If you're a fan of chocolate this is the place.There is something for everyone. Friendly attentive shop owner. The chocolate is divine.It's very hard to make a choice they have so much to offer. They also do sweets in jars if that's your treat. At the rear of the shop is a small area of chocolate nostalgia/memorabilla. It also features... More

I was fascinated by the displays of chocolate through the ages and the 6 feet man made of chocolate, varnished to stop it melting. Many of the chocolates I remembered eating when I was a child. It is well worth a visit.

Don't come here if it is your sole reason for visiting Ilfracombe as you will be disappointed. It is a very expensive chocolate shop with a small area at the back containing a display of the sort of mugs you get free with Easter eggs and old chocolate assortment boxes (yes it's been a while since I saw a box...

I visited this shop on my stay to Illfracombe. I could live there if that was an option. There is chocolate galore in there. Any chocolate you can think of is in there including the old sweets in a jar and sweet wines and ciders. It was very interesting seeing a chocolate museum at the back of the shop. Very... More

I read the reviews and was looking forward to visiting this - i was so disappointed. It was no more than a normal chocolate shop with a small display area at the rear. Access was difficult with a pushchair and impossible if you had a wheelchair as there were several steps. Cost of the chocolates were expensive also. We spent... More
