A fun store to visit, with a cool restaurant and lots of great treats. The tour, given by Pete, the owner, took us through all three floors of the shop, and gave us insights on the building of the business, the making of chocolate, and a bit of the history of the location. A definite must-visit when in Jacksonville.

We enjoyed the tour. The operation was much smaller then we expected, but it's amazing all the candy that is available for sale. The ones we tried were really good. We also enjoyed all of the decorations for the Halloween season. The ice cream was delicious also!

      Fun time at sweet Pete's

      Claudia_R, Nov 2025
      This was a fun time with a lot of history behind it. Just a thought, you should think about opening up the basement for a visit

      It was a cute place! Nice to know they offer candy making classes! You get one free chocolate bar with three ingredients you choose with the tour.

      Not for us

      Brittany_E, Jun 2025
      Small location and boring. My kids were ready to leave because it was not entertaining. Maybe if we did a class but this one I wouldn’t recommend.

      Great experience for the price. We even received a personalized custom made candy bar. It was like being in the Willie Wonka factory. This is a must do your in downtown Jacksonville. Bring your camera to take pictures.

      Very informative and a fun experience. Located in downtown Jacksonville. We chose this experience to give us a break from our long journey, and it met those expectations. Did take us a few minutes to find parking.

      Sweet Treat in Jacksonville

      Traci_B, Dec 2024
      Cool building, seasonally decorated, kind staff, food & drink onsite, lots of items to purchase. Park in a nearby garage during the week - street parking on weekend around City Hall.

      Delicious chocolate 🍫 and friendly staff

      Rosaura_S, Nov 2024
      The customized chocolate was delicious and the staff were extremely friendly. One disadvantage was the tour was short.

      Sweet Pete's was an awesome treat!

      Kimberly_B, Jul 2024
      It was a great experience. We learned the history of PeterBrookes and Sweet Pete's. We toured the candy factory and ate at the restaurant. Sweet Pete's is a hidden gem. There's also a kid's playroom there, they also host parties! It's downtown in a central location.

      A Sweet Ending Tour

      Robin_B, Jul 2024
      I enjoyed the experience of the different candies and the history. The chocolate bar at the end with my choice of toppings was a plus.

      Fun!

      Kristine_M, Jun 2024
      This was amazing. I didn't expect to enjoy it so much. I thought it was mainly for kids but it's great for adults too. They have a restaurant which has alcoholic sweet drinks. They make you a customized chocolate bar (complimentary when you do the tour). The guide was so funny and informative. I wish Pete would open another location preferably in Dallas lol. The chocolate is amazing! This is a must see

      Sweet and Happy 😊

      Lavette_B, Apr 2024
      The sight of all the candy and sweets , the colors and decorations made me feel like I was in the move, Willy Wonka & the chocolate factory.😊

      Yummy

      Larry_F, Mar 2024
