Beachside Candy Co. - New Smyrna Beach

As an older gentleman, I was thrilled to discover that they carry some hard-to-find candies that I remembered from my childhood. I ended up buying quite a few to enjoy throughout the week and to share with my grandkids when I go home.

This restaurant is repulsive; the establishment is infested with cockroaches, and they roam freely over the chocolate in the display case. The owner seems indifferent to the presence of these pests crawling all over the candy. I strongly advise against visiting this place; if they were subjected to an unexpected health code inspection, they would likely fail.

As soon as we walked in, someone behind the counter shouted at us. My daughters and I were startled and quite confused. I'm not sure what kind of cruel joke this was, but we definitely won't be coming back. After the shouting incident, we thought about trying another place that seemed less "strange." Unfortunately, as we were leaving, a cockroach ran across my daughter's foot. I am appalled by this establishment and would not recommend anyone visit it!

Love the family friendly hometown feel of my little beachside town! Always a great place to take family after diner on Flagler Ave.

Finally discovered this place. Been coming to Smyrna for 33 years and didn't know for past 9 this yummy place existed. Will def be my go to spot for ice cream!
