    Handmade chocolates and truffles
    Ranjini S.

    The options in here are amazing! We almost missed going here but I remembered reading about it as one of the things to do in Oban so during our final few hours I dragged my friends over there. Chocolatey heaven! Expect to lose some time in there though if they're short staffed. Only one person was manning the chocolate counter when we were there and there was a line to build your own chocolate boxes. Worth the wait though.

    Freaking cute!

    Oban Chocolate Co is a charming shop filled with the most incredible items for you to indulge in. We didn't stay in the shop to eat or have a drink, as we had just left dinner and were a wee bit full but we did peruse around and bought some souvenirs for people back home. There are a lot of different types of chocolates and candies you can buy here. Some of the molded stuff is so cute. I wanted to get a fish and chips set but it was large and I could only have a cabin bag with me this trip. Shockingly enough, especially for a tourist spot, the pricing isn't bad here at all. Everything was reasonability priced and I appreciated that (makes me want to buy more.) There was kind of a long line because the coffee/chocolate drinks here smell amazing so I'm sure they must taste amazing. We were just buying some chocolate so the lovely person working behind the counter, wrapping chocolates, was able to check us out really quickly. So nice! If we were to have stayed, there was plenty of comfy looking seating, with great views of the harbor.

    A great chocolate shop and cafe. My mom and I spent several hours here one rainy afternoon a few days into our trips around Scotland. The cafe is cozy and inviting. We sat on one of the couches, where my mom reviewed the pictures she'd been taking and did some reading and I caught up on some journaling. While the WiFi was decently strong, we also had good mother-daughter conversations over tea, coffee, and hot chocolate (the chilli hot chocolate is smooth and spicy). The cafe looks out to the harbour, which isn't half bad either. We sort of overdid it with chocolates, which is easy with so many options: ordered a sampler plate and asked for a mix of dark and milk chocolates, which we absolutely couldn't eat all of. They gave us a bag to take the remainder away. The chocolates made a nice snack.

    RELAXING/ ROMANTIC AMBIANCE, DELICIOUS BEVERAGES/ FOOD & AMAZING COLLECTION OF CHOCOLATES! AMBIANCE: We passed by this romantic cute little store during our walk around the harbor and we had to try this. I was very impressed with their chip decor full of various quirky slogans and whole theme was to motivate people to talk to each other and just enjoy the bliss. The sitting area is very spacious and full of huge soft couches which make it very inviting and adding to the whole theme! The chocolate shop was full of various flavors and gift boxes making them perfect for souvenirs. SERVICE, FOOD AND DRINK: You have to order at the booth. The servers were very friendly and explain you various options they have. We ordered dark hot chocolate which was made to perfection and that choco Turtle taking a dip in the cocoa was amusing to watch. We ordered spice tea which was perfectly brewed and that was accompanied by Warm waffle platter with dark and milk chocolate,fresh fruit, cream and strawberry macrons! We also bougth three different chocolate bar combo as a souvenir. Everything came out perfect and we enjoyed every bit of our time at the cafe! I would highly recommend trying this place out!

    CHOCOLATE! £2 for a four chocolate taster of your choosing... OR £4.5 for 100g, or about 7-8 chocolates they say... My Asian Math Skills says it makes sense to buy two £2 tasters.

    Good coffee and cakes. Chocolate is home made and delicious. Must try! The waffles are great. Nice place on rainy day. Free Wifi is available

    Chocolate sampler that you get choose yourself!

    Do not miss this place while in Oban! We stopped in on a rainy afternoon and the place was full. We ordered a six piece chocolate sampler, which entails them taking you over to the candy counter and letting you pick your chocolates to try (brilliant!) We also ordered two dark chocolate mochas. The candy is where it's at! We loved the caramello, the caramel mint and milk chocolate ganache. We weren't as crazy about the whiskey and Irish cream filled ones, though that was just a preference - YMMV. After all that candy, the mocha was just too much. It was lovely but I was already chocolate wasted. The people near us had waffles, which looked great, and I also saw milkshakes, fondue and a selection of cakes on offer. Go here. It was so worth a three hour train trip from Glasgow.

    Best hot chocolate !

