I don't eat milk or dark chocolate so when my friends wanted to come here, I was not expecting to try anything. We came here when it opened and you can tell it's a popular spot. There were groups waiting in line to come inside so I was hoping (for the rest of my party) that they would enjoy themselves. The menu had a lot of options. I went up to the counter with my husband to order and was surprise they had white hot chocolate on the menu. Since it's the only chocolate I eat, I decided to order it. I added a hint of vanilla in it. Let me tell you, it was the best hot drink I've had. More places need white hot chocolate in their menu. This is a hidden gem in Lexington and I can't wait to come back

Very fun place to go to if you want to hang out with friends, family, play some board games or even just work/study! I wanted to try their Dark Blossom because I love lavender, however, even though I love chocolate... does chocolate go well with lavender? Lol after speaking with the staff member at the register (who was super helpful, knowledgeable and patient), I was convinced and went for it. I got a hot Dark Blossom and it was DELICIOUS!!!!! The chocolate paired so well with the lavender, it was subtle, smooth, I enjoyed it! I also tried the Peppermint Prince and Peanut Butter Cup that my friends ordered. Very good as well but mine was better :p I really think you can't go wrong, just go with whatever flavor you like.Just watch out for parking, they only have a couple spots available, and if you're with a big group, be aware the drinks may take a little while. All in all, I'd highly recommend!!

Super fun concept - I love hot chocolate! Not sure if it was because the end of the semester was this past week at UK, but my friend and I got there ten minutes after opening and there were items sold out already. Also, online there are baked goods advertised and there was absolutely nothing there. The hot chocolate I ordered was delicious and creamy though so that was a plus! The ambiance is nice for a hangout or study session but be warned the wifi isn't very strong. The service was nice but there were only two employees behind the bar and they definitely could've used a third.

Scrolling through Instagram and I landed on Chocolate Holler and their February Special - Cherry Cordial Hot Chocolate.I'm the weird person who doesn't typically go Gaga for chocolate - but cherry cordials hold a special place in my heart because they were my grandfathers favorite sweet. That flavor takes me back to sharing the candy with him over card games during my school winter holiday.This hot chocolate didn't disappoint! It's a mix of both milk and white chocolate, and the Cherry syrup is superb. It's the perfect balance of sweetness and didn't have the overly cloying sugary taste you sometimes get from drinks like there. 10/10 for me!Bonus - the staff was really fantastic and walked me through how they make their drinks!Pro tip: Chocolate Holler feature lots of seating; during busy hours, don't be afraid to make new friends by sitting at empty seats at shared tables!

Was my go-to for a bit when I worked over there. The coffee itself is pretty solid, and the chocolate sippers are VERY good. I am not a chocolate person and there was plenty of offerings otherwise. Food is okay, like very okay. Baristas are friendly, but its clear who the owner is because they are VERY friendly (not complaining at all). Loved coming here when I lived close by. Great place to study, coffee dates, stopping in for interesting chocolate drinks. Happy to see theyre withstanding the test of time!

I was meeting w a friend from church and didn't have time to take pics. Will add some after my next visit cuz I am definitely going back!! Having never been here, I asked the person behind the counter what was her favorite drink and she explained a few so I ended up ordering a medium(for here) cookie dough hot chocolate. It was served in a huge mug right to the table we picked in the corner. It was phenomenal! I can see why it is a favorite. The hot chocolate was creamy and chocolatey. There was a thick whipped cream sitting on top that will definitely give you a mustache so heads up you'll need a napkin.The inside isn't super clean looking, it's kinda dingy but I think that might be intentional. There are tables nicely spaced out and a huge selection of board games to peruse. It was a lovely experience and again I will update w pics when I get a chance to return.Ps the parking I am told, can be tricky esp because it's near downtown. I had good timing tho because I parked right out front no problem.

I tried this place for the first time this past weekend. It's a charming hot coco specialty shop and I got the hot coco flight! The shop is small so it can be difficult to find a seat but we lucked out as a couple left right as we came in. They also have a decent stash of board games in the back and we opted for Battleship!
