You can get inundated with all of the chocolate shops in Brugge so I relied on my fellow Yelpers…read moreeven though Yelp is not as big in Europe as it is in the States. The shop is beautiful inside with the shelves showcasing all their chocolates in all different sizes and shapes. I found the store to be a little overpriced and the chocolates were definitely not as good as I expected them to be. The caramel in particular was disappointing.

The guy explained that this is a family business and they make everything by hand!!! I love this kind of shop!!! His mom and dad make the stuff and his mom was at the cashier. He was super helpful to explain everything and give us a taste of the truffles.Their macaroons had soooo many colors!!! I immediately bought two teal macaroons which were bubble gum and frozen yogurt and wowwwww. What in the actual!!! Never had such a delicious macaroon!!! The guy had explained that they use a lot of almond and their macaroons are very high quality. Their truffles were absolutely fantastic, they have so many kinds of hot chocolate and chocolate bars and just wow. What craftsmanship. We bought a couple chocolate bars, marshmallows and a box of macaroons. Ok and the guy behind the macaroon bar in the window of the shop is serious eye candy if the treats aren't. Go for the delicious treats and take a look at the delicious man!!! You won't regret it!

We stopped in at this store on a whim. It was buzzing with people. There were many options in the…read moredisplays and prepackaged offerings on the shelving across the displays. We got a little box, filled it with the chocolates we chose, and off we went to try them. We weren't really impressed. The apple one pretty but really sweet. Gingerbread was ok. Coffee was the favorite as it tasted like a latte and didn't kill you with sugar. There were no chili or other spicy chocolates offered, which was something we enjoy. Imagine our surprise when The Chocolate Line came up as the number one store in every review I read. Due to this we returned to try other items in case we missed what made them so popular. Nothing was memorable. We actually preferred items from 2 other local shops listed in the top reviews. We're not certain if we selected the wrong options or if we have pedantic chocolate taste buds.

The only thing better than the chocolate was the customer service. The young man working educated us on the Ghent Dragon, provided us with a few local restaurant recommendations and a brief lesson on Belgian fries and local spots. He also informed us that the chocolates are made by Sophie herself. Sophie is doing a great job in both the chocolate business and in hiring friendly, competent people. It was a pleasure shopping there.

They even opened a…read morestore in Old Town Pasadena and Santa Monica (Los Angeles area, for those unfamiliar) more than ten years ago. They've since mostly pulled out of the U.S. except for a location in Chicago. It's a bigger brand of chocolates in contrast with the dozens of mom-and-pop stores in Bruges. However, their stuff is top quality and consistent. They offer a huge variety and even had plenty of decorative tins available as gifts. Pricing is straight-forward. There is even a foldable guide to the chocolates to include in your gifts. I honestly cannot walk past a Leonidas without going in and buying something.

The service was friendly and the shop was bursting with different gift boxes (mostly Smurf related) but their chocolate didn't stand out much to me. It was good, as all the spots on our tour were, but it didn't have that wow factor and was slightly unmemorable. It is very centrally located and a bit easier to shop in due to it's layout and size, so overall while they weren't my favorite I think it's easy to stop in here while visiting some of the other local chocolate shops and if the person you're buying for is a Smurfs fan this would definitely be the place to go.

When I sent a emails asking them to rectify the problem so I can get my box of chocolates from Canada Customs they ignored all my email.

This was setup bright whites, clean lines & a menu of numbers and descriptions that outlined their unique flavors Combining unique flavors and spices, these rectangle shaped chocolates have soft or hard centers, depending on what flavor you went for Sampling their famous sea salt caramel, we decided their other selections were too unique to pass by Didn't much care for the fact you couldn't buy single pieces of chocolate. We were "forced" to purchase the box of 25......I say "forced" because, who really needs to twist my arm to purchase delicious chocolate? Single flavors come in boxes of 5-pieces & we selected the following: Dark chocolate sea salt caramel - we had a sample of this bar & liked the semisoft filling but ended up passing on the choice in our box of 5 White chocolate hazelnut, coffee - this was among our faves - SO creamy & nutty! White chocolate passion fruit & basil - nice tart taste & the basil even the tone Dark chocolate rhubarb & violet - this tasted like strawberry, not much floral flavor Milk chocolate creme brûlée - outstanding chocolate & creamy filling - another fav in the group Milk Chocolate Sesame - okay in flavor but our least fav in the group So for offering a totally unique concept in a sea of "traditional" chocolateries, and for unique & fun flavor combinations, a happy 5-stars for B by B!
