Cute shop with amazing smells. Went with the MARIE MCGHEE'S BUMBLE BEES!! These were amazing with dark chocolate, pecans, and caramel. Not too sweet but the caramel and nuts were so fresh. The worker was nice and I'll definitely be back. The perfect stop for Valentine's Day goodies. Who doesn't like chocolate? read more

I am so glad their candy is available at Publix. Delicious! The famous bolt bites are addicting. We also love the Bumblebees!

I have had Colts chocolate before and knew I would be close by when in Nashville. It was a little sketchy when my Uber was turning down a backroad as I was picturing a busy bustling chocolate factory/warehouse. It's not. It was quiet and plenty of room for shopping. The Colts bolts and Bumble Bees are my favorite. Full of chocolate, peanut butter, nuts, caramel. You cannot go wrong. I spent over $100 in chocolate but well worth it as you don't need to pay shipping when in store. Will definitely be putting in an order once we run out of our stash! read more

purchased a box of their bumblebees, chocolate, caramel and pecan treats at the farmers market in downtown Nashville. I must say these are the best candies that I've had in a long time. They are so delicious and I will be seeking out their store. Very very good. I hope they stick around. Highly recommend read more

Colts Chocolates are sold at many stores around the Nashville area and while I wanted to stop at the store, it was just a bit out of the way from where I was. I did find some of their products at Whole Foods and oddly enough in my hotel shop. I got an assortment of items including the most well known, the bolts in milk chocolate. The Bolts kind of remind me of peanut butter pie but without the pie crust. The filling inside is kind of a whipped peanut butter. I had really wanted to try the gooey butter cakes but I guess I will have to order them online. I really enjoyed the chocolates and they definitely tasted like they were made with care. I would definitely buy them again. read more

Inventory was a little low, but understood considering it was Valentine's Day. I was still able to buy some of each of the favorites that Colts is known for around Nashville. And the woman who was very friendly and helpful, and think she may have been the owner. Recommend Colts to all! read more

I am not a huge fan of chocolate, but my wife is so I frequent here for little surprises for her. Chocolate lover or not just stop in and take a deep breath in because it smells to what I assume what Wonka's smells like. Just chocolate goodness. Staff are super nice and are very helpful. My wife says the chocolate is amazing and she's not no fool! Check 'em out! read more

Yelp keeps bugging me to write a review of Colts Chocolates, so I suppose I will. Keep in mind I was a visitor here as part of a work trip, so I probably didn't have your typical customer experience. Mackenzie Colt (of former Hee Haw fame, apparently! I had never heard of the show but now I have) gave us a tour of the back where they produce the confections, and then sent us all home with goody bags, which were delicious. We got to try a few samples while in-store too, and all of those were also tasty. She gets 5 stars because prices seemed reasonable, both the shop and the bathroom were clean/well kept-up, and it's a cute little store that deserves a stop-by if you ever find yourself in Nashville. read more

We were in Nashville at Adele's restaurant over the Thanksgiving holiday and had experienced the delicious sweets. We live in Florida and decided to order a few packages as Christmas gifts. The package somehow had been lost. Long story short after corresponding with Kyle, they had replaced the missing package. We received the sweets. We and our family will enjoy them. Great customer service. Thành read more

Omg! Amazing!!! My husband and I were waiting for the brewery next door to open and saw this place and decided to go in to browse just to kill time... we ended up LOVING EVERYTHING! And buying a lot of chocolate to take home! The shop is so cute and we were welcomed by the very nice man behind the counter. He told us about the history of the place and all the different samples scattered around the store! He was so great! If he didn't engage with us we would have probably left empty handed, but he totally sold us and the chocolate really was freakin delicious!!! While we were there multiple people came in to pick up orders they had placed and left with BOXES of chocolates and/or pies, it was really crazy to me to see how busy they were. A man even came in and told us he was just here yesterday and had to come back to get more chocolate covered animal crackers!!! He said they were like crack! Lol!!! I opted for the peanut butter cups and the chocolates that represented turtles.... so good! Very happy we stumbled on this place! Must stop here! read more

