I visited during the Plymouth Ice Festival and simply had to try a hot chocolate from Alpine Chocolat Haus when I saw that they had dark hot chocolate. Some of the best hot chocolates I've ever had are from chocolate shops (makes sense) so I had high hopes. The price was quite reasonable I think for a premium hot chocolate, $4.99 for a dark hot chocolate with Mayan spice (cinnamon, cayenne, etc.) added. There was an option to add whipped cream and marshmallows but I opted out. The cocoa was excellent - delightfully chocolatey and definitely spicy - it definitely had a kick. I would order again in a heartbeat - maybe it's a good thing for my body that I don't live that close to Plymouth. They also have a nice array of chocolates, very similar to classic chocolate shops. I bought a couple of dark chocolate covered cherries and dark chocolate honeycomb chips for my mother and she loved them and she can normally be very picky about these type of chocolates. She said they were very fresh and the cherry flavor of the chocolate covered cherries was excellent. These were probably her favorite chocolates she's had in the last ten years or so. Alpine Chocolate Haus was definitely a winner and we'll be back whenever we're in Plymouth. read more

Alpine Chocolat Haus, stay for the serenity, leave because you can't find anything to enjoy. I'm genuinely shocked they are still open, and yet, glad for it, as ACH is a welcome respite in a downtown that can be boisterous at times. If you are looking to a quiet place to gab with your gal pals, this is the place! There was only ONE food item I tried that was worth consuming, except you can't really take it with you - the hot fudge on the ice cream! Please sell this in jars, the taste rivals Sanders! But, everything else I tried? Barely edible. Sampled 4 ice cream flavors , just because I was trying to find one that was palatable, settled on vanilla because I felt bad sampling more flavors...the ice cream is very poor quality. Being a Michigan company, I am surprised that they don't have Guernsey ice cream? That would be a welcome improvement for sure! Purchased 3-4 chocolates to go, I think one with cherries, another with maple, maybe a coconut, and a Buckeye. Let me preface this with the fact I love chocolate...after one bite of each, I threw them away. And the Buckeye was so revolting I automatically spit it out...what kind of peanut butter tastes like that?! I wish you were better, Alpine Chocolate Haus. :( read more

Oh my goodness!!! What an absolute gem. I had the most glorious hot chocolate (Mayan with dark chocolate). This had to be the best hot chocolate I had in my life! I found this place by chance as I was killing some time in downtown Plymouth..sort of a memory lane tour. The stock of treats is vast!!! Chocolates, candy caramel apples, ice cream and yes, hot chocolate. My goodness! The inside decor is to die for. The staff were so nice! I think I met an owner (male). He said the company has been around for 40 years in Michigan and about 14 years in Plymouth. The vibe is so nice and I can't recommend this place more. Everyone was kind. All I felt was love! Come here!!' It's well worth your time! read more

We came here because there are several chocoholics in our party and they wanted some high quality chocolate. I also intended to get some chocolate but got sidetracked by the ice cream, which I'm told is one of the best in the area and made by a local supplier. For ice cream I got 1/2 Michigan Pot Hole and 1/2 Mocha Chip. Mmmmmmm, if you like good quality chocolate, it was delicious! Michigan Pot Hole flavor is a rich dark chocolatey fudge ice cream with big chunks of dark chocolate in it. It was named such because Michigan roads are known for all their potholes. LOL! read more

IMO they have the best fudge in the metro detroit area. I know fudget is hard to find, but I'd rather get theirs over a few other known places. My favorite flavor is the chocolate carmel sea salt. I could eat a block every day. read more

I traveled 50% of the time in a job. And, I always allow a piece of chocolate even when Im working out hard.

And, its always clean in there with lots of choices. ps. if you like candy apples, this is also your spot. read more

I never got around to trying Alpine Chocolat Haus until Hawaii Yelper Dan O. met me there on his brief visit to Michigan. Alpine is an excellent choice for out-of-towners because there are so many chocolate and popcorn treats and small gifts that can be easily stowed away in a suitcase. I don't eat ice cream often and don't crave typical flavors like chocolate or rocky road. The ice cream served at Alpine is made by a well-regarded local company, Guernsey Farms Dairy, located in Northville. It was my first time trying Guernsey Farms ice cream, and I liked the Lavender Honey and Lemon Lavender flavors I chose for my cone. It was an unusual flavor offering that is rare to find, so I will have to return when I crave ice cream again. read more

My visit was near Easter so I got to see how wide selection they make. Dark chocolate, milk chocolate, and white chocolate bunnies doing things besides the normal ones. Chocolate crosses for those who either religious or want to show the religious by biting off a piece of the cross in front of them and not in a nice way. They even have Easter baskets made of chocolate. The normal stock of their normal selection is still available. You can either buy pre boxed or choose individual pieces. Besides chocolate, they have Carmel corn in different varieties. If you are wondering if they, Yes they have candy apples that most high end chocolate shops think they have to have. They also serve ice cream, so if you are not careful, you can eat a day's worth of calories quickly. Worth a drive and another reason to add to the parking congestion in downtown Plymouth. read more

Absolutely Yummy... My Favorite Chocolate Spot If You Want Chocolate This Is Your Sweet Spot When I Eat Chocolate I'm In Heaven...

