Cashier was very rude and arrogant. Worst customer service I’ve experienced in Boston. Thinking Cup has great hot chocolate and less attitude!

I literally cannot tell you how bad the service was. First. I asked the manager if I could change the ribbon color to a different one. He said “I don’t understand what you’re saying”. English is not my first language but I think I asked a very clear question. I already felt weird. Then I bought a box and stepped out for literally a few seconds. I realized that I picked a wrong box and asked the staff next to him if I could exchange. She was going to help me but he told her that he will “address the issue” He said since I left the shop he couldn’t change it. I argued that I literally left for a few seconds and the box was literally sealed. He went, “I wouldn’t know, would I? I was helping another customer.” I completely understand that shops can’t exchange food but I literally stepped out for a few seconds? And he really did not have to give me that attitude and insinuate that I did something to this perfectly sealed box of chocolate within a few seconds. I also noticed that most of the bad reviews here are about him. He needs a 360 review

I had bought a milk sipping chocolate & a cookie from the shop & it was great! The sipping chocolate wasn't scalding hot & the cookie was perfectly warmed. The staff there were so kind & quick with their service & the shop is a small cute, quaint spot in the city. Definitely adding this to list of favorite chocolate shops!

I love the white chocolate from L.A. Burdick chocolate, it’s the best one. I ordered a vegan Apple tarter as well what it was delicious. But the cashier was very salty to answer my questions when I tried to order a croissant (“we’re not selling it”) or if she could warm up my Apple tarte (“No!”). I hope it’s just in a bad day and don’t do that with all her customers.

The dark hot chocolate here is awesome, tastes like you’re drinking melted chocolate. They also have a great selection of chocolates to choose from.

Best chocolate walnut cookie, gooey yet still holds together. Got the Irish collection with 2 Sheep and the everyday assortment with 2 Mice for coworkers. ?

Horribly rude manager. I absolutely love L.A Burdick, and worked at the Cambridge location back in high school. I visited the Boston location today, and asked for extra whipped cream, and said I was willing and happy to pay extra for it. The first barista said that it comes with the item I purchased, so great! I then noticed the less than a tablespoon amount (no exaggeration it was about a teaspoon), and asked for once again, extra and I repeated that I was happy to pay for it, even if they had given me a ridiculous amount. They try to add barely another tea spoon amount, and he forced me to pay for it, in a horrible tone. As someone who had no issue purchasing the extra amount (and did) with a smile on my face, I expect respect and decent customer service to follow. Now especially after working for this company, I know exactly how I was trained and how this encounter was bizzare. It goes beyond something so small like whipped cream, but it’s the simple human decency of seeing why a customer asked the same question multiple times, and still not fulfilling a request so easy. He is a bitter man, and I hope he either changes his behavior, or someone who is more suited for this position is considered.

If this was what Willy Wonka was serving, I would've been one of those bad ass kids who got kicked out early for eating everything. This chocolate is delicious.
