It was suggested that we visit Dylan's with our 8 yr old son...it's a novelty and of course we all like candy. I was shocked to see how dirty the store was, especially because it's Dylan Lauren who owns the store. There were many employees working the day we were there, yet it seemed very unorganized, especially at check-out... we... More

The day before Easter might not be the ideal day to visit, but things worked out well. I gave our teen daughters a set amount that they could spend (which they did to the nearest quarter or so), and my wife and I spent most of the time upstairs, sitting quietly in the cafe with a drink and dessert. As... More

It is worth stopping by. I think they get a lot of overflow traffic from people who don't want to wait 2 hours for serendipity. We went there for some ice cream and a cup cake and sat very comfortable in the cafe. The candy store is overpriced and has long lines so we did not buy anything. It's fun... More

I was bringing a group of out of town friends to Dylan's last Thursday, and we were running late. It was 8:50PM, so I thought we would at least have a few minutes to look around and pick something small up. When we arrived, the door was already locked, and they were not letting anyone else in. I've worked in... More

Really enjoyed visiting the candy store to see all the fun items. Would be great if the staff were more knowledgeable, I asked if they had a certain type of item and no one seemed to know or care to look.

Dylan's was interesting and crowded. Lots of choices, chaos, and candy. We stayed for about thirty minutes and bought a few things.

I was nuts and took my kids during the holidays! Crazy busy but still full of fun. We made our way up to the second floor. Ordered a candy pizza for the kids and enjoyed two delicious, fun adult cocktails (one made with Nerds and another with Peach Rings) while enjoying the vibrant craziness that is Dylans' Candy Bar. They... More

Every candy you can think of and a lot more! They had a display case with containers of celebrities favorite candy. (Bill Clinton loves "Payday" bars ;) The best part of the decor was the steps and the wallpaper in the bathroom, just like Willy Wonka's. Lots of fun, but be prepared for the crowded aisles.
