I recently visited Maeve chocolate in August 2026 on a short trip to Seattle, Washington. I read about their Seattle-Tukwila shop in a travel guide at the Hyatt Regency Lake Union. They also sold Maeve chocolates on site at Hyatt Regency too. I had no idea Seattle Chocolate rebranded and changed their name on their bars to Maeve until this visit. I have bought Seattle Chocolate truffles in the past and sort of missed seeing them in stores. I checked their store out, but only had about 5 minutes before closing. Most chocolate bars were $7 and although I wanted 6 I budgeted myself to 3 for $21. They were all very good. The huckleberry one just melts in your mouth. Luckily, I found their bars at Cost Plus World Market. Since it's wholesale some of the chocolate at World Market is more, but some is much less. I got one bar on sale for only $4 at World Market. New Seasons Market also sells them too. I'm so glad I know where to find them in Portland, Oregon. The decorations in the store are really cute including the pig and huckleberry bear. They do tours and tastings too. Their flavors are very unique and incorporate fun fruity flavors which is something I definitely can melt away with. I love that they are women owned and ethically sourced. They also say that they give 10 percent of their net profits back to community projects. The candy bar packaging is so cute too and gives a happy vibe. I will continue to buy their chocolate as a special treat or for gifts.
I tried Seattle Chocolate Presents Maeve Apple Cider Donuts Truffle Bar (w/ Biscotti, Demerara Sugar, and Cinnamon) - not bad, i prefer dark, but didn't taste donuts? Not worth the six bucks for me, but if you like these combos check her out.
An amazing tour - highly recommend! There's great information and our guide, Ashley, was really knowledgeable. There's great information history of Seattle Chocolate/Maeve was very interesting and the store is gorgeous.
I had never even heard of this chocolate brand until a friend took us for a tour. We had such a great time, our guide was great, I learned a lot about how to make chocolate, we enjoyed trying different flavors and the discount on purchases at the end was helpful. I loved the vibe of the place it was fun and a huge plus that it's women owned. I brought some stuff back home with me and everyone loves it!
I attended a tour and tasting at Maeve Chocolate and left impressed. The tasting featured six distinct chocolates -- everything from bright, fruity single-origin bars to richer, high-cacao pieces -- and while all were tasty, I generally preferred the darker, more complex offerings. The textures were clean and the flavor development in the dark bars (bitter-sweet, with subtle fruit and spice notes) stood out. The tour guide They were excellent, personable, clearly passionate, and very knowledgeable about bean sourcing, tempering, and flavor profiling. Their demos on conching and tempering made the process tangible without getting bogged down in jargon. Some history Maeve Chocolate's shift from the Seattle Chocolate name reflects a move to emphasize craft, single-origin sourcing, and a modern identity that better represents their focus on ethical sourcing and flavor-driven small-batch production. The new name and packaging celebrate provenance and the personalities behind the beans, while preserving the company's Seattle roots and commitment to quality. Highlights Six thoughtfully curated samples showcasing a range of cacao percentages and origins. Strong preference for the dark chocolate line -- nuanced, well-balanced, and memorable. Informative, engaging guide and a concise, behind-the-scenes look at production. Friendly tasting pace that allowed time to savor each piece and ask questions. If you appreciate chocolate craftsmanship and want a guided tasting that balances technique with flavor exploration, Maeve Chocolate's tour is worth it.
Walking into Maeve Chocolate felt like stepping straight into Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory. The whole place smells like warm chocolate and sugar, and it honestly feels a little magical the second you walk in. Everything looked so beautifully made and the chocolate tasted super rich and high quality. You can tell a lot of care goes into what they make here. It's the kind of place where you walk in planning to get one thing and leave with a whole bag because everything looks so good. Very fun ecperien If you love chocolate or just want a cute little treat stop, this place is definitely worth visiting!
