As soon as you drive up, you are welcomed by a nice big sign! Just a forewarning, if you take the left at the light, immediately turn on your indicator to turn right as the driveway into Olivers is right there! When you step inside, the smell of fresh chocolate, and sweets fill you. They carry every sugar concoction you can dream of! The chocolates are my favorite! Milk, dark, chocolate covered, bars, candy coated, chocolate covered nuts, gift boxed, SUGAR FREE (and a great variety!), a make your own pixie stick station for the kids, or the big kid in you! They have Jelly Belly brand big gummy Dinos, and jelly beans, as well as other licensed candies, for the little ones to enjoy. They also have the cutest decor for serving your delectable sweets on, and greeting cards for many occasions. What I love, and have utilized twice myself, is their ability to pack and ship your goodies to send, right from the store! Thats right, and my items were sent to Arizona, and arrived within a week! My grandmother was so happy to receive some NY treats! Last but not least, check out their delicious ice cream shop around back! Delicious sundaes, and my favorite, the banana milkshake. You can sit in the little indoor area, or outdoors and enjoy your treat. They also have a freezer filled with yummy frozen treats to go. Take the scenic route, and get yourself some yummy sweets!
Definitely my favorite candy/chocolate store to go to when we are in town!! They also have ice cream too
Ever since I was a little girl, Ive loved Olivers candy and the store! Such a variety of delicious chocolate creations! From mouth-watering truffles to original sponge candy and malted milk balls to glazed cashews and almonds to seasonal treats for Halloween, Easter, Thanksgiving and especially Christmas! Their ribbon candy is excellent! 💜
Its nice to see a chocolate store that makes its own candies. While the prices are a bit more than what you would pay for from store brands, the quality is better. Just about all of the candies if not all, looked as though they were all hand made in the back which shows the quality of the people making them. They also have a small ice cream parlor on the side which adds to the enjoyment! While this may not be a place to go all of the time, it indulge in a sweet treat here on occasion will definitely be worth it!
Havent been there in 40 years....Still wonderful. Huge variety of products. Delicious chocolate!!
Such variety...and so good. Great staff. After doing our taxes in Feb in Alden we make a day of it and go to Olacys Irish Pub for lunch, then Olivers.🥰
Olivers candy is the place to shop. Youll love the variety and the mouth watering selection. Handicapped ramp with Handicapped parking easy to enter and the staff is excellent
Endless assortment of candys, popcorn, and of course chocolates!Great variety to pick from! Clean, well lit and very inviting to shop..Happy Easter!
Oh my! 1st time, candy land! Fantastic selections, gearing up for Easter! Great staff, super helpful. Will go back.
Too cute! Hometown candy store. Saw items I havent had in years. Nice!
Great chocolate and their coffee is really good too! The smores is our favorite kind.
My first time visiting Oliver’s and WOW!! If you can’t find it here it doesn’t exist! They have it all. Chocolate, sponge candy and in many different flavors, rock candy, licorice, gummies, fudge, truffles, ribbon candy, nuts, and OMG the Ice Cream!! Their scoops of Ice Cream are enormous!! Like the size of my head! I had the Bourbon Caramel and it was phenomenal. I can’t believe the number of times I’ve driven past and never stopped in until now. I’ll never make that mistake again.
One of my favourite places in Batavia. Always try to go when I am visiting. Excellent chocolate malted balls...
Were having a girl a little girl today and Ive been hanging these out to the staff. Great chocolate and employees! Its always worth the hour and a half drive to get Olivers!
The candy, ice cream and fun gifts are great enough, but the staff really makes it. Theyre fun and happy and always pleased to see everyone!
What lovely people! And the sweets are divine! A MUST try is the dark chocolate covered sponge candy & the glazed cashews. So delicious! The red licorice laces are fun & delightful! I will definitely be going back!
