This is a fun place to visit for some decadent treats and gifts. I have tasted their chocolates…read morebefore but never had their sweet and rich donuts. The donuts were very moist and fresh and everyone I shared them with were raving about the flavors they tried. The caramel pecan donut is my favorite. I also wanted some unique chocolates to bring for an upcoming girls weekend and picked up some cute items in their Celebrations section near the back wall. I visited around 11:30 am on a Sunday so there were a lot of cars parked near the Brunch Cafe' and in the parking lot, but I found street parking in a free, 2 hour maximum spot down the street. It was fun to also see seasonal items decorated with St. Patrick's Day and Easter themes already in the store. There are some tables and chairs inside too, to enjoy a coffee and conversation.

First, the entire store is a walk through chocolate history and creations, with a Chocolate Tree in the center. The shop was featured on Food Network! We ordered a chocolate martini, brownie and iced pistachio latte. The chocolate martini was amazing. The martini was rich and creamy. We shared the brownie and it was so rich, we could not finish it. We ordered the iced pistachio latte as the refreshing conclusion to the chocolate feast. A delectable treat in Geneva.

It was a pleasurable experience, perfect on a rainy Saturday spring day. The service was fantastic!! Starting with reservations, which was a "comedy of errors" to the moment we left. Esther's friendliness and attention to our comfort and taste elevated our experience. We started with the light, flakier tasty warm classic scones. Then we moved to the delicious, satisfying, variety of finger sandwiches - the traditional cucumber was perfectly refreshing to clean the palate before the sweet phase of our meal. In the mix there was a spinach-cheese tart which it would have been tastier served warm. I selected a violet dark tea which was lighter than I expected, perhaps it would have been stronger if would have let if brew a little longer. The assortments of pastries/sweets were delectable and mouth-watering - macaron, sponge cake, coconut chocolate drizzled macaroons, custard, and a truffle. All inviting, succulent, and scrumptious. I will be back!

TBE candied apples, taffy apples, etc. I had em at some place in Crystal Lake and am still to make the pilgrimage to Richmond BUFU to the OG Anderson's, but this Barrington location has been there since before covid. Long live chocolate. Expensive AF, but worth it. Life changing really like the first cathode ray TV, MP3s, 4D movies, or being with me. Once you do it, your life is changed. No more taffy apples anywhere else but from here. Hand made. THEY ONLY HAVE THEM APPLES DURING FALL THO. Chocolate covered, taffy, etc.

The young gentleman helping me was incredibly personable and friendly, even sharing the history of the store with such pride and enthusiasm. You can truly tell he loves where he works and values the family/business behind it. I was amazed by the variety and quality of chocolates -- definitely not your average commercial candy shop. Everything felt unique, thoughtful, and special. To top it off, he beautifully wrapped the gift in a box with a ribbon, which made it feel even more personal and meaningful. Definitely returning again -- both for gifts and for myself!

Hey Sugar... Oh that…read moredon't sound right coming from me. Anyhow, I recently needed a place to hangout as I had my car in the shop. I love local coffee joints so stroll by, took a look and gave it a go. Nice, little, quaint shop. Only a few seating spots, but that was fine with me since I got a spot. Of course yelp told me what to do. - Iced Shakerrado + mint - Good. Love me some mint in my coffee. - Chocolate Crossiant - I should be watching carbs, but I just had to... this was yum. Totally worth it.. mentally and emotionally. Physically I don't know. I am pretty sure I'll be coming here in the future since well, I still need regular oil changes and such... But until next time. Stay cute. Stay alive.

UPDATED REVIEW…read more Prices seem to have gone up considerably since our last visit. Even their close-out items don't seem to be priced any lower than what you might see at one of the big-box stores. They do offer a nice selection of snack size portions which is a plus but for peanuts,cashews or most other types of nuts,know your prices before you venture out to Elgin.

I heard about the Fisher Nuts Store from some coworkers who rave about the products here. I…read morespecifically stopped in to make my own peanut butter and was pleasantly surprised by how many products they had! At the "grind your own nut butter" station, they had four nut options: peanuts, carob peanuts, almonds, and cashews. The process was easy to add the nuts, turn the machine on, and put your preferred amount into a container to take home. I also was able to get some fresh honey from Wisconsin. I wish they had an option for a reuseable container but pricing is dependent on weight. Both my peanut butter and honey was just over $8 which I thought was a very fair price. Tip: Their samples are back so be sure to try some of the free tasters.

The bagels are fresh and have that perfect balance--crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. There's a good variety of flavors and spreads, so it's easy to find something you'll like.
