Sarris Candies

Sarris chocolate bars here save you a trip to Canonsburg

This Sarris Candies shop sits in the Main terminal at Pittsburgh International Airport, past security, so you can grab gifts after clearing TSA. It’s a small storefront, but it carries the core Sarris hits locals know from the Canonsburg factory store: boxed chocolates, seasonal molds, and those oversized bars with the bright retro wrappers.

Figure on around $3–$5 for single bars and novelty pieces, with assorted boxed chocolates and gift tins climbing into the $15–$30 range depending on size. Prices run a bit higher than at grocery stores in Pittsburgh, but not by airport-souvenir standards, and you’re paying for the real Western PA brand instead of generic candy.

Look for classics like peanut butter meltaways, pretzel rods dipped in milk chocolate, and milk-chocolate-covered Oreos; those travel well and don’t need refrigeration for the length of a typical 2–5 hour domestic flight. Larger assortments come in rigid boxes that survive the overhead bin better than loose bags, especially if your connection keeps you on the move through Main.

Hours at PIT skew to flight banks, roughly early morning through early evening, but individual days can shift with traffic, especially outside the 6 a.m.–8 p.m. window. If you land late on a 9 p.m. arrival into Main, don’t count on it being open; treat this as a daytime stop, not a red-eye safety net.

Quick tip: grab any fragile chocolate-covered pretzels last and ask for a small bag instead of stuffing the box in your personal item, so the rods don’t snap under your laptop or water bottle during boarding at Pittsburgh.