We attended their Valentine's Day workshop "The Key To Your Heart" which is a box puzzle game with two boxes of chocolates as the prize. The puzzles to unlock the box were slightly challenging and fun! The crew has put a lot of thoughts in it! Highly recommend this activity! The shop is very welcoming with lots of cute and colorful decorations. The staff kindly offered us two different types of chocolate for tasting and mentioned that we could try either one. I chose one to start, and it was smooth, rich, and not overly sweet. After that, we continued browsing and picked out about $80 worth of chocolates to bring home. When we went to pay, I decided to try the second flavor that was still available for sampling. As I reached for it, a staff made a comment about me going for my second piece. It caught me a little off guard. Considering we had just purchased a fairly generous amount, it felt unnecessary to point it out. I understand that samples are meant to be limited, but the remark made the moment slightly awkward when it had otherwise been a pleasant shopping experience.
Five Stars for the Maeve / Seattle Chocolate factory tour. Our tour was led by Sam. She was super knowledge and gave an amazing tour! This lady needs a raise! Maeve Chocolates is a woman-owned business. I also believe about 75% of their employees are women. That is amazing! There is so much warmth and culture from this company. The tour was about 60 minutes long. It includes some education about cocoa beans, sourcing, and a factory tour. And of course there are a lot of taste testing done along the way! Manager Denise was also amazing. She and her staff had some amazing customer service. Thanks for a great experience!
This company and their chocolate are amazing! Who doesn't love to eat tasty treats, learn a bit, and support a good cause all at the same time? Well, that can happen here. Maeve Chocolate (Seattle Chocolate Company) ethically sources their cacao from farmers, and then turns around and donates a portion of their profits back to support those farmers. Amazing! We're not a milk chocolate household but the milk chocolate at Maeve is seriously so good. So chocolatey and creamy! The dark chocolate is the star though. It's fudgey and creamy and perfect. The flavors and branding artwork that are part of the Maeve brand are so fun and colorful! I wanted to buy them all. The Creme Brulee and coffee infused bars are my favorites. The other brand they make, jcoco, is higher-end Peruvian chocolate and has some truly interesting flavor combinations - like smoked sea salt, a white chocolate with orange and Cayenne, and quinoa sesame. The staff working there were welcoming, knowledgeable, and offered so many samples! We left fat and happy, and full of bonbons.
We visited the Seattle Chocolate factory tour (now as Maeve Chocolate). You need to reserve your spot online beforehand, and we joined the 2 p.m. tour on a Saturday. Since the factory machines don't run on weekends, we didn't get to see them in action. However, the tour was still very enjoyable. Highly recommend! The experience started in a tasting room where we learned about the entire chocolate-making journey, from sourcing cacao beans at the farm and fermentation to the final production steps. Our tour guide passed around byproducts from each stage, like cacao bean shells and cocoa butter, while explaining the process. We also watched an informative video with more visuals about the company's history. Next, we visited the factory floor, where our guide gave a detailed explanation of what goes on at each station. After the tour, we got to the best part: sampling the chocolate! We did a fun blind tasting where we guessed the ingredients before they revealed which product it was. We also got to sample some of their famous chocolates throughout the tour. Overall, I learned a lot and was very happy with how much chocolate we got to sample!
Maeve (Seattle Chocolate,) is my very favorite LOCAL chocolate brand to gift! I was in the area working and made a point to stop by to purchase some of my favorites with the new packaging. The chocolate is the SAME, the only thing that's new is the name, and packaging. The customer service at this location is very welcoming, I wish i would have had time to participate in a tasting. The next time I'm in the area I will definitely plan ahead. Seattle is filled with so many wonderful chocolatier's, I highly recommend adding Maeve (Seattle Chocolate,) to your list!
I finally made it to the factory! Now known as Maeve, they still had the same great creations, just a different name. Upon walking in, the guy was friendly, explaining some of the basics. I happily customized my own bag with truffles (now called bon bons) and also made a small boxed gift for someone else with 17 truffles (one of each kind). As for my own, I stuck with my favorite peanut butter and added in some other flavors I was curious about. Behind the glass window was where those who signed up for the tour were sitting and hopefully indulging in a lot of chocolate. I didn't get the chance to join one today but possibly next time I'm in town. Free parking out front was plentiful, and if you're there on Saturday, they supposedly heavily discount the former 'Seattle Chocolate' branded items that I wish were available all week, so you're going to get a great deal.

