    Strawberry moon chocolate bar
    Deanna D.

    I was SO excited to try some chocolate from Chocolata after hearing so many great things! I finally had the chance to do that today, and let me tell you, this place is great. Not only do they have a great variety of options, the quality of this chocolate is unmatched. The ingredients are clearly listed on the back, so if you have any allergies then you're good to go! I think it's a plus that the owner is really into natural methods and spirituality as well! I got the Strawberry Moon bar which has strawberry, peanuts, and chocolate. This is easily the best chocolate I've ever had. This chocolate is made with love! Please support this business, and take the time to chat with the owner. 5/5

    Like how cute is this packaging ...

    Omg the chocolate here is delicious!!! This spot has such great positive energy... it is gem and be sure to catch it when it's open ....I bought the following chocolates bars and I will say it's hard to say which one is my favorite because each of them are amazing !!!! The Milky crater crunch bar melts in your mouth and literally I down this so quick I had no ideas it was gone when I reached for my last bite. I also got the meteor munch and Pepe rose full moon bars. I will say the from the zen series both the dreamer and guru are money as it is smooth in taste and you can taste each uniquely crafted flavor/spice with any one overpowering the other ... very harmonious... I got a few of the truffles like the signature mystic eyes (milk chocolate), the traditional cocoa powdered trigger with spice , the coconut truffle and pistachio...... I can't the rest because I got 9 and each were mouth watering in the display. I can't wait when winter and it gets colder so I can try the sipping hot Chocolate....

    Where do I start !! This place is awesome and the selections are out of this world. The blends and combinations that they choose are executed perfectly. My favorite so far is the matcha chocolate bar. I also tried one of my friends chocolate bites that had a hint of passion fruit in it. With the holidays right around the corner I would highly recommend making this one of your stops to browse for stocking stuffers.

    Who doesn't love some type of chocolate?! My son is allergic to nuts, but only if he eats them. I was happy to find a nut-free option or two here. The candy bar looks like it will be great, can't wait. The pretzel was good but I would've liked a few more hazelnut chips. Would love to come back and try a few more pieces of the individual candy. Some had fruit, but I went for the nutty varieties (mostly) today.

    So excited for Birmingham's first chocolatier!! Went by today and couldn't be more pleased. Beautiful and distinctively designed inside, and the lady who owns it is so kind and knowledgeable about chocolate. Her passion for it really shows, and especially in the taste of her chocolates. Perfectly balanced sweetness with a variety of tastefully chosen and unique flavor combinations. Exceptional!!

    Birmingham FINALLY has a chocolatier. Hip, hip HOORAY! And she is the sweetest, most down-to-earth, lovely lady! Her charming shop is filled with delightful confections for the chocolate lover in your life (or you!). I visited on a weekday afternoon when I needed a little self-care in the form of chocolate. I selected 4 gorgeous truffles and each one was more delightful than the last. I love that the recipes aren't all standard... the roasted squash was my fave flavor and I can't wait to try what else she comes up with as the seasons change. I'll definitely be shopping Chocolata for Christmas this year and other gifting occasions!

    Super cute place!!! The owner is inviting and very sweet. I would definitely try this place. The sea salt caramel and rosemary is divine.

    The chocolate was good. People were friendly. Costs are very high, so be prepared to fork out big bucks for a small bite.

    This place is a little kid's (or adult candy lover's) dream come true. Candy candy everywhere. Jars…read moreand jars of candy. the good kind, too. They also have a little selection of weird candies and old time candies. Everything is by weight, so you can mix and match and put whatever you want in the little bags. It is not the biggest candy store I have been in, but it'll do.

