Tried 9 different flavours which were all 10/10. Friendly staff and helpful for food allergy information.

Stopped by today for a cappuccino and some treats. Delicious coffee and their chocolate is amazing!
I built a custom box of chocolates today and purchased their homemade marshmallows covered in chocolate for a friend. I have never been disappointed in their products.

Very good sweets. A bit pricey but the food quality makes up for it.

I’ve been going here for a few years, especially with it being one of the only cafes near NSCAD. I feel like in the past bit the cafe has slowly become more and more elitists and tourists focused, I could definitely see the difference in service between me and the couple in-front of me, that just made me feel a little othered. Also another thing is $6 is already really expensive for a small coffee, I left a 10% tip as always and went back to check my bank statements and the small late with vanilla was $7.14- which is just crazy. And the person making my drink only filled the cup 3/4 full at most. Not sure if I feel like its worth it to go back.

We discovered Rousseau during Covid in our attempt to support local. I will never buy chocolate elsewhere again. Their quality and craftsmanship is unmatched. I appreciate the cute gift boxes for each occasion and season. Our girls in particular love receiving the Easter eggs. They also make great gifts.

I already purchased my Easter chocolate from Rousseau this year. The best chocolate ever. It’s tradition to have my large egg. So beautiful !! And of course I love the sea beings. I love everything about this place. Top notch products & service - every time !!

Their chocolates and treats are amazing—but don’t miss the ice cream sundaes! They’re seriously next-level and just as crave-worthy as everything else in the shop.

Nothing better! I have had chocolate all over, and NOTHING compares to Rousseau. So creamy and even flavors I don't usually like (strawberry) is truly indulgent, velvety and has actual strawberries in it! And I met the owners, they are more than wonderful. 100% recommend! Just do it. Go! You won't regret it.

My professor loved this! She's from Paris and she was missing home so I got her some chocolates and macarons from here! They were delicious! She gave me a macaron and omg, so so yummy! So fresh! I wish I remembered to take photos, but I forgot to.
Outstanding chocolate and pastries. Most beautiful - and quiet - coffee shop.

Macaroons were generally tasteless and cloyingly sweet a waste of $28. I would not recommend. Pleasant counter help.

The location is excellent, making it a convenient spot to relax. The shop itself is clean and beautifully designed. The service was exceptional; the staff were friendly. However, the food fell short of expectations. I ordered a brownie that was unfortunately stale. The waitress kindly replaced it, but the second one was just as unappetizing and very much just as stale. I was surpised to hear her say it was baked that day. As a matcha enthusiast, I was disappointed with the matcha latte. It had clumps of powder that ruined the texture and very strong grassy taste. I also tried their tea, but the cup had this strong fishy smell to it that just ruined the experience. I was excited about the chocolate macaron, but it tasted quite plain; while I appreciate less sweetness, the chocolate flavor wasn’t as strong as I had hoped. On a positive note, I found the pistachio and lemon macarons delightful and would definitely order them again. Overall, I want to emphasize that my review isn’t meant to slander; it reflects my experience. The staff were lovely and the store was cozy. I would consider returning to try their chocolates.