I ordered candy from this store online and the person helping me was so personable and efficient. When I received the candy, it was shipped with an ice pack to insure it wouldnt melt, and there were no broken candies due to the excellent packaging of the products. Yum, Yum, yum! Thank you so much for sending out these hard-to-find items, and for your outstanding customer service =)
This is a regular stop on my trips to Letchworth. Its a charming and delightful candy shop, with some very unique confections! I highly recommend them for gifts to others (and maybe even a few selfish indulgences here and there too)!
Very nice store, helpful staff and great assortment candy
Great selection and good prices. The Easter items are unique and well-presented.
Been going here for years ,the women always go out of their way. They customized a gift for my girl ,she loved it.
Living in the mid-south now I cant find some of my favorite candies. Olivers has sponge candy. When I was a kid it was only available in the Fall and Winter. Ill be ckg out their website for sure.
Nice selection of candy. Cashiers went above and beyond.
Visited back before the holidays and the place was crazy busy. You can tell its a beloved local shop.Selection is decent, they have a nice variety of things to choose from in a range of sizes. The chocolate is pretty good, not the best Ive had from area chocolatiers, but overall pretty solid.
My daughters and mine favorite candy rainbow chocolate-covered sunflower seeds.
I have so many sweet memories of Olivers. Im in my late 60s and have been coming there since I was in 1st grade, traveling from Clarence to Keuka Lake...and Olivers never disappoints. Brought some friends on Tuesday and received outstanding customer service from Dave. He was friendly, courteous and very helpful...he is a great representative for your store. Many thanks!
This is how my gift from my granddaughter arrived. There were no separation between the different kinds of the ribbons. I used to live in Batavia and bought your Ribbon candy and this is unacceptable. My granddaughter Rebecca Gusler from PA. Along with assorted chocolates and nuts had this sent and arrived in port Orchard, Wa,today. Rita Greco
Best chocolate! Definitely worth the trip.
Love this place. Best chocolates in western NY
Amazing ice-cream, and affordable even for a kid. A medium is 2-3 dollars and the ice-cream itself is very good. Never tried the candy, so that is up to you to try.
Very robust selection of chocoates and coffees flavors, whole bean and ground.
This is not only the Finest candy shop in the world, and yes, Ive travelled 63 countries, but no chocolate on earth is close in texture, flavor, and natural warmth. This shop does not just make candies, they make childhood memories that last a lifetime. You can not find anything crafted in this shop that is anything shy of perfect. If you purchase anything less for your wife or mother, you dont really love them.
This is my absolute favorite candy/chocolate store. The truffles are a must try! Perfect place for a gift for someone special!
My husband and I ordered chocolates from Olivers. We live in Jacksonville Florida. We received the candy in less than a week. The candy was packaged very carefully and they even included an ice bag, so that the chocolate didnt melt. We have never ordered from them before, but I can say, we will order from them again. The chocolate is so delicious! None of it was melted. I also ordered some pecan logs, like the ones you can buy from the state of Georgia. You usually find them in truck stops and gas stations. I have to say, that Olivers, has Stuckeys beat. The pecan logs were very fresh. The nougat in the middle just melted in your mouth. Both my husband and I are very happy with our purchase!
Went to get ice cream with the grandkids. Delicious ice cream and shakes. The candy is spectacular, and worth the drive from anywhere! I Am one of the grandkids the ice cream was amazing I loved the chacolat circle on top it was the best ice cream I have ever had 🍦
The absolute best place to get sponge candy. They make a butter crunch toffee chocolate that is better than Heath. From the friendliness of the employees to the quality of the chocolate you can’t beat Oliver’s.
Their ice cream is out of this world! Their selection of candies and confections have hugely improved over the last couple years. Im still not a fan of their chocolate though. Im a chocolate lover, and even otc dove is better. Niagra and Henrys chocolates are creamier, sweeter and just better.
Best chocolate in town. Have to try the chocolate covered Oreos.
Understaffed because they are a greedy corporation that under pays its workers. One worker apparently walked out on his shift. Had to wait in an ice cream line 20 people deep to buy anything int he entire store.
Very fun to look around but only 4 stars because Im gluten free and there was only one or two things I could get there. Other than that, I liked it!
