Gilbert Pecan Co

I discovered this store from Leanne Morgan posting about it on social media. I checked out their website and saw that it was located in Texas, but they shipped anywhere in the US. I placed my first order this past summer and ordered a bunch of samplers, one of which contained chocolate. The woman at the store that was processing my order, noticed it was going to be shipped to me in Oregon. She called me directly and let me know that I might want to switch the chocolates for something else because she was worried they would melt in route as it was still really hot in Texas at the time. I really appreciated the personal touch and the care she provided. I switched out my order to a different sampler and it arrived perfectly. Everything was delicious and high quality. I just placed a second order last week for Christmas presents. It arrived quickly and everything was packaged with care. I’m looking forward to gifting these to family and friends!

Happened to see some chocolate and toffee covered almonds for sale at a nearby gas station on my way to work, decided to buy them seeing the fair price for the quantity. Absolutely amazing!! I hope y'all expand into East Texas where I live!

Goin down hill Gilbert. I have been a loyal customer. Check my purchase history. I placed an order on the 17th, received a tracking number but UPS has not received package. I call the store an was informed they are awaiting an item I ordered and it would be next week. No mention on website of items out of stock and no contact from Gilberts to inform me. Gilberts you owe your customers better customer service. Don't blame on the holidays. Monitor your inventories, up date your website. Inform your customer of shortages causing delay.Order #125288

Never had a bad experience there, except this last visit. I stopped for almond brittle for my mother and in every single bag (about 5) the pieces were all melted together and solid as a rock. I brought it to the cashiers attention and she took a bag into the back of the store to see if there were anymore. Then she came out and said that she had been able to "unstick" the pieces in the original bag "easily". I took the bag and saw alot of pulverized pieces and crumbs. They didn't have anymore in the back, so I asked her if they would discount the bag. The manager came out from the back and said "No. They will sell just fine as is." No smile, not any sort of greeting. She proceeded to take the candy, put it back on the shelf, and walked into the back of the store. Staring at me the entire time. So rude. I am a customer and was treated very badly. I've stopped there at least a half dozen times in the past and bought almond brittle and treated nicely. Idk if I'll ever return. I feel bad for whoever bought the lumps of brittle at full price, they will need a hammer to break them apart.

All of the merchandise I have had is very good and the price is good. We love the spicy and sweet pecan. The pineapple is the best.

When on the road here is a clean restroom to wash up. Candy, coffee, hand dipped ice cream just for a few. And for the want to go back some time, you can hit their web site, and yes a home made pecan pie for Thanksgiving or Christmas. Worth a look.

Friendly Staff, Place is clean. Plenty of different flavored pecans. My favorites are Sweet & Spicy Praline Coated Dark Chocolate Coated Must have are their ice cream Praline Pecan Cream & Butter Cream are awesome They have souvenirs & fudge

Amazing service and fantastic products, and more than just pecans. We love their Texas Pecans! We've been a loyal customer for over 25 years. Please take your time and visit. This is a must visit recommendation.

A great place for goodies and friendly staff. I like to buy stocking stuffers here for Christmas as well.

My daughter was traveling through, and saw it packed with vehicles, which she assumed was great, stopped and picked us up a pecan pie. Turns out, the pecan pie is OUTSTANDING! Glad she stopped and picked us a pie.

To start, everyone knows how expensive pecans are. Well, this place ain't cheap! But this place is also AWESOME! First time here, just browsed. Then I received some of the sweet and spicy mix as a gift. It was fantastic! My brothers and I stopped in to get something. The selection is astronomically huge! Any kind of pecan your heart desires, they've got it. Chocolate covered everything. Spicy, sweet, salty, cinnamon, and many more. Of course the habanero pecans caught my eye. She said, want a sample? Hell yes! OMG, so good, and VERY spicy! Yep, I walked out with $60 worth of pecans. And I'm going back this weekend! Join me!

I ended up going to Gilbert's after buying pecans in local markets that were persistently rancid. They did not disappoint! Been getting my pecans from them ever since!

Honestly, this was one of my favorite things about our entire anniversary road trip! At the time I was extremely car sick and hating life and people and 2020, so the fact that this place turned my mood around, when we were just stopping to use a restroom, is a miracle in itself! We stopped in on a Wednesday, 8/26/20, early afternoon. There were a few other customers wrapping up purchases and Stephanie appeared to be the only employee. I wasn't looking for help, I was wandering around in awe at how many things they fit into one building- think mini Buc-ee's without gas pumps or a car wash (I don't know, I guess you could count the Shell next door... sorta). However, Stephanie was attentive, made suggestions, offered samples and was so upbeat and helpful! She's an absolute ray of sunshine! If I had more Stephanie's in my life, I would have zero complaints! Really, she made the trip outstanding! This is a wonderful stop for snacks, gifts, souvenirs! There's an amazing selection of pecans (I just didn't know how many ways they could mix these including spicy and savory options), pies, fudge, honey, jams, coffee (yes, yummy pecan coffee too), ice cream, olive oil, mixed nuts and home décor. They have the funniest kitchen towels! I had a sample of the cookies n cream fudge and it was delicious! It had a creamy texture and literally melted in my mouth. I think it's genius that they have single serving sizes of different flavored fudge prepackaged with a spoon! They also have a lunch selection in a cooler to the left, which had been hit pretty hard that day but still had enough options that I noticed several burgers and sandwiches. I also saw sausage and cheese at the front and there were multiple samplers. I honestly regret that my description and list of offerings cannot do this place justice. I wish I was a better writer so I could convey to you the full experience and how varied the selection truly is. You'll just have to check it out for yourself, I certainly recommend you do! We were very happy with our purchase of honey, coffee and honey roasted pecans (boring I know, but my favorite) and will definitely return when our next road trip brings us in this direction. It's worth the stop and the experience.

