Today Waggoner chocolates chose to break the law and not allow a trained service dog into their store. My friend and I had just been to a local restaurant and Sam's club where her service dog was allowed with no problem. My friend had to sit in her car and hold her dog for support before she drove home because she was so upset her ptsd flared after going back in the store to make a purchase and to hear staff and visitors saying her dog was not a legitimate service dog.

I had tasted their candy before when my sister order a few different pounds from this store a few years ago. It was really good. Being able to go to the store in person and pick exactly what you wanted was even better. I visited this store on Nov. 7, 2022 and it was beautifully decorated with Christmas items everywhere. I will make it a point to visit this store again even though its 4 hours away from where I live...
   Read moreI went here today in search of Chocolates for Valentines Day! It was my first time in the store and I found the woman at the counter to be kind, helpful and friendly! She even showed me the no sugar added section! I am a diabetic, so that was also very helpful! She showed me the gourmet chocolates and I picked out some for my wife! She packaged them up very nicely and offered me a sample while she did so! As I said, I'm a diabetic! So I have a unique perspective when it comes to sweets! Folks, that sample set this place in stone! That was absolutely delicious! And dare I say, worth the Spike in blood sugar! now have a custom picked box of chocolates for my wife and I'm very happy!
