It was a very nice tour where they talked about the history of the building and company. Probably not the best choice for kids as it’s not interactive at all. I think I misunderstood that we would be involved in the making of our own chocolate bars. But they made them for us. There are better options for kids - he told us about several classes they do which I think would be a lot more fun for them.

A fun store to visit, with a cool restaurant and lots of great treats. The tour, given by Pete, the owner, took us through all three floors of the shop, and gave us insights on the building of the business, the making of chocolate, and a bit of the history of the location. A definite must-visit when in Jacksonville.

A short and very informative tour on the history of Pete’s and the candy making process that ends with a customized candy bar treat! The building was festively decorated and inviting, and the tour guide was great! Portions of the tour are geared toward product sale.

Had a tour at Pete's and it was a lot of fun. There was so much candy and it was very interesting to see how it was made. I booked the store for my adult family and we all loved it. The Christmas decorations were awesome so happy we went during December. The chocolate bars that they made for us were absolutely delicious. We are also happy that we stopped to check out this place.

Cute sweet shop. Lots of yummy stuff to choose from. Fun to tour and see chocolates being made and packaged. Their restaurant had delicious food. We had hotdogs, Orings and Cole slaw and draft beer.

This was a fun time with a lot of history behind it. Just a thought, you should think about opening up the basement for a visit

Pete's Sweet Shop was a lot of fun, made us feel like a kid again. They have some great tasking chocolate and fudge. Please, don't miss going to this place if you're in the area