This place is amazing! Your kids will love it; your grandma will love it; most importantly, YOU will love it. Do you remember Hee Haw? Then you remember Mackenzie Colt, one of the Hee Haw Honeys. (see pic from back in the day) Well apparently she could cook as well and sing and dance. After Hee Haw, she baked pies for Honey Baked Ham (they needed a dessert, don't you know), and then she started this chocolate company, which also sells those pies. I did not try any of the pies, though I now regret that oversight. Maybe I'll go back tomorrow. But there are great chocolate confections. And they provide plenty of free samples to try. My favorite was the chocolate covered marshmallows. They'll sell you a single one if you're trying not to eat a whole bag of them, and they're individually wrapped so they stay fresh as long as possible. And that's one thing I really like: the chocolate has an expiration date. She's not going to sell you chocolate that's not perfect. I really appreciate that. (See pic of her now) This should be on the tours of Nashville. It's a country music song-worthy story from a woman who sang at the Grand Old Opry. Perfect Nashville. read more

The chocolate bolts are amazing. Highly recommend this local chocolatier. Quality chocolate fudge, and other items in their store in Nashville Tennessee. read more

Some day, I will find myself in Nashville, TN. When that day comes, a stop at Colt Chocolates will be a priority. Recently, an awesome friend of ours went to Tennessee. One of the things he brought back was a bag of Marie McGhee's Bumble Bees. The Chocolate Pecans and Caramel flavor. According to the information on the bag, it is a product of Colts Chocolates. It tasted really good!! Can only imagine how their other creations must taste like. Look forward to finding out in the future. read more

Fantastic chocolate shop in Gulch that I fell in love with. There are plenty of samples around the store. If you like them on Facebook, you get a free piece of chocolate. The chocolate peanut butter bars, the Colt's Bolts, are delicious, and you can get them in either milk or dark. Their gooey salted caramel bars steal the show. I've never ever had anything like it. To top it off, they do charity work for an elephant sanctuary if you purchase their animal crackers. Go support them! read more

Came here on a whim as I happened to be parked across the street from it and saw it. They have a few samples of some of their goodies...so I of course helped myself to them all! I bought a few individual chocolate's to stick in my bf's easter basket. While I don't remember which ones they were, I just know they were all pretty darn good! Ugh, the salted gooey caramel butter bar? SOOO good! The mint chocolate marshmallow? Delicious. Jalapeno Almond Ice cream topping? Yum! I recommend swinging by this place when you find yourself with a sweet tooth! read more

Dark. Milk. Heat. Sweet. Salt. Hit every note with these extraordinarily well crafted chocolates. We were looking for pralines and wound up in this small and quaint shop, in an up and coming neighborhood. The former HeeHaw Star was in the house and she was a snooty little piece of nothing nice, but she can rock chocolate. Her store attendant, however was every divine thing as the chocolates and confections they sell. Samples - BEWARE. One taste... and you will think you are sampling Jacques Torres... SERIOUSLY divine chocolates. But their "cookie meets caramel bar meets pie-ish" caramel thingy is OMG! Dainty and elegant packaging, I will ship order for my family and friends and as business gifts from now on. Unlike yuck sugar chocolates from beachy towns, I would give up a Godiva for these MADE IN THE USA, hand crafted pieces of goodness. Yes folks. IT IS THAT GOOD! read more

We also found this place while visiting the Yazoo brewery. The store itself is nice and smells delicious. The lady who was working the counter was friendly and was telling us about the different products and how they make them all right there etc. Our favorite were the bumble bees, we bought a couple bags of those to take home. The only thing I found odd was the TV playing some old show, we then found out the owner was an actress or something and I guess that was a show she was on. Anyways kinda weird, dunno what that has to do with chocolate. read more

We saw it driving by, and on a whim stopped in, and I am so glad we did. The salted gooey caramel butter bar was the shining star. There were samples of everything throughout the store, and I knew from the sample, I would be falling in love with this. I wasn't wrong. My only regret is only getting one. read more

This chocolate shop is so Much fun and delicious. The salted caramel bar omg! Yummy and really cute shop and decor. They even have couches so you can sit and enjoy your colts chocolate read more

