Attended the once-again-available chocolate workshop with my wife. It was awesome. I highly recommend it for anyone wanting to spend a fun day out while tasting and learning about various chocolates. It was really fun, and worth the (18 month COVID imposed) wait.

The brownie lacked chocolate flavor, not worth finishing. I have baked a lot of chocolate desserts and know good cocoa. I dont appreciate when people try to spin my comments. Thanks for the offer of a refund, though.

I love the chocolates from here. For reference you get 6 chocolates for $20. However they are confectionary and they have an amazing assortment of chocolates such as coffee caramel. They also did a great job of explaining the various options and also have cute packaging if you want to gift a box to someone.

This was the best hot chocolate I’ve ever had. Even the dark one. I wish there was powder that was available through shipping since I live out of state. Amazing!

Every time I go here the service is incredible. They are always patient and communicative. The shop pays special attention to melting and quality. Ive been to over a dozen chocolate shops in the area and this one is by far the most impressive. The hot chocolate is divine and nothing can match its quality. I especially like how they offer non dairy options for my loved ones. Over the phone they are just as patient and thoroughly communicative as in store. This shop is a prime example of excellent quality and service.

Visited with husband to pick up some nice chocolate as a treat. Nice is probably an understatement, but at over $3 a piece they better darn well be nice! Exorbitant pricing, but maybe youll think its worth it? I personally have come to love their dark chocolate the most, which says something about their quality and craft.Husband did a chocolate-making class through work and liked it. He got to bring home free samples.The staff were friendly, but it was weird when they insisted we couldnt buy the dark cocoa powder piece (named Xxx) because it wouldnt last and isnt suitable for a box. Isnt it weird that its for sale then? What about if we wanted to eat it that night?? They were weirdly insistent.There are a few seats inside. They also serve alcohol. A cute place for a date!

Their chocolates are simply delicious, especially considering the price ($3/piece). But what keeps me coming back are their sipping chocolates! I recommend a milk or dark chocolate, iced with hazelnut milk!

These are by far the best chocolates Ive ever had! The shop is adorable. The owners are the nicest people. Amazing service every time Im there. This is my go to shop when Im craving something sweet and delicious. :)

A lot of subtle flavors in their chocolates, it really is amazing. When chocolate is made with this much care its really art. Great shop, definitely worth visiting. The owners are so nice too, letting you sample flavors you’re interested in.

The chocolates here are sooo good and very pretty, and the staff also seems very nice and polite. Im looking forward to the next time I can visit this chocolate shop. :)

The only thing better than the impeccable quality of their chocolates is their amazing service! Love this place

I have always loved the hot cocoa here, the best in town. Must try! I love that they have the chocolate available in various concentrations with 3 choices of milk - whole, almond and hazelnut. I consider myself a dark chocolate fan and my go-to option is a hot chocolate between 58 and 65% with whole milk. Note: 2 free chocolate bonbons for first timers! How great is that! Do you also wanna hear a hack? If you cant finish your chocolate drink, just stick it in the refrigerator for some time and you have got yourself some delicious chocolate mousse! Youre welcome! ;)

Loved the decor! We went for the hot chocolate which was really good but a bit sweet for my liking. Ill order a darker chocolate next time. The service was excellent!

Loved the chocolate making class. It was informative and fun.

If you are ever having a bad day, this is the place you should go to! They have the yummiest hot chocolate in all of SF - my fav chocolate place in town!! ☕️🍫

My husband and I come literally every week - the best hot chocolate around. Absolutely wonderfully nice staff, and super cute decor. Always an inviting environment to be in.

This is a boutique chocolate and comfort food spot in downtown Palo Alto. You get a range of artisanal solid and hot chocolates. The environment is also unique and colorful. The staff are helpful and knowledgeable about chocolate. Enjoy a cup of hot tea and a few pieces of exotic chocolates on an afternoon or as dessert after dinner.

Great gourmet chocolates with a wide variety. My wife loves their dark chocolates. Very friendly and helpful owner as well. Its my go-to place for special occasions.

Superb Chocklate and chocklate milk in palo. alto street

Its a wonderful place to go and have different kinds of hot chocolates. I just loved the decor and the color combination they chose. They use chocolate which ranges from 5% milk chocolate to 99% dark chocolate. You also get different kinds of chocolates. Nice and cosy place.

DELICIOUS sipping chocolate and excellent service. Such cute Halloween truffles!!

Delicious hot chocolate!❤️

Fancy chocolate shop. Their hot chocolates are really a treat, lots of choices and marshmallows.

Amazing hot chocolates!

Love the owners. They could be snooty because the chocolates are that good but they aren’t so the chocolates are even better.

