If you're looking for a place to leave your car, and Main Street is packed with no spots open... just do what the name tells you. "Park" down the "Side". Duh! I'm serious actually. If you go down the street right next to PSC (that's my new acronym for Parkside Candy) then you'll see a little, old, weird lot behind the building, that is perfectly adequate for you to leave your car in. You can park there! Right on the side! Isn't that awesome?! Great! Now... Don't say I never did anything for you!
Set in an old movie theater, it's vital that you walk in here just to experience it. It's like nowhere else you'll go, you feel like you're going back in time to old school Buffalo. I absolutely loved the experience. There's another Parkside further north, Colvin north of Sheridan I think, but it's nowhere near as cool looking as this one. That has nothing to do with the products though, so we'll move on to those.
Parkside Candy is a really, really awesome store. I quite like the Sponge Candy from here, though I wouldn't say it's off the charts amazing by any means. I also tried some of the fudge from here, and it was pretty good, although I didn't finish it.
I have yet to try their ice cream and milkshakes but I will definitely give them a try next time I am around. You have to visit PC if only for the atmosphere, as previously described. The employees aren't always as friendly as they are at certain other chocolate shops (cough cough, Condrells), but it's well worth a trip just to check out the amazing old building and the large selection of cool things.