    Can you say you've had the best hot chocolate in all of Scotland ... well you can if you go to Oban Chocolate Co. SUPER cute place, lovely large sofas to lounge on and some cute bar stools and high tables spread around a rather large space. There is a lot of seating, but there are also a lot of people who want to taste the BEST hot chocolate in the world =) They have a full cafe with coffee and teas in addition to their wonderful hot coco's, which are made from real melted chocolate! You can get 60% or 80% dark chocolate. Plus they have an amazing ( I'm using that word a lot but that's because they are AMAZING) chocolate truffles! They have loads of different kinds of truffles and literally they are melt in your month delicious! I haven't tried their other yummies, they have cakes and waffles and locally made ice cream! They looked delicious, but as much as I love chocolate, I can only consume so much in one sitting =) O and they CAN do their hot chocolates with soy milk! Which I love since most places had some kind of milk already mixed in with their chocolate... the benefits of melting real chocolate into the drink!

    nutella and strawberry waffle...aka LOVE

    I absolutely adore this place! Love the waffles, chocolates, hot chocolate and especially the view! Great place to stop for a sweet tooth fix and nice gifts. You can also watch as the chocolates are made freshly in the back through a viewing window!

    Kimbles is a family business that has been in the St Enoch Centre since 2002. They sell pre-boxed…read morechocolates and single chocolates that can be boxed to your specifications. A couple of years ago, their shop expanded to include a little café, where you can enjoy their chocolates with a hot drink. My favourite combination has to be tablet and a tea with no sugar, so you can get the contrast in the two. I bought a box of the chocolates for Maw once and she said they were fantastic, although they're the kind of ones you can only eat 2 or 3 of at a time. For it being such a small, quality business, prices actually aren't that bad.

    I am a romantic man…read more Being Finnish, my missus has a sweet tooth to rival any Scot, whilst managing not to be obese. It's a mystery. Anyhow, I recall her excitement at finding this place a while back but never having been in. I took it upon myself to do all the work and pick her up some chocolates for a mini-celebration. They might have been better than the ones I have just worked through from Marks and Spencers I got from Christmas, and were certainly better than Thorntons. Everything in Thorntons sort of tastes the same, in the same way everything in McDonalds also tastes the same. The staff were friendly and chatty and more or less done the work on my behalf to be fair with regards to buying the chocolates, all I done was actually pay for them. Didn't pay as much as I was prepared to either so I treated myself to a cup of coffee, which was also above average. I am a romantic man. Who knows how to treat himself as well.

My favourite has to be the Viennese Truffles, oh my goodness, they are to die for! I could eat a whole bag to myself and then still want more! I also like Alpini Bars, Chocolate Smothered Toffee, Special Toffee, Strawberry Whirl, Toffee Cubes... I could go on forever! This branch of Thorntons is one of the smaller branches but they still manage to get everything in, they also have an ice-cream section in summer and a chocolate fountain all year round, where you choose from sticks of fudge, fruit or marshmallows. I also love the kids chocolate section, you can buy little chocolate lollies which are usually on offer at 5 for £2. There are little boxes with packets of sweets and chocolate in them with stickers too. It's also great for presents, I once bought a chocolate gorilla for my brother with his name written on in it with icing, pretty fitting I thought. It's also worth noting that Thorntons stock a wide range of diabetic chocolate which is great as many places don't stock this. My first ever job was in a branch of Thorntons when I was around 16, I was just a Christmas Temp for a month or so but it was seriously the best job ever! You got 25% discount off everything, plus free tasting on your break and if that wasn't enough there was also a box of broken chocolate that you could eat as much as you wanted!

    Do you love chocolate? I love chocolate. And to pirate the M&S phrase, this is no ordinary…read morechocolate, this is Thorntons extra luxurious, decadent chocolate. The chocolatier is a profession and he is forever making sweet sweet art at Thorntons. Although this store is quite small its convenient to stop when passing by and what sounds more comforting that the 'chocolate bar'. Yum and double yum. If you are lucky, sometimes the chocolatiers assistants are out on the street offering samples. I have tried and tested quite few of the chocolates here, and can say my all time favourite is the Vanilla fudge. Thorntons Sauchiehall St is a great place to be, its right in the heart of the shopping district and acts as a stool to rest those tired feet and put down those heavy bags before you set off again with the power of a chocolate full tummy to lead you on.
