Showed up with a friend around 2am for a late night snack traveled from south Brooklyn to show up to doors locked lights on no one in there stood there with a friend for over 30 min. Please don’t put 24/7 if there’s a hour in the early
Morning where there isn’t anyone there I was very disappointed and upset and had to travel all the way home with nothing in hand 😡
Old school candy store in New York selling deliciousness.
Very kind service, and very good hot chocolate
This doesn't look like much from the outside to be honest but it has such a cool old school vibe to it. They have a wide selection of sweet treats but also some more savory options as well. It can get overwhelming with all the pictures and signs everywhere. It can also get a little crowded since there isn't much space inside. We had some fired Oreos and they were delicious!!
Amazing beignets, great staff, staple of the east village
Fried Oreos FTW
If you have time please try everything there is yummy 100000% support

thought it was an actually candy store it's more of a soda fountain. ice cream, banana splits, egg creams, sodas, fried foods. bomb tho I went in looking for a place that sells fudge by the 1/4 pound tho
I saw an American YouTube channel that was introducing New York food, so I stopped by and ordered some fried Oreos.
The price was cheap and it was okay
But it's too sweet... I was bitten by it... Not recommended for those who don't like sweet things.
Recommended if you like sweets. I also recommend trying something new.
The owner is fun and kind.

It is a stationery-like snack shop that is a place of childhood memories for many New Yorkers. It is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and is run by two elderly couples who immigrated from Poland in the past.
I was hoping to meet the owner's grandfather because he was such a celebrity, but I couldn't because I worked shift shifts with him. I asked my grandmother and she said she was leaving late in the evening.
The menu is numerous and lined up on the wall, including Oreo shakes, Nutella shakes, and egg cream. It's not a junk food, but it's a calorie bomb and is mostly sweet and cheap.
The most famous and symbolic item on the menu is Deep Fried Oreo, which is literally fried Oreo. It is characterized by coating Oreos in batter and frying them, like a French donut called beignet.
They cost 7 dollars each and they generously serve 12 of them, but as is typical in the US, the portions are huge. I ate one right away while it was freshly fried and hot. It felt like my blood vessels were clogged, but it was delicious.
The Oreo became a single dough, the crispy batter broke apart, and the moisture melted in my mouth, and it felt like eating a luxurious chocolate donut. It was even more so when I sprinkled powdered sugar on it.
The problem is that I get bitten all of a sudden from more than one drink, so I asked my grandmother for a drink that would go well with it and ordered it. It was a non-alcohol soda that tasted like sangria, and the syrup taste was very strong.
When I came back and brushed my teeth, I couldn't forget the red foam that came out of my mouth, and the Deep Fried Oreos were also strongly etched in my mind. It was a friendly and enjoyable time with my grandmother as my companion.
P.S. Card payment possible
