A staple in Hyannis that has been around for decades!
Good fudge, classic candy, and a great selection of touristy stuff in the back--assuming you're a tourist. If you're a local, then not so much. ;) -

Worth a stop in. I remember this place from my childhood, so that might give it an extra star! It's fun. But the chocolates (by the pound) here are very good -- love the buttercrunch bars and chocolate covered cranberries and nuts.
The gift shop and other candy items are your usual pretty junky stuff.
Have never tried their fudge or ice cream. But if you want to bring back a box of candy assortment by the pound for someone, this is the best place in the area. -

Worth a stop in. In a declining tourist area this place can cover all your tourist shopping needs. They have a huge selection of candy, fudge and some ice cream.
There is also a large gift shop in the back that has a variety of themed items from wizard of oz, hello kitty and cape cod.
The taffy is actually pretty good. -

Their ice cream is awful and their fudge is nothing to write home about. Very disappointing.

No trip to downtown Hyannis is complete without a stop into the Kandy Korner, but that doesn't mean you need to buy anything.
Their candy selection is that of your typical candy store, minus a few items. They do make their own fudge here, and you can see them doing it in the window frequently, but I have never tried it personally. The fudge, however, has always been good - nothing special in my opinion but definitely not atrocious.
Further back in the shop they have all sorts of various knick-knacks that one can expect to see in all sorts of shops around The Cape. However, there's a bit of a time saving benefit to being able to do all your souvenir shopping in one fell swoop, and for that the Kandy Korner is perfect. -

Tourist Trap. Kandy Korner has been an institution in Hyannis since the 1910's. They will ship anywhere(this I know because I sent some salt water taffy to my mom in St. Louis). The taffy is the best. The fudge looked good, but I didn't get any on this trip.

This store is really BIG inside, but it's not all candy. The front part of the store is where the candy, fudge, ice cream,etc is, and the back part of the store is a touristy spot, selling everything Cape Cod. The fudge here looks good, but doesn't taste very good. The top part of the fudge is always hard as a rock, and the middle/bottom is always sticky. I've had fudge before from a thousand different places, and none of them are ever like this, especially with the top being so hard. There are plenty of places on Cape Cod to buy fudge, and candy so I'd recommend going to one of them instead of Kandy Korner. The candy here is nothing special either, just a bunch of little pieces you can get anywhere. Try the Candy Cafe in the Christmas Tree Plaza in Hyannis. They have excellent fudge, and a better selection of candy.
