Inside of the booth at Bryant Park
Laura R.

I had seen a lot of recommendations to check out no chewing allowed, as people were saying time and time again they have the best hot chocolate, and I have to agree!! The truffles are great too! My favorite is the pistachio, followed by the raspberry! This will help you practice self control, as the main rule with the truffles is NO CHEWING ALLOWED!

So many delicious flavors you have to try

The name is terrible... I just have to say that, and I thought that from the second, I walked in to the little kiosk in Bryant Park . However ... that being said... The chocolate is delicious. It does melt in your mouth. You do have to hold it and not chew. There is so much delicious chocolate flavor. They're expensive but I don't care I bought 30 of them

We stopped by the No Chewing Allowed popup store in Bryant park! It was such a cute store and the truffles definitely didn't need to be chewed! They melted right in your mouth! I'd suggest stopping but this location as this can be a great location for gifts or to sample for different sweet treats! The employees were very responsive!

They used to have several locations in the city but only see them now in Holiday Market in Bryant Park (maybe one other location) other than ordering online. Good variety and makes good gift. Not cheap but they are good truffles by those who have tried and I have bought enough as gifts - the original, the variety box and some of the new flavors. Everyone enjoyed them all. Even though it gets crowded, the check out lines goes fast. Check it out during the holiday season as it comes around fast! Curious to see what new flavors are in store for this year.

don't you allowed, what a wonderful name

The lines are low to buy some hot chocolate, but there's a reason. It's a 10 out of 10. Great stop Bryant Park. Beautiful set up during holidays

The holiday market is a zoo to say the least. About a 15 minute wait in line. There is a dedicated hot chocolate line, it moves fast though. One size for $8 It's small but so decadent, my boyfriend and I could've shared. I really enjoyed it, and think it's completely worth it. My boyfriend thought it was just ok It's not the run of the mill Swiss miss or regular powdery hot chocolate. It's very chocolaty, thick and smooth.

I mean as far as hot chocolate goes... this is fantastic!! It tastes like what I feel like sticking my head under a chocolate fountain would be like. I was originally apprehensive because the cup was smaller, but it was the perfect amount. It was so good I went back and bought the materials to make it myself. Definitely go!! Also, in Bryant Park, the line goes quicker than it seems.

Instagramers say..Best Hot Chocolate around!

When the locals direct you to places you go, and this was on top of New York to try list. I stood in a long line, but it went pretty fast. The line is for a cup of hot chocolate, one Suze one flavor only, which was very rich and perfectly sized for drinking on a chilly NY evening. I found out later that the store part sells truffles (which are in the hot chocolate). Definitely see why people say it's a tradition to go here and have no chewing allowed's, hot chocolate every year

I read online that among the dozens of hot chocolate purveyors at Bryan Park's Winter Village, No Chewing Allowed is considered to be the best. Curious to try it for myself, I waited in a long line (it seemed like everyone else had read the same blog post). When I got to the front of the line, I saw what the commotion was about - each cup includes an entire chocolate truffle submerged in molten milk chocolate. A small cup (approximately 8 oz.) cost around $7. The consistency reminded me of European sipping chocolate, but the flavor was sweeter and milder (AKA more "kid friendly"). My brother, who usually isn't a fan of hot chocolate, proclaimed it was the "best hot chocolate he had ever tasted." While I prefer my hot chocolate more on the bittersweet side, I can see why No Chewing Allowed's hot chocolate has become a fan favorite and synonymous with the holiday season.

The line November 30th 2023

I died and went to flavor heaven. The hot chocolate is made with a whole added truffle to the hot Coca. I gladly burnt the top of my mouth multiple times in order to taste it over and over. I wished I had a spoon or stick to stir up the gooey chocolate on the bottom before I emptied the cup. Well worth the $7 I also bought some truffles individually wrapped to go. The PISTACHIO has real flavor that I could actually taste, probably the first time that I could taste a flavor so prominent that I could tell you what it was blindfolded. The other flavors are great too, wasn't brave enough to get the popcorn one. Definitely will order these truffles whenever I need a chocolate fix.

Visited No Chewing Allowed at Christmas Village. There was a long line for hot chocolate but it was worth it! The hot chocolate was super rich. It was a little sweeter than I prefer but you could really taste the quality of the chocolate. Before pouring the hot chocolate in your cup they drop one of their truffles to further intensify the chocolatey flavor. Perfect for a chilly winter night! Speaking of the truffles...they pretty much melt in your mouth. They hand out free samples inside and tell you "no chewing allowed". They are rich without being overly sweet and the texture is unlike your normal truffles with a hard outer shell. I brought home a variety of flavors to try and I would say the pistachio was my favorite.

If you want to find the best hot chocolate, this is the place. Every year I try to attend the Bryant park holiday markets and this is always my favorite spot. Turns out everyone else knows too now! The line was out and around the shop this year! I'm glad everyone is starting to know about them! The chocolate itself really does melt in your mouth. My favorites have to be the original and pistachio. I always buy a bunch to give out to friends and have at home. There is not one person I know that doesn't enjoy it as much as I do!