Goegeous chocolates. Fantastic quality. Beautiful interior seating available. If you love high quality, handmade treats (like I do), then this is you place! The cherry marzipan is my absolute favorite, but I havent tasted a bad one yet! Delicious.

A little pricy, but totally worth it. The quality is good, and it’s very cute. The guys working there are super nice and funny too :)

The most amazing chocolates and customer service! I havent had hot chocolate in 10years since I went dairy free and they were able to get me dairy free delicious hot chocolate! Soo good!

Fresh, delicious, handmade in the store chocolates. Tasteful ambiance and warm, lovely owners that make you look forward to each visit.

Excellent hot chocolate.

Great selection of chocolates, sipping chocolates, and wine! Very knowledgeable and helpful staff. Cute decor.

Amazing chocolate in charming friendly atmosphere...we always stop there for dessert and champagne after dinner

Tried their 31% white hot chocolate, coz I am big fan of white chocolate. Simply Amazing!! You actually taste the white chocolate! Not like Starbucks or other places, where white chocolate just means sweet milk. Will try the 32% next time.Update : This is the best hot chocolate ever! Both 31% white and 32% milk chocolate are awesome!!

One of my favorite chocolate places. I often ordered 5-7 bon bons to keep me inspired for my drive from the South to the North Bay. I would munch the Bons Bons and turn up the Jon Bon. Now I am in Bulgaria missing these chocolates. My wife and I will surely visit when we return. I also suggest their class which I have taken with friends.

Friendly people, exquisite chocolate!!! You wont be disappointed! 😁

What a great little shop, the chocolate is incredible and the service was outstanding. I am a big fan of marzipan and they knocked it out of the park!

I attended a chocolate making workshop at Timothy Adams Chocolates. Everyone was very friendly, and we very quickly got to the enjoyably messy practice of making chocolates. It also included a little tour of different types of chocolate, from 100% straight chocolate, through a total of 8 different levels ending with a delicious white chocolate. The, I believe it was caramelized or something similar, white chocolate. Timothy was high energy, and extremely nice. As they rotated smaller groups through the crafting, the rest of us had a delicious buffet including small sandwiches, a cheese platter, and well seasoned veggies. Did I mention there was also wine? If those sound good to you, give it a try. You wont regret it.

Love their sipping hot chocolate

I just moved to Palo Alto for work and was looking for a place with a good hot cocoa! Well, I finally found it! Its not only super cute for pictures, it also has great customer service/very welcoming! I was walking with my pup and my husband when we decided to stop by, I stayed outside in the seated area and the staff invited me in with my pup! Super welcoming not to mention their chocolate is what a hot chocolate should taste like! They also have plenty of variety in which types of chocolates you can eat and which types of chocolates can be used in your hot chocolate. You have nothing to loose in this place! We Loved it, forever my new chocolate place!

Delicious rich chocolate. Its so sweet and decadent that I have to eat small bites of it at a time. Chocolate making workshop was fun. The owner, Tim, was very friendly.

Excellent hot chocolate and bonbons. We like the 65%-cocoa hot chocolate the best. 85% is also quite good if you want something darker.

Visitor to the SF area. The cashier was very nice and helpful. The 32% Ivory Hot Chocolate was amazing! Would highly recommend to anyone with a late night chocolate craving.

We had a group of 15 women do a chocolate class here. Timothy ran the class and it was first rate. We all had such a good time. We started out grazing on delicious nibbles and bubbly then make chocolate truffles as a group. Everything was delicious. The food and bubbly was plentiful as were the chocolates we got to taste and bring home. The service was impeccable and we left feeling like Timothys family. It was really an evening we will all remember. Thank you Timothy and Adams for hosting such a special evening for our group!

Small place but the best chocolate in the world. Ive only tried the white chocolates here and theyre beyond delicious. If you have a sweet tooth like I do then I highly recommend the Blonde Dulce (as a shake).I hear the dark chocolate options are awesome as well. So whatever your taste is, as long as you like some form of chocolate this is the place for you.

Love this place! I cant post the boomerang I took of the marshmallow dropping into the hot chocolate :( This place is amazing for chocolate lovers! They have excellent dairy-free milk options for hot chocolate, for which Im grateful!

The best hot chocolate in town. Ive even sampled the chocolates, and they are oh-so-good! Great ambience, friendly staff. A perfect replacement for Moniques which I used to frequent.

The owners are the nicest people, and the chocolates are excellent. A true Palo Alto gem.

Remarkably good chocolates. Innovative confections of multiple complementary flavors that can be tasted distinctly in each bite. The construction of each variant is well designed and executed, with a firm shell protecting the ganache. These pieces can be savored in smaller bites, without the remainder disintegrating, or crumbling. No gooey, gross rush of jellied liquor, either. Ive never tasted any chocolates like these, and the delicious novelty is well worth the premium price.