Best candy ever!! The sponge candy is the best I have ever had!
First time there, have been by it a thousand times. Glad we stopped this time. Nice shop that has variety of chocolates and unique gifts. We bought orange, coconut, peanut, and peppermint chocolates. Haley that works there was very helpful, and a pleasure to talk with. Will definitely stop there again!!!
Amazing chocolate and awesome customer service!
Such an awesome place! Highly recommend! So many delicious treats and a very popular spot in Batavia
AMAZING chocolate and ice cream shop! Ive been coming here since I was a kid and it never gets old! Absolutely LOVE the sponge candy! If you come to Batavia, make sure to stop! You wont be disappointed!
Delicious candy!Today Dave helped me out and he recommended the chocolate covered brittle and it is amazing. Check out Olivers. it is worth the trip
Went for the ice cream. They serve year round and make their own flavors. They have 10 or 12 kinds. Today I had pecan pie and banana cream pie. My favorite is sponge candy but today it was out of stock.
Very polite love there custard and there candy
Years ago there was competition for the best icecream place in Batavia, not anymore, better service and icecream is not to be had in town. The price is marginally high but not by much. Also you better get while the getting good because flavors seem to always be changing, but there is always something good.
First class chocolate at this place always! Also had the Dutch Chocolate bowl of ice cream and I couldnt believe how much ice cream they gave you for what you pay! I couldnt even finish it all! Fantastic deal! The store is decorated very nicely for Easter.
My go to place for great and unique gift ideas.Top notch variety of amazing chocolates and other confectionery delicacies.Truly an amazing and delightful shopping experience every time.I always recommend Olivers Candies to others.
I love this store. Worth the hour plus drive.
While looking at items on a shelf a female employee rudely step in front of me never said excuse my or anything, blocking me from the items I was looking at and she began stocking the shelf and talking to another customer. When we went to check out the same female was at the register and asked the people in front of us if they were a rewards member and explained it to them. When we stepped up she never asked us about the rewards membership and rudely said are you paying by credit, does it have chip well put it in the machine. She then began talking to another customer who had asked another employee a question and never said anything to us including thank you. We will not return to Olivers and will recommend to others not to go there. The whole experience was a great disappointment.
One of the best mainstream chocolate and candy places around.Outstanding ice cream too !
The best place for all your chocolate cravings! Great selection of ice cream flavors.
Love Olivers Dark chocolate and taffy!
This really is a charming shop! The truffles and peanut butter cups are incredible. The sponge candy bar is a great idea too, and a lot of great gifts too. Love it!
All the yum! Seriously, this place might be slightly pricey to some, but the chocolate is worth it. Be sure to check out the little ice cream area in the back. I love their selection of non-chocolate candy as well. The taffy and Americremes are fantastic.
Stopped by for my familys semi-weekly supply of milk chocolate sponge candy. The absolute best around.
What a gem of a place! Lots of different types of candy to choose from. We got the peanut butter sponge candy and salted caramel candies. They were amazing! And the 2 women working there were nice enough to make us a makeshift cooler so our chocolate candy wouldnt melt on our 6 hour drive home. Very nice!!! Whenever we are in the area again we will be sure to stop back!!
We drive from Rochester, NY just to visit this place. I shop there every Easter and Christmas and various times during the year. The chocolate is so yummy and they have a large and wonderful selection. Tasty ice cream too. Love it!
Cute little candy store with really friendly help! I stopped there before returning home and my family and I really enjoyed all the items that i had purchased. If im in town again, will definitely be stopping back!
We went for ice cream, I had white chocolate strawberry truffle, sooo good, they didnt skimp on portions
Hands down, this is the BEST chocolate store Ive ever been to! True, I grew up in Batavia for the most part, but honestly I even order from there now that Ive moved away. I think theyre chocolate has the best texture & taste - smooth and creamy. Sponge candy is my ultimate favorite, and nowhere else compares.The employees are always very helpful and nice. Even my kids love this place and we stop every time we are in town.
