From the second that you walk inside Graham's you know that you stumbled across something special! The air is filled with overwhelming aromas of coffee, chocolate, caramel, and baked goods. The music is fun and festive. The decorations are rustic, trendy, and modern. Everyone is super friendly and helpful. You couldn't ask for a better place to start off your day at. They also, support local businesses and are passionate about what they do. All and all, the atmosphere is incredible! You just want to sit down, eat some chocolate and soak in everything. You can't go wrong with whatever you decide to get here. I've tried almost everything here over the years. And, I can honestly say that it's all delicious! I will definitely be back to continue trying everything here. Everything looked divine! I will definitely be back! Everything is a true work of art here! And, everyone is super friendly. So, stop by for your tasty experience. read more

Graham's Fine Chocolates & Ice Cream - Nut toffee and Dark chocolate toffee - Candy Stores Near Me - Wheaton, Illinois

Bottom of mine the best chocolates I've tasted anywhere the assortments are great. The options are terrific. My only my only negative would be that if you're going there during Christmas Eve and get there early cause they do run out. read more

We decided to stop in here to see what they have. The shop itself is kind of small, so it's good when it's not busy. You have different kinds of chocolates on one side then you'll find the ice cream all the way in the back. We got 4 different flavors of ice cream: deadhead cherry, double dark bitter chip, pistachio, and maddi banani. My favorite is the double dark bitter chip. I love the taste of dark chocolate and it wasn't too rich. The deadhead cherry is also good, it has a decent amount of cherries in it. Pistachio has real pieces of pistachios and is smooth. Maddi banani has a banana taste. Honestly, you can't go wrong with any of them. We did buy some chocolate truffles. We only ate a few but the quality is excellent. Prices were reasonable. Employees were attentive and helpful. read more

We're out-of-towners and stopped in here on a Saturday night for some ice cream. Really cute shop decked out for Fall. We purchased ice cream (the pumpkin was divine) and the pistachio was delicious, too. I got two scoops in a cup and I think it was less than $4. We left with a couple of carmel apples as well. The customer service and variety were great. Would love to come back when we visit our family again in Wheaton. Didn't get to try any of their chocolates - a must! read more

I love grahams, I had no idea they had this location! My favorite is the milk chocolate non pareilles (chocolate with sprinkles). I also love the turtles and chocolate covered potato chips. Employees were helpful and friendly! read more

I love everything about this place! The chocolate peanut butter cookie dough ice cream, the cashew scalies, the coconut almond chocolates.. literally everything at Grahams is amazing. read more

Hot chocolate was delicious and the two girls working were so sweet. I walked in like 15 min before they closed and they were gracious about it and my hot chocolates were made with care and tasted perfect read more

Such a cute spot for an afternoon treat! I will definitely be coming back and bringing friends! I tried the salty cookie and raspberry chocolate chip flavors. Salty cookie was a little too salty for me, but I would get the raspberry again. PROS: Great selection of chocolates and ice cream flavors to choose from. Homemade! Local. Reasonably priced. Waffle cones are huge. If you want, they offer an included chocolate malt ball at the bottom of all waffle cones. We chose not to try it because it would have taken up a lot of space in the cone. CONS: Ticket system when you arrive. Meaning you pull a ticket with a number to save your spot in line. At the time I went, it was very busy! Had to wait about 15 minutes before our number was called. Not a ton of space for seating options. read more

Graham's is in a super cute area in downtown Wheaton. I found it a bit strange that you can't see the ice cream that you're ordering like most ice cream places - but the chocolate peanut butter chip ice cream that I chose was AMAZING regardless! It exceeded expectations! There is a good amount of street parking in the area, plus a free parking garage within a block or two. There are plenty of spots to enjoy your ice cream - at nearby parks or just walking by local restaurants, etc! read more

Graham's Fine Chocolates & Ice Cream - Interior - Candy Stores Near Me - Wheaton, Illinois

The best chocolates and ice cream in town! Definitely stop if you're ever in Wheaton. I live in San Diego and seriously miss this place all of the time haha! Many chocolate spots taste like sees candies, but Grahams tastes different.. everything I got was incredibly fresh and homemade. Of course I don't have any pictures but I got the peach cobbler ice cream, classic chocolate fudge, chocolate dipped marshmallows, dark chocolate peanut butter cup and a few truffles. read more

