The ONLY place to buy homemade chocolate in Birmingham! They've been at it since 2020 (and you know…read morewhat that means!)!!! Starting out a block east of Sidewalk Film Festival theater and Pizitz food hall, they have settled for now across the street from Birmingham Shambhala Meditation Center on the soft corner of Forrest Park, Avondale, Lakeview, and Highland Park. My favorites are the raspberry truffle or the Venus bar which is basically the same thing but flattened into bar form. I can only eat half a square at a time. Because it is SOOOO GOOD. Satisfying. I mean, it's the best. I'll guarantee your money back personally;) Follow your heart. Go with your gut. Is it milk, dark, or buttery white that calls to you? Do yourself a favor and indulge in the sipping chocolate while you shop. Available Thursday thru Sat, this delectable desire you didn't know you had FULL FILLED. Again, I'll pay you back if it doesn't work out. This melty supreme divine sauce just might change your life. And you deserve it.

I've been searching far and wide for the trending Dubai chocolate and I've found some at Chocolata…read more I've had a few of their chocolates before, everything is incredible. All of their products are handmade in small batches. This is certainly some of the highest quality chocolate I've had, and it's a bonus since it's a small, locally owned business. The inside of the store is super small but they have a lot of options. It's a tad expensive BUTTT I'm willing to splurge since it's a small business that only sells high quality items. They also have samples out (at least for each time I've visited). And they et me take a pin for free since I made a purchase!

I popped in to Pastry Art as I wanted to try their confections. They have the cutest little petit…read morefours in a variety of flavors. Customers may pick and choose their flavors of six, 12, 24 and so forth. The shop is small with a small parking lot available. This is great as the surrounding area is crowded on the weekends. The dessert was tasty but the staff were dry. They were so dry it was like they all had a long Friday night so it was a struggle to have to work on Saturday. I would have rated higher as the dessert was good but the experience not so much.

What an excellent idea, baby bites. The perfect size for when you are craving something sweet. They…read morehave so many flavors to choose from, it's impossible to walk away with just one. I ordered four bites: strawberry, Italian cream, red velvet, and caramel. I enjoyed each flavor, the cake was very moist and each icing was delicious. You have free parking in front of the shop and the service was very friendly. In addition to cakes, you can purchase daily prepared meals, beverages, and greeting cards.

I arrived right as they opened at 7 am on a Monday morning. It's a great little neighborhood coffee…read moreshop with amazing empanadas! Plenty of seating, both cushy chairs and benches as well as tables with chairs both inside and out. The cortado is perfect and the potato empanada is very tasty! I could have eaten 4 or 5 of them probably. The barista/server was super sweet and helpful. She made my day for sure.

When me and mi familia were driving through Birmingham, we stopped at El Barrio for dinner. We had…read morea great experience! The food here was great. For starters, we got chips and queso. They were really good. After enjoying the starters, I ordered some chicken tacos. They were great! The guacamole was definitely my favorite part. I really enjoyed my meal. The service here was great! Our waiter was super kind and helpful. The inside was super clean. The bathrooms were very clean too. This place had a good Ambiance to it. Overall, great Mexican restaurant and I highly recommend trying it if you are ever in Birmingham.

Took an Uber to a restaurant to a restaurant for lunch, and found out they were closed for lunch…read more Thank goodness El Barrio was in walking distance and open. They have daily food and drink specials. Today's special was the Cowboy Burrito. It is a brisket burrito. Brisket not my thing so I went with the Bacon Quesadilla. It comes with a salad but I decided to swap it out for the rice and beans. There was a charge. I also ordered the chips and salsa. The salsa is an extra $4. Service was slow at first, but picked up once I ordered.

Genuinely had a top 5 cortado here, the flavors are super unique - there seems to be some Asian influence to their flavors? Love that they use minor figures as well. The guy taking my order was so kind and friendly, inside was clean and inviting and the bathroom smelled incredible lolllll. Check this place out!

I'm obsessed. Been here twice now, two weekends in a row. They're always slammed on weekends, but…read moreit's worth it. Both times I got the seasonal 'matchu peachu,' a peach flavored iced matcha. it was fantastic and the perfect drink for the summer heat. There is usually a line out the door and nearly all the seating full on weekends. I imagine it's much quieter on weekdays, and you could certainly sit here and do some work. There is some outdoor seating, too. The have some Ladybird tacos and a few pastries available, I believe from Last Call. Speaking of, Last Call is two doors down, and makes fantastic pastries.

Every time I go there's a cheerful person ready to watch me indulge in all the carbs. I really enjoy their pop tarts. They're kinda hidden if you didn't know what to look for. Definitely a local gem. Very chill.

First of all....I am sorry, Madi!! The many pictures I took today at the grand opening all…read moredisappeared after my phone glitched, including the very cute one of you! I will update this review with an even cuter photo of you on my next visit, promise! Okay....now that's out of the way lol. I saw on Facebook that Peterbrooke Chocolatier is having their grand opening today, so I had to go check it out. Boy, am I glad I did! They had samples galore due to the grand opening and I got to try several of their yummy selections, including chocolate covered pretzels, chocolate covered pineapple, chocolate covered strawberries, chocolate covered rice krispie treats, etc. While they will not have the same variety of samples on the future outside of the grand opening event, I was told that they will always have a plate of samples out close to the register! They have milk chocolate and dark chocolate for sure....and I am sure white chocolate but I didn't pay attention to that since I am not a white chocolate kind of gal. I can honestly say their milk chocolate is quality stuff. You can definitely tell the difference, no cheap imitation here! Also, they have gelato available in the store.....I want to say at least 10 flavors? I forgot to get an exact count, but they look delicious. Also, and this is a big one for me, they have chocolate caramel green apples. Yes, they do! So there is only one other store in Birmingham that I know of with chocolate caramel apples....but it's no good as the chocolate the other store uses is just not up to par and leaves a funny taste. I eat a lot of chocolate caramel apples and currently I mail-order them as I expect them to be of certain quality. However, I am really excited to try Peterbrooke's chocolate caramel apple next time I make my way there as I already know they have quality chocolate from the samples today! It would be fantastic if I can find a local store with awesome chocolate caramel apples! Anyway, so the fact that my phone glitched and I have no good photos for Yelp other than the one I "borrowed" from their Facebook page and the one I took after I got home of the goody bag they gave out at their grand opening today is the perfect excuse to go back and visit them again....very soon! Oh, wait, almost forgot! In regard to their service? Their employees were super nice! I already mentioned Madi. She was personable and friendly when I met her today and she talked to me about their gelatos and chocolate caramel apples. Nice employees always make any store even more of a pleasure to visit! Thanks, Madi!!

After searching through several Chocolatier's in the Birmingham area looking for family a gift card…read moreso they could have fun choosing their own chocolates, I decided to use Peterbrooke as they had an online e-Gift Card option, where the other shops did not offer this. I decided to call the local store to confirm they would accept the GC and the sweetest lady went above & beyond to help me place an order through the store's register. She sent me a screen shot for confirmation and mailed the GC that day, to family. They were so surprised & pleased! Apparently the online e-Gift Cards can only be used for ONLINE purchases. So keep that in mind.