Good variety of chocolate and other merchandise
This is the place of legendary chocolates and sweets. My mom brought us to her hometown chocolatier for a special treat when we were little. Everyone in the family had their favorite. Homemade and still use the same displays. They serve ice cream in the summer too. Plenty of parking at the intersection of 2 major roads. It will always be a treat.
Great place for specialty candies. I do miss being able to see the candy made. They closed off that part of the facility. Staff has also changed. To the boy running register.... those nails looked great but nys food safety clearly states workers should not have painted or fake nails when working with food.
Every time Im in the area, I have to stop here. They have quite a variety of chocolates, including some sugar free varieties. Every visit offers something different, especially the various holiday candies. This time we tried the ice cream, which was delicious! Definitely worth a trip if you are in the area and looove chocolate 😍
Excellent selection of chocolates very delicious
Best chocolate in New York state! All candies are made locally and they have a huge variety. I love that they also have samples to try. You can buy large packages or smaller treat sized. They have specials occasion items as well. Olivers has an ice cream parlor as well. For those in your party that have dietary restrictions there are no sugar added treats too, and I tried the dark chocolate almond bark and it was as good as the sugar added stuff! End you visit with some fun family photo opportunities outside as well. A must visit for all with a sweet tooth(or even if you want a quality plush toy!).
Really good local chocolate and candy. Oh cant forget have to get ice cream during the hot days. People are friendly and will go out of there way to help.
While I was in Batavia for work this was one of the few worthwhile places to visit. In the two weeks I was in the area for work I came here 3 times to sample chocolate and over buy candy. Staff was extremely nice, friendly, accommodating and helpful. I asked one woman what chocolate sponge cake was and she explained that it was a western New York specialty and offered me a full sized piece to sample, it was awesome! Highly suggested if you happen to be in the area, you wont be disappointed :)
Just stopped in quick after getting lost. The ice cream was delicious . Great serving sizes.The mechanical horse was super cool. Only a quarter . My 18month old wasnt amused when I turned it on it scared the cheap out of her. 🙈
Its the Sweet-spot in Batavia! Vets receive 10% off with military ID. Also sign up with your cell phone number and email account to receive rewards on purchases and redeem coupons. Its a sweet deal.
Olivers has great candy and a great selection. We make it a point to go there every time we visit the wifes family.
The ribbon candy was awesome! It melted in my mouth! Definitely worth the trip!
Great candy shop! All of the candies are homemade and taste great, the prices are fair, but are high compared to those bought in a normal store. The best part is they are open until 2100 everyday! They also have some rejects at the counter you can try (usually ones that broke or were not the correct shape). Their ribbon candy is superb and there is nothing like it in any other store.
This candy store is the best, a must see if you are visiting the area. The prices can be a bit high, but the quality matches it.
This place is a gem. Being from the area I have consistently visited here for holiday gifts. Mothers day, Easter, Christmas, birthdays, anniversaries. A basket or box of chocolates from Olivers is a guaranteed smile. I also highly recommend their rewards program! Saved $10 on a purchase today!
Love all of their chocolates. Always very unique gift ideas. I even had their popcorn at our cocktail hour at my wedding and it was an absolute hit. Cant say enough good things.
What an awesome little candy shop with some great unique chocolate shapes perfect for any occasion from birthday to holiday!
Aways great service and Candy. There coffee was Fabolous as well.
Nice little shoppe. We could only get a few small things though. Most Everything was way out of our price range. Im sure its worth it, but we did get some things to sample.😄😁😊
You know that besides the most delicious candy i. WESTERN NEW YORK try their ice cream AWESOME and so reasonable. I just ordered my Birthday cake.
Walked out with a smile on my face and tons of delicious treats! My family members are as happy as clams in wet sand. As usual awesome service. Just love this place!
Great local candy shop in Batavia -- highly recommended. Literally right on Main Street. So whether you are traveling through town or jumping off the thruway -- this place is not too far off. They have everything your heart may desire if you are having a chocolate craving. Bring your sweet tooth!