Sometimes when you get lost, you find the most amazing places. My mom and I were trying to get back to our car while walking around the Gulch neighborhood. Somehow we ended up behind the parking garage and ended up in what seemed to be the middle of construction land and the middle of no where. Then we saw this little red awning that had the word chocolate on it. Well we have to go in. They had little tasters out everywhere. Everything we tried was really good. Both my mother and I left with a bag full of chocolate to bring home. read more

Lots of free samples!!! Chocolate covered marshmallows are a fun treat that didn't skimp on the chocolate. The caramel butter bites are melt in your mouth delicious. It's a cute spot with tons of character. The owner used to be on Hee Haw, so there's tons of memorabilia decorating the store (a little cheesy but adds to the experience nonetheless). A fun stop for some sweets with the kids :) read more

Stumbled upon Colts Chocolate while walking back from Yazoo Brewery and I'm so glad we decided to walk in. This is a small but mighty shop serving up all sorts of delicious chocolate creations. Throughout the store they had a variety of samples. Everything was so good and we felt compelled to buy a number of different things. My favorite was some sort of an ooey butter cake bar. I forget the exact name but it was crazy good. Prices are reasonable for a small homemade shop and the staff is very friendly. These chocolates make great gifts! read more

Wow. Colts Chocolate is just amazing. The chocolate is rich, and flavorful, the people behind the front desk were kind, helpful, and recommended their favorite chocolates, as that was our first time. The service was wonderful, and everybody maintained 6 feet and wore masks. 10/10, would recommend to all of my friends. read more

We happen to stumble upon this place because we parked across the street on our way to another restaurant. So of course on our way back we needed something sweet. This is a cute little confection shop with a ton of home made treats. The owner Mackenzie Colt was once a actress on the show Hee Haw. You can sample pretty much everything they sell. The staff was friendly and accommodating. They have everything from butter chess pie to chocolate dipped vanilla animal crackers. We tried the new salted caramel gooey butter bite. Absolutely to die for! read more

I've never been to their store but have bought their Colts Bolts several times online and had them shipped to my house. I first learned about Colts Bolts on a Foodnetwork special years ago. Colts Bolts basically make a Reeses Peanut Butter cup look pale in comparison. Colts Chocolates makes the Bolts in muffin tins (filled about half way). They are luscious chocolate and peanut butter with whole almonds inside. And they now also make this treat with dark chocolate for those, like me, who prefer that over the sweeter milk chocolate. You can get tins with 15 of these addicting babies inside for a very reasonable price given the size and the quality. I will admit that my first purchase was solely for me and I ate every last one of them. Trust me, even if you're a chocoholic, you can't eat the whole tin in one sitting. These are hefty, rich treats. Since then, I've bought and used them as gifts and the recipients are always THRILLED and end up asking how they can get more. A "thank you", a hostess treat, or something for someone who has it all...you won't regret giving these a try. I gave them to my sister once after she helped me when I was recuperating from surgery years ago, and she hates me to this day for introducing her to Colts Bolts (she's a health nut normally!). read more

Nom nom nom! I've the small store inside the factory. It is cool to see where the chocolates are made! The parking is not great but there is a pay for parking down the street. The staff is super nice and helpful. I love the salted caramel and the regular chocolate. The peanut butter was just okay for me! read more

I admit I had heard about Colts before I actually shopped here. I bought a box of their handmade butter grahams in the Nashville airport on the way to LA. I didn't even get to eat them - they were for a friend. But she said they were really good. So when a Groupon came up, I jumped at the chance and bought two gift boxes. Let me say that Colts Chocolates are rich and sinful but are just good enough to not make you feel guilty. That's a pretty potent combination. The two $25 gift boxes I bought have 2-3 pieces of several of their mainstay products, and although I'm allergic to one of them (I think it has pecans), I found the rest to be utterly delicious and wonderful. On top of that, the staff was incredibly warm and receptive. I will be going back for sure! read more

