This House of Chocolates really is what it says. It is a charming little shop on the corner of a…read morecharming green in Richmond. If it was all anymore enchanting it would be in a Disney cartoon. When I walk in I have to resist the urge to start chewing at the walls just to see whether this shop is actually made of chocolate. So, it is a relatively small premise, but simply filled to the brim. Mainly this shop sells individual chocolates; cream filled, praline, nougat, dusted, dark and many more. They also sell a section of Thortons chocolates as well. Because I came in near Christmas there was plenty of Christmas gifts, such as chocolate Santa's and snowmen. I'm sure Easter is just as well represented. This is also a prefect place to pick up gifts. There are walls of chocolate gift boxes, ranging in size from a few chocs to around a hundred. Anyone want to buy me a present from here?

I have lived in Oxford for about 6 months now, and have loved the great range of pubs, coffee…read morehouses, and restaurants. However, I have a longstanding preference for not repeating myself, either in terms of venues or or meals. Coco Noir has forced me to violate that personal rule. I've been there more times than I've been anywhere else in Oxford, many times over, and I don't feel guilty at all. Worse still, I almost always get the langostinos, which are near-divine Sicilian pastry, filled with a range of creamy goodness. The proprietor is so warm and friendly, and recognises us every time. The coffee is great, and priced affordably. The Belgian chocolates are just beautiful, and the atmosphere is warm and inviting--bringing in a range of people. Today, there was a pensioner couple, a single lady, a couple of boisterously polite tweens with their mums, and four young attractive Italian ladies. Bottom line: go whenever you can, tip well, and savour EACH flavour of the glorious langostinos!

It all ended up in the bin! Total waste! I emailed for a refund and I can't see that happening. Bad customer service and bad quality overpriced chocolates.

I would say buy Cadburys much cheaper and without the disappointment!

I went into a million artisinal chocolate shops in London searching for gifts and the best…read morechocolate and this was one of my favorite places for fine chocolate! (Tied in 1st for my favorite London chocolate was the Pump Street chocolate curated by Harrod's department store, and one from Whole Foods hah!) Paul A Young is famous and won awards for their salted caramel chocolates, unique and unlike any other I've had because they're much softer than the usual caramels, but at the same time not completely liquid. I personally thought their brownies were the best part - they seemed overly dense but were so rich and perfectly decadent. I also purchased the sampler of different varieties of milk and dark chocolates, and it was my least favorite because I felt the darks were a little too dry and bitter and the milks were too creamy and sweet. I'd recommend you taste the samples on the main table before purchasing. The truffles were beautiful and the flavors unique but personally I was not a big fan (except for the salted caramels). Overall, highly recommend a visit here for the salted caramels and brownies!

Unique flavors give the truffles personality, such as basil, porter with pretzel chunks, PB&J, mango and lime daiquiri, and my favorite named chocolate: Seedy Soho. So they do a twist on classic flavors with fun names, and of course, a beautiful presentation. Each chocolate runs £2 each, with a quantity discount as you buy more, example, a box of 4 will be £7. If you're looking for something the kiddies may enjoy, the chocolate covered brownies are the way to go, and are not only pretty but are fairly large and only run £2 each. Expiration dates vary, so definitely be sure to ask about each before making a purchase, if you are planning to gift them later down the line. Many of the hand-selected chocolates last only about 7 days, others a little longer depending on the contents. I always feel strange about going into a business where people hover and follow around as if I might break or touch something they don't want touched--that's sort of how it's felt the few times I've been inside the store. No doubt, there are phenomenal displays of chocolate out in the open that they simply don't want messed with: a round table in the center of the room with truffles and other delicacies jutting out in intricately placed rows, a vat of "Aztec" hot cocoa that appears as thick as sipping chocolate, trays and trays of chocolate covered brownies, and shelves adorned in boxes of truffles and molded chocolates, so perhaps that's why the staff make it a point to keep a keen and wandering watch over their guests. So I'll definitely return for the chocolate covered brownies since they're so rich that they taste like chunks of pure fudge, an also pop in for hand-selected chocolates for gifts, I just wish it didn't always feel like "big brother" was watching all the time...

They do small cups for 1.50, and larger ones for 3, all from hand-roasted cocoa from their kitchen. There is no milk in it, and its rather thick, leaving a lovely aftertaste in your mouth.
