Hotel Chocolat Cafe in Edinburgh

Stumbled across hotel chocolate shop in Edinburgh. Two hot chocolates later we were in bliss. So delicious. The chocolates are to die for.

Ice cream of the Gods: creamy with hints of cacao. The 70% iced choc shakes is heavenly and not overwhelmingly sweet, topped with soft and fluffy choc whipped cream.

The lady at the till spilled our hot chocolates on the tray and acted like nothing happened, not even offering to clean up. Besides, she got our order wrong and instead of fixing it she argued back, backed by her manager, saying it was impossible that they made a mistake due to how the till works. They offered to honour the request as an exception because we "have to be careful when ordering", but argued that they were out of coconut milk or cocoa whip (not sure which) for one of the two chocolates that they mixed up. Terrible service overall and not up to the usual hotel chocolat standard

Great place to fill all chocolate needs!!

Cute and tasty! I received it as a gift and I’m extremely happy now!

On 13th May, my wife and I visited to this cafe at Hotel Chocolate. It was very comfortable cafe. And the Hot Cocoa was very good. And all staffs were very friendly and very kind. Looking forward to visiting again soon!

Excellent chocoholics store. With a very big variety of chocolate mixes in excellent quality. Very friendly staff.

So after watching the documentary for Hotel Chocolat, we thought we would try the cafe in one of the shops. We are in Edinburgh so tried the Mint Hot Chocolat and a 50% Milk Chocolat Latte with a cocoa whip. It was sooooo tasty and I think it will have to become a regular thing whenever we visit a Hotel Chocolat Shop ☕🍫

Nice range of chocolates, also a wee selection of drinks and cosmetics. Hot chocolates are a bit disappointing though as they lack the thickness. The texture is more like a cocoa than melted chocolate. Unfortunately same applies to most hot chocolates in UK...

Went in just to have a look at chocolates but noticed the little cafe area in the back. The hot chocolate here is quite special and well worth trying. The staff were extremely friendly, and willing to help out however they could. Definitely will be going back.
