If you like odd this is the place. Was looking for one of my favorite sodas [they were out] but they carry a really good selection of hard to find soda pop.

Even if you dont have a sweet tooth this candy store can suit your needs with its vast assortments of candy and soda from around the globe bouncing from England to Mexico to Japan while still having room for the clasics you will not be disappointed. As the name entails the also sell sodas of basically any flavor you can think of. If your strolling down town definitely check this place out its worth your while.

The person working there was incredibly knowledgeable about the various products available. He sold us some bubbglegum and pointed us towards a SLO staple — Bubblegum Alley!Whether we contributed to the rite of passage of many citizens before us Ill leave a mystery, but the bubblegum was great and so was he! (Plus the giant Vault Boy in the middle of the store was a cool addition to the space.)

#LocalGuides #RAWfotografia We were greeted upon entering, asked if we needed any help and were left to peruse the HUGE candy and soda pop selection they had! This place is amazing and never disappoints, I always look forward to stopping in when I am in SLO. Oh and they have this Kylo Ren display I want...

Incredible selection of odd drinks, snacks, and candies. The guy working when we came in was wonderfully helpful and friendly, I wish Id caught his name so I could mention him specifically. Great ecclectic little candy shop, definitely worth a stop if youre in the area.

They have great soda and candies. Everything from Bob Ross energy drinks to Bacon flavored soda. Some of the soda flavors are rather gross(dirt, ranch, bacon, etc.) But they also have some great choices including Harry Potter butter beer and things such as Stalinade or Doomsday Lemonade.

Review №21

Can you really not like a candy store? I am pretty sure I get a sugar high just walking around the store. But, I cant resist buying their gummy candy here. The most interesting stuff is the variety of sodas that they carry, very unique flavors. I also wouldnt think of varying quality of gummy bears but the staff knows their stuff. They also know where everything always is in the store and if they will be in stock with something else new.Get the minion tic-tacs :) please?

Its always a lot of fun going into this store. Its quirky and theres a lot of candy from places across the globe. The people who work there are really helpful and fun. If you go, get a bottle of ramune because its tasty.

Review №26

A fun place to go to with the kids if youre wealthy. They have a great selection of international treats and even a large old fashioned game console. The decor is very light hearted and youthful. The soda selection is also extremelt vast. Employees are helpful and know their candy. I just wish it wasnt so expensive.

Review №27

This store used to be so much better. The prices have grown ridiculous on their beverages and most other items have no price on them. I felt like I couldnt just look around without someone running over wanting to talk about what they liked. Very distracting when Im reminiscing with my wife about the stuff we used to get and picking what to buy. This happened over 4 times in the span of 5 minutes. I have no problem paying a premium for nostalgia goods, but $5 for a can of soda is pretty excessive.

Its not an afternoon in downtown SLO without a stop in to Rocket Fizz! The kids love the decorations and the huge selection of every candy imaginable. My husband and I love to get an assortment of root beer in our unending search to find the best. We love all the obscure/small business brands we can get there, right along side the more widely known brands. The staff is always friendly and seem like they have fun at work.

Review №29

A really cool and nerdy store with a great selection of international candy, but its obviously a little bit pricey. Seeing all those German Milka bars and those other goods made my German heart melt. Seeing some of the prices however froze it to a brick of ice. No just kidding, obviously you cant get imported candy for a better price. Other than that the store has lovely decorations and looks amazing

Went in there during farmers market for the first time. Staff was nice but no prices on anything. My child picked up a fan candy item. Was thinking maybe 5.00. They wanted 12.00. When scanned at register. The only price I found was on bulk Taffy. Expensive and no prices. Consumers beware.

Review №31

Great fun atmosphere, the store is packed full of pop culture props. The candy is a tad bit more expensive than a grocery store, but much cheaper than the nearby movie theaters. Great for getting candy to sneak into the theater!

Rocket Fizz has a large selection of candy, soda, and novelties. They are located in downtown San Luis Obispo where there are may other fun stores and restaurants. I purchased some Ritter Sport chocolates and some miscellaneous candies for my daughters.Yelpers get a 15% discount on their first purchase with a check in, which can add up if you buy a lot of candy.