Olivers has changed since the days of local ownership and management, but its been for the good. Adding more footage, and ice cream shop, and more parking has been a positive change. The chocolate and ribbon candy are as good as ever.
A bit busy but that is expected since they have the best chocolate! They were out of milk chocolate sponge candy but the gentleman waiting on me put in an order and said they will call when it comes in. Cant wait.
Lovely shop! The smell of chocolate greets you at the door. Their sponge candy is delicious and make sure to try something milk chocolate with peanut butter!
A great candy store! If you like thin ribbon candy, this is the place to go. It is available starting the week of thanksgiving until they sell out. If you have never tried sponge candy, you need to try theirs. If you need sweets for the holidays or a special hostess gift, Olivers is the place to shop.
Delicious chocolates, hard candy and nostalgic treats await the visitor who enters Olivers Chocolates in Batavia New York. Whether youre looking for sweet party treats or holiday favorites Olivers is the place to go. They even have your favorite ice cream flavors available in cones or cups...perfect for a summer day visit. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit.....especially the treats I took home! You should check them out!
Candy is great always been great!! But the prices are ridiculous.
Was here on a whim. Their chocolates are excellent and I found Maple candy which I absolutely love at a reasonable price.Only reason that they did not get a 4 is because I still feel where I go for my regular chocolate cannot be beat
Candy is great. Customer service is terrible. Drove from Buffalo for specialty mints, whole produc line changed over to one new flavor, asked to sample before spending 10 bucks on a box. Told it was no longer store policy. Ok keep your mints. Customer lost
Great chocolate, loved the peanut butter some candy! Would have liked a little more variety when choosing valentines chocolate. Ill be back for Easter!
Great candy and its homemade candy coffee and ice cream its very good place to take your kids or grandkids
Craftsmen quality chocolate. Folks drive for hours to shop here. Its a zoo around Easter but so what, the smell alone is worth paying for. And not just chocolates, glazed cashews are addictive, heck the whole shop is addictive! Every thing is made right there and you can order online and have it shipped or made ready to pick up. Look for their half dipped mint creams too. My kids would clean out the garage for them.
Been going here for a number of years when I visit my grandparents. Their ice cream is very good, and their sponge candy is the best. The brick candy is very nostalgic for me
I wanted to buy the whole store! Salted caramels were AMAZING! Visit here and support this family business!!!
I havent ever been there before. But me and my daughter stopped today. Wow what a treat. I would recommend everyone stopping. I know you wouldnt be disappointed. Satisfaction guaranteed.love Olivers Candies
A must-visit location for anyone that loves homemade candy. Christmas is especially festive with an array of wonderful gift ideas and stocking stuffers – from cute mugs full of “snowball” candies to Christmas themed chocolate lollipops and chocolate candy canes. Let’s not forget delicious sponge candy in assorted flavors along with the beautiful boxes of ribbon candy. Make sure to check out the ice cream parlor in the back of the store, too. Delicious and homemade flavors some of which are inspired by their candy variations such as cashew glaze and sponge candy ice cream!
Its candies are the best I love them I recommend one hundred percent and I felt like a kid in a candy store
Batavias great local candy storeGifts, Chocolates, and Candies for all occasionsGreat atmosphere in and outside the shopIce cream parlor in the back with outdoor seating and 2 or 3 small tables inside
First time there. We got ice cream. Great selection, and very tasty.
Olivers has changed over the years and not for the better. The quality of the chocolate has gone down The part that turned us off several boxes of chocolates had more of the lesser expensive candies in the assortment . On the display shelves is the piece count per box. We decided to see if the counts were accurate on the boxes we purchased. Every single box was under the amount listed. Mistake? If so why were none of the boxes over? The size of the boxes didnt matter they were all under the piece count. Dishonest to say the least. Shame on Olivers.
Delicious handmade candies. A large selection of sugar free/no sugar added candies. Prices are on par for the quality. Their ice cream is an additional treat!
Very good chocolate, delicious ice cream and the workers are incredibly kind and helpful.
