My wife and I go out of our way whenever we're at the coast for the Rocky Road fudge here. The hardest part about going in is deciding what else to get while we're there. So many of my favorite chocolates: Peanut Butter, Coffee and Malt truffles, Salted caramels and chocolate covered coconut.
They also have very friendly staff and almost everything is made in house. A great Oregon company doing it right. A seaside tradition! -

Yuck.
I thought candy shops were supposed to be the happiest places in the world full of cheery people and yummy treats. Not so much at Phillips Candy Kitchen. We weren't greeted and the girl at the front had a really nasty attitude. We got a pound of fudge and a few pieces of the divinity bar. The fudge my best friend got was stale and made her want to puke and my divinity bar was dry and tasted like flour. If I wasn't so opposed to littering, I would've chucked it out the window on my drive down the coast it was so terrible.
Disgusting.
I would've liked to review a bit more about the other products they had but felt ready to go after the cashier's death stare. Absolutely not worth the time we spent there or the cash we forked over for their inedible "treats". -

Claim to fame: the only shop in town to make their saltwater taffy in-house. We bought a 1/4 pound of the stuff for $2.50.
Be forewarned, the stench of stale, fake-butter drenched popcorn will assault you as soon as you enter.Listed in: Hapa Holiday Road Adventures…

AMAZING. That is all I can say. AMAZING.
I live in Phoenix, AZ. This spring we ordered over 10 lbs of the salt water taffy shipped down to us. Butter and Cinnamon. Devine. That is all I can say. HEAVENLY.
Can not wait until my next trip up to Seaside, or next spring (as it gets too hot to ship taffy to Arizona) -

Phillips Candy Kitchen has been in Seaside for longer than I've been alive. I cannot possibly walk past the store without going in.
MUST HAVES: The caramel corn is second to none. I am a huge snob about caramel corn....try it. If you like cheese corn, I know many who are big fan's of Phillip's cheese corn too, but I hate they way it turns my fingers and teeth orange.
They make their own taffy in-house.....don't buy into the "Candy Man's" street front giveaways....they ship theirs in from out of state, and it's stale and not as flavorful as Phillips.
They also are the only candy store in Seaside to hand dip their chocolates on premises. Their fudge and nut brittles are also made right there. It just doesn't get any fresher or more hand made than at Phillips. They are the only place I've found west of the Mississippi to make seafoam, which I grew up knowing as "chocolate covered molasses puffs". But, if you would rather have Zots or Sourpatch Kids or candy cigarettes, they have plenty to choose from.
Yeah, the popcorn smell is heavy, but that is because the popcorn popper is right by the door......it has honestly never bothered me. To me, that's better than bringing in the popcorn by the trash bag, which I've seen done at too many places. -

They have all the good stuff in Phillips Candy Kitchen. Caramels, fruit slices, fudge, jelly beans, sea foam, and POP ROCKS. OMG.
Top it off with a staff even sweeter than the goods they sell, and you've got a winning combo on the shore! -

When you order the ambrosial caramel corn from Phillips's they will ask you, lid open or closed? Always, I mean always order it "lid open"! Why you might ask.
Because when you do they flip the box lids up and fill the box with even more of that fit for the gods, delectable, mouthwatering, heavenly, savory, delicious, tasty, toothsome, divine caramel corn. That's it! -

My chocolate fix was fixed here. The caramels actually melted in my mouth. No stale, filling-pulling caramel here, folks. They also had dark choc seafoam that was very very good quality. I wouldn't let myself buy anything else, but it all looked very good. The service was quick and friendly. Yay for sugar!
