Absolutely worth every penny. The chocolate chai is to die for, and the owner is such a pure, wholesome soul. I will definitely be coming back and sharing this special place with my friends!

Had the most exquisite cup of chocolate in my entire life. Having had chocolate drinks from London to Istanbul, Spain, France, Italy, Mexico. From Maine to San Francisco even, and from the finest chocolate companies nothing has ever compared to what I experienced today. A Mayan hot chocolate. I had to compliment the owner for absolutely the most amazing, delicious, aromatic compelling tasteful beverage I have ever experienced. Your taste buds will beg you to return as mine do.

The best home made chocolate from a great Chocolatier. Sat in front of the window and had a cup of drinking chocolate and some bars to go. A lovely Saturday afternoon treat! The owner/chef served custom chocolate delicacies on plates explaining to guests the nuances of taste and global origins of the source chocolate. Check out this place you chocolate lovers!!

This chocolate shop is unlike any I’ve ever been to. Their selections are few, and presented in a museum-case like display. At first glance it might look pompous and self-important, but once you get a taste of their products, it all starts to make sense.
They’re famous for their drinking chocolate, of which I got European style, with a bit of milk. I have to tell you, as I told the kind lady at the counter, that this was literally the best hot chocolate I’ve ever had in my life. The hot drinks are served in these quaint little ceramic bowls that you have to handle with delicate care with both hands, drinking as you would a warm bowl of soup, which only adds to the experience of this unique shop.
I bought a bar of chocolate (yuzu pineapple cacao) to take home, which was quite pricey, but I couldn’t help but be seduced by the promised flavor combination and the beautiful presentation that makes it look like abstract art. It was almost too precious to eat. But when I took a bite, I understood the price and the pride they take in their chocolates. This is light years beyond simple chocolate- the delicate flavors and even the textures of the smooth white chocolate contrasted with the crunchy geodes of sugar complete with the chewy dried fruits was such a complex and intriguing chocolate-eating experience.
I found myself craving the drinking chocolate the day after, and can’t wait to go back.
This is such a gem and it's honestly surprising that a place like this exists in Manchester. This is the highest tier, most spectacular chocolate I have ever had. I've been coming here for a couple of years now. The drinking chocolate is a must try. During summer they have done frappes and ice cream which are ridiculously good. But probably the most impressive are the bonbons. I highly recommend the "chocolate for 2" which includes an assortment of chocolate and bonbons and the drinking chocolate. Often the owner or an employee will come out to tell you about the ingredients and where they are sourced. It really gives you an appreciation for the differences between chocolates from different regions and the complexity of the flavors. This is the place to go for the highest quality chocolate!

This isn't just a top notch chocolate shop/cafe, it should be a bucket list experience. Give yourself plenty of time to slow down, get in the vibe, and really enjoy what you have selected. Then take in the beauty of the piece (yes all of the chocolates are a piece of art), and eat it slowly, to better taste and feel all of the flavors and textures. My favorite was getting a box of the beautiful chocolates and finding each one so very different from the other. Enjoy!
