Marini's at the Beach

I used to go here as a kid and watch the taffy pulling machine gleefully. I happened to pass through SC last weekend and went to get a bag of mixed taffy for old time's sake, and it unfortunately tastes really bad. Some of the taffies are so small, the size of a dime inside a dollar-bill sized wrapper. The flavors were all muddled together, and the texture was grainy and strange. Definitely not good and far worse quality than the standard big name taffy distributor you can buy at other candy sho

A one stop shop for all your sweet dreams! Candy, chocolate, cotton candy, caramel apples plus caramel chocolate apples, salt water taffy that you can get a taste of, and so much more. We stopped to watch how cotton candy was made and left with three boxes of goodies. Love this spot if I need to fill up on my candy supply!

Young woman working in the afternoon on 4/24 seemed to hate her job. Also, excuse me, but if a tiny frappe costs 8-9$ and shows it comes with whip, wouldnt you think to tell your customer that you're out? Not lil miss Hates-her-job. I had to ask about it, and just get a noooo we're out of it today. Ok, then give me a damn discount off this inflated price and mediocre-at-best frappe, because i would've gone elsewhere if i knew that WHEN I WAS BUYING IT. 0 out of 10 experience. 0 out of 10 drink...

This place should be avoided at all costs. I witnessed a woman massaging melted chocolate with her bare, filthy hands and using the other hand to prop herself up - completely unsanitary. She was dipping chocolate pretzels this way, and it was disturbing and unacceptable. I demand a refund and can only hope I don't get food poisoning after the fact of seeing this. This establishment has been reported and needs immediate attention from health authorities.

We really loved the caramel apple we purchased here, it was lovely and fresh. The salt water taffy was good, but the caramel apple was definitely the highlight.
