If you love chocolate, or even like it a lot of a little, you need to try this place. It is a standard stop for me any time I am in the city. Their macarons are yummy and so many flavors to choose from.

The service was great! I ordered an Americano and a ginger molasses cookie. I also picked out a small box of chocolates. Everything was delicious and not too sweet. The cafe was very clean, bright and cozy. I'll definitely be back to try more flavours.

If you love chocolate - like, decadent rich chocolate - then you need to find yourself in Halifax's south end at Rousseau Chocolatier. I have had a chocolate or two from here before but this was my first time visiting the shop. Sooooo much to choose from and even offering pieces of their fresh, made in-house macarons to sample. Since my visit I have been "sampling" the small container of milk chocolate sea creatures and may have to make a return visit sooner than expected! I also hear their hot chocolate is insanely delicious too!

Amazing place, always offering a warm welcoming and have a wide selection of delicious offerings. The macarons never disappoint!
Great chocolates that make a perfect Christmas gift but the service was terrible. Was being asked if I will be paying cash or card before I was done ordering. Would’ve bought more if I felt more welcome by the staff.

This place is wonderful and named one of the top chocolatiers in North America for a reason. I've ordered the chocolates and macarons before which were world class and my family and friends said it was the best they ever had. I also was just there Saturday morning and had a PERFECT croissant and French cake. Their americano is very good too?

I’ve had my eye on this place since trying an 4pk of their chocolates at Benjamin Bridge this past summer.A definite stop was on the list when I finally made it downtown again and so glad I did. Amazing quality and staff were great!!Everything I tried, was the best I’ve had! Please go out of your way to go here, you will not be disappointed.Bought: Chocolates (12pk variety), Macarons (10pk variety) and Americano.

Gorgeous chocolates! We were thrilled to hear that they could ship to the U.S. again. The perfect season for shipping chocolates, too. Ordering online was easy. Everything safely arrived in a neatly packaged box within a week here in the Pacific Northwest.So many new and long-loved flavors. It was pretty special to taste the marzipan, dark sea salt, vanilla bean, ginger, orangettes, and caramels and remember falling in love with Rousseau Chocolatier for the first time years ago. Perfection, as usual! All the flavors new to us have been so yummy so far -- loving the creativity and fresh combinations.And can we talk about how beautiful they are to look at? Works of art. I stared at that bronze brush stroke on the spiced latte truffle for about a minute, shimmering it in the light before finally setting it in my mouth. Magical. The flavor profile reminded us of Mexican hot chocolate and warmth on snowy nights. ✨Speaking of the thankful box flavors, they paired incredibly well with an Oregon pinot noir. Loved that. Couldn't have been happier to experience and share those ones with my best friend. The boxes they came in were super cute, too.Infinite love for Rousseau Chocolatier! Cannot wait to visit in person one day again. The absolute best.
It's a small, cozy local place. Loved it.
