It had a beautiful interior with extremely cute designs of chocolate, initials, wedding giftsets, necklaces and boxed chocolate at reasonable prices. I came here for the first time and picked out a bag of coffe beans inside dark chocolate for $4.85 and I bought 100g of ginger milk chocolate for $5.70. There were seven pieces of them and they were THE LARGEST ginger milk chocolates I've ever had. They're the size of Godiva truffles! The ginger pieces were HUGE and i did taste the spice it in. Liked it a lot, but I would love it if it was a little more spicy (just cause I'm a really big fan of ginger) I like to use the ginger milk chocolates when comparing chocolate stores because this is an item I get at every chocolate store. Coming back for the blue blueberry chocolates and the red cherry chocolates!!

From the outside, this place looks like it is perpetually closed - a small, dark little store that…read moreyou will walk past and easily miss if not paying attention. Inside, the store is covered floor to ceiling with endless varieties of chocolates and chocolate-related stuff. The chocolate is great quality, because they make everything from Callebaut chocolate. Try the bars, or the melt-in-your-mouth truffles (caramel or plain are my favs). Me being a bit of a chocolate snob, I'd say this place is the only chocolate store in Hamilton I would buy chocolate from.

This chocolate shop is amazing! It's small, but the quality is incredible. Everything tastes fresh…read moreand well-balanced. Quality chocolate has a subtle silkiness to it, and Forrat's definitely delivers on that silkiness. Every time I walk in to the store, the lovely shopkeeper is working behind the counter on a new batch of handmade chocolates. Their truffles are delicious, and their meltaways and their chocolate treats are so good! I love their hot chocolate, and their Mayan chocolate (with cinnamon and chili).

The chocolate was delicious and we were able to take home a good amount of chocolate truffles for the price! We also received 2 small lava cakes that we decorated and were baked during class. There is ample parking and the entrance is right at the parking lot. Will definitely come back to take another class!

We learned about the history of chocolate and were able to taste different samples! We also made a handful of chocolates that we took home, along with mini chocolate lava cakes! It's totally worth the price!! David was amazing! We had to reschedule our session due to workshops closing because of covid and he was very responsive and understanding! I would definitely recommend doing as a couple, with family and group of friends!! So fun

We'd just finished eating a tasty brunch at the nearby Undefined and figured we should try to get…read moresomething for dessert. Chocolat on James seemed like a perfect solution, since we could get something sweet but not insanely filling. A quick perusal of their many offerings led me directly to their Tortoise, so I went with the milk chocolate version and it was fantastic. I've always been a fan of turtles (who isn't, really?) and this was absolutely one of the best versions I've ever had. The chocolate was delectable and the pecans and caramel inside was just as good. I'm almost glad that Chocolat on James is so far away from my apartment, because I could see myself eating those Tortoises on a daily basis.

Terrible ice-cream and cone. It was $3.99 for a two scoop ice cream cone. I got the mint ice cream…read moreand double chocolate. I have never tasted more artificial flavours. The mint ice cream tasted like mouthwash and the cone was so hard. How is an adult suppose to bite into this titanium-like waffle cone, let alone a child? This is the only ice cream parlour in Jackson Square, but after today, I'll never step foot inside again. Just appalling.

For someone who eats quite a bit of ice cream, I can guarantee that was a very reasonable price given the size of the scoops. Only downside is that the ice cream started to melt as soon as I got them and turned out to be very messy, but I asked for a cup and a spoon with my order so just flipped my ice cream over into the cup and tadaa it became a little less messy. I loved both the flavours I went for however the truffles (white and regular chocolate chunks) in the ice cream were a little hard, I wished that had melted instead of the ice cream. Regardless, cute spot, worth the price and experience, will probably go back if I'm in the area.

The chowder let the seafood shine, which is exactly what it should do!
