Big selection of chocolates, bars, truffles. Many of which are 'Steinhouse' also the name of the shop. A variety that included dark, almond, chiptople, spicy honeycomb, raspberry and dark truffles that melt in your mouth. The owner was super friendly and kept giving us samples to try. The shop had old American signage, Route 66 kinda style. Give it a try next time you are n downtown Santa Rosa and support this small business! read more

I don't come downtown often maybe 3 times a year. Today needed to grab something at the mall and decided to take a walk. Ended up here at Steinhouse. Was quickly by the owner who gave samples of chocolate to my boys and let me try some of the veteran owned hot sauce. Everything was great and the owner is super nice. Definitely worth stopping by if you are downtown read more

Seriously check this place out. It's like an old European chocolate store (at least from what I've seen on tv) and so much more. You can tell this store is the owners passion. He has many delicious samples, some even dairy free and vegan! all kinds of chocolate from all over the world, fun gifts like authentic German beer steins and old posters and decor. It's really fun store store and I recommend every one checking it out snd trying some delicious chocolate read more

The chocolate selection is awesome, but what keeps me returning is the charismatic owner who lets you try everything! I have always found some fantastic gifts and treats for myself here that range from dark chocolates, to pistachio creams to chocolate syrups and chocolate balsamic vinegar! It's really worth the stop. read more

Honestly walking in, it was a bit of a shock for me, but overwhelming in a curious way..... I wasn't too sure what this store was selling, but I wanted to find out! The was an outgoing older gentleman that could perfectly say each chocolate with the proper accents in which the chocolates derived from. There was a a FREE chocolate sampling and great history regarding the origins of the chocolate, as well as pairings! I wish we had more time to try everything, but sadly our car was on a parking meter and it was on the other side of town. So I quickly brought a couple bars for my Dad, since he loves dark chocolate and big-heavy cabs! Hee I'll definitely be back for more! read more

Steinhouse - Great with butter/oil for pasta or bread - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Santa Rosa, California

Walked in on a whim after glancing at the name while walking by. The owner was quick to help with showing me around the shop giving out plenty of free samples and explaining what each item was and had some recommendations based on personal preferences. They have steinhouse brand items and a number of imports. Chocolates, sauces, vinegar, mustard and some stuff I probably missed. Prices vary a bit in range but nothing outrageous. Great gift ideas or just your personal chocolate fix. Definitely going back. read more

Classic Steinhouse W: Went to Steinhouse for some Christmas shopping with a friend and they gave us like 6 different chocolate samples, a pistachio paste sample, and a barbecue sauce sample of all things. Incredible customer service. They're really attentive while you're shopping, too, telling me the history of items, and continued giving me samples as I was checking things out. Practically rolled out of there when I was through, I had so much chocolate in just samples alone haha. I bought some high quality chocolate that I know the people I bought it for will love. Really cool place. read more

Wow, this place is a gem! Eric is a wonderful host and owner of this small business and gave us delicious samples of chocolate, chocolate barbecue sauce, and balsamic vinegars! Everything was so wonderful. He had some Dubai chocolate too if you're looking! Will definitely be back soon. read more

Steinhouse - Chocolate bbq sauce - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Santa Rosa, California

Calling this place charming feels too... weak. It's like American Pickers opened a chocolate store as a side hustle and found the most engaging shop owner one could find. Saw on the website Eric's nickname is "Muscles from Brussels" which is just the cherry on top. Everything inside is for sale! Lots of vintage license plates, steins, Harley Davidson items, Coca Cola memorabilia, and other super cool items. As for chocolate, the selection is sure to please. Organic chocolate, vegan chocolate, biscoff cookie chocolate, Côte d'Or chocolate in various flavors, tequila brittle, Chardonnay brittle, truffles labeled with what wine they pair best with, fudge sauce, and more that I've already forgotten. I had a few samples and I also bought a few bars. Basically, if you're craving chocolate, need a gift, or enjoy having authentic experiences and want to support local - go to Steinhouse Chocolates. Bodacious, that's the better word for this place. read more

Went to a shop down the hall do dye my hair, came back and and tried some of the chocolate and holy crap its amazing. The decorations were amazing, the older gentleman in there (pretty sure he's German, me too) was amazing and super nice will be going back soon. read more

I have loved Cote d'Ore chocolate since a trip to Belgium and was happy to find it here. And not just one type but over a dozen different bars. The owner used to have a chocolate shop in Mendocino and opened here in around 2022. It's now my go-to-place for chocolate even though it's a 20 min drive for me. I should have taken photos as that would give you a better POV on the variety and "fun ness" about the place. The owner is generous and will let you sample a couple pieces to help you find the right chocolate for you. Me? Left with numerous bars to share with friends and family for the holidays. read more

Eric, the muscles from Brussels, the owner, was so lively and passionate for his chocolates, his business but most of all his roots. He shared so much of his chocolate, popcorn, licorice it was tough to walk out without a little bit of heaven. His shop has vintage signs, steins from all over and so many other pieces of memorabilia that it's fun walking through. Fun vibe to visit. read more

My husband and i went there again for the third time with friends today. I spoke French with the Belgian owner, and that wonderful chocolate was reminiscent of the great chocolates i grew up with in Europe as a child. Owner is very knowledgeable. If you visit Santa Rosa, his shop is a must-see! Chocolate is a must-eat! read more

Steinhouse - Steinhouse - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Santa Rosa, California

Be prepared to meet the store owner who is so lively and generous with sharing his favorite chocolates with customers. With that, it is a certainty that you will walk out with something delicious. They have a wonderful assortment of Belgian chocolates and local products that are packaged for Steinhouse. For example, the truffles are by Annie's, a Napa-based chocolate maker. Steinhouse also carries Killian Honey. It's the perfect place to buy delicious holiday gifts (for yourself and others). I'm from the peninsula, so when I visit Santa Rosa, Steinhouse is always on my list of places to visit. I'm never disappointed by the service and products, and always leave with a new favorite treat. read more

What a charming little shop. We have family in town and while walking 4th street, we decided to go in. Well let me tell you, the owner of the shop is one of the most charming and entertaining individuals I have ever met. He is full of stories and loves doing tastings of the various sweets and mustards they sell. Needless to say we all walked out of there with our wallets a tad lighter. This will definitely be a regular stop for us. read more

OMG! What a great little shop. I walked in with my mom on a walk and we were inundated, in the best possible way, with the most interesting things I've tasted in a long time. Besides the chocolates, they also carry vinegars, honey, maple syrups and so many things I had to leave before I bought one of everything. I did end up with a chocolate balsamic vinegar, which will be amazing on vanilla ice cream - or a spoon. I also tried their honey and maple syrups and got the hot and spicy version. This will be good on pancakes, apple pie - and also just on a spoon. I will definitely be back. I can't stop thinking about some of the other things I tried. Highly recommend. read more

Eric is such a funny guy and each sample is something delicious you've never had before but want more of immediately! We've found so many delicious treats here because he imports so many different chocolates. Great place to get gifts people will actually enjoy! read more
