Our Third Minnesota Location Brings the World Famous $5 Candy Buffet to the Twin Cities!
The expansion into the Land of 10,000 Lakes continues! Grandpa Joe’s Candy Shop is thrilled to announce the grand opening of our third Minnesota location, now officially open in Bloomington!
This new store, located at 9801 Nicollet Avenue South—just minutes from the Mall of America—joins our existing locations in Stillwater and Spring Lake Park.
The Full Grandpa Joe’s Experience
We’ve been hard at work revitalizing these locations to bring the full, nostalgic Grandpa Joe’s experience to the region. Customers can now dive into our signature offerings:
- The World Famous $5 Candy Buffet: Fill a box with all the bulk and nostalgic candy you can pack for just five dollars!
- Unique Treats and Sodas: Find an extensive selection of craft sodas, international treats, and, yes, our viral flavors like Pickle Cotton Candy and Ketchup Soda.
- A Happy Place: We are building on the beloved legacy of the former Blue Sun Soda Shop, even retaining staff members who ensure the same great soda experience.
Christopher J. Beers, Founder and Owner of Grandpa Joe’s Candy Shop, celebrated the opening, calling it a “significant achievement for our team” and emphasizing the excitement of introducing our wide variety of treats to the Bloomington community.