Easy access if you are heading west bound from Ft. Worth. Good selection, unfortunately they are rude and have the "don't bother me" attitude. Will never darken the doors of this place again. And neither shall any of my family, a shame was we pass by 4-5 times a month.

Super nice store with a huge variety of pecan products as well as fudge cut to order, Blue Bell Ice Cream, coffee, gifts. Also food to go - sandwiches, quiche, salads. Or dine at the picnic tables outside in the shade. Very nice staff. Very clean store and restroom. Everyone wearing a mask. Easy off and on the freeway. Lots of parking. Worth a stop!

Very fresh lots of pecans. Clean atmosphere, the store has lots of options! Try them, you want be disappointed!

These are my favorite pecans. I have purchased so many bags for myself, friends and family. The pecans are huge like they have steroids in them. They have a couple of types of pecans as well. This place is a treat. The location is a bit outside of Dallas but worth the drive for quality pecans.

I was driving from Dallas to Los Angeles and found this spot on the way. I love pecans and couldn't resist stopping in. Bought a five pound bag and half way home regretted that I didn't get more. So, every month or two I ordered a couple of bags shipped to me. My wife usually eats more of them than I do.

This is a small family owned company that sells pecans, some candy and a few other nuts. The owner told me this year is a good year for the quality and quantity of pecans. We bought a large bag of shelled pecans to use for Christmas cookies and dishes. We can't wait to try them.

I cannot deliver enough praise for how much my hubs and I adore this store! The quality is second to none and the service is always friendly and hospitable! The nut selection, besides pecans, is outstanding! They've got sugar free items too and that's a plus! fudge, Pies, Snacks galore! If you are passing through Santo and you don't stop, ya are truly missing out!! One of our favorite spots!

Great items! Excellent quality and fresh products. Super place to buy gifts for your business associates or employees.

This is the cutest shop! Lots of options from pies, to fudge, to lots of prepackaged nuts and brittle. Other cute gifts as well. Definitely on my list to stop when driving by going forward!!!

Every time we are out here we stop here and get a variety of pecans. You can't go wrong a stop here if you love pecans. You can order on line also.

We saw a billboard for pecans And fresh lemonade so we decided to try and find it . Great location . Easy to find . Delicious fresh pecans . Delicious tea and lemonade .

They have such a great assortment of pecans including slenda flavored. They are so fresh and let you try samples of the variety they offer! The staff is so nice as well! There's other nice treats like honey and candy! I highly recommend this place if you like nuts!

I sometimes stop by here on my daily return trip from Dallas. The customer service is always top-notch. The product selection is always of the highest quality, but the best part is the fudge. It seems there is always some seasonal creation that tempts you, and it never fails to please. I buy pecans there for my raw-food diet, and I have never had hulls or moldy pecans. The local honey [you have to ask for it] is very dark and delicious. I will be a loyal customer for a long time. p.s. the fudge is for my sons. There is nothing raw, or vegan about delectable fudge.

Great stop for your sweet tooth! Service is friendly and the variety is nice for pecan lovers

Driving between DFW and Abilene? Must stop! Great pecans, gifts, and free coffee. Only 1 bathroom so not the best pit stop but a great local, quirky place.

Clean, fresh chopped or halves pecans. Brittles, dried fruits, assorted fudge, drinks, T-shirts, caps, pecan shellers, so much to see and best of all, free samples Yumm! There's a good selection of Splenda sweetened products, too. For the low carbers, there's a bag of ground pecan meal that can substitute for flour in recipes.

I just ordered some of the mixed raw nuts, pralines, fruitcake and pumpkin orange cranberry cake to take to visit friends on Thanksgiving. That last thing is the only one I haven't eaten yet, but it looks beautiful. I was very pleased with the customer service, too.

This shop is great. We travel between west Texas and Dallas quite often. We have always seen the shop from the highway, we just never had the chance to stop on. We purchased $100 worth of goodies, pecan brittle, pecans, ice cream, T-shirt's as souvenirs and chocolate covered nuts. Pecan brittle is to die for. Everything is great! We had the pleasure of being rang up by an adorable little girl learning the business (alongside the cashier, of course). The only negative thing to say is the unfriendliness is the older woman with a blonde bob cut and glasses. It's unfortunate to have not been greeted with a "welcome, let me know if I can help you with anything" while all others after us, were. However, I understand and some still have some growing to do. Even at such a wise age. All in all, we will be back with very high hopes of receiving some great customer service the second time around. 5 stars is a representation of the product.

Great Assortment of Nuts & Candy!! Friendly too! We buy pictures & other fun novelties. The fudge is pretty good too!

Absolutely delicious place to stop! The candied pecans are such a favorite that my husband gives them for corporate gifts every year and people always want more! We have tried almost every variety they make but the Sweet & Spicy and Aunt Nancy's flavors are favorites because of their sugary cinnamon, Christmas-like flavors. The chocolate covered amaretto pecans are phenomenal as well. Take a moment to stop here, it is well worth your time and a perfect place to pick up thank you gifts and treats for friends! They have beautiful sampler party platters and gift wrapped baskets so you don't show up empty handed at your final destination. The free samples of brittle are worth the stop alone! Can not recommend this little pecan shop enough!

Coolest Pecan stop I've ever been too. Every option imaginable. They have an assortment of pies as well. Must try the fudge. They even offer samples to get a little taste of there home made products. You can order online as well.

Very fun stop on our road trip with free samples of fudge and free brittle samples is well. They were all delicious! We purchased pecan turtles which are my favoritewhich your my very favorite I am so happy with this place.

Owner rude when I had a problem with a product. Her answer is if I don't like it don't buy from her. Okay I won't and I'll be sure to tell others not to eithier. Had problems with quality control last year also.
