Reviews of Old Market Candy Shop

Christina Greenhill

One stop shop for all your candy and chocolate covered needs!!! The owner is super friendly and does great work. Just ordered some last minute strawberries for a friends birthday and he did amazing job in a short amount of time! I come back year after year!

Tracy McCarthy

This was my first time visiting the candy shop and wow, what an experience. The staff was so nice and let us try a few items, like the espresso covered chocolate. Highly recommend the mudd balls if you love oreos. What a declious treat.

Laura Bogenrief

All your favorite candies PLUS in house made chocolates- what more could be asked for or wished? And you could taste! HIGHLY recommend the chocolate covered cherries and amaretto balls. We enjoyed our stop and the wonderful service!

DeLana

Mud balls. Uhhh-mazing! It's been years since I've had one. Got a few yesterday and they're just as good as ever. Reasonably priced too! Love that they also have a good selection of sugar-free chocolate options!

Anita Hewitt

Love the candy shop! Stop by and pick out some of their awesome fudge. You can get a sample along with some other goodies at the counter!

Trisha Cain

Can't find these where I live at, and they are my fav! Definitely worth the 5 hr drive along sit seeing as well! There fudge is amazing! Over all great experience! Very nice people!

Chris Ruhaak

Always an amazing place to visit to quell my sweet tooth. Certainly worth a visit when in the Old Market. A plethora of goodies selections.

Austin Mead

Their homemade candy creations are out of this world. Every time my wife and I are downtown we always have to stop and pick up some mud balls

Skylar Ma

The mud balls have become a serious pregnancy craving of mine! Made my husband go 30 minutes to the old market just to get some goodies! Pricing is really good and my toddler loves getting to pick her treats out of their awesome selection!

Jon fair

Mikey Kroeger

Super fun place to shop. Can you find all of your old favorites?

Chris Redding-Wagner

Oh. My. Gosh. You have to go there and try the "chicken legs!" I bought a dozen for my office and it wasn't super expensive. What an awesome treat for my colleagues! And the customer service is fantastic!!!

Matthew Nerz

Best Candy shop in Nebraska! True masters of there craft and on top of that excellent customer service.

Lisa Meyer

Good prices. Delicious chocolates and AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! I think it was the owner and he was sooo helpful and nice! Did I say GOOD prices?! I mean AFFORDABLE prices! Holy cow!

Flower Girl

Great place! Love the vintage look. Easy walk from area hotels. Delicious!

Chad Colfack

Staff was super friendly and the truffles and fudge are delicious. Lots of fun candy for the kids too

Sue Cavanaugh

Wonderful selection of homemade candies and nostalgic candy. Mike the owner is awesome and he has a great staff!

Jay Fluehr

With a scrumptious selection of candies made in-house, and super friendly service, this is a must-stop in the Old Market. Real candy shops like this are few and far between.

Jenna McDaniel

When you walk in you feel like you jumped back in time. The staff is so kind. When my two small children and I walked in we were greated with "Why hello there! I have something here for you!" And he so kindly walked my children over to a wall of candy with a smile. They have so much candy and homemade fudge and taffy and so on so forth! Would HIGHLY recommend stopping in for a treat and a friendly conversation. I gave it 5 stars for a very good reason. Thank you Old Market Candy Shop for such a pleasent visit!

Ryan McCann

This shop is charming and the staff are very friendly. You'll definitely find something there to satisfy your sweet tooth. I really like their salted caramel chocolates and their truffles. But they have a number of classic and modern candies too. Definitely worth your while.

C S

This is the best chocolate in Omaha, for sure. They have a great selection, and every piece is delicious. Also, delicious is an understatement. The fudge is amazing too. It is also very reasonably priced for how high quality the chocolate is. The staff is always friendly and it’s a nice place to stop in for dessert. I’d recommend to anyone who likes chocolate (and who doesn’t?) to stop in and try OMCS.

mrroboto396

An excellent example of a "small home town" candy shop. There is a limited stock of old fashioned style packaged candies, but the main event is the glass cases filled with chocolate treats made on site. They have a modern point-of-sale system that makes purchases easy and the staff are exceedingly friendly.

