Sweet Dreams Candy Co — Local services in Newport

The only reason this is a 2-star rating is the young lady at the register was nice and my sweets were good. Two other workers are why I will NOT be returning. We were in line and the guy was waiting on customers until we stepped up. He walked away, and began just leaning against a counter. Then he turned his back to us and began chatting with a guy beside him. A female worker walked toward us, lifted her head upward, looking over us, and asked all the customers BEHIND us “who’s next?” I spoke up first and politely said “we were next in line” but she ignored me. Then my husband said “we were next” and she ignored him. At that point the guy who first snubbed us decided to wait on us. We should’ve walked out and spent our money where we were welcome. If people in customer service don’t want to serve EVERYONE regardless of their race, nationality, or gender they should be FIRED! As a previous review stated…they DO NOT need to be in customer...

Poor selection. Way over priced. For example, the poppin cooking sets are double the price they are everywhere else (these are available at meijer and jungle jims for 5$ are 10$ at the store). The taffy, they are charging twice as much as what the actual company that makes them charge.

1 pound of candy for 21 dollars is a joke. The candy is kept in open containers that are not air tight so the result is dried, old candy.

The employees are rude and under paid so they couldn't care less about you or helping you. Overall you'd be better off not wasting your money at this store. You could literally get the same candy cheaper at the kroger down the street. Or if you fancied a trip, Jungle Jims a grocery store has way more candy and they don't rip you off.

For the record, I did make a purchase. Also the fudge isn't that great, maybe at one point it was . Not...

This shop is very clean and organized. The staff seem to be in a good mood, but they seemed to be in a rush to be done helping me. They seemed to rush me in picking out my 6 selections of fudge, and hurrying to cash me out even though they weren't that busy. They have a decent selection of sweets, something for everyone. The fudge was pretty good, not too sweet. The peanut butter candy bar was okay, but i liked the pb&j one more. The prices were pretty high, and you don't get a whole lot for your money, but once in a while would be worth the try. Highly recommend at least once to try and see...