The ice cream is extraordinarily good. Like fantastically good. The darkest dark chocolate and also the chocolate with peanut butter cookie dough are my favorites. This cute little place has great service and reasonable prices and I cant wait to go back. read more

I love Graham's!!! But I am so sad that I could cry right now... While driving home with my bag of goodies in my lap: Dark and milk chocolate covered caramel pretzels, nutty caramel pretzels and nutty chocolate toffee - the bag slid off my lap and my toffee flew to the floor of the car! My husband was driving and pulled over so we could pick it all up. Everything was still wrapped except for my beloved toffee. Our two dogs ride in the car frequently and reminders in the form of hair are often left behind. Let me just say this...I have no shame. If I had been alone, it is alleged that I would have picked off the dog hair and put the toffee back in the bag. My husband, on the other hand, has not only shame, but also self control when it comes to the best chocolate in the world (I don't know how, but he does!). Needless to say, he discarded the two hairy pieces of toffee. :*-( I'm thinking of driving back right now and asking for more toffee...securely wrapped in a box! read more

Friendly service, absolutely delicious products. The reason why it's 4 stars instead of 5 is that I prefer the Geneva location more. From here, I bought a customized small box of 6 chocos for $8. At Geneva, it cost $6something. There's more variety at the Geneva location, understandably since it's their flagship store, and also the oreo nougats are bigger, yet priced the same. I'd highly recommend the soft caramels ($0.39 each) and cherry pistachio nougats. Their caramel apple ($4.25 with peanuts) evoked all the happy pumpkin patch memories of a midwestern girl. Buttery caramel blanketing the crisply tart granny smith apple. Mmmm! read more

Raspberry chip + chocolate PB cookie dough - 2 solid solid choices!!! Wouldn't get the coconut again but it wasn't bad. We will be back!

I stopped here mostly for the chocolates after reading a writeup in "Candy Industry Magazine." Nice selection, most all of it available in dark or milk chocolate, with some white chocolate options. They do dark chocolate covered toffee, which is rare, and pretty good. They also do soft nougats, which is sort of unusual (they have an odd fruity flavor; I'm still figuring out if I like them). The article mentioned their turtles, which are very nice indeed (available in almond, cashew, or pecan). So far the chocolates are quite good; flavors are intense. I got one of just about everything in dark, plus some ice cream, which ran me a total of about $40. The ice cream was a bit of a letdown, but only because my expectations had been raised by other reviewers. I got peanut butter chocolate chip, dark chocolate, and tiramisu. While I'm very impressed that they had these flavors, this was simply good solid high-quality American style ice cream, nothing very special. The tiramisu was like a sweet coffee ice cream, not recognizable as tiramisu particularly, and the "dark chocolate," which the salesperson described as "intense," was simply a nice enough chocolate ice cream made with quality ingredients. For ice cream, I think I'd rather go to Oberweiss, though I'll reserve final judgment until I get a chance to try their fruit flavors. read more

I've only ever been to the Graham's in Geneva before this, so finding this "don't blink and you'll miss it" outpost was a surprise. Seriously, this location is teeny, like a walk-in closet full of ice cream and chocolates. There are a couple of little tables on the sidewalk, but in the winter they must be surviving on candy sales because there's not a lot of room to stand around inside. The treats are delicious, and service was friendly, as in Geneva. Lots of fun on a small scale. Enjoy, particularly while summer's still here! read more

Very selective on whom they accept applications for part time role was told not to ware a mask/ I do for others protection & to not compromise the chocolates! read more

Best ice cream! Love the cake batter flavor. Chocolates are really good, too. It can be a bit like Lord of the Flies when the numbered ticket system isn't used so I try to visit when it's calm. read more

Best ice cream in wheaton and in the chicago area . Butter pecan and the chocolate ice cream with chunks of chocolate in it is amazing. read more