Anything and everything candy!! Quality is tops!! Ice cream shoppe too... Its a fun experience. Great for families
Had an excellent experience as usual. This time was extra special because Barbara went in the attic and pulled out their Easter flags so I could buy one. Wont be back in the area before than. Thanks so much.
We went here with the family and what a treat it was! Ice cream, shakes, chocolates, and gifts in the heart of Batavia. We ordered the strawberry shake and it was delicious 😋 The prices are really reasonable too 💞What a sweet find 😍
We love the ice cream shop in here! We walk down as a family once a week or so in the summer for a nice treat. The portions are pretty large and the staff is friendly.
My wife and I have had chocolate from everywhere: Sees from San Francisco, Leonidas and Godiva from Brussels, Munsons here in CT, but we both agree that Olivers in Batavia is the very best. We make a pound of their milk chocolate caramels last as long as we can (we hide them from the kids!). There are lots of other good sweet treats as well, including white chocolate lolipops that we bring back for the kids. Quality at this level is worth paying for, and were so glad Olivers is going strong.
Thanks! Staff was awesome putting together my aunts birthday gift & it was shipped with no problems! She is enjoying all her yummy chocolate 😉
I love this place! I only get to Batavia about once a year. I have to go to Olivers for the pastel mints!
Great selection of Chocolate & Candy.
Found some cute gift ideas while enjoying some chocolate and ice cream.. nice place for browsing while trying to decide which delicious piece to buy. Friendly and attentive staff, glad we stopped on a non busy day, I can imagine it gets crowded!
Olivers is a great place for your sweet tooth!! You can find chocolates in small or large quantities, nuts, popcorn, ice cream and stuffed animals. Plus a whole lot more. And they are open everyday!!
I ordered from this company a few days ago. I already received my order today! I want to thank Olivers because I was looking for the candy I ordered that you can no longer get. From my childhood. Immediately it took me back.Thank you so much!
Olivers Candies!You cannot find better chocolate or selection anywhere. Pricey but worthy of the cost. My favorite are their peanut butter cups. Outstanding.
AWESOME place with AWESOME food, AWESOME ice cream! Their Crazy Cones are SUPER DELICIOUS! I totally wanna go back...and probably have more!
Have to go to see how good it is 🙂
Stopped in about 1 month ago hoping to get an ice cream sundae after a pretty bad morning to try to cheer up. Rang the bell for service 3 or 4 times and never got waited on. Put my chocolates back on the shelves and left.
Delicious gourmet chocolates for every occasion.
The best candy ever!! The staff is very helpful too. We asked for an item that was not displayed and Julie checked on it for us. I cant say enough about Olivers Candy!
Most unique candy store Ive ever been to! And really good icecream!!! And they have so many different sundays to choose from. Incredible.
Love Olivers candy. Its good and the workers are always fast and friendly.
We used to live in Batavia...20 yrs. ago, and loved Olivers Candies then. Now, when we come back to WNY, we make sure to stop and stock up on our favorites we cant get in Denver...cashew glaze, orange flavored chocolate, and coconut snow peaks. DELICIOUS! Worth the drive, from Buffalo or Rochester!
Great variety of top quality sweets. Their Lemon Mints are OUTSTANDING!
My favorite is their dark chocolate mint patties however everything tastes amazing!!
As always the customer service is great! The candy assortment is amazing... they even had ribbon candy! Its always my go to candy store.
Great selection of candied nuts and over priced chocolates .Love the candied pecan though. So so customer service, the people working seem to be unhappy working there. Very unwelcoming.
Fun stop. We had ice cream. Ate chocolate. Lovely people. Friendly. Cool place. So colorful. There were samples. Quite an amazing candy store.
One of the best confectioners around! Awesome selection of chocolate, sponge candy (Buffalo area thing, just try it!), And ice cream.... Oh the ice cream was so good.....
My go to candy store, no other. Fantastic products and staff. You will not be disappointed. Oh, and the ice cream, outstanding.
