Phillips 66 is a local one-stop shop for gas, coffee, drinks, groceries, and snacks, dedicated to unmatched customer service and quality. It is also home to an exceptional candy store, described as an old-school candy shop on steroids and an adorable chocolate shop in the middle of nowhere. The place offers an overwhelming selection, featuring every candy imaginable, including old-timey candies from childhood, salt water taffy, fudge, brittle, gummies, chocolate-covered treats, and exotic bottled drinks. A major highlight is the homemade fudge and milk chocolate made on-site, which customers can view being made through glass windows. The variety is vast, with barrels of candy and countless sodas lining the walls. The staff is consistently noted as friendly and helpful. The store's ambiance is family-oriented, though it can be chaotic with a lot of traffic, as it is a popular tourist trap co-located with the gas station and near the World's Largest Gift Store. A notable bonus is the impeccably clean and beautifully designed restrooms. While there are no dining options at the exit, the experience is considered a must-stop for travelers on I-44. Customers should be prepared for tourist prices, but the chance to feel like a kid in a candy shop makes it a recommended and memorable stop.
One if the best places I've ever seen for old school candies I have seen in a while. So many to choose from depending on your sweet tooth. The variety of fudge is a must try! You also get a chance to sample them! Bring a toothbrush to prevent cavities!

Almost any kind of penny candy you could want, plus fudge! Can't miss the signs along the highway.

Love stopping here, the fudge, mint melt, turtles are to die for and a candy selection that would not believe! We ended up spending twice as much on sweets as we did on fuel