Graham's Fine Chocolates & Ice Cream - Candy Stores Near Me - Wheaton, Illinois

Grahams is a small chocolate and ice cream shop (perhaps the term sweet shop should apply here). They have a wide variety of chocolates, and also sell ice cream cones. The store itself is clean and the employees are courteous. I tried some chocolate fudge and it was excellent. Since Schmidt Pharmacy in Glen Ellyn closed, I was unaware of a place to obtain fudge nearby besides the poor quality fudge found in mall stores. This store definitely fills that niche and the fudge was excellent quality overall. I would definitely return to Graham's. read more

Mmmm....I need a moment to collect my thoughts. I love Graham's! Family owned and operated chocolate store. A wild assortment of chocolates stuffed with chocolate and covered in chocolate. I have to apologize for drooling on the glass whenever I'm there, but I think that's why they keep them behind glass. The staff is very helpful and I think it's the owners daughter that is working every time I'm in there so I know it's in good hands and will stay in Wheaton for a long time (You here me Graham's? You better not go anywhere and make a liar out of me). They are a little on the pricey side but that's the price of quality. They're the Tiffany's of chocolate shops. Great pairing: Graham's dark chocolates with a good red wine from Tasting Devine (2 store fronts down). read more

Awsome chocolates! Great ice cream! This place could make me very fat. I like to grab a milkshake there, but I always end up buying more. All fresh made confectionaires, and ice cream. The ice cream is fantastic! They recently had an ice cream and beer pairing with Two Bros. Brewing Co. at the Geneva Ale House, that was outstanding. They made beer floats with the Two Bros beer, and select flavors of their ice cream! Great Idea! The mix of great craft beer and great craft ice cream was a home run! Go to Grahms if you messed up with your girl and you need to make it up to her. This stuff has magical powers! Oh ya, hit the gym before ya go so you won't feel so bad about eating real chocolate. read more

Graham's Fine Chocolates & Ice Cream - a display of chocolates - Candy Stores Near Me - Wheaton, Illinois

I really like Graham's. The people working are always friendly and the chocolate is absolutely amazing. They have the best dark chocolate covered caramels I have ever had (and I've tried many places)! I like the ones with the sea salt on top. The dark chocolate covered cherries are unique and a favorite of my husband's, and the peanut butter diamonds are good too. I have heard that their chocolate covered orange peel and chocolate covered apricots are amazing too- I haven't tried those. The truffles are amazing. I wish they had candy with macadamia nuts and caramel in them-my dad's favorite- but their almond/cashew/pecan chocolate covered caramel pieces (like turtles) are good too. This candy is excellent- high quality and delicious. read more

Oh Graham's. I worked here throughout high school and college breaks and I'll never get sick of all the deliciousness that happens here. After working here for six years I can also tell you that the place is SPOTLESS! You don't have to worry about any crazy germs here....we bleached everything down every night and had to wear gloves at all times when handling the chocolates. Ice cream and chocolates are delivered fresh from the main store in Geneva a couple times a week. It is pretty pricey, that's the reason for the 4 stars instead of 5...but this is no Fannie Mae. Here are some of my FAVORITES! Dark chocolate almond bark Coconut clusters Peanut butter diamonds English toffee Mint meltaways Carmel/chocolate covered pretzel sticks Helen Graham truffle Mint chocolate ice cream Toffee Bar ice cream Oreo shake Hot chocolate Great staple in downtown and will always hold a special place in my heart! If you're in the area I highly recommend stopping by for a little indulgence! read more

I randomly came across Graham's after finding out that the nearest froyo place was closed. The consistency and texture of the ice cream is good. I got the jamocha and and double dark bitter chip ice cream, while the bf got the jamocha and chocolate PB cookie dough. I loved both of the flavors I got, but I thought the chocolate PB cookie dough was way too sweet (we were hunting for a place to get drinks afterwards). read more

The chocolates are good, but what really makes me salivate is their dark chocolate chip ice cream, hot chocolate and caramel sauce. Preferably all on the same visit. read more

Just received a box of candy for a Christmas gift. Without a doubt, the candy is better and fresher than any candy we've ever tasted. It melted in our mouths. It's much fresher than Fannie Mae or Godiva. We'll be placing orders for gifts for sure. read more

