Crown Candy Kitchen is a charming historic ice cream parlor that offers a wonderful time capsule experience. This beloved St. Louis institution is a must-visit if you're in the area, just a 10-minute drive from the Arch. They serve delicious ice cream and amazing BLTs, making it an incredible destination. The sundaes and milkshakes are perfectly crafted, and the sandwiches come in generous portions. Visitors can enjoy a variety of food, beverages, and candy, creating a seamless experience whether dining in or taking out.
The place is often packed, especially during lunch hours, highlighting its popularity. The staff is professional, attentive, and moves fast, even with the busy lunchtime crowd. The BLT is especially popular, with some saying it’s crazy and full of bacon, perfect for sharing. One reviewer noted the chocolate milkshake as a definite 10/10. While some have commented on the bacon sandwich and the tuna salad sandwich being on the saltier side, the overall atmosphere, history, and friendly staff make Crown Candy Kitchen a special spot for enjoying a meal or a treat. Additionally, visitors are encouraged to try their handmade candy during their next visit.