I love Lindt chocolate so I was very happy with this concept. There was a bunch of flavors laid out…read morethroughout the store and I was able to mix and match what Lindt chocolates I wanted as well as how much I wanted! My fiancé and I had a lot of fun looking at all of the choices they had. There were some regular flavors like Milk Chocolate, White Chocolate but there were also some fun flavors like Pumpkin Spice, Milk Chocolate Sea Salt. On top of all of this, there is an option of prepackaged Lindt chocolates as well as different chocolate barks by the entrance. Definitely a fun thing to do with your friends as well!

This is the new flagship location of Chocoladefabriken Lindt & Sprüngli AG, which is better known…read moreas Lindt. They're also across the street from a flagship Ghirardelli store, which they also own, if you aren't aware. In general, I find Lindt too sweet, but that is also coming from someone who is a dark chocolate lover. For this location specifically, the staff here are friendly and give samples, which is a plus. Anyway, if you're wondering why you'd want to stop here instead of just going to the literal CVS around the corner which sells their products, you can customize stuff better here, and there are many more options. Along with the standard truffles they are famous for, there are flavors available only at this location, as well as seasonal ones. Some current ones include shortbread, made with milk chocolate, as well as a snickerdoodle, which I didn't realize was made with white chocolate, or else I wouldn't have purchased that one (it was still tasty,) and others. The truffles are around 62¢ post-tax for a single one, so it's a little cheap and tasty treat. Outside of truffles, there are bars, some fancier chocolates, and bark, among many other things. Of course, there's a Dubai option like every other chocolatier in case you want to purchase a cheapo version here. Obviously, the chocolates in general are not as high-quality as Läderach, Li-Lac, and other spots, but they are at very different price points, so that's to be expected. The latter spots are more artisanal, while this is a step up from Hershey's "chalk-olate" and other cheaper brands. If you're looking to buy a gift without paying an exorbitant price but still want a step up from Hershey's or similar places, I would recommend going here.

This was the first brewery/beer bar that popped up when I looked up ones near my hotel planning…read morethis trip. The great reviews and overall rating along with the fact they had an emphasis on sour beers (my wife's favorite style of beer) made it a no brainer. Also as you have likely seen they are a women-owned operation so another positive. We did mistakingly walk by it at first but quickly found it. It's a beautifully designed space and more unique than your typical brewery space. Also speaking of they have lots of drinks other than beers, including wines, ciders, cocktails, coffee and a couple NA beers. Due to the impending storm they were closing early but my wife and I each got a beer. I got their New England IPA called Sun Up which was citrusy and juicy with a touch of bitterness/hoppy notes. Then my wife got their fruited sour Peach Berry Punch that definitely had a punch of pink guava and peach but the berry was more subtle. Two great beers with plenty of other styles available too. Service was friendly with a smile and took no time to get our beers. Such a positive experience we plan on returning to give their cocktails a try! An absolute must visit for beer lovers who find themselves near Bryant Park! (Also non-beer lovers since they offer so much more too.)

Cool spot. Really chill especially in the early afternoon. It started getting busy around 330/400PM…read more(Saturday). The bartender was really chill but once it started getting busy it seemed like the support staff was short, if not rude. All good, overall but just sorta hit weird. Although, that bartender is so sweet and I'd wanna come back.

Convenient location situated in the newly renovated Moynihan Train Hall. First thing I ever tried…read morehere was the "Amanda's Case", which is 40 pieces of dark and milk chocolate almonds. It didn't wow me. Tasted pretty much like your standard chocolate almonds. I recently decided to give this place another shot to try their highly-raved macarons and OMG... didn't expect a macaron to change my life. The chocolate ganache is heavenly. My favorite might be the "Sylvia", which is milk chocolate ganache + hints of caramel. The worker behind the counter was kind and helpful. I purchased two macaron sets, informing her that one was a present. She graciously offered me an extra gift bag.

How have I never written a review of this remarkable chocolate shop?!…read more La Maison du Chocolat is my all-time favorite chocolate. I am a devotee of dark chocolate, and have tried every dark offering it has. Each is superb, even flavor combinations I haven't historically adored (like orange and chocolate - I know it's popular, but it's just not my favorite). That said, my personal favorite is the Anastasia, a hazelnut and dark praline enrobed in dark chocolate. It is exquisite. Service is always excellent. I've ordered in person and over the phone, and have always been so pleased with the staff. The website is helpful when ordering a variety, but if you'd like an entire box of Anastasia, for example, you have to call the Rockefeller Center store and place the order by phone. They ship once a week, and I always have my box fairly quickly. Boxes make terrific gifts ... including for yourself. If you're walking in, I recommend sitting down to enjoy a few pieces of chocolate, then taking the rest in a box with you. There is a cozy but comfortable seating area in the back just for this. This area is also an ideal place to enjoy some of their drinking chocolate. Highly, highly recommend.
