I was then told to "scoot up" so there would be "more parking," which would've put me past the sign, into a no-parking zone, and right at a turn--you know, breaking the law and increasing the chances of my car getting clipped. Before I could even finish explaining this, I was cut off with "Whatever dude, do whatever you want." Real welcoming. The dirty looks while she continued setting up sealed it. If this is the hospitality before opening, I can't imagine what it's like once they're busy. Hard pass.

We…read morewere just looking around but the friendly cashier offered us to try a sample of anything we were interested in, so I decided on the brown butter flavor. I'm so glad I tried it because I hadn't been planning to get anything but once I tasted it, it had me SOLD. I was so sad when I finished the bar even though I was savoring it like Charlie from the Chocolate Factory book BUT I'm buying a whole bunch for my family's stocking stuffers for Christmas (they each picked out their own flavor and I'll order them all together) and for my own Christmas presents, hehe. So excited to try more flavors but mainly, to have my favorite brown butter chocolate again! Really high quality chocolate, have never experienced such a rich and complex taste in chocolate that melts so beautifully in my mouth. Normally I'm a die hard dark chocolate fan but the brown butter milk chocolate is so rich that it gives dark chocolate vibes. PS Thanks to the sweet cashier for changing my chocolate life forever!!

It is perfectly chunky with a lot mix ins which is just how I like it. I have tried a few of their flavors but the main standout is the peanut butter cup and the coffee toffee. Their cookie dough is okay. Salt and straws and the ice cream place over on woodstocks is better. While there isn't anywhere to sit inside, there are picnic tables outside. The only downside here is that the inside could be designed better. It is awkward to walk in and wait in the line with little room to move so people hold the door and wait outside or crowd around the register. Overall best ice cream for the price in downtown Vancouver

The shop was clean and bright and when you first walk in you are surrounded with all the chocolate goodies on the shelves. The bar making experience is in the back but Tim the owner said they are expanding their Pearl location so in the future this experience will be over in their other location. Tim was funny and engaging and gave an amazing presentation about chocolate and their shop's history and future. I loved that they take pride in their sustainability and responsible sourcing and were so touched by their family stories. You can clearly feel the love and the passion for chocolate and the joy they bring with their tasty treats and experiences. The whole experience took about 2 hours (hairnets and all) but we really learned a lot and got to be creative with our toppings and took home our yummy treats (and bought extra chocolate from the shop). Please come support this wonderful local business and treat yourself to some world-class chocolate!
