So many of my old Fave's in here, the lollie shop with such a weird name. They are a little expensive, but you will pay more for imported lollie's and the old fashioned boiled sort.

There is something for everyone in here, and I did love to have a good poke around. I was lucky on the day and found a barrel of toffee's that were out of date and had a great price on them, so I did go overboard and bought the lot as they were SO cheap. There are so many in here I remember from when I was a little girl and wanted to buy one of each of them for my grandkids. What fun going through a lollie shop it brings out the child in us all.

The gentleman serving though I felt really should have put a bit of a smile on his face, he looked so bored and I felt that, just that changed the atmosphere in there a little. I felt it, so I think kids would as well.

We love popping into this gorgeous little shop filled with ALL your all time old-fashioned lollies ... takes you down memory lane as a kid : )
A bit overpriced as it makes you hesitant to buy more pkts, etc ... but if your after a lollies you haven't had in decades then you don't mind paying that bit extra for those.
... We pop in here once in awhile as a treat on a Sunday arvo after having a yummy lunch down the road at the local Bakery and our little daughter loves looking forward to picking out your sweet !!!
Only thing i would change is the service as the older men that we have come across working there find it hard to give a smile and look like they are bored working there which is unfortunate for customers being excited to shop there.

Approximate cost: $3.50 approx for a small bag of lollies.

I'm glad it wasn't just me that felt that way about the man in the shop. I thought I was being a bit picky.

Cutest little shop. Packed full of lollies... literally floor to ceiling lollies. Such an exciting little place to take kids to. Good prices considering the product you are purchasing. They are definitely more expensive than your party mix packet from a supermarket but it is all hand made lollies and they taste delicious!
