"This place was totally worth the drive. Small shop, but it smells amazing the second you walk in, coffee, chocolate, pastries, all of it, they had it all. The staff were super nice, just good vibes all around. I was craving hot chocolate and this spot really delivered. I got La Parisienne, a hot chocolate that was dark, a little bitter, smooth, and rich… exactly how I like it. That mix of flavors just hits right. The whipped cream with a dust of cocoa powder on top was the perfect finish. Also grabbed an almond croissant, and man, that was a good move. Flaky, buttery, with that nutty flavor that just goes so well with the hot chocolate. Dipping it in? Yeah, that’s the way to do it. Everything together made it feel like one of those slow, perfect mornings you don’t want to rush."

"I'm sure the Hot Chocolate is good on a normal day. We must have come on an off one. To start, our barista immediately informed us they were unsure about whether I would be able to have whipped cream with my hot chocolate due to having to make some. As a fellow barista, I knew this is a short task and would happily wait. They did not offer to make it, I had to ask, and they seemed confused as to why I would agree to wait. My request was thankfully obliged, as I feel it's criminal to serve this type of hot chocolate without whipped cream. I ordered 2 Parisienne. Based on the reviews and the menu, it is described as "sweet" "rich" and "thick". Not only was I served without a spoon initially, which led me to mix in most of the already sparse whipped cream, but I recieved what seemed to me to be a normal hot chocolate with a scoop of some 60% cacao mixed in. I wanted to try to get the attention of either of the baristas, since the sign clearly states to hand your dishes to them and I was concerned I may have recieved the dark chocolate drink by mistake, but neither of them could spare a glance in our direction. Since they didn't acknowledge us, even as we placed our full mugs on the pick-up area, I suppose I will never know. I have been to Europe many times and was looking forward to drinking what was described in reviews and on the menu. Please consider visiting yourself if you'd like to get a good frame of reference for a European hot chocolate."

"Small shop specializing in chocolate drinks but also carrying a pretty standard fair of pastries. Everything we got was pretty good, staff were kind, and the shop also has a good selection of specialty chocolate bars on offer."

"It has become one of my favorite spots in Chicago..! Many interesting chocolate selections with great chocolate drinks. The staff is a great baker. ✨🍫🍪Chocolate chip cookie was a MUST. It amazed me sooooo much. Soft chewy center with crunchy edges. The taste had layers of depth, they told me it was a 4-chocolate mix. 🍫❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥European hot chocolate was a kisssssss from the sweetness. Please have it with their housemade whipped cream! The hot chocolate with chill cream on the top was a beautiful combination. 💛🧡🤎Bonbon was a great option if u just want a bite. Olive oil & lemon one was good for sure."

"The chocolate is so good and high quality!Came here for a food tour. We got the drinking chocolate and two types of dark chocolate bars. The drinking chocolate was absolutely rich and indulgent, and the two different cocoas had distinctly unique, tasty flavors. You can see what the notes are on the labels, or try and guess what they are first! The seating seems nice too."
