Spoke with the owner, Glen, this morning - I've been yearning for a chai latte the way he makes them for years since moving to Alberta. Though he seemed in a hurry to get back to serving customers, he was able to take a brief moment to share the ratios with me!

Love their sugar free chocolates and hot chocolate. The owner makes these chocolates himself. Very friendly place. We’re coming back. Our favorite chocolate place.

Was looking for coffee on a recent visit to Midland and stopped here not expecting to be so pleasantly surprised by the quality of the espresso, the helpful and knowledgeable service and incredible selection of chocolates and treats made in-house. We decided to try the soft serve ice cream as well which was also delicious. What a gem of a place!

My girlfriend and I stopped here looking for ice cream. We left with $100 worth of goddies (including ice cream) and a wonderful chat with the owner, Glen. He was so kind and cheerful, and he happily told us about his story and about making chocolate (he makes almost everything he sells). It was really nice talking to him. He helped us pick out a bunch of treats (which, again, we didn't even initially have the intention of getting, but everything looked so good), and gave us some great big soft serve ice cream cones! This place is definitely a treat!

My family and I went in today for a little summer afternoon cold treat, and we were pleasantly surprised! I asked for an iced matcha latte,with a shot of vanilla syrup.The owner recommended for it to be blended and I am happy I tried it because it was delicious!!!! He even let me keep the leftover drink in the blender to refill my cup, so I won’t waste any. This was truly such a welcoming atmosphere with a nice owner, I HIGHLY recommend!!!

I've been attending this quaint spot for several years now, and I make a habit to visit every time at my family cottage. The atmosphere is terrific, and the owner is always approachable and respectful. He's great to talk to. The fudge options are unlike anything I've witnessed before, and we always grab a coffee to go. That, or a matcha beverage. Everything about this little shop is exquisite. I'll be going back every chance I get.

Wonderful boutique shop with the most amazing chocolate delicacies. Popped in to browse and simply couldn’t leave without trying tons of sweets.

Highly recommended for anyone who has a sweet tooth or a moment to stop by.

Stopped in for the first time to try their brand new spring latte menu! Was pleasantly surprised. The staff there were very nice and they had a great selection of chocolate and baked goods too. Will return for sure!

Have I passed and gone to heaven? This place is like a dream come true. Grabbed some bark and truffles and a hot chocolate. I think I'm set now for the day!

Stopped here on a whim trying to find a local cup of coffee. I had no idea that we had such an amazing chocolate shop in Midland. Everything we tried was amazing. The coffee menu is awesome and there were even kid friendly drinks.

We had two different but equally great hot chocolates this afternoon! Later tonight we tried some of the home made chocolates that we had bought and they did not disappoint!

The most decadent fudge I have ever put in my Pie Hole....Maple Bacon people!!
Yes you heard that right......Maple Bacon 🥓 😋

Parking: There's parking in the front of the building and a few spots in the back, with an entrance located at both back and front.
Timmies is at the back of this store and there's free parking there. Just a few steps further.

Kid-friendliness: Sugar...candy....fudge....candy apples (the real ones!)...candy
So Yes its kid friendly!
Lots of stuff at eye height of our little ones, easy for them to touch....not a good idea to leave them roam