Zach Kunde

Old Market Candy Shop! My favorite part of Omaha! I was in town for a family wedding and Google, in its infinite wisdom, led me to The Old Market. First stop was the Candy Shop. The most warming, honest, greeting I've ever received upon walking into a business. They truly put the customer first and there care is immediately apparent. Your first step in feels like childhood, and you're holding a golden ticket. Beautiful storefront inside and out. The selection is vast and the taste is purely unmatched in the chocolate/fudge business. The owner, Mike, was happy to share his story and give us background on the history of the establishment. Mike spoke with pride in his business, and rightfully so, as each item we purchased we savored, immensely. If you only have time for one stop at The Old Market, make it this place!

amy frederick

Always a wonderful experience we try and visit the store every time we are in Omaha. Everyone should take their kids to the Candy Shop it's a magical experience for them and a little nostalgic for moms and dads! I have used them for company gifts too - They mailed a huge box of fudge gift packages across the state for me at Christmas. The gifts were a huge hit and something unique that no one else was doing.

Ivy Alexander

Each time we're in the area, we make it a point to stop in. Seriously, the best popcorn! Super friendly, helpful staff. I'd like to see more focus on house made items...like peanut brittle, candied apples, popcorn balls, maybe candied bacon and less novelity items but it's still a great shop.

Christy

Visiting from Dallas and stopped by this gem! Chocolate was incredible….specifically the best seller mud pies. The young lady that helped us was knowledgeable as well.

Exit Cat

As you step in through the doors you're immediately greeted with a smile and feel like you're welcomed instantly. Everyones favorite place to feed their sweet tooth craving. Hand made to perfection, crafted with hard work and passion. Plenty of options so you'll find those cravings the satisfaction they've been craving. Give this place a try and make some new memories with your kids and loved ones. Definitely the spot around Valentine's day!

Denine O'Neal

Visiting from Alabama and just happened upon this place! Owner is awsome and so helpful. Lets you try candies before buying. You will not be disappointed.

Amy ONeil

Love this place. Half the store is a mix of classic and modern packaged candy, but everything inside the display case (fudge, truffles, chocolate candies) is hand made in the shop. You can tell this pretty quickly because you can usually see one of the confectioners at work. There's a markup on the branded candy, but the chocolates are very reasonably priced and you can buy them individually. Our faves are: the peanut butter fluff cups, the pecan or and almond turtles, the chocolate covered caramels and the truffles.

Fabiola Delgadillo

Awesome place to visit. We loved their variety of candy.

I G

Excellent service! Over the Holidays we had to make many orders but needed them spontaneously, and they always came through! Had our orders ready to go and everything was so delicious and well made! High quality and excellent taste! I recommend them 100%!!

Chris Simonson

Richard Zinno

Mark Morello

Shandelle G

Very cool place to check out in the Old Market!! They've got all of your favorite candies from your childhood here as well as much, much more! Super neat place to walk through too! Definitely worth stopping in!

Fred Anderson

Great selection. Good prices. Very clean and friendly.

Jerry Tidd

No visit to Omaha is complete without a stop here. Amazing selection of candy, both novelty and homemade. The staff couldn't have been friendlier and more helpful. Kudos!

Mash Combat

This is an update to a previous bad customer service experience by Robert Harris. I thought it only fair to commend the owner(s)/management for correcting the problem and redeeming themselves the next day and give a 5-star rating. At least it will average out the 1-star. We were promptly greeted when we walked in the door and offered free candy when we identified ourselves. One girl that was there the night before turned beat red LOL. Thank you, you have a nice shop and a great product. We shall return. :-)

Penny Kershaw

Great variety and great tasting too!!!

Jacqui Bradley

A beautiful ray of happiness on a cloudy day. That is how this candy shop feels. It just makes your day, so much better! Greatest fudge ever!

Brad K

Neat little candy shop located in the heart of the The Old Market. If you are into candy and or have small children, this is a place you might want to visit. Nostalgic candy as well. Very small shop so hopefully it won't be crowded if you stop in... Just be patient and wait your turn!

ydnarb royeb

Favorite spot in town for treats expecally sence super high quality at fair prices

Beth Talmadge

I give them 5 stars for reaching out to me after a less than satisfactory experience purchasing candy. Retraining staff and selling quality product(s) is a great step to being quality business. - Thank You Mike and Jeff!
