People will sit here for hours so make sure you come early or grab a table. Can't vouch for the pastries but the single origin hot chocos are 💯 (might want to order a S or share a L).

Such a cozy little cafe- I love the corner seats (there are two) and the penguin chocolates- they also have a quiet a bit of selection of teas-

You're at the perfect place for a cocktail and dessert combo- all in one cup. Order a milk, white or dark hot chocolate with your choice of whiskey, rum or cherry liqueur added.

"The coziest chocolate shop in town. Stop in for a hot drink and head out with a gift box full of adorable chocolate penguins for your luckiest friend (or yourself)." Read more

First visit delivered good service and a tasty raspberry tart. Cappuccino was a little foamy, but good. The place was empty, so nice an quiet with a great atmosphere.

The velvety- white, dark, or milk hot chocolate is made from fresh Caribbean and South American beans. The smooth, thick taste trickling down your throat is sensational, even in the 100˚ weather.

A Boston import, just incredible. Try a different blend every time. Cakes are incredible too.

The hot chocolate will change your life. It is rich, creamy and thick. The candy is good, too, but the hot chocolate is where it's at.

On the weekends, you'll always see awkward first date couples here. Great place for coffee with friend or a meeting. No WiFi but great hot chocolate, coffee and cakes.

The chocolates are all hand made with very delicate flavors. Be sure to try the mice chocolate

Great place to end a romantic date. Try the Grenadian Hot Chocolate - they'll make 'em cold, so you can come here year round!

Large hot chocolate is a little too much, get a small. They are using half and half, so it's pretty rich and heavy. Which is the right way to make it ;)

Warm yourself up with a cup of nice dark deep hot chocolate. Small size is big enough to satisfy your sweet tooth.

Not only do they have great hot (and cold) chocolate from around the world, but they also have chocolate penguins and mice!

The oddly named LA Burdick offers one of our favorites, the single origin dark hot chocolate for $7.50, usually with a choice of origins. Read more

Come with a bunch of friends to try all their hot chocolate variations. They're top notch stuff. & you have yourself a tasting event! ;)

Disagree that the large hot chocolate is too much - then again, I usually just treat it like a meal. The milk hot chocolate is amazing, and the chocolate croissants are pretty fab as well.
Jessica WongOctober 10, 2013
The small hot dark chocolate drink was like drinking dense, liquefied dark chocolate bar as opposed to a hot chocolate drink. Not my favorite.

Not a lunch spot, but their hot chocolate is amazing. Definitely my go-to meeting spot, especially in the winter.

Can't miss the hot chocolate - try the hot white chocolate if your sweet tooth is extra needy.
Serious EatsMarch 25, 2013
A good bet for anything chocolate, whether plated desserts, hot chocolate, or boxed chocolates -- we're particular fans of the chocolate mice.

Their white mocha is wonderful and unique - coffee with white chocolate as creamer and sweetener.

Get hot chocolate! Duh... one of the best places in NYC. Better than the tourist trap Max Brenner. Super artisanal, little bit pricey.

Grenada hot chocolate os the most amazing flavor
Jannette PinsonAugust 7, 2011
They keep descriptions of the different kinds of single source hot chocolates behind the register. Just ask for it. The Bolivian is my favorite.

Favorite place for hot chocolate in the city. Have a small milk chocolate hot chocolate. Alternate: raspberry tart with a cappuccino.

Ask for half the chocolate in your hot chocolate or mocha...and I promise you won't taste the difference. It's that chocolately.
Alexandra MackeyDecember 15, 2012
Treat yourself to a hot chocolate here (choose from milk, dark or white!) - a small size is plenty big.
Lauren HansenMarch 15, 2015
Mocha is extremely rich! Patrons are not the nicest but it was worth checking out for the cute mouse chocolates

Perfect spot for coffee meetings. Yummy coffee, quiet, friendly atmosphere.

If you're not in the mood for all things chocolate... They have a great tea menu. Perfect for warming up on a cold winter day!

I love the Granada hot chocolate, but really all of the varieties are pretty ridiculous.

Chocolate Penguin, filled with Dark Lemon Ganache (the arms are almond), L.A. Burdick

Milk chocolate mocha- so sweet and delicious, but you only need a small!

For some choco excitement try an Earl Grey bon bon. Just when salted caramels seemed played, Burdick's duo reveals subtle, mysterious flavors.

Mice and penguins. Chocolates. Some mice w/ whipped orange interior or mocha or white w/ cinnamon. Penguins are whipped dark chocolate and LEMON interior. ^-_-^

Get a small dark hot chocolate. Rich and delicious. You'll be tempted to go larger, but don't. You won't be able to finish it.
