For 3 years me and my boyfriend would regularly drive to this place just so that he could buy himself a milkshake. He’s a huge fan of their chocolate milkshake and during that time, i really liked their chocolate covered cherries/marshmallows. However, i also noticed how their staff seems to always, i don’t know dislike their job? They’re not friendly, don’t smile, or even give a simple “if you have any questions/need anything let me know” or a “have a good day” / “thank you”. It’s like they’re bothered by you. Yesterday we came back to this business after 3 months. The same thing. We don’t care if you greet us. People can have a bad day. But it seems like they ALWAYS have a bad day.

After my boyfriend was checked out, the lady behind the counter completely ignored me and proceeded to make the milkshake. That’s fine, she can come back when she’s done right?

But it really sours your mood when people are in the business of working with customers, yet lack that customer service. The customer isn’t always right. But i don’t believe I’ve ever done anything to this business to be...

One of the best things about them is the different types of salt that they use on top of the candies. Some of the types of salt are Himalayan Pink, Hawaiian Hiwa Kai, Cyprus Mediterranean Flakes, & 3 others. The caramel is soft, the chocolate isn't overly sweet, & the salt provides a nice crunch.
Kilwins also has a great selection of chocolate truffles. Some are filled with chocolate, some are filled with fruit flavored sweet cream, nuts, & even a champagne flavored filling. We opted to get a random assortment of the truffles. They are a little pricy, but you pay for the good quality of the products.
If you like homemade fudge, the plain chocolate is worth getting. The chocolate covered cherries, chocolate covered graham crackers, & toffee bars are also...
