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.

The line here is always long, but it moves relatively quickly. The ambiance here is family friendly. However, there's limited seating inside and you have to have seating before being able to order their hot chocolate in a mug. When you order, there's 2 sizes for hot chocolates and you can get either a white chocolate, milk chocolate, or dark chocolate hot chocolate. The large milk hot chocolate was so rich and a perfect balance of cream to chocolate, which made it an optimal size to share amongst 3 people. The sweetness, warmth and texture make it a nice sweet treat on a cold or rainy Boston day. The drinks were a bit expensive, but this hot chocolate falls in my top 3. I'm glad that my friend recommended this place to recharge before dinner.

Läderach took over 34 of Godiva's leases in the U.S., after Godiva closed all of their brick & mortar locations. We tried a few of their chocolates but ended up going with the milk chocolate hazelnut to take home! Very delicious. I also got one of the truffles/bonbon to try: pralines pravé Trinidad and I'm excited to try it later. Our total was ~$16 for both items. They have a lot of options to choose from, which I love! Everything seems to be well made & tasty. One of my favorites we tried was a strawberry chocolate & seemed like they used real sun dried strawberries to make it. Highly recommend trying Läderach if you haven't yet!

Today i walked by the location at prudential and there was a gentleman outside with milk choco - hazelnut bars broken up for samples. I said "hey i love that particular combo" so agreed to take a sample. Went back about 20 min later with the lady and bought a a broken chunk from their large slabs. I honestly don't have receipt but forget if it was 4oz or 8oz haha i ate it already. It was 16 bucks. The lady opted for a fudge cube pralines pavè Trinidad. They checked us out gave us nice bag and packaging and we were out. The choco sampling did it for me expensive yes but it was so clean and good. I'd get it occasionally in the future. Don't be afraid to ask for samples, they'll gladly let u try (at least the big slab ones) not sure about the Bon Bon style ones.

All I can say is visit here for at least free samples and figure it our what to do next…read more Amazing chocolates from Hokkaido, Japan. They even have own JR station very near by Shuttle and 7min walking distance Royce' Chocolate is something

Royce chocolate is one of Boston's best chocolate companies. I think that it is truly one of the…read morebest chocolates in the world. 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!

Oatmeal raisin is never the choice when chocolate chip is around, but Levain's oatmeal raisin is incredible. There are definitely less raisins now than there used to be, but I'm fine with it because I'm really only in it for the soft, cookie dough goodness anyway. Service is quick and speedy since there's always an outrageous line, but well worth it to gain 4lbs in 25 seconds.

Our server was extremely patient with us as we took a long time picking out exactly what we wanted, and once we were ready, she was there ready for us with a smile. Sounds like a little thing, but it took away all that awkwardness you can feel when staring at cookies for way too long. The shop itself is really cool inside. Love the small seating area out front, perfect for people watching on Newbury. And finally- the cookies themselves were all great. We got a Chocolate Chip Walnut, Two Chip Chocolate Chip, and a Raspberry Pistachio. All were fresh, tasty, and certainly worth the trip. Levain lives up to their reputation and proves to be a great spot with great service. Will definitely be back!

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.
