We stopped in at this store on a whim. It was buzzing with people. There were many options in the…read moredisplays and prepackaged offerings on the shelving across the displays. We got a little box, filled it with the chocolates we chose, and off we went to try them. We weren't really impressed. The apple one pretty but really sweet. Gingerbread was ok. Coffee was the favorite as it tasted like a latte and didn't kill you with sugar. There were no chili or other spicy chocolates offered, which was something we enjoy. Imagine our surprise when The Chocolate Line came up as the number one store in every review I read. Due to this we returned to try other items in case we missed what made them so popular. Nothing was memorable. We actually preferred items from 2 other local shops listed in the top reviews. We're not certain if we selected the wrong options or if we have pedantic chocolate taste buds.

Van Hoorebeke is known for being one of the first to open up his kitchen to viewing from the public, thus the clear floor window into their kitchen that's viewable from the street. We tried the hazelnut praline and while it was tasty and the service was friendly it wasn't enough of a standout to purchase for us. To be honest I probably would have chosen a different flavor for the tour as it was slightly unmemorable. All that being said, it's good chocolate for the value so I would recommend stopping in if you're visiting Ghent.

The owner takes a lot of pride in her product and runs a no nonsense business that is amazing. Sure you can go some some fancy "foo foo" places and pay more for your chocolate but I always end up filling my suitcase to take stuff home from here. You are likely visiting the Church of the Holy Blood when in town so why not just stop next door to grab some awesome chocolate. Dit is mijn "go to spot" in Brugge of eigenlijk België. Ze hebben uitstekende chocolade en zeer redelijke prijzen. Ze hebben het meestal behoorlijk druk, maar staan ​​altijd klaar om te helpen. De eigenaar is erg trots op haar product en runt een no-nonsense bedrijf dat geweldig is. Natuurlijk kun je naar een paar chique "foo foo" -plaatsen gaan en meer betalen voor je chocolade, maar ik eindig altijd met het vullen van mijn koffer om spullen mee naar huis te nemen. Je bezoekt waarschijnlijk de Kerk van het Heilig Bloed als je in de stad bent, dus waarom stop je niet gewoon naast de deur om wat geweldige chocolade te pakken.
