This lovely chocolate shop is easy to find as there is always a crowd looking through the window and gathering at the small sales stall on this quaint walking street in the heart of the old city. Legend has it that Chocolate from Lviv was well known from the middle ages. In the 19th century, chocolate was exported from Lviv to aristocracy throughout Europe. There is a small café at the entrance where there are many flavours of hot chocolate and coffee to choose. All the chocolate candies made here can be sampled before you go to the shop. Milkshakes, ice cream, cakes and snacks are awaiting you as well. Also on the ground floor, one can view the actual workshop where these delicacies are made. We saw a group of school children on a tour, complete with protective clothing, gloves and head gear actually making their own chocolate! Souvenirs and toys are made of chocolate and purchases can be shipped from here world-wide. This is truly a unique experience and a must for chocolate lovers of all ages!
Great, original chocolate, a relaxed atmosphere, and lots of unique presents to buy for people back home for whom L'viv is on the dark side of the moon. A lovely, hand-picked box of chocolates also makes for a classy hostess gift.
