Knoops

Went to try the famous knoops hot chocolate. You can choose from several different blends/strengths of cocoa and the drinks are customisable with different spices and creams/marshmallows. Was very underwhelmed by the drinks.

Just got a large" classic mocha. While it is absolutely delicious

Hit up the new Knoops in Manchester recently, and boy, it's like hitting the chocolate jackpot! Sampled a 96% dark chocolate milkshake that was just out of this world, probably the best shake I've ever laid lips on. Already stoked to try the orange blend on my next visit. And that's just the tip of the cocoa iceberg - their menu is chock-full of international chocolates with varying cocoa percentages and even some ace vegan options. Loved the personal touch of picking and choosing my own toppings - had a 70% dark chocolate drink with a pinch of salt that was just heavenly. Rich, smooth, and a sweet hint that hits the spot. All in all, the delightful team at Knoops has put Manchester firmly on the chocolate lover's map!

I've had their 34% iced chocolate a few times over summer and today I tried their hot chocolate for the first time.Beautifully frothy and not too sweet. Staff were friendly and helpful and the drink was served very quickly.Will definitely be coming back for more this Winter!

Popped in to get the hot chocolate and the milkshake. Staff were friendly and I didn’t queue long to get my drinks. Ordered the hot chocolate with coconut milk as I am allergic to milk. However I have had the worst symptoms of lactose intolerance of this year after I had half of the hot chocolate. I checked the cup and there is no sign of they have changed the milk to coconut milk. Very disappointed, this is so unprofessional and a very unpleasant experience for me. Paid about £13 for 2 drinks and get this sickness for the whole evening.

Such a great concept and shop in the heart of Manchester - their main selling point is hot chocolate but you can also buy coffee and tea as well as sweet treats here.It seems overwhelming at first especially if you've never been and have no idea what chocolate percentage you will like, but they let you taste the chocolate before you commit and they have lots of different options from white to extra dark, as well as vegan options. They have recommendations or Knoopology" which suggests which flavours go with which %

I had the 35% white hot chocolate and it was delicious! I also tried the 34% milk hot chocolate and that was also delicious! It had a lovely chocolate/caramel flavour, nearly had to order one for myself! The cakes looked amazing, will have to try one next time I visit.

Went to Knoops today to try their new Wonka drink. It was nice but very much a standard drink nothing special. We also tried out their 28% white chocolate hot drink. I’d definitely recommend if you like sweeter drinks.Only issues: Staff was quite abrupt and rude to customers. I understand it’s a high pressure environment but there should be a sense of discretion when it comes to speaking to paying customers.

Got a 43% and 54% chocolate both with nutmeg and orange. Tastes very much like Terry's chocolate orange and might even go to 60% . Person at the till was also very nice and patient and giving some really nice chocolate mixture recommendations.

Best thing I’ve ever tasted. Absolutely no exaggerations this place is unreal. I got a 34% milk chocolate milkshake with sea salt and my bf got a white chocolate milkshake with vanilla and sea salt. Both were absolutely delicious, not sickly sweet or over the top, just chocolaty and creamy. Could have gone straight back for another. Staff were really friendly and we were served really quick. I signed up for their loyalty scheme and got a free drink as it was my birthday. We’re planning to go back asap.
