Granite State Candy Shop — Local services in Manchester

In my quest for the most delicious and "true to its form" Frappe, I found this oasis amongst the cement jungle that is downtown Manchester. I had to restrain myself from indulging in the variety of candy that was available. From classic candies to gourmet chocolates, I ran the gauntlet to the ice cream counter. There I was met with a bevy of ice cream flavor choices as well as specialty sundaes and frappes. Trusting my instinct I went with a classic chocolate frappe. For $5 I got the largest frappe I've gotten to date. For $5 I got the most perfect ice cream to milk to malt consistency since Steven Poplawski invented to blender. For $5 I got the most delicious frappe I've had in a very long time, certainly in this area.

Aside from my over exaggerated story, this place is legit. The Frappe was delicious. The staff were so much fun to interact with. I'm coming back this weekend...

My boyfriend and I had been wanting to stop by here for awhile since moving down the street 2 years ago. We made our first and unfortunately now only visit just a few days ago. Seemed like your usual candy and chocolatier shop with a large selection. There were two ladies working the day we came in, one we appreciated for her upbeat attitude, the other seemed like she hated every minute of being there. We only asked her if they had carried a couple items we were interested in and she responded with 1 word answers, pointed to where to find them, in a matter as if they were the dumbest questions in the world and that we were bothering her. Mind you, we were the one people in this candy shop on a Friday afternoon at 2PM. We still reluctantly made purchases as I was having a sweets craving but we left as soon as we could after this...

I was very impressed with this candy shop. They had very reasonable prices and a large variety of candy, chocolates, and fudge. The best part for me was the fact that they not only served ice cream, but it was of good quality and very fairly priced. They have a good variety of flavors of hardserve, and for just ice cream they have up to large which is 4 good size scoops. If you want a sundae, the large is 3 scoops and you get all the topping you want for no extra charge. I ended up getting a large sundae with what must have been a cup worth of topping, and it was less than 8 dollars. It would have been even cheaper if I got the four scoop large of just ice cream at around 5 dollars. I left extremely impressed and satisfied with this shop, and I look forward to going...
