    We were on vacation and visited this location because we were nearby to see the tallest filing cabinet. The space itself is beautiful, but I wasn't particularly fond of the chocolate. If you're short on time, I'd recommend skipping this stop. However, if you're interested in trying their chocolate, you can find it in some local stores.

    This is a chocolate lovers paradise! Upon opening the door, you must walk up a ramp to enter into a gorgeous chocolate shop. It is cozy and inviting inside with many chocolate options, such as spicy cayenne chocolate bars and truffles shaped and named after iconic Vermont scenes. As expected, there is maple syrup, as well as Lake Champlain merchandise. The items are pricey here, but wonderful atmosphere and delicious chocolate are worth it!

    This is a cute store when you're driving around Burlington in Waterbury Center on Route 200. They sell chocolates, ice cream, souvenirs, and hot chocolate. There's a lot of parking and you can sit inside. Service was good. Their hot chocolate is good.

    Delicious chocolates, so many varieties to choose from. Chocolate bars, with milk chocolate and different levels of Dark chocolate. Peanut butter, caramel, toffee, maple and all kinds of great flavors and fillings. Specialty candies like toffee crunch! Expensive but delicious. In the back was coffee! If you try one thing, try the Vermont Maple Latte.... amazing. The employees were all very nice and did a great job with our large group.

    Stopped in to try the chocolates. They had a sample, which was tasty. The chocolates were expensive, but I couldn't resist getting a few peanut butter cups. YUM! I'd love to have more.

    "How do I love thee? Let me count the ways..." As we now know, Elisabeth Barrett Browning did not experience Lake Champlain chocolates prior to whomever she wrote her famous amorous poem to. Her loss Anyway You're welcome. xoxo ** Made explicitly in Vermont ** **You can purchase these morsels online. Caution** **Souvenirs available for purchase** **Masks are worn by the entire staff indoors**

    The apple cider caramel was a solid favorite of ours!

    Delicious chocolate and friendly staff. We heard about a factory tour, but it was actually more of a seated presentation. As said, the chocolate is great but I found some items a little overpriced.

    This is a great place. Lots of delicious chocolates...single pieces, bars, baggies, holiday themed. You name it and they have it. They have organic chocolates. They serve coffee and other hot drinks. There were free samples around the shop too.

    LCC is expensive but their hot chocolates are so damn good. I buy a can everytime I am up. Located right next to the Cabot Cheese outlet.

    Love it here. Free…read morecompletely free - no admission fee, no parking fee. Very friendly people. Small business vibes. Follow your maps and once you cross the bridge they have tons of signs to direct you, hard to get lost. Trust they're hours, we showed up in the pouring rain and they're still open 9am-5pm weekdays. As soon as you walk in you'll get free samples. We sampled 5 cheeses and 2 grades of maple syrup - it sells itself. One cheese is made with unpasteurized milk - others include sharp cheddar, sage, smoked. Convinced me to try traveling home with cheese for the first time. Tons of products available for sell including from other farms as well. I recommend picking up some of the Red Kite Candy caramels they have there. If you liked it as much as me their factory is about a 30 min drive away. Other activities include petting animals (not in winter), walking trail, and self guided tour of their maple house. Wasn't able to do the trail in the rain but I would estimate you can do all of this in 2 hours. Not at all like Billings Farm if you're concerned about going to both or only have time for one. Billings has an admission fee, no samples of milk or cheese though the make both. More of a museum but they do have up close interactions with their cows (even in winter) for the kids, butter churning, candle dipping. Recommend Billing for taking kids on homesteading field trip, Sugarbush a quick stop for foodie/charcuterie person IMPORTANT: They do NOT sell sugarbush products at any of the stores in Woodstock so don't plan to buy more later and have regrets like us - we looked in every store and couldn't find it. Not sure about Quechee though. Products can also be ordered online and shipped

    I'm a cheese head…read more So when my friend was making our itinerary for a trip to VT, I was really excited to try this place! Weather got a little hariy getting there with the slushy roads, but we made it! It's pretty remote location with no street lights, so if driving in the dark look for the signs to get there and trust your GPS. There's a large parking lot across from the entrance to the little store/shop. The shop is actually the owners old family home I belive. We arrived pretty much at closing time, but we were still welcomed warmly. We got a cheese & maple syrup tasting which was yum and informative, and the staff member that did it was really nice, I forgot her name, but see photo below. One of the cheeses has won a cheese competition, very cool. We also got to meet the owner, but she was busy getting Christmas orders together. I perused all of the cheeses I wanted and settled on 4. We got to try 2 out of the 4 from the cheese sampling. The nice lady that checked me out even gave me some nice to-go samples as well. The smoked cheese was my fav, and the sage. But I enjoyed them all. I was able to easily fly home to TX with them due to the cold weather of the season. After the tasting, we got to peruse the store. They have so much other stuff to buy in additon to cheese and maple, tons of knick-knacks and gifts and merch. We didn't get to explore the farm after since it was pitch black when we left, too bad. Enjoy!

    Went into Champlain chocolates and even though it was busy, they got us our orders quickly and…read moreefficiently. Is the place pricey for wha it is, yes, but is it quality chocolate, also yes. I got the small signature hot chocolate which was delightfully rich and delicious. It was so rich, I don't think I could have had a bigger size if I wanted to. I also got a plethora of chocolates to go, I haven't tried them yet, but they look good.

    Well, I ordered some chocolate bars with hazelnut praline filling for a Victorian Christmas tea…read morethat I was giving. I was surprised to see that the ingredients included a great deal more than chocolate and hazelnut praline. Actually, I was disappointed because we all know it's difficult to get exquisite chocolate here in the United States, I thought Lake Champlain chocolates were a cut above. I looked at the ingredients after I took a bite of the chocolate with hazelnut praline filling because it did not taste right; it tasted like it had other stuff in it besides high quality chocolate and hazelnut praline filling. I looked at the label and sure enough it has a LOT of other stuff in it that should not be in it. I took a photograph of the front and back of the labels but I don't know if I'll be able to upload it. Before you buy, if you are a purist like me, I recommend you read the labels. At least I can tell you that the ingredients included wheat, soy beans, peanuts, and other things that really shouldn't have been included. I am soooooooooo disappointed. Unfortunately, I shall not be buying any Lake Champlain chocolates anymore because I want to buy the real thing. I don't want to buy American corporate reductionist products that just don't measure up. I am actually very sad ...
