I must agree with the other reviewers, the workers were both very rude and unhelpful. I had asked what a specific flavor was and the one girl pointed to the description and did not speak to me or offer a sample or recommendation. Also, the fudge was OK, nothing to brag about (and I'm not just saying this because of... more

Having lived on Nantucket for many years, I have had the occasion to go to this fudge/candy store. The owner is someone I am acquainted with and have had various dealings with. She can occasionally be friendly in the store, but usually seems a bit exasperated and a little unwelcoming. This is her normal manner when there, and sometimes even... more

My 7 year old was saving up her money to buy fudge. She ultimately bought some gum and her nickel was sneered at and she was advised to take her business somewhere else. How do these people stay in business if they're so surly?? I've found similar reviews from other disappointed patrons. Stay away if you have kids. Mean service.... more

The fudge was delicious - a little stale though (hard around edges), but good. Pretty expensive in my opinion ($9.99 for a 1/2 lb) but it's a souvenier, on Nantucket, what do you expect, I guess? The staff was kind of pushy, very salesy, instead of waiting on 1 person at a time, she was waiting on 3 of us.... more

I am from New Jersey and visit family each year in Nantucket. The one place that we visit religiously each year is Aunt Leah's Fudge. All my friends in Jersey give me their orders for what we consider the "best fudge on Earth". I have yet to get a flavor that I don't like. The service is superb and always... more

Being in the tourist industry on Cape Cod, when my wife and I travel, we are always sensitive to customer service and quality of products in other hotels, restaurants, and shops. While buying fudge at Aunt Leah's I overheard a tourist asking for information about locating an ice cream shop that sold italian ice. The customer was met with a... more

We had a wonderful time in Nantucket! We had Aunt Leah's Fudge shop on our "to do" list based on tripadvior reviews. It was difficult to find - it is on the main street but hidden back in a courtyard, we would have never found it if we hadn't asked someone for directions. The store is very small and crowded.... more

Wonderful

You don't find better fudge anywhere than Aunt Leah's fudge. The staff is friendly and helpful and the fudge is to die for. It is impossible to try once and not go back for more. Any candy lovers, or people looking to try a fantastic treat in general -- Aunt Leah's fudge is strongly recommended. And the best part is,... more
