Pine & Fancy Sweet Memories

Always love coming to this store to find little treats I can't get at the grocery store. The store employees are always friendly and kind. It is a smaller store so it has limited space to move around but as long as you are patient you'll have a great time. I usually stick to the left side of the store where most of the candies are. They usually have fun little tins of candies that are themed (legend of Zelda, marvel, minions, etc) They have plush animals and toys on the other side of the store. Can't wait to return for more treats :)

It's less of a candy store and more of a pixie stick store with over priced cheap toys. Such a disappointment. It used to be a great place to get cool gifts, but now it's not worth the trip. Almost all their specialty" candies can be found for much cheaper at other places around the city.The cashier was absolutely terrible. Spent most of her time gossiping inappropriately on the phone and only got off it to be rude and racial to a dark skinned couple that came in after us. We left the store as she was chasing them out.Not impressed on so many levels."

Layla was a true professional. Saw her interact with other young customers paying for their candy with their allowance monies, it was really sweet. She knows her candy, and I left with a bag of retro sour gums that they are stopping production on. Cool shop, and recommend visiting it

Great place to get your sweets from and feel total nostalgia. So many candy's I used to get and a bunch of new ones to try as well. If it's candy and you wanna try it come here and they should have it. Do you enjoy burning hot candy challenges as well. Come on down and see if you got the belly for it. Plus you can't go wrong with chocolate in the form of a slice of pizza.

It is always the best toys and sweet sale store in Saskatoon.Even now it is during pandemic, they still open and serve very kind and helpful.Not many fairy stuffs on store for now, somehow you still can find lots of sweets or candies something to eat in good price.I love the fairy display on the top of walk and near the window. It is cute, you may want to bring them back home.

A nice little store. Somethings you see everywhere, some things you don't. But still enough of a selection for me to spend a small fortune on lol. I only wish they had oddly flavoured soft drinks which was why I originally stopped in.

Hopefully it was because of covid that the store i loved to visit was missing a lot of the candy it used to have, thats totally understandable. Prices were a little high and the product i got was not very fresh. I hope in the future it returns to the store it used to be.

I’ve enjoyed going to all the locations of this small local chain to get harder to find candy from childhood. I’ve been to the Lawson, Waskesiu, and Centre Mall locations. They were always well stocked and I was always satisfied with the quality of my purchases. My most recent visit was pretty disappointing however. I went to the Circle Mall location to get some salt water taffy, because I’d recently got a bag at a gas station that was pretty good but didn’t have much variety in flavours. I had no problem at all with the staff person or the service, but the location itself was pretty barren in terms of inventory - particularly the bulk bins, which didn’t make sense to me because the staff person has to fill from the bulk bins anyway so I saw no reason to let them get so empty in terms of the pandemic. Since it’s one of the few places you can still get bulk candy of your choice rather than a pre-filled cup or bag, you would think they would be the right place to go for that since they’re a smaller store and the bins can be supervised. Not only that, but the bag of salt water taffy I left with was absolutely terrible. Most of them were hard and dried out, and they tasted stale/rancid like when a cooking oil or grains go rancid. I haven’t been to any of their locations during the pandemic until now, so I’m not sure if that is the main contributing factor or if it went downhill after the rainbow theatre down the hall closed, but either way it felt like they were preparing to close their doors for good which is a bummer and I hope is not the case. I might check out the Lawson location sometime soon for comparison but I don’t think I’ll be making a trip across the city to go back to the one at Centre Mall anytime soon. If the owners are reading this you have a really cool store, I hope you’re not closing, and I hope I just went during an off-time or something. In the past I would have rated it a 4 or 5 stars but my last visit was a 2 at best, so 3 it is.

My daughter and I love this store. I have been going here since I was a kid and I'm just passing down the magic my daughter sees this place as. Like I did.

An okay selection of pacakged imported candy but a terrible selection of bulk candy pieces and very overpriced as a whole. The staff generally does not know what they have in the store. A huge selection of toys and stuffed animals which is too bad because they used to carry a better selection of treats but now it’s half toy store half candy store and not doing either very well. Last night I asked the staff member if they had an item and she said no so I decided not just browse around and found the item. I guess if I’d taken her word for it I would have had to buy it online.