LOVE this place!!!! Thank you, Yelpers, for steering me here! In town for a business meeting and all the good reviews made me stop here first. Lovely woman working came out and showed me around the products a bit which really made a difference and pointed out things I might not have bought otherwise. Not every chocolate house makes sea foam... it's a persnickety candy to make so I bought it naked as well as enrolled in dark with chips added! Also had to buy the lavender cherry bark because I've never seen that before anywhere else! (Both amazing!) But my SUPER find is the basil ice cream.... yes, basil-infused ice cream! Which I also had never had and was so so worth it and unique... love it! (It's not "flavored" with drops of basil flavoring or anything like that... I'm talking basil stuck in your teeth! Amazing!) And the caramel apples in the shape of a Thanksgiving turkey??! So cute! read more

This place is so adorable! It reminds me of an ice cream shop from a hallmark movie with the downtown plymouth vibe. This is where you see so many people on first dates and it makes sense. It really has that hallmark vibe that can't help but show that love is in the air. The service was lovely and a girl with blonde hair was so friendly. She was the sweetest person and gave me a cup of water. I also appreciate how easy it is to get to the parking structure from here and that this place has a bathroom. I highly recommend you go here! read more

Living near Downtown Plymouth for most of my life, I have stopped into Alpine Chocolate Haus many times over the years. Every time, they're extremely friendly and even offer samples of multiple items -- the chocolate covered potato chips are are a fav and so is the ghost pepper caramel corn. I've also purchased the dark chocolate covered espresso beans multiple times. It's a local Michigan business (started in Gaylord) that warms my heart and taste buds to support. You can make a custom chocolate bar with a bunch of different add-ins for a reasonable price, which is a cute idea for a personalized gift or even to treat yo own self. They also recently started carrying a variety of fun, unique popcorn flavors year-round. Not all are chocolate-related which you might not expect. I'm excited to try some more of them in the near future! Ice cream is also around all year. Another tip: like them on fb for a piece of chocolate. read more

Really good chocolate place. They have samples all over the store too. I got about 8 truffles/chocolate pieces and it was less than $8 - great deal. Apparently the chocolate is made in Gaylord, according to the box. I sampled one of their mixes too and it was delicious - it had chocolate-covered potato chips in it. I also tried a piece of their caramel apple, and they have a ton of really tasty-looking caramel apples... One was even Michigan pothole-themed, which was funny. Worth a stop when you're in downtown Plymouth! read more

Are you a die hard chocolate lover? Then this is the place for you. The chocolate pecans are my favorite and what I tasted but there is so much variety. Anything you can image you can taste here. Decorated for the winter season this place is adorable. Seating is limited so not too much room for a larger group at least upstairs. The seating area is cozy and cute. There are several gift sets. It's pricy but this is amazing chocolate. read more

They are so many decadent treats to choose from including ice cream and smoothies. I finally settled on the white chocolate cashew bark. I loved it. I also had the mild ghost pepper caramel corn. I'm hesitant to try ghost pepper anything, but it was great also. It had the perfect amount of spice; not overwhelmingly spicy at all. The customer service is great also. The ladies offered us samples a few times but we declined. read more

The service at Alpine is terrific! The lady (I'm sorry I did not remember her name) behind the counter during our visit on December 30th, 2018 was patient, knowledgeable, friendly, and so helpful in helping us decide what to get. We liked their Facebook page so we tried a sample from the counter. There were other samples around of their popcorn and other treats to try. I loved their coconut chocolates and the peanut butter ones (I wish I remembered their names!) from the counter. I had a candy bar made with dark chocolate, pecans, mixed berries, and such for my brother. They have two sizes and you can mix dark or milk chocolate with toppings to mold your own chocolate bar. They take 15 or so minutes to set. I just want to a nearby store and came back when it was ready. For less than $8 I had a large, handmade chocolate bar for my brother as a gift. Great deal! Both the milk and dark chocolate are flavorful and not overly sweet. Everything we tasted was delicious and fresh. I really enjoyed our experience there and we will certainly be back many times in the future! read more

One of the best chocolate covered apples I've ever had. The chocolate and apple were well proportioned. I'm currently kicking myself for only getting one. read more

Saw the sign on the door enticing us to try their truffle hot chocolate. I picked out the double chocolate truffle with fudge and topped it with marshmallows. It was so chocolatey and rich and so deliciously decadent. The best hot chocolate I have had in the US so far. The other best was in a Thai cafe in Bangkok and the other was a cafe in Venice. I will definitely be back for more hot chocolate this winter. read more

I have to say WOW! I ended up with about a dozen pieces for our travel and flight back home. The marshmallow Carmel chocolates are so soft and melt in your mouth.