This would be a great place to treat your grade schooler after a good report card, and even better one to stock your "candy bar" table for your next event. Sugar also rotates their seasonally themed offerings. They carry every color jelly bean, gummy, and M & M imaginable. I love to put a smaller clear glass cylinder inside a larger one- fill the space with some of the above- choosing colors based on occasion-and then put water and flowers (like gerber daisies) in the inner one. Grouping several of different heights together in various colors makes a festive centerpeice. I also discovered an abundance of the kiddo coveted Sour Belts. Which- for a Pintrest addict means- edible bow making material! Lastly, the owner is also the operator, stock girl, and cashier. Which makes for a very clean, very well run, very service oriented, very friendly, atmosphere.

    I like the feel of this coffee shop, the menu was not very big but I think that is a positive I did…read morean iced latte with Sugar free vanilla and lavendar, with macadamia milk. (They only offer milk based milk options) The coffee itself had a good taste I do think I would have preferred just a regular iced coffee with the flavor but I know that for next time. I did enjoy being able to look at the offerings of the connected store (Basic.) they had many unique things for sell including clothing, shoes and various books. Tyler was great with helping make my selection of drink and I loved how patient he was with assisting on the order. The feel of the space was very comfortable and welcoming to creatives. I love the location and how it is in walking distance to so many things. Thankfully I was able to find a parking spot across the street and didn't have to pay to park. Basic. is the store sharing the space and it is nice to be able to browse their inventory while waiting for your drinks. They have some things that I have not seen anywhere else if I had to compare it to another store I would compare it to Earth Bound. Everything seemed to be environmentally conscious which is always nice to see.

    Every time I go to a new coffee shop in Birmingham I think: "wow! This is my favorite coffee shop…read moreyet!" Grounds did NOT disappoint and I have no idea why it took me so long to come here. It's located right along 2nd Ave amongst all of the restaurant hubbub. Street parking, but if you're willing to take a stroll for a couple blocks, it's easy. This is one of the busier coffee shops in town, I would advise against seeking silence here. It's a shared space with "basic," a vintage clothing and art retailer which has awesome things made by local people. The people that worked there were so friendly. I came because I had to get that crème brûlée latte. It did not disappoint. One of the most delicious coffee drinks I've had in a long time. It tasted like a hug, perfectly caramel sweet, and fun to drink. It's not often that coffee gets turned into an interactive experience. The pastries looks great. The couch in the front window looked like an awesome spot to post up with some buddies. There were plenty of tables and chairs to work at. I will most certainly be back.

More of a simple southern antique style. Baristas were extremely helpful and patient as I pondered my order! I ended up ordering a delicious warm breakfast sandwich and a cold brew to drink with it! SOO delicious!! I am a sucker for a good breakfast and coffee! The menu was large and well diverse: they even had a cortado on the menu which I cant get at all coffee shops!   I am surprised not more people know about the place. I had never heard of it until I was scrolling through highly rated coffee shops on Yelp! The space inside is large and can seat lots of people! For being in Birmingham this surprised me; I feel like most coffee shops here are fairly small.    I also appreciated how relaxed and welcoming the environment felt. It would be such a great spot for studying, meeting a friend, or even having a casual work meeting. The music wasn't too loud, and everything felt clean and well-kept. Overall, I would definitely come back and recommend The General to anyone looking for a cozy, charming coffee shop with great food and even better service.

It's such a unique place with it being both a restaurant as well as a shop. It's got a very nostalgic feel to it with the decor and items for sale. I saw a couple students but when I visited I mostly saw upper class looking Caucasian ladies. Being very laid back, down to earth and often times socially awkward, I admit that it felt a little hoity toity, while also being a very welcoming spot. It's hard to explain, so you'll have to check it out for yourself. Also worth noting for the plus size community: the chairs are not plus size friendly. (See zoomed in photo) The employees there were on top of their jobs and super helpful. They cleaned up the tables that emptied quickly, as the lunch crowd trickled in. The food was good. I loved the creative presentation of the sampler plate! The pimento cheese was very cold and hard to spread but I still it. The toast triangles were delicious! While they offer a lot of excellent coffee choices. I only got a 1/2 & 1/2 tea. Even the restroom was really neat with the retro decor. I'd definitely go back.
