I've been a regular customer for years. Because my kids take after school classes nearby, I'm here multiple times a week while I wait. I always buy food and a drink and sometimes chocolate bars, too, and the experience has always been extremely pleasant. So I was disappointed that today, at the same time I'm there every week, I was asked to leave because I had my laptop out. I was not aware of this policy, though of course I understand why such policies exist. However, the cafe was empty at the time. There was no one waiting for a table. The only customers were me and one other person-- and I wasn't asked to put my laptop away but to leave. I'm sorry to lose what has been a cozy spot to have a bite and do some writing, but fortunately there are lots of other nice cafes in the neighborhood. I'd rather spend my money someplace where I am treated courteously.

The most mazing beverage for me recently was with matcha. The dark chocolate is excellent as well. Service is very gracious. If only there were more space...

LOVE LOVE LOVE. The BESTTTT hot chocolate in all of Berkeley and can confidently say that I've had in my life. I've been going here for probably 3 years when I need a pick me up or craving chocolate and have never been disappointed. I've tried their hot chocolates, their coffees (the mocha is amazing), their pastries, you literally cannot go wrong. Everyone there is so sweet, have never had a bad experience. It's really small inside, always pretty crowded with people studying or reading. It's a bit of a hike from campus but worth it.

It is so rare to find a beautiful niche being perfected. I love chocolate and had one of the best cups of dark hot chocolate in my life.

I love this place as an alternative to a coffee shop or a bar. Their chocolate drinks are super quality and they are open late so it's a great place to chat with a friend or get some work done, especially on weekdays!Dietary restrictions: Lots of great gluten free dessert options !

The "bittersweet" from the menu is too sweet for me, but if you're like me, ask for the "zero sugar" option with no milk. It's awesome, like a cacao espresso or something.

The service is great. I wish there was more seating. The vibes are here and my drink was so tasty. I just wish it was warmer. It got cold within a couple minutes of having it. The experience is unique. I recommend

What an absolutely lovely little cafe. I love the bittersweet hot cocoa which is perfectly balanced, and rich. A quiet spot to sip on a rainy winter day.
Awesome chocolate drinks.
