Alexa Jane BrooksDecember 30, 2014Hazelnut wafer and raspberry dark chocolate. Grab them to go, gift em, or grab a latte/coffee/hot chocolate and perch yourself while passerby's gaze with chocolate envy.
- Mariko L.April 14, 2013Coconut gold bars+salted caramels,obv. But also strike up a conversation with the knowledgeable staff! They hand picked me a box of chocolates and explained why they selected ea. pc. Delicious.

Alex RandowOctober 9, 2014Awesome selection of chocolates but they're not cheap. Single malt bourbon pieces are my favorites.
My Tam NguyenOctober 28, 2011Salted caramels have a special place in my heart and the correct way to eat them is upside down with the salt side on your tongue. Enjoy!
Jia-Ying XuOctober 12, 2014Awesome staff and of course, the chocolate. The salted caramel is saltier than I thought, but interesting.
Gregg TNovember 16, 2014Nice variety of chocolate and wine and coffee drinks here, but a little expensive.
D.A. ArnesonMay 17, 2014Hot chocolate--no matter what the weather. And say yes to the whipped cream they offer with it.
CarmenDecember 8, 2016'tis the season! Get brandied cherries and other christmas chocolate confections. They taste so good!
Hilary C.May 24, 2010The "Obama Chocolates" aka the salted chocolate caramels are a must as is the oolong tea chocolate

From the tantalizing ganache in her luscious truffles, to the bold, and slightly addictive gray and smoked salt caramels, take a moment to note the textures and flavors that layer themselves, one on top of the other. It is the magic of this experience that compels Fran’s to seek the extraordinary.