This little chocolate shop is adorable. We stopped in on a whim and I'm glad we did. It's very small, but chocolates don't need that much space. I was bummed to not see modjeskas with such a good caramel recipe, but maybe this review will lead to them in the future. Their specialty is their gooey salted caramel bars. They were insanely good. Like, INSANELY GOOD. SO SO GOOD. I'm not sure it's possible to convey in words how much you need to put these in your mouth. I'm not even sure how much I paid for them, but I would sell my first-born child for another one. I highly suggest you stop reading this review immediately and go buy them out of these bars. I know they have to be atrociously high in calories, but they're well worth it. read more

If the only thing to do was to review the product itself, the rating would be higher. The chocolate itself is excellent, the flavors are smooth, sweet, and tasty. Everything is really good. But in the world that I live in, the quality of the product is only one part of the story and the other parts are awkward and difficult. The actual location really isn't a store. They seem to understand this, and they do what they can to make the product accessible in what amounts to a front office of a small factory. Now, let me tell you this right now: bring cash. You can pay with a credit card, but you'll have to do it via the website, even in the store. Cash gets you in and out. It's worth the trip to get Colt's Chocolates, and perhaps will the situation where you go will get better. In the meantime, if you want to order it online, go for it. Totally worth it. read more

Landed here quite by accident. Drove by with two grandchildren in the car. Sign says Chocolate nine times. How could we not go in? Wonderful products. The spicy almond chocolate is right up there with my all time favorites. Colt's Bolts (peanut butter and almonds in milk or dark chocolate) are well worth spending the next few days on Atkins to burn off the carbs. All the candy is made on premises and the quality shows. We live in California and I took a business card so I can order more when what we bought is gone (which is likely to be before we get to the Nashville airport tomorrow.) We come here several times a year and this will be a regular stop. read more

I saw the company on Unwrapped 2.0. Everything look so great I went to the website immediately and placed an order. The order is coming and my 'sweet tooth' can hardly wait. I am a transplanted Southerner so I am excited. read more

I went to this place for the first time a couple of days ago and that was some awesome dessert rush! I tried the new spicy candy and it was quite interesting. The classic Colts Bolts are awesome. And of course, if you've been there before, you know about their phenomenal salty caramel gooey butter bites. The service was very nice and they gave us a tour of the shop. Heehaw! If you want some candy, get some Colts Bolts. read more

Stopped here while waiting for our Yazoo tour, and you should, too! Very friendly staff in the store, and tons of free samples! We went home with some bar chocolate with jalapeño and smoked almonds-some of the best stuff I've ever eaten. Definitely make sure to visit! read more

Colts chocolates has lots of great samples to try and they sell single chocolates so you can take home lots of different things. My only complaint is that the shop is tiny, so with 5 people in it, the space was very cramped. Otherwise worth a visit - lots of samples! read more

If this discount coupon ever comes around again, scoop it up immediately! If not, don't let that stop you from going to this female run/owned business that is operated out of Nashville. Being a transplant to the Nashville area, I am always looking for "go to" places for different things. Colt's Chocolates and Desserts is at the top of the list. Extremely high quality product at a good price point. The owner and support staff are extremely friendly, knowledgeable about the line, and willing to help you shop and make your shopping experience a good one. The only downside is parking, so be patient. This inconvenience is greatly outweighed by the owner telling you her story and you munching on one of her products. read more

All handmade chocolates and desserts! No drinks except for the bottled water. Get your coffee from Barista Parlor around the corner. The whiskey caramel ganache brownie was as wonderfully decadent as it sounds! Everything and I do mean everything was very good. Thanks for all the samples, too! read more

You cant leave Nashville without trying Colts chocolates. Creamy, decadent, rich, but not that too-sickly-sweet taste. The mint chocolate brownies (limited time) were heavenly. Eyes rolled back in your head GOOD! Worth every penny. read more

Great samples, customer service, quaint place! *just FYI no handicap, stroller entrance that I could find. It didn't stop me from parking the stroller inside the door and bring the sleeping baby in the car seat up stairs. read more

This place is the best! Everything here is incredible. The salted caramel gooey butter bites are one of the best desserts I've ever had before. The chess pie and fudge pie are both amazing as well, and they've got beautifully wrapped gift packages for birthdays, Mother's Day, etc. The parking situation is not so great, but it won't stop me from making regular visits! Yum! You've got to go check 'em out! read more
