Loved the hot coco flight here! They even let me customize it which was awesome. I also liked that they had seasonal flavor specials. Super cute spot great for a solo date! read more

Cacao - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

I came seeking a hot chocolate. This is a sizable cafe and offers various baked good as well. If you're going to charge the amount that they do for a chocolate beverage, it had better have a complex, fruity flavor with just a hint of sweetness. Theirs did, and I got the dulce de leche variation for an extra flavor hit. Cacao is an expensive plant, but there is no doubt that it is worth it. read more

Extremely good drinks and service. I went here and split two drinks: the drinking chocolate and the shaken drinking chocolate. While they did take a minute to make, they were worth the wait! read more

Big fan of the chocolate chip cookie, especially when it's warmed up. The flavor of the cookie is very rich and has a vanilla hint to it. I'm also a fan of the imperfect almonds, not sure if cacao still sells it now. read more

Very nice coffee shop with great pastries and chocolates. The staff are very nice in here! One the best chocolate chip cookies in the city too. The chocolates are a little pricey so I don't go that often but when I do I always get the coconut truffle!!! read more

We stopped by cacao on a whim after seeing they had hot chocolate. I don't like hot drinks, so I was really excited to see that they had an iced hot chocolate on the menu. It was incredible. It was rich, decedent, and super filling. It was hard to finish because it was so rich. Truly incredible!! Small space, not so many seats but the service was quick! read more

Cacao - Iced Hot Chocolate - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Super cozy spot in the South End of Boston! We got the coffee and chocolate olive oil cake and they hit the spot on a cold snowy day. Vibe is casual and there are a decent number of seats. They also had chocolates from all around the world on display which was great. Their chocolate boxes also seemed like a good option for gift giving. read more

I love the "Iced Hot Chocolate" here. Delicious and not too sweet. I would go as far as to say that it's the best in the area (that I know of). It's a cute little shop. I try to stop by whenever I'm in the area. 4 stars. Would be 5 stars if they didn't close so damn early! read more

Wonderful addition to the South End which forces (obviously?) on chocolate of all kinds.... Bars, pastries, cookies and hot, cold and frozen chocolate drinks. Also of course tea and coffee. Cozy space with a laid back vibe and friendly staff. Black and white tile floor and homey touches abound I had a frozen chocolate white was not to sweet and a really good chocolate and raspberry cookie warmed up Pleasant music playing and just lively enough with it being loud. read more

This is a lovely cafe with a cozy interior and perfect for a slow morning start! I tried the matcha latte and an almond croissant. I found the latte to be rich and not too sweet. The croissant was flaky and had a good amount of filling, with a strong almond flavor. The workers were also super friendly and made the cafe feel super welcoming! read more

What a wonderful shop! First glance overwhelming with opportunity which is a great place to be. Unhurried you are able to admire the display of baked goodies and magic truffles while reading ingredients, asking questions, and considering options. The team is so friendly and atmosphere business casual kind of chill. Definitely could be a fun remote work spot or nice for a date, though the seating is more open space and economical vs cozy. I still love it! I tested 4 dairy free, gluten free truffles including passion fruit, espresso, ganache, and pure chocolate. The flavors were distinct, textures cohesive and complimentary and each felt like they were topped with love. For my drink I opted for the bittersweet dark and no milk as I love my drinking chocolate straight. It was such a great pick and I can't wait to return. This is something I've been searching for, thank you! read more

This is a lovely chocolate store. We tried the frozen chocolate and cookie and they were so good! The chocolate is rich without being overly sweet. Everything on display looked so appealing. There is indoor and outdoor seating but not enough table space for you to settle down and study/do work there. There is a steady flow of customers. Cute and clean space inside read more

Another super cute coffee find in Boston! I'm so glad I stopped by at their South End location. The space is gorgeous and great for coffee photos. They also have some indoor and outdoor seating if you don't want to get your stuff to go. I tried their dulce de leche latte and chocolate chip cookie and both were absolutely delicious. Definitely will be back for their hot chocolate and other treats in the winter! read more

Cacao - Assorted 8 for $20 - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Upon walking in, I noticed that Cacao had a modern and clean design with some seating available. Cacao had a fall menu for drinks which I found rather interesting. I ordered the pumpkin spice hot chocolate and their chocolate chip cookie. The pumpkin flavor was subtle but not overpowering which was nice. The hot chocolate was not too hot and did not burn my tongue or anything. The drink was not overly sweet or rich, which made it easy to finish over time. My only complaint would be that there was some un-melted chocolate at the bottom of my drink. The chocolate cookie was delicious. It was not too sweet and had a good amount of chocolate chips present. I did find it a little too salty, but I enjoyed the contrast of flavors present throughout the cookie. I would love to come back and try their other pastries or chocolate covered snacks. Overall, it is a pretty nice cafe where you can chill and chat with some friends. read more

Cacao - Chocolate Chip Cookie - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

The service here is wonderful--everyone is so friendly and welcoming! There's currently some construction nearby, so the scaffolding covers much of the outdoor seating, but you can already tell it will be a lovely, relaxing spot once that clears up. In the meantime, there's plenty of comfortable seating indoors along with WiFi, which made it a great place to get some work done while enjoying a delicious mocha. read more

Cacao gave me the best chocolate chip cookie of my life!!! I am so sad we are visitors and can't return frequently. We loved the vibe of this spot and friendliness of the staff. We didn't particularly love our lattes as they were not very sweet or strong and mostly like a light caramel milk. read more

My friend and I went here and had a frozen and an iced hot chocolate (we're hot blooded). They were delicious - not too sweet and not too bitter. We sat outside on the patio but the inside is very dark and cozy - a bit on the modern side. Baristas were lovely. read more

I stopped by Cacao for the first time to try their chocolate chip cookie, which I've heard good things about. The place is clean and visually appealing, with decor that catches the eye. They offer chocolate options, mainly dark chocolate, pastries, coffee, and small bites. I enjoyed hearing Spanish music and seeing Dominicans working there. I ordered a matcha latte and a chocolate chip cookie. The matcha was perfect, but the cookie wasn't my favorite. I'm not a fan of salt on cookies, and the dark chocolate was a bit too intense for me. However, this is a cute coffee shop with lots of good things to try. Definitely check it out! Plus, it's Dominican-owned. read more

Wonderful chocolate shop with a new outpost in the South End. Finally have a Cacao closer to home so I had the chance to stop by for my first visit. While I was tempted to get a drink, I only ordered the chocolate chip cookie and some chocolate bark. Both were delicious and I can't wait to try more items. The staff is great and the shop is very cozy and great if you just want to enjoy your treats inside. Can't wait to visit again. read more