Cashier was very nice, explaining different types of chocolate and giving us some to sample. Definitely will come back again.

I was treated impatiently and rudely today when I attempted to purchase three small boxes of truffles for gifts. I had always had excellent experiences shopping at TimothyAdams; however, no cordiality was evident today. Rude! Perhaps the corporate influence has taken hold and small orders mean nothing. I did shift gears and went to The Works in Los Altos — delicious truffles and other types of candy plus extremely cheerful customer service and attitude. Going the extra mile seems to be what they do. Definitely worth the drive.

I ordered a nibble of the petit breakfast cheese and it not only came with crackers and berries, he brought me out some incredible poached quince that was a sweet, perfect match to the cheese. And of course, we love the hot chocolate! Definitely a great dessert and nibble destination!

Amazing service for corporate gifts - more than just great chocolates!I ordered a set of chocolates for gifts at a corporate event. There was a small mixup, that I didnt realize until Monday, when the shop was closed. Timothy Adams promptly responded to an email and delivered a new set of chocolates to Half Moon Bay within 24 hours. And the chocolates are amazing. I highly recommend them!

Amazing little place to try different kind of chocolates. Their hot chocolates are delicious 😋

No service! We love visiting chocolate boutiques around the country. We walked in around noon on Saturday when it was not busy. Chef Timothy Woods and another girl who was working at the time saw us but never came to the front to take order from my husband, he had been patiently waiting for a while. Is there another Timothy Adams Chocolates in Palo Alto? We need Jacques Torres!

I went here on a work team building event to do chocolate making. The couple that owns the place were tremendous hosts and very entertaining. The chocolate is very expensive but extremely good.

The best hot chocolate in Bay Area!!

Handmade truffles with organic cream? Yes please! Their flavors change daily and I just cant get enough. Hot chocolate is also excellent, complete with homemade marshmallows. Ive tried almost every choc shop in the bay area, they are by far my fav. Cute decor, friendly staff, satisfying sweets. What more could you want?

Greeted when we came in and helped and served right away. Picked out a few chocolates. The coffee one is delicious. And the abinao sipping chocolate. Recommend sharing. Its very creamy.

Terrific drinking chocolates

This place is insane! Everything is candy and all is related to pop culture in some way. Satire, facts, oldies and goodies, pop culture, rupaul, ect. They have candies from the past, from today and ones you havent seen before. You can even make your own! The atmosphere is divine and the sets are indescribable. Must see to believe!

We love coming to this beautiful little shop for their variety of delicious sipping chocolate and gorgeous chocolate bonbons. Timothy is always so kind to me and my kids. We highly recommend this place!

First visit.I had wanted to come here for a long time but I was a little intimidated so I went home and researched chocolate before I came. This has nothing on the chocolate, which I did not get to try, (it seems like their chocolate is very good quality) but the service is very cold, unfeeling, and makes one feel uncomfortable. I really wanted to love this place and have it replace Dandelion chocolate as my go to chocolate place, as it has bonbons, which Dandelion chocolate does not, and was really excited to visit. Unfortunately, this place does not have the warmth and sense of genuinely caring about your customers that dandelion chocolate has.P.S. First timers getting two free bonbons is not applicable to everyone.

Classy and elite experience

This is owned by two amazing people who make sure the quality of the chocolate is top top notch!

Beautiful truffles and ahh-mazing hot chocolate! Just the right amount of thickness to make it decadent but at the same time, drinkable. They have a variety of choices in terms of the chocolate itself for the sipping cocoa (varying % of darkness)If you are a hot chocolate fan, highly recommend this place! I personally cant have a full one myself, so sharing isnt a bad idea.

I always stop by here after dinner whenever I visit Palo Alto downtown. They have plenty of very unique chocolate. My favorite are the ones with some alcohol in them. This is also a very romantic place with its bunny themed ambience.

I am a dessert lover and one of my good friends told me to visit this place and I was excited to come here. I ordered Kokoleka milk with hazelnut shake Which was good, but not worth 10$. I would have given it 4 stars if the same thing was of 7$. I am a normal person and look for quality as well as quantity. The owner of the restaurant should not compare this with Santa Monica pier, which is a famous tourist place, and McDonalds which is not a dessert place.

Best hot chocolate I’ve had in the US. Such a treat!

Cute store, perfect stop by for cold rainy days and some quiet time. Not a lot of seats but not crowded either, space is comfy w vibrant colors, ramen nagi right next door so you can sip chocolate while waiting if thats on the agenda. A bit pricy but worth the quality, would love to stop by again.

Great chocolate truffles! Got an awesome service provided by Amanda. Shes so cute!

