Super cute, delicious drinks! This was a great place to sit and chat and catch up with a friend. I had the iced Cuban latte, which was the right amount of sweetness for me.

I'm really glad I stopped here. The food and my latte were absolutely delicious. It's not a super cozy place, which is what I usually look for in a coffee shop, but this is a little bit more of a restaurant vibe and they were busy enough to need the extra space.

A surprisingly upscale and modern coffee bar that distinguishes itself from the typical offerings of the area. With a sprawling layout that includes a coffee bar, additional seating favored by locals, and an event area, it caters to a variety of needs and preferences.The menu boasts novel and bold coffee concoctions with unique flavors like tiramisu and salted caramel lattes, appealing to those seeking something out of the ordinary. However, traditional coffee lovers can still find solace in a well-made mocha or cortado, although the execution of these classics, particularly the mocha, might not meet the expectations of coffee aficionados due to issues with sweetness, temperature, and frothing.Despite these drawbacks, The Chocolate Bar offers a refreshing and modern take on the coffee scene in Grand Island, making it a noteworthy destination for both visitors and locals alike. It stands out as a vibrant spot in the city, providing a much-needed alternative to diner coffee and traditional "espresso" bars.

Sometimes you can find the perfect lunch in the most unusual places . I was going to go to a chain restaurant for lunch but was really hoping for more local experience. The chocolate Bar delivered in huge style . This is located in the historic downtown of grand island Nebraska. It's an unlikely place to find a swank and Uber cool brunch spot . The Chocolate Bar has style . I could hope to find a place like this in Denver, or Chicago or even Vegas but finding it here in this small Midwest town is even better! The coffee was delicious. The chocolate truffles were rich and amazingly refined . I had a Cobb salad for lunch and sat at the counter . The vibe was perfect. From the music ( tears for fears,Thank You) , to the friendly service to the perfectly casual moments everyone was enjoying in the packed classic restaurant , every was right on . I also indulged in a slice of almond cake . Prices were reasonable. Selection is not huge but it's just right. Seating is ample but the place was very busy on a late Saturday morning. Come relaxed . This is not a fast food place. Be ready to enjoy your meal and sit to talk and eat some chocolate.

I loved the food. The presentation was great, the flavors complex and the dessert was decedent. It's a cute place with a back room for parties, but the front area where we sat felt crowded even though the restaurant wasn't busy. The decor is a bit plain, which added to my surprise how nicely our food and drinks were presented. Although the prices are on the upper end, it was all worth it. The service was friendly and quick. I will definitely return for the dessert and coffee alone

Much of the food was very good, but the prime rib was under-seasoned.

Another phenomenal place to grab a bite to eat or just have cocktails but never skip the chocolate! The vibe was perfect I would highly recommend when in Grand Island, Nebraska The Maple caramel was divine

This place is so accommodating! I came in a little early before dinner service started. I had a Sunkissed Paloma which was incredible! The Mojito was delicious also! Melody was my server and did fantastic! I ordered the Shrimp Rigatoni ...... PERFECT!! Portion was huge! ( I will be eating on it for a few meals!

Food was fantastic! They serve prime rib Friday Saturday nights. The venue is very satisfying and worth every penny. I hope you get on your feet and come eat it

I hosted a book signing event at the Chocolate Bar just days before Christmas (2023) and it went fantastic. Jen was so amazing to work with. She was available for planning and willing to adjust to my needs. The room was set up just as I had requested. The event was a huge success, and the room was packed...the staff was so warm to all of the attendants! After it was over, I enjoyed a delicious meal from their menu in the dining area, where I received incredible customer service. Great Job, Chocolate Bar!

We used the Chocolate Bar’s catering service to order wraps (Thai chicken, turkey berry & Swiss, and buffalo chicken) for a bridal shower this weekend. Their communication was very timely and they were so friendly to work with! When we picked up our order, the wraps were individually wrapped for added freshness. They were a BIG hit and I know that many of our guests will be visiting the Chocolate Bar to order more! Thank you!!
