Very subjective, but better chocolates than Videri.

Chocolates and ice cream. Not a bad selection. Worth returning to...

Bad, slow, service. Lots of staff present but orders take 10 minutes for basic coffee. Not worth the trip.

The peanut butter hot chocolate is now one of my very favorite things in the whole world!!!

Been going there for more than 15 years, they were the best. Since they moved to their new location it's changed, no push-up pops, not allowed to customize drinks, & doesn't seem the the same. They do have more products. But maybe not enough to make me drive 45 minutes for chocolates, ice cream & drinks.

We enjoyed our vanilla latte. There is a nice patio area for sitting outside. I can’t wait to come back and try their hot chocolate when it is a little cooler outside.

Otherworldly chocolate. The flavor profiles of their truffles and bars are complex, the ingredients very well matched. Their plain chocolate bars are simpler in flavor but the quality of the product is extremely evident. I would highly, highly, HIGHLY -- and I never use all caps -- recommend you buy as much of the goats' milk bars as you possibly can if you consider yourself a lover of fine chocolate. At 60% cacao it's intense, but the goats' milk lends a pronounced dairy flavor and, to a lesser extent, texture. I've been there 4 or so times and there hasn't been anything that wasn't very good.

Saw this on ABC’s Localish and had to check it out. Didn’t disappoint. Had the Peanut Hot Chocolate (Amazing!) and the mint truffle.

We are from out of town and so looked forward to going out of the way to grab some amazing and creative chocolate. Not sure we will make the effort going forward. We’ve been dropping in for several years and, candidly, the standards just aren’t there any more. The flavors used to be so pronounced and perfect. The textures, heavenly. Not so much the past several trips. Yesterday was the worst. Lemon cayenne has always been our favorite. The filling was gritty and not the quality of flavor and heat that it used to be. Some flavors you barely get a hint of its namesake. So unfortunate…….we want to love it. We spent over $70 yesterday for a few chocolates. For that price point, they should be amazing.