Did not even try the candy yet but the whole time we were in the store they were following us around i did not get to look at everything I wanted and did not purchase what I wanted and bought things I didnt want to purchase because we felt so uncomfortable and felt like they want anyone in there even though it was in the middle of the day
They have the best candy and are so kind and helpful! Weve been going here for 20+ years!!
So i have had one of the worst experiences with ordering my mints mind you they were suppose to be delivered on November 19 2018 didnt arrive till november 24th when i opened the first box pieces were broken and stuck together. They are refusing a refund. So ill never ever be buying from this place again.
They have fantastic chocolate. Quality has remained consistent since the Easter Bunny used to get the chocolate rabbits there 50 years ago when I was a kid.
This place sells the best chocolate and candies ever I highly recommend going there. They also have an ice cream bar.
One of Batavia best kept secrets. Amazing products and super nice staff. I know they recently expanded into Elba but that doesnt mean they took away from the Batavia location. Highly recommended.
Dont get back to NY as often as I like. My mom grew up in Batavia. Olivers is a MUST stop at!!! Some of the best chocolate EVER! Brought some back for my 6 year old and shes hooked!
Friendly staff...awesome chocolates and candies!
What a gem🤗 Located in Batavia NY. Known for their 3 kinds of Sponge Candy but what tops the list for me is the homemade French Custard.Try a Hot Fudge Sundae topped with real Whipped Cream and a bright red Cherry ! Yum Yum 💓
Great sponge candy available in several different varieties. The place has been there for almost 90 years. That would make it a local landmark in my book
Great selection of just about every candy you could desire. Very friendly staff. Great experience. I wish they were in my home town.
Great shop, but there are more affordable chocolatiers in the area you can visit. Still, you wont find better sponge candy in Batavia, NY.
Olivers candies is the best place to get homemade chocolate and candy. I love it there.
I have loved Olivers for years, and my most recent experience only confirmed this yet again. There was an issue with the post office and shipping. After finding the problem, they hand delivered my order to my office to ensure it got to me by my deadline. Huge thank you to all who worked to resolve this for me!!
Great selection of chocolate and candy and dont forget to get some ice cream while youre there
I had a 1 scoop ice cream cone which was really 3 scoops of ice cream. Ice cream was delicious plus they give you a drip catcher on your cone. That also sell specialty coffee and chocolates.
We stopped in for a visit after reading about Olivers online. We were not disappointed! It was great. Great candy and the staff was super friendly. Would definitely go back!!
Best ice cream experience in a long time. ladies very knowledgeable. cone was broke and the soft serve was so high it fell over from broken cone the women replaced it .Im going back again
Delightful employee helped me out... and explained western NY sponge candy to me.... wish I got her name! Huge variety of goodies here!
Great place for all sorts of classic candy. They make most, if not all, their candy right there, and theyre always super friendly.
Awesome candy and ice cream shop. Very polite and humble people. Always a pleasure going there......
Had not been here since I was a kid. Passing through today I was pleased to see that they were open 9AM to 9PM, so we stopped for some treats
The lady in ice cream was wonderful!!
Just another candy and ice cream shop. Years ago they were known for their goats milk fudge. They told me they never heard of it. When young people take over, nothing is ever the same. Wont go back.
Nice as always! We never leave the store without a basket full of their delicious candies!
Love the variety of candy. They also sell ice cream. Takes a while to figure out what we are going to get, but its fun.
Pricey. But good. I dont like the new box packaging. Looks cheap. Doing Godiva. Clear plastic. No...just dont match the price of the chocolate at all!!!
Delicious creamy ice cream. And awesome sundaes. Their whip cream is awesome.
Wonderful candy and ice cream shoppe. Reminds me of the old time candy stores of my youth. Many different choices of candy. Highly recommended.
Valentines day candies! Such a great selection! Now, I cant wait for Easter! 😋
I just wish they had more sugar free chocolates. Otherwise we really love to come here. The girls are always great and we love them.
Cute little shop with decent chocolate and a huge selection. Ice cream/hard frozen yogurt is delicious, and you get a ton for the small price!
Ice cream and hand made candies what is not to like! The intersection is a bit tricky and location is very visible from Main St traffic.
