That said, if you're a chocoholic and love trying flavors from around the world it's worth dropping by. I came by to get some valentine boxes and the staff were very nice + efficient so they moved through the long line easily. I must say, wow their chocolate selection was impressive! The display was stocked full of unique truffles and their packaging was beautiful. We were happy with most of the chocolates but one did taste a little stale unfortunately. Otherwise, definitely a nice spot to find a gift for a special someone!

I got a small milk hot chocolate and it was very tasty! It was rich and decadent, but still had a good amount of sweetness. I also thought it was the perfect balance of being thick and still drinkable. If I lived in Boston, I would be frequenting this shop especially during the winter.

Yelp Review 2026 #216:…read more Call me a snob but I don't like American chocolates. They're too sweet, doesn't give you a nice thick mouthfeel and they smell funky. I heard L.A. Burdick has high standards when making their chocolates by hand - similar to chocolatiers in Europe. So, I bookmarked this place and followed them on social media. I learned this location has ice cream as well. I was shopping and walking along Boylston/ Newbury. Had dinner at a restaurant in the area and wanted to grab some chocolates from L.A. Burdick after. The map app had us walking along some shady alley that stunk of hot garbage and piss which made me wonder if it's even worth it. I get to the shop and swarms of World Cup fans also had the same idea to come here. They have a counter for chocolates, a counter for ice cream, and a dining area. I just had a big dinner with dessert so, my plan of getting ice cream had to be ixnayed. They have truffles, bon bons, drinking chocolate (in white, milk and dark), whole cakes, cake slices, cookies, linzer torte, fruit tart, and macarons/ Luxembourger. I got a box of chocolates. Some truffles and animal-shaped chocolates because I know those are their specialty and proudly handcraft. They're good - comparable to European chocolates. They put your selections in a box and wrap it up nicely and put it in a bag. So, it takes time. Be patient.

It definitely makes great gifts. There's lots of options including chocolate coated potato chips. Ive purchased both the white and chocolate potato chips. I didn't like the taste of the white chips.

The milk in their milk chocolate comes from cows in Hokkaido, Japan... and they use more milk and cream, in their chocolate, than any other chocolatier I know. The resulting product is milk chocolate that is so creamy... It literally MUST be refrigerated. The soil is very rich, in Hokkaido, Japan, making the grass grown there, for their cows, VERY nutrient dense. THAT is what makes their milk and cream some of the best in the world. The Royce Chocolates staff is consistently highly educated, both about Royce's history and chocolate in general. They will patiently answer all your questions. If you want to learn about chocolate, this is the place to do it. THE DEAL: if you want some of the best chocolate in Boston, you have to try Royce chocolates!

Honest thoughts: The cakes were indeed beautifully crafted, but $13 was overpriced. The cake quality didn't meet the steep price. The cafe was self-service and some furnitures were quite worn out. From their ig, I saw the price tag was ~$9 last year. It was aggressive to raise $4 within a year.....It would be more reasonable to charge at or under $10. ＊Autumn Leaf $13 * This seasonal special was my favorite. Spiced sponge and pecan crunch were wrapped inside the subtly sweet maple mousse, with a hint of banana flavor coming through midway. The spiced cake tasted like fall. ＊Geometric Apple $13 The geometric apple is their bestseller but I found the flavors didn't match well with one another. The outer layer was cheesecake mousse, while the center was filled with apple compote, caramel, and chocolate cake. The cake was quite sweet, and the sourness from apple put me off. The chocolate crunch inside was too hard to eat.

The cafe itself is clean and surprisingly large, with 3 levels of seating. I picked the geometric apple; made of cheesecake mousse, apple compote, caramel, dark chocolate crunch, and a chocolate sponge. I can happily say the dessert tasted as good as it looked. All of the layered flavors worked well together resulting in a delicious treat. $13 for one dessert is a splurge to me, but it was worth it. Service was fast and friendly. Would love to visit again and try a different item.

We came for dinner and I got the turkey and brie sandwich. The brie melted in your mouth and paired perfectly with the crunchy vegetables and turkey in the sandwich. There was also a layer of fruit jam which created a salty sweet combination that was delicious. I also shared a warm custard bread pudding for dessert with a friend (be aware that you have to order this 30 minutes ahead as they bake it fresh!) which was so yummy - it was quite sweet but gooey and a lovely mixture of caramel flavors that paired nicely with the vanilla gelato. Prices are on the higher side but align with the attention that is paid to each plate! They have a super cute bookstore next to the cafe which is fun to browse. The set-up is within three stories of a house and the decor/design inside is very cozy - definitely worth checking out. On the third floor children's section there is a toy train that periodically circles the top of the room which is a fun touch too!

The wonderful waitress, Sabrina, saved this from being a one star review. First the food. You pay $15 on the kids menu for literally a scrambled egg on an unbuttered piece of toast. Nothing else on the plate. The $24 breakfast is two scrambled eggs on white toast with a few cherry tomorrows on top and a side of small meatball-looking turkey sausages. I was shocked, but since I was with my child, I didn't want to say a thing. There is absolutely NOTHING on this menu worth the cost or experience. Also, they do not pour the tea and if you ask for milk (typically served with dark teas) the waiter gives you impatient side-eye. The cafe has everything, EVERYTHING which could really make it a spectacular experience, and I can say that I will never go again or recommend. Get a muffin and coffee/tea at Tatte or Flour Bakery and skip this cafe and go straight to the book store. The bookstore is a joy.
