One of my favorite things to do for you guys is to discover new restaurants that you’ve yet to visit or have maybe never even heard of. While it’s always nice to find the perfect place where you can get a delicious home cooked meal, sometimes we just need to bite into something that will please our sweet tooth. It may be easy to run into a nearby convenient store and grab a quick bar of chocolate, but this one massive candy store in New York will make you feel like a kid again.

Opened by the current owner’s father, Jerry Cohen now keeps the family business going while running the store with his wife and son! The store started off as a typical candy store, now remaining the local neighborhood shop.

One of the reasons why this store has managed to maintain such a long history of loyal customers is that they’re always providing visitors with such a huge and nostalgic variety of products.