I discovered this spot when my wife surprised me with a box of chocolates for my birthday and some dark chocolate bars. I could immediately tell the difference in quality from their handmade chocolate to the store bought variety. I was hooked. Personally, I head back to this spot monthly to pick up my snacking chocolate or small treats for the kids. One little known fact I found out is they serve ice cream. Instead of waiting in long lines down the street, come in here for instant service. They have a number of variety including local favorites Guerneys, Browndog creamery, and homemade. read more

'Ello chaps! Alpine Chocolate Haus started as a single story in northern Michigan (Gaylord). The store is known best for its ice cream and premium chocolate, and most notably the chocolate covered potato chips and grab bag of chocolate covered potato chips and popcorn. It may sound weird, but both are delicious. The price is more than what you'd pay for a Hershey, but you get wha you pay for it -- a far better chocolate product, on par with the near by Kilwin's. Overall I give Alpine Chocolate Haus five stars out of five. read more

The salty dog ice cream (exclusively sold at Alpine) is the best. It'll melt quick but worth it, plus I always have wipes on hand with a toddler in tow. They have a nice area in the back where you can sit and enjoy your ice cream including a kids table with little chairs that are perfect for a group of little ones. There is a tv with typically mature audience cartoons, which seems strange to me, with the kids table. Something a bit more kid friendly would be nice. read more

I found my new ice cream parlor in Plymouth. They are Michigan made chocolates and everything in that place is amazing! Sampled some cherry peanut butter brittle, literally chunks of Michigan cherries, not your typical peanut brittle. Of course I had to buy some along with chocolate cashew caramel apple and some cherry caramel and sea salt caramel bites. Everything in there looked amazing, for my next visit on my list is the banana split ice cream and chocolate covered cherries! And I need to add that the young lady that was helping us was very helpful and such a sweetheart! read more

Chocolate, Ice Cream, and Caramel Apples Oh MY! If you have a sweet tooth, this is the place to be! From artisan chocolate truffles, to a variety of caramels and fudge, it's a never ending table that makes my heart skip a beat. I'm basically in love with their truffles.From lavender to rosemary and chocolate mint! Their truffles are decadent, rich, but not cloying sweet! Their caramel apples are also probably some of the best I've ever had. Just the right amount of caramel to chocolate ratio and the apples have a great crunch and freshness to them. They also have a variety of other candies around the perimeter of the store, but I'm always drawn to the marble slab behind the glass that's dripping in caramels, truffles, and fudge, that I haven't taken much notice to what's on the shelves. haha! But pre-boxed chocolates are strewn throughout the store that make for great presents, and the indecisive chocolate lover like myself. They're great about letting you sample candies and Ice Cream which is great since they had a few combinations I was somewhat weary about. Staff is ALWAYS friendly, helpful, informative, and welcoming. Makes me love this place that much more. A great stop for a quick sweet treat! read more

Alpine Chocolat Haus - Chocolate heaven - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Plymouth, Michigan

There is likely something for everyone in this chocolate haven. Located across from Kellogg Park in downtown Plymouth, Alpine joins the ranks of other chocolatiers, Kemnitz, a stalwart of the area with its amazing cherry cordials, and Kilwin's, with its addictive caramel popcorn. This new addition has shelves and display cases filled with chocolate-covered apples (à la Mrs. Prindables and Rocky Mountain Chocolates), marshmallows, and potato chips; large chocolate bars; slabs of fudge; rows upon rows of truffles; old-fashioned candy options and Guernsey ice cream. Behind the counters, staff was busy creating caramel-sweet waffle cones and chocolate creations. Everything smelled wonderful. After sampling several ice cream flavors, I went with a generous serving of well-churned strawberry. I also had lavender; rosemary/sea salt, and maple chipotle truffles. Unfortunately, the lavender and rosemary ones tasted like soap to my untutored palate. The maple chipotle one was pleasantly spicy. There is plenty of seating within this deceptively large and long store, including a funky lounge area with a large TV towards the back. read more
