Chocolate artisan

Very casual place, everything is served in disposable crockery, there are nitrogen tanks in a section of the place where chairs and tables could go instead. This would all be fine if the prices reflected the low quality of the dessert shop but paying £6 for a small cookie dough and a scoop of ice cream is definitely not worth it. Taste is average, nothing special. Especially when there is a Nando’s round the corner with desserts under £5 with actual crockery and tables and service. Very disappointing.

I cannot even begin to explain how much I love this shop! They have something for everyone- whether thats a hot chocolate/coffee, icecream or a bar if chocolate for yourself all the way to amazing gifts of chocolate art and chocolate boxes.The service is absolutely amazing- having moved to Australia this is now my go to website for sending people in the UK gifts. Never underestimate the power of a good chocolate present!

Just discovered this little gem. Delicious flavours the attention to detail is amazing Excellent service and nothing to much trouble.. will definitely be reordering soon . 10/10 !

We were just walking past today, looking in the window and noticed the guy behind the counter with a huge smile and a sign that read free fudge tasting. We had to walk inside, awesome guy serving, didn't catch his name, but based on the chat and good vibes and tasting some amazing fudge, we walked out with 3 different bars and brought them home. Would definitely recommend if you are in York.

I don’t tend to think of Hotel Chocolat as a place to go for ice cream, but I’m glad I did. The Millionaire’s Sundae really satisfied my craving!

I attended a virtual tasting session with Freedom chocolate and was lucky enough to try their Dark, and Dark Lemon flavours.The chocolate itself was beautiful, and was lovingly made and wrapped.The tasting session itself was something I had never done with chocolate and was fantastic. Sarah was friendly and knowledgeable, and gave us a great insight as to how the process works, from sourcing the ingredients to eating the result.Sarah took the time to go through the best way to taste the chocolate and appreciate it with each of the senses.I would highly recommend both the chocolate and the tasting session, thank you Sarah!

Prime location at Manchester Piccadilly station for the chocolate lovers who need a quick chocolate fix

Cozy and wonderful place. I’ve been in many times since I came to UK and honestly, I’ve never seen this variety of chocolate before. Once you step in the store you can find a wide range of chocolate to choose. Plus, they have treated me as if I was one of the best customer ever letting me try some of them. Not only is the service lovely and nice, but also the help they povide me with when I need some suggestions for a gift comes in handy. Few places have clerks with such a shiny disposition when it comes to advise someone. Promise, they’ll live up to your expenctations!

When it first opened, they had plenty of good value options here, but in the last few visits, the prices were only slightly lower than in regular shops. The chocolate is good but as a factory outlet is not worth going out of your way.

This hot chocolate is so easy to make at home. I just pop a few tablets into a milk frother and after a few minutes I have delicious barista-grade hot chocolate to enjoy in the comfort of my own home. I love this little bit of indulgence at the end of the day.
