    Dairy-free chocolate. So dark and delicious. Do the "6 chocolate tasting for $6." My favorite is rustic chocolate with cherries, almonds & black peppercorns. Try it!

    Small, cozy place to sample chocolates and hot chocolate drinks. Figure out exactly what percent cacao you prefer. I've acquired a taste for 100%. Please support this neighborhood gem!

    Not only are the hot beverages fantastic (my go-to is a European style sipping chocolate:65%, half water, half milk), but the space is warm and inviting, and the staff, as friendly as can be.

    A seasonal favorite: pumpkin spice hot chocolate. Looking for a refreshing treat instead? Try the pumpkin spice ice cream (top it with with 75% chocolate sprinkles). Both are divine!

    Chocolate in a wonderful, pure form. No additives, just chocolate and a bit of sugar. Come by for a chocolate tasting or make a custom drink. The frozen hot chocolate is delicious!!

    They recently introduced their chocolate milks in the refrigerator section. They are a bit pricey but a large container of it is a meal. My favorite is the mocha.

    Incredible whole chocolate milk and their own chocolate bars they make but don’t sleep on the great coffee all its own.

    The frozen hot chocolate, especially the 100 percent cocoa, is mind blowingly good.