Great selection! Picked out several truffles at the counter by the register. We were not disappointed with any of them!
HAD A GREAT WELCOMING HERE, HOMEMADE CHOCOLATES AND 🍬 CANDY. DEFINITELY A PLACE TO VISIT IN BATAVIA.
We loved this place. There was a lot of specialty candies. Some of the candies took me back to My Grandmothers house...
Not social distancing enjoy pricey, but nice place, need smaller package option and someone at front counter.
Bought a chocolate frog of the Harry Potter variety, frog didnt jump so I ate it and also got my first wizard card! Plus they had free samples to try. NoiCee!
The chocolate is fantastic. The staff are always friendly and helpful. Definitely will be back.
Wonderful store, smells delicious. Great variety of chocolate, friendly, helpful staff. Little on pricey side, but good chocolate is expensive.
LOVE LOVE LOVE their chocolate!!! Always something new and different and they always have the classics. Their fudge is delicious.
Service was prompt and friendly! The ice cream was delicious! And best it didnt break the bank to get our family of 5 all a treat.
Good candy. Friendly staff
Really, really good homemade candy! Just great stuff. Theres always a reason to stop.
Love the assortment of sponge candy
Awesome old time feel. I got ice cream and son got 🍬! Both were happy with our picks. Will be back.
Ok, theyre not cheap, but they make some of the best chocolates anywhere in the known universe. As soon as I walk in the door and smell the chocolate, my willpower vanishes.
Great place for chocolate. Friendly staff. If you dont see what you want ask them they may have it in the back. They also make specific items for you if you give them enough time.
The best chocolate and candy year around. Made right there along with there icecream!!! They also do tours just call in advance for your group !
Good selection, but a little shy on caramel items. Ice cream good, a little shy on selections. Pricing good, employees very good
So much to choose from. Chocolates, ice cream and more chocolate.
Great great chocolate, great ice cream and the young man working in the ice cream shop in is AWESOME. Great personality, very customer friendly. Love this place!
Love the atmosphere and the ice cream I had was tasty. Good consumer service too!
Massive selection of fantastic treats. The store is a great show piece and the staff are as sweet as the candies!
Good customer service and good selection of tasty candy. You need to try the sponge candy if you have not. It is a local treat that is unique.

2022-05-02My favorite place to get dark chocolate truffles! So delicious. They have a wide, wonderful array of candies and chocolates, and their ice cream in the summer is perfect! Clean store, friendly helpful employees. Please support this business, its so worth it!

2022-06-06Large room filled with candy choices. Boxes, bags, old time favorites, new flavors and old. Some decorative items- trays, stuffed toys. Separate area for ice cream- cones, sundaes- with inside area to eat or tables outside

2022-05-04They used to make the chocolate in store but it appears most if not all is brought in and resold as their own. Its good chocolate wherever it comes from. The younger staff are rude and not helpful but the more seasoned staff couldnt be nicer.

2021-02-28I forgot to take pictures in the store! Weve driven by so many times on the way to Buffalo/Niagara and today we finally stopped.Immediately walked in to an Easter candy wonderland. Chocolate in the shape of bunnies, eggs, even tractors! They have chocolate covered nuts, brittle, gummy candy, and so much more.We purchased dark chocolate covered buttercrunch (not sure of the actual name but it was like a toffee/brittle taste), cashew clusters, rock candy, assorted chocolate pops, etc, and the most delicious sponge candy!!! Very light and airy, not hard, covered in yummy chocolate. Also had complimentary coffee in the icecream shop area which was nice on this chilly day.

2020-01-09MY FIRST TIME HERE!!! Honestly great place came for the Ice Cream. Wasnt sure what to get. The employee was very quick to help me and gave me an EXCELLENT SUGGESTION. If you like Carmel get the Sponge Candy Ice cream. VERY friendly staff willing to strike conversation quick and help me as well. Heck the bathrooms blew me away by how beautifully nice they were DEFINITELY COMING BACK.
