When we went it was busy, but we were able to get a table right away. Since they are known for their horchata and fartons, it was easy to know what to order. The horchata was refreshing, not overly sweet and not heavy on the cinnamon like it is back in the US. The farton we dipped in the horchata. It was light, airy, warm and fresh. It doesn't have a ton of flavor but it's still tasty. On our second visit, we got the churros and chocolate. We only tried a couple different ones on our trip but the churros here were my favorite. Crunchy outside, soft on the inside, and the chocolate was the perfect level of sweetness for me. Overall, a great spot for a quick dessert, and would definitely eat here again if I was back in Valencia

    I was going to another recommended Horchata spot and our Hotel changed my mind and insisted…read moreCatalina was the best one to visit. As I approached, it was clear this was the spot. They were busy with multiple people taking pictures of the entrance. They have two levels but only the 1st level was being used. I was seated immediately close to the entrance. I didn't see any outdoor seating. Beautifully decorated with Valencia/Spanish tiles throughout. I ordered the specialty Horchata and Bunuelos. Horchata is served cold and is dairy free (although it seems like it has Dairy) and was a bit too sweet for me but definitely one to try. Bunuelos was tasty and had more of a donut texture. They also had Churros and a few other pastries along with Hot Chocolate and Ice Cream. Service was quick and friendly. A good mix of Locals and Tourists. Definitely a must Valencia stop!

    The "Discovery of the Americas" was a gruesome campaign of Colonial greed but it did also lead to…read morethe discovery of chocolate so I guess the whole ordeal was kind of bittersweet (at least for us). On the other hand, my Yelp Discovery of Utopick was anything but bitter; yes some of the dark chocolate has bitter notes but it's of the good kind. If it wasn't for Yelp, I probably wouldn't have discovered this establishment because even if I had known of its existence, I have been so let down by other chocolatiers in Valencia that I wouldn't have expected much. How wrong would I have been? I was lucky enough to be included in a Yelp Chocolate Tasting Event at Utopick; we tried an array of different chocolates ranging from bean-to-bar dark chocolate, to milk chocolate and white chocolate. The dark chocolate was so delectable that it even managed to convince my friend who is a self-confessed dark chocolate hater, or what I prefer to call "not a real chocolate person". Dark chocolate when made properly is amazeballs; dark chocolate made on the cheap at a commercial level for a multinational company tends to be rather dismal. To say that I love chocolate would be an understatement; I'd happily munch on relatively decent commercial crap (except Hershey's, the worst chocolate in the whole wide world) but when faced with a sexy bar of artisan chocolate made with the finest beans and tender loving care then step aside; my precious (think Gollum)! Last but not least, the customer service in their tiny shop is impeccable. You can tell that the manager really loves his craft, that was obvious during the event, and that gives one greater pleasure when purchasing his chocolate because you know it has been made with love (and chocolate). I do also have to point out that I went last minute during Christmas to buy a personalised chocolate bar. It would have typically taken a few days to complete the order but as I was leaving the country before that date, he kindly made an extra effort and managed to complete it before I had to leave. Now that's what I call amazing service.
