    a single chocolate wrapped in foil
    Paula E.

    Thompson Chocolate is tucked away on a side street in Meriden. They sell and manufacture chocolate. The store has a wide variety of chocolates that include sugar-free, as well! The boxes are well-labeled, and the prices are reasonable. I went in on Feb. 22, and they were already stocked with St. Patrick's Day and Easter candy. I bought sugar-free dark chocolate cherry cordials for myself, and a second box for a welcome gift. The staff was very friendly. I recommend coming here if you want/need to buy chocolate for a gift, or for yourself!

    I always stop here when im in the mood for chocolate. Nothing beats a hometown homemade batch of chocolate. They have regular and seasonal chocolates here that are made on-site. Good prices and the employees friendly. It's small inside , but filled with plenty of treats to pick from..

    OMG the dark chocolate break-apart bar with almonds is amazing! I have never had such fresh crisp almonds in a candy bar!

When you walk in, it's really a nice break from reality with all of the whimsical, antique, speakeasy feel. You can sip on tea and coffee and walk around the shop. Nice size biscotti went well with their tea. I had the blueberry muffin also. My friend and I had two cups of tea that were great! Staff is super nice and we could have spent more than 2 hrs in there just relaxing and catching up. I look forward to going back there. It's a nice intimate space to sit alone or a couple of friends.

I got Aset, the Egyptian goddess of healing, magic, funereal rites, and motherhood. ASET (EGYPTIAN) color-changing twist on a corpse reviver butterfly pea flower infused prairie gin, luxardo triple sec, elderflower liqueur, lemon, glitter MICTLANTECUTLI (AZTEC) blood orange margarita, rocks blood orange tequila, blood orange liqueur, lime, orange bitters, smoked salt We also Mediterranean: Hummus, Olives Herb, Chips Everything was very good and I would definitely come back during the day to check out their tea shop

The space inside can feel a bit tight so I suggest going when it's not a busy time of day unless you don't mind cozying up with a friendly stranger while you peruse. The price range of their items spans from single, double and triple digits for example a satin strand bracelet with a small charm may cost approximately $18 and a super soft shacket $150. There is parking both in the front and in the back of the building. This is a great place to find a special someone a special something. Check it out! It's fun even if you're just window shopping.

    Had an amazing time at Eventful Splat and Craft Studio. We booked online for $10 to reserve a spot…read more They are only open from Friday to Sunday. They will put that $10 deposit to the art you created. There is a fair amount of parking when you arrive. There is also a bunch of other store near by the place. Walking in you are warmly greeted by the employee there. It was resin Sunday and Wendy was helping us with our art. They show us all the art pieces you can make and trust me it was a hard decision to pick one. I end up making a tray and my partner decided to go a faux stain glass. Once we picked the art piece we wanted to do. They sat us down and instructed us what to do. I painted a bit then place dry flowers on my tray. When then get to pour the resin on our art pieces. The employees were patience and encouraging with everyone. The resin does takes about 24 hours to harden. They provide to option to leave it there and pick it up next open business day. Which is great, as I was nervous put it in my car for the ride back home. I would come back to do more art. They have options to paint, a room to splat paint and more. Perfect for all ages just to have fun and make art.

    If you're looking for the perfect activity to do, this is the place to go! They offer so many…read morecrafts you don't typically find at every art store. From Resin projects to jewelry, sea glass, paint splatter room, they're endless options to choose from to get your creativity on! My mom and I came on a Sunday - I did a resin project of the grinch (or where ever your imagination takes you!) holding an ornament and I filled it in very precisely. my mom did a sea glass portrait where she designed a beautiful christmas tree! And the owner, Laura, is such an incredible artist and individual. she is there to let your creativity flow while helping out and assisting to get your art piece picture perfect. she's informative, helpful, and the best of the best!