Amazing Chocolate tour experience. Jayden was spectacular and showed us around the factory. Seeing how chocolate was made and getting to see the history and process what spectacular. The store's ambiance was very inviting, much better than what it used to be. If you have time to kill and want to try yummy chocolate and learn then stop by and sign up! read more

Seattle Chocolate rebranded as Maeve Chocolate in located in a industrial area just outside of the Southcenter Mall. Denise was very welcoming, warm, personable and knowledgeable explaining the different chocolates to us. They do offer a tour, but unfortunately, we did not have enough time to take it. We sampled a few different chocolates. Denise recommended her favorite which was the Cafe Latte Crunch. So creamy and good! Come check them out! Support your local business. read more

If you're a chocolate lover, then this is a must stop on your Seattle travels. You can ask for as many chocolate samples as you desire. Plenty of parking and I love they have creative photo ops here, including their mascot, Greg Glitter, the, space-themed mascot. All their chocolate candies are rich, but my favorite is their cookies and cream chocolate. The customer service at Maeve was wonderful and the ambiance is simple, cool and collective read more

I stopped by here by chance. The parking lot is around the store. From the outside, it feels like you can't tell it's a chocolate store at all. But there was a Seattle chocolate sign at the entrance. There were quite a few people inside the store, and I found out later that there was the chocolate factory tour. I thought I'd like to join the tour next time. I looked around the store slowly, but it was hard to choose because there were various kinds of chocolate with very fun packaging and unusual combinations. After much hesitation, I first chose five flavors I wanted to try from Minibar Chocolate. And I got a package for five of those minibars. It's cute like a mini book. The woman at the store is bright and very energetic. And this is the flagshop store. read more

We had our very first factory tour today with guide John. He was very fun, informative and made our time very interactive as we enjoyed the abundance of chocolate. The factory was amazing, efficient and extremely well organized. We have been fans of Seattle Chocolates for years and we are glad we made it out for a visit. Thank you John and the rest of the staff for making a fun experience to go along with an awesome product!!!! I recommend the factory tour to anyone interested. read more

This experience was so much fun, who doesn't love some chocolate. Only crazy people in my opinion. Haha. While on vacation we visited this factory, we did the tour and learned some new things about chocolate and where it comes from. My family and I really enjoyed the tour, highly recommend, especially if you have the tour guide named Blaze. Blaze was great, energetic and fun!!! He made the tour; for sure. The store was small but very cutely decorated for Christmas. The displays of their chocolate were pleasing to the eye and they had some lovely options for gift purchasing. The chocolates were delightful and they had some unique flavors that I wasn't so sure about but they ended up being very good. If you are in the area, definitely check it out. Great learning experience for all ages. read more

My husband surprised me for my birthday by taking me here for three Seattle Chocolate tour and it was so much fun! We drove and they have a parking lot. We did the 10am on a Tuesday tour and it ended up being just us which was pretty cool! Our tour host was Caleb and he was soo nice! We really enjoyed our tour with him! The tour: Starts with some intro videos and a little chocolate tasting to start - some heated chocolate in a cup and some cocoa nibs. Both very tasty. Then we started the factory tour - which doesn't allow phones, glass, gum or personal belongings - they have lockers you can put everything in and they give hairnets. It was really cool to see the behind the scenes of everything being made. The final part was the tasting and also my favorite part! We got to try a nice variety of their different chocolates and all had a really diverse flavor! So much fun trying to guess the flavors and tasting notes. Afterwards, we went shopping in their store which has a ton of different chocolates! We bought some gifts for family and of course some chocolate for ourselves. Their store is super cute! Staff is friendly and welcoming and it's such a fun experience just to come and check out all of the different chocolate flavors available! 10/10 would come for their other events and to get more chocolate! I heard they do some fun Halloween things. They also have chocolate sales on the imperfect bars that aren't wrapped down distribution once in awhile! read more

As a Seattle native, I never knew Seattle Chocolates had a factory tour. The experience was pretty pleasant, they gave you a bit of a history lesson, but it was interactive throughout. Our tour guide was also very friendly and answered all our questions. I don't remember her name, but she was passionate about her job. I think that's why our tour was pretty good. If you like chocolates you will get to try out different kinds throughout the experience and learn about the differences between them. Pretty cool stuff! You also get a 10% discount at the end to use in the store after. read more

This is my fourth visit to this tour in the past 11 years, and it keeps getting more enjoyable each time, despite being the same tour. The tour guides truly make each experience unique with their amazing personalities. I have to highlight just how incredible the chocolate is! Yesterday, we had our first chance to visit the factory and see the chocolate-making process in action. We were lucky to witness it firsthand. The factory itself is beautiful and inviting, with the wonderful aroma of fresh chocolate adding to the experience. read more

My friend brought me along for a tour at the Seattle Chocolate Factory which took about 1 hour, and it was such an enjoyable experience. Our tour guide was Dani, and she was amazing! She had such a positive attitude and really made the tour fun to follow along. On the tour, you will learn about how the company started, how chocolate is made, and where they get their coacoa beans from. I learned so many things! We were then allowed to tour the factory where all of their chocolate is made. It was such a cool thing to see. I feel like people of all ages would enjoy. My favorite part was the blind tasting test without a question. I definitely felt like I grew a bigger appreciation to eating premium chocolate. I highly recommend this visiting! If you take the tour, you get 10% their products to purchase in the store. read more
