I used to work just round the corner from here but it took me waaaay too long to find it.
A complete Aladdin's cave of old school confectionery, from licorice twists to rhubabrb and custards, to sherbert dib dabs.
Payign a visit is like stepping back in time to when sweets were stored in massive jars and came in 'quarters'; and you had to save up your pocket money to buy the really good stuff.
It's a bit of a tourist trap to be sure, but don't let that put you off.
