  • From my guide, updated September 2026.

Spanning 7,800 square feet, getting lost at the Hershey’s Chocolate World is a not out of the question. The smell of this place instantly takes me back to fond childhood memories of roasting s’mores around a campfire. If you’re visiting Times Square with kids, this a must-do.

Enjoy cookies, s’mores, cupcakes, and frozen goodies like Reese’s Peanut Butter milkshakes. This one of the most popular attractions in Times Square for families. And with the ability to customize your own candy bar wrapper, it’s a great spot to pick up some souvenirs for loved ones back home.