Its a little bit too Alice and Wonderland themed but the drinking chocolate is soooo good. They offer several different types of drinking chocolate at different percentages of cacao so it can be sweeter or sharper if you want. Staff is very lovely

Good hand made chocolates. A bit clumsy when compared with the elegance of Swiss chocolates but as good as it gets, for US chocolate. Also, the dark chocolate is bit sweeter than Swiss dark chocolate, not has much cocoa percentage. They need to go darker. ;-)

Great hot chocolate

Nice warm and cozy - located just off of university ave in Palo alto ; this hot chocolate joint offers varied cocoa % and excellent chocolates to go along with. Quite simply the best hot chocolate Ive ever had

Delicious as always! My favorite is the 72% dark cocoa with 2% milk!

Based on the truffles alone I give this place 5 stars. They are handmade in the shop and absolutely amazingly awesome. Lots of varieties, and each and every one of them amazing.

The place was very good and the detailing on the chocolate sips was great.I would definitely go back.

The best bonbons! I love buying these as a gift or for my family.

Always a pleasure to stop by here and have the shipping chocolate. This place will not get old!

Had a great time at the chocolate making workshop with the team! Highly recommended! Thank you!

Great hot chocolate. I recommend the chocolate making workshop for a romantic evening.

Certainly expensive, but worth it as a treat sometimes! You get to pick your chocolate (ranging from white chocolate to very dark chocolate) and the type of milk you want for your hot chocolate, and the outcome is chocolatey deliciousness thats hard not to like if you like chocolate at all

Great dark chocolates and friendly ppl!

I am the receptionist writing on behalf of the HR team at Vendavo. I organized a team building workshop with the wonderful owners at Timothy Adams. There were 8 of us that went. We were greeted with the most delicious prosecco, sandwiches, fruits, and fantastic cheese. Timothy had us try the different types of chocolates they use and explained each one to us. After that, he taught us how he makes the truffles and had us learn hands on how to make two different types. We had so much fun and got to go home with our creations. My HR team couldnt stop thanking me for organizing it. They said it was the best team building event they had ever been a part of.I have been going to Timothy Adams for over a year now. Chocolate is my favorite thing in the world and I have to say that their chocolate is the best chocolate I have tasted in the US. They take so much pride in their creations too. They spend days making each one. My favorite truffle is their peanut butter ones, but I have to say my favorite thing in the shop is their drinking chocolate. Its just like the ones they have in Europe. Non of that watery powdered nonsense you get in most places in the US. Timothy Adams uses the best chocolates and makes thick, smooth, amazing hot chocolate. You get to pick what type of milk youd like and what type of chocolate. You can add one of their homemade marshmallows to the top or even a shot of espresso. If you dont feel like having hot chocolate, you can have some wine or bubbly with your truffles. I love hanging out in the shop and enjoying my treats because the environment is so cute and inviting and they play fun music. I honestly cant say one bad thing about this place. If I could give it 6 stars I would! Thanks for always being so friendly and welcoming, Timothy and Adams! I wish all the best for you both and your lovely shop! - Terra

Very tasty hot chocolate! I got the 85% hot cocoa.

Cute place to bring a date after dinner in Palo Alto. :)

Great chocolate, fun owner who explains all the subtle differences in chocolate types, tempering, and more.

Fantastic chocolate truffles and caramels made in house. Great place to take a class in how to make truffles and includes tastings of chocolates. Yum! Timothy is fantastic!

Best dark chocolate Ive had in my life. Not sweet, nor bitter. Just pure chocolate.

My favorite chocolates. The company I work for gets them all the time for clients. They always give me a little treat when I pick up our chocolates.

Great variety of hot chocolates, delicious truffles, lovely ambiance. Fun to come with friends or as a post date treat.

Great chocolate all around

Amazing chocolates and very good service

Had a delicious cup of sipping chocolate, very interesting and fun decor. Can be a little of a sticker shock for some people though for the chocolate.

Slightly on the expensive side. Good chocolates though and wonderful people who help you with a smile.

Best chocolate shop in the bay area. Chocolate making class is wonderful as well. They provided us ganache and taught us to make a few type of bon bon. They allowed us to take as much of the chocolate we made after.The chocolate drinks here are amazing as well. It’s a full size cup of about 12 oz made using their handmade chocolate. They give you samples to see which type of chocolate you’d like as base.

Lovely owners who know how to make incredibly delicious chocolate

Probably the best chocolate Ive ever had. Also worth checking out their hot chocolate to drink in store.

Most people come here for the chocolate truffles, but my favorite thing to get here is the 72% dark chocolate sipping chocolate with hazelnut milk - cant be beat!

Wow ! The best dark chocolate shake I have had so far ! And the ambience is pretty too :)
