We’re an old-fashioned soda fountain, ice cream parlor, candy store, and coffee shop. We make all of our own Purity ice cream, the first manufacturer of ice cream in Texas. You can watch salt water taffy being made, which is just one of the things we’re known for.

Large & beautiful facility, but the chocolate was not as good as I expected... which is the reason you would visit such a place. Bummer.

Great little shop located in a cool historic building with all kinds of sweet treats. Including excellent taffy they make on site. It was interesting to watch how the taffy is made and wrapped.

Walking in you immediately feel welcomed. Everyone is so happy to be there. The variety is insane. Definitely something for everyone. Milkshakes are fantastic, chocolate is smooth, and the taffy is outstanding! They even put on a show showing how the taffy is made and will toss some out to the crowd. Highly recommend if your in Galveston.

This candy store is a must see when you visit Galveston! The architecture inside is absolutely amazing and the candy is delicious. They have an old fashioned soda jerk station where you can get malts, shakes, coffee, soda, tea, and more. They have fresh pulled taffy for sale and taffy making demos all day. The chocolate is rich and delicious- you can go wrong with any of them.

La King’s Confectionery is one of those places that instantly takes you back in time. From the moment you walk in, the old-fashioned atmosphere, friendly staff, and the smell of fresh sweets make the experience feel special.
My wife and I had an amazing time there. The staff was welcoming and patient, especially while we decided between all the options—they have everything from handcrafted chocolates to fresh taffy and classic sodas. Watching them make candy right in front of you adds a really fun touch.
The ice cream was incredible—rich, creamy, and full of flavor. You can tell everything is made with care and quality ingredients. On top of that, the service stood out. Everyone treated us kindly and made sure we had a great experience from start to finish.
Overall, La King’s Confectionery is more than just a dessert spot—it’s an experience. If you’re looking for a place with great treats, a unique vibe, and excellent service, this is definitely worth a visit.
