying some sugar whafers that we're dunked on chocolate and what a disappointment those were. I have a feeling that eventually this place is going to have to close it's doors because it really doesn't feel like it can survive...
Read moreJust a magical, charming candy store. Nostalgia the minute you walk through the door. A wonderful piece of Green Bay's history. The selection of candy is endless, there is something for everyone! Chocolate was a 10/10, loved the truffles and the chocolate dipped brownie. Gummy candy, hard candies, all fantastic! The pre-wrapped gift boxes were the perfect gift to take home to friends and family as souvenirs. This shop could be straight out of a Hallmark movie. The owner was very kind and welcoming. He gave us wonderful advice on the local restaurant and shopping scene and where the best places are to catch a game. Couldn't have had a better experience here, thank you, will miss...
Read moreI read a blog in must try places in Green Bay. A different chocolate shop was listed. I found this place while driving to the other. Beerntsen’s is far superior to the other place both in the taste of the product and the interaction with the people. The shop is beautiful and the owner is full of knowledge and is happy to share it. They have several awards. They make 90% of everything in the store. The chocolate and the caramel are divine. If you’re planning a trip to Green Bay this is a...
