    I am really glad to find a chocolate shop in Pella! Amazing chocolates and caramels! Everything is done by the Matt shop owner's wife. Matt was super friendly and very helpful!! His wife is the one who makes almost all of the chocolates in the store, they have a small display which is made in Chicago by friends of their family and include chocolate covered espresso beans and chocolate covered fruit. The chocolates are beautiful and delicious! This will be a definite place to visit again!!!

    Cute, quaint shop. Love the little Dutch shoe-shaped chocolates as stocking stuffers at Christmas. So good!

    My fiance and I booked the 'Weekend Getaway Package' (the one night option) as our Valentine's Day…read moregetaway. We were more than pleased with our stay! We set out to have a quaint, one day escape to check-out the Pella town square. The hotel has a wonderful location that walks out to great shops and modern eateries. Having worked in the hospitality industry for more than ten years, my number one expectation is good service. The Royal Amsterdam went over and beyond! Our check-in was personable, smooth and left us with no questions. Lucia checked us in and made us feel right at home. Our package included wine, chocolates, flowers, movie tickets and a gift certificate to the restaurant. The wine, chocolates, and flowers were waiting for us in the room and the rest was waiting for us at the front desk when we were ready to use them. The sparkling wine was delicious and the chocolates were local, which I loved! Our room was clean and quiet. The rooms aren't the most modern, but that's the feel of the whole hotel: historical charm. We had a microwave and mini-fridge, as well as a Jacuzzi tub and a large shower, as well as access to underground (heated) parking. We ate in the restaurant for dinner. It was more casual than we expected, but the food was home-style and delicious! We ordered the mussels for an appetizer. They were a little small in size, but tasted great. We both ordered steak and it was done perfectly. The side dishes were amazing (even after being reheated later the next day). They don't have a wine list, but do offer several varietals by the glass. Overall, I am extremely pleased with the Royal Amsterdam. We were looking for a quaint, historical setting where we could easily explore the area and have a relaxing weekend and found all of that here. The staff was incredible and accommodating in every way. One of the front desk ladies even went out of her way to find us some ibuprofen despite the fact that there wasn't actually a pantry! I give two thumbs up!

    This is my wife's favorite bakery, so for her special day celebrating with her Dad (I'll be…read morecelebrating her birthday until the end of March, it's a magical year), I got cupcakes and a chocolate chip cookie cake for the party. Here's the incredible cupcakes I got: White Wedding Cake. Maybe that sounds boring, but this is a classic cake packing amazing flavor. A cross between white cake & angel food cake with a hint of almond- simple and delicious the menu said. The cake is moist, so soft and silky with that excellent almond wedding cake flavor that just amazes your taste buds. Incredibly delightful and delicate. Ultimate Strawberry. Ultimate Strawberry my as$! This should be named Ultimate Crack cupcake. It's not your ordinary strawberry cupcake. Made with crushed strawberries, combined with strawberry buttercream, the cupcake melts in your mouth. However, it doesn't mention how addictive the flavor is. Such an amazing strawberry cake! The sleeper, chocolate chip cookie dough with chocolate cake. Filled with cream and cookie bites in the center and topped with vanilla buttercream more cookie dough bites and mini chocolate chips. I always worry chocolate will be dry, not this cake. I know somebody will say that I am comparing, however I am not, I am just describing. The flavor reminded me of a hostess cupcake with the cream center on steroids. So much more flavor, the chocolate, cream, and then the cookie dough bites. Wow, just incredible. Moist cake with that cream center is just a comfort food classic that just brings you back to being a kid. Man I love cupcakes and this one just made me smile like the strawberry. I wasn't expecting that to be so incredible intense. Wow, I am just on a sugar rush. You could just taste all the incredible love baked into the cupcakes. They all made my tastebuds dance with the incredible flavors and how moist and fresh all the cake was. So soft and decadent. The chocolate chip cookie cake is that old school birthday giant cookie that is classic. So good with the light vanilla buttercream. I ordered a couple weeks ahead and it was a breeze. Everything was ready when I picked it up. The owner was incredibly nice and friendly. I would absolutely order again.

    Such good food!!! Loved the staff!!!! Cupcakes are sooooooo good!!! Definitely recommend this if…read moreyou can't think of what to eat