Chocolate! Chocolate! Chocolate! Chocolate ice cream, chocolate covered strawberries, carmels....they have it all! The chocolates here are to die for! Walk in the door and you are in heaven! They have tons of stuff! They also have ice cream, but some days they run out of flavors. There isn't much room to sit down and eat your ice cream, they have 1 bench inside and 1 or 2 tables outside. Across the street is an area with tables that have umbrellas and you can sit there and watch the trains while you are licking away at your cone. The scoops are bigger at Tate's, but Grahams has better chocolate flavors! read more

I liked the french vanilla chip ice cream! If you ever go there, get it with. Some whipped cream on the top :) its sooooo good. Grahams puts lots of thought in the flavors! read more

The second smallest storefront in downtown Wheaton but some of the biggest flavors in the western suburbs! Their hand-crafted chocolates are amazing and the wide assortment of decadent ice cream flavors are a wonderful reward for the drive to the almost bucolic setting of Wheaton's downtown. Having lived in Wheaton for 10 years, it was such a treat to walk with my kids and end up at Graham's. Stopping today, for the first time since I moved five years ago, it was immensely satisfying to see they still carry my favorite flavor...dark chocolate with bitter chocolate chips. So worth stopping for before heading back to Badgerland! With about a dozen and a half ice cream flavors, and a myriad variety of chocolates to delight anyone's taste buds, treat yourself, and your family, to the 2014 winner of the Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Small Business of the Year Award. You'll find yourself coming back again and again! read more

I've been going here for a while and one thing thats stable in my chaotic life is the quality and consistency of ice creams here. I absolutely love LOVE their Salty Cookie flavor of ice cream in fact I'm craving for some as I type this review... Might have to make a trip to downtown Geneva after all. read more

Yum. Yum. Yum. Yum. Yum. Best chocolate ever. I just wish it was a bit bigger. read more

Do you ever get that feeling? That itch? When this craving hits, you need to know where to get that fix. I'm talking about chocolate. Find all things chocolate at Graham's, from turtles to chocolate-covered pretzels. Their products are consistently high-quality and delicious. The ice cream here is also very good and, surprisingly, they have quite the selection. If you're in downtown Wheaton and are fixing for some chocolate, be sure to stop by Graham's. read more

Yummy yummy yummy! They serve "hand crafted" ice cream in a vairety of tasty flavors. Their chocolates are good too - I am a sucker for milk chocolate caramels and these guys deliver some good caramel. Try the caramel swirl ice cream (sense a theme here?) - you will not be disappointed. read more

Great chocolate eats and options. Good ice cream too! Not a lot of seating options (in fact, almost none). So get your ice cream or chocolate and go across the street to the open benches outside. You'll have a better chance of finding a seat there. read more

What's not to like about a small family-owned chocolate store with delicious ice creams, chocolates, and other treats? Samples of the ice creams are available, and the dark chocolate with brownie pieces was a winner. Of course, I would have been happy with many of the other flavors too. Cute chocolate gifts make it a good "go to" spot when you need a tasty gift for a chocolate lover that's graduating, having a baby, or having a birthday. The shop is cool and lovely inside. read more

This is the best ice cream and chocolate shop I visited here in Wheaton. All of the flavors they have are truly amazing, their menu is full of awesome choices, and all of it is so affordable. I really love their chocolate and caramel ice cream. The quality of their ingredients is unmistakable. This is really nice and convenient ice cream and chocolate shop and I really love their place. Their interior is really colorful at the same time modern, and the ambiance is relaxing. Their employees are friendly, nice, and professional. All of them really love their job and they serve so nicely. Graham's Fine Chocolates & Ice Cream is a lovely little shop with lots of flavors and selections. Great service, an amazing place, and professional staff. This place is absolutely recommended! Give this place a try and you will surely know the reason why many people keep coming back and visiting again and again at their place. Kudos to all of the staff! Will be back soon! Thank you Graham's Fine Chocolates & Ice Cream! read more

There is nothing but good to say about Graham's. They redefine what a caramel should be. outstanding. Along with their other savory treats. it is such a good experience with the local teenagers working the counter, seeing the candy being made in the front window, and family owned. Our favorite is a chocolate malt. Ask for double malt And in the summer enjoy the Adirondack chairs out front with the locals and enjoy and ice cream on a hot summer day. and don't forget about gifts- this is a wonderful place to purchase gifts for any occasion. read more

Phew, what a relief to cool off from the insanely hot weather we have been having this week!
