WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING?
This is a wonderful space full of great people to help keep you motivated and focused.
Love everything about coworking!! I have met some awesome folks and business associates that hopefully will be lifelong friends.
Great space with an upbeat vibe.
A well built and conceived coworking space located in the thriving and hip Lancaster, PA. Run by genuine people driven by making a difference for all kinds of entrepreneurs.
Staying here in the Lancaster area for a month and needed a co-working space to work on some of my current projects. Found the Candy Factory, and could not be happier!! The atmosphere is great, everyone here is friendly and nice, plenty of room, right around the corner from PerkUp coffee and….well, 5 stars just aren’t quite enough. Thank you, Candy Factory, for letting me be part of your community for a short time. I’m looking forward to a couple more weeks of this!
I always feel very welcomed
The Candy Factory is a great place to create and thrive. I joined before the renovations and I’ve felt myself grow as the building grows. There have been many great opportunities for me here.
