“They had the sweetest staffs and love the vibes! I got a piece of free chocolate upon entering the store, which was totally unexpected! Love the vibes and variety of merch available!”
“Absolutely love this store it’s huge has multiple floors. Has a customization area for create your own m&ms. Staff was amazing, very friendly. I can’t wait to come back I bought a mini dispenser for m&ms I love it!!!!”
“The chocolate here is truly the best! They have homemade Dubai bars that are worth every penny! The owner is local and a real sweet lady. You can tell she cares about the product and her customers. When you want to give a special gift, this is the place to go!!!”
“My boyfriend ordered these online after a coworker brought some in, and he loved them so much that he ordered me a box to ask me to be his Valentine. We enjoyed most of the assortment, but the chocolate marzipan was awful. It genuinely tasted like soap and perfume. Aside from that, the chocolate was great.”
“All I can say is WOW! Absolutely phenomenal this store is beautiful & inviting on all levels.
The sales associate (TARA) she was incredible & her expertise & her welcoming nature. It was my very first time visiting the store on Saturday March 15th in the evening around 6ish. The crowd was busy but (TARA) made everyone feel so welcome even when she was busy she kept her composure & with a great beautiful smile on her face she took care of everyone there. I can talk on & on about this fantastic place & the customer service is top tier.
I will absolutely return back!!
Thank you Tara for making my experience Wonderful!!”
“This place has three levels of candy. Literally every candy you can possibly want is here located at IT’S SUGAR. There is so much to choose from and great variety. I think I was more excited than the kids.”
“10/10 staff is as sweet as the chocolate! There’s so many choices for the Lindt lindor chocolate balls (probably not the right name haha) and so many gift boxes!!! I believe we were helped by Zina who was extra sweet!”
“Absolutely love this Royce Chocolate location. The chocolate is incredibly smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced—not overly sweet, just pure quality. Every piece feels thoughtfully made and truly indulgent.
The staff at the Bryant Park shop were friendly, patient, and happy to explain the different options, which made the experience even better. It’s the perfect stop for a gift or a little treat for yourself while walking through the area.
If you’re a chocolate lover, this place is a must. Consistently excellent and always a pleasure to visit.”
“She's the BEST ! ! ? by providing highly personalized experiences that comfort my kids and building a reputation as a caring customer- focused brand. Loved, will go back again for sure.”
“Absolutely loved my first visit to ROYCE Chocolate! Suzzane was fantastic. She helped me pick out delicious chocolate gifts that my family absolutely loved, and she wrapped everything beautifully. The experience was wonderful from start to finish. Highly recommend!!”
“The staff here is really friendly, polite and helpful. I went there as I needed a personalized piñata. The piñata they made was beautiful my kid loved it. I would highly recommend it and will definitely be going back.”
“I love Harlem Chocolate Factory! The chocolates are unique, delicious and memorable, and are worth the trip from wherever you happen to be in the city. I have gone out of my way on multiple occasions to visit during their opening hours just to purchase their truffles, and I often bring folks with me or purchase their chocolate for others. The response is always the same (some version of "omg these are amazing!"). The staff is also lovely and lively - I have yet to meet a sad or sulky person working the counter. It's a small shop but an enjoyable experience. I have tried virtually everything they sell except maybe a few of the bars, and I have not once been disappointed. Try them and thank me later.
Parking: There is no dedicated parking - there is street parking and a few paid garages in the area.”

“Awesome shop for Chocolates and assorted Candies. The real treat is the custom made displays like Chocolate Cornucopia with Assorted Cookies, the Chocolate Santa Sleigh with Assorted Cookies, or the Chocolate Snowman with Assorted Cookies.”
“It's exactly what you love about a mom n pop shop. Small intimate and straight to the point. Best $1+ sandwiches NEXT TO HAAJI'S (Currently Blue Sky Deli on 110th n 1st ave) literally Marys candy store been around for so long I pray they never go out of business !! Literally a staple in the east Harlem community. I have been going here since I was in 6years old in PS 102, I'm so lucky my grandma still live in the area and I now work close by so I can enjoy a treat or 3. Now my daughter can also enjoy Sandwiches from here too. I'm actually on my way right now lol♥️♥️♥️♥️ see you soon ?????y'all are the best.”
“I love this place!!! It is so welcoming with a warm family feeling. I drive 19 miles to visit. Super friendly staff and very patient. Always a hit when I bring a nice tray to work to share (maybe ?). I recommend everyone to stop by.”
“I just watched See no Evil on ID DISCOVERY GO APP .THIS happened like a decade ago but It's so sad the hustle mart case . How the poor family that was just making their honest living got executed for no reason due to a robbery . Made my blood boil. RIP NABIL , SAM AND THE COUSIN.”
“Friendly guy at the counter gave some recommendations. They stock items from Albania and their neighbors in the Balkans. I noticed many types of ajvar ( it's a spicy red pepper and eggplant spread), paprika, teas, and packaged pastries and biscuits. I found a Greek 'mountain tea' to try. It is sideritis or iron wort and naturally used for anemia. I would recommend stopping by to explore and bring home different ingredients to try.”
“The booth is really small so only 2 people can enter at a time. The gentleman and lady helped me to pick out the right chocolate. I didn't realize how expensive it was. However, the chocolate was superb .”

“Came by looking for some herbal teas to beat the summer heat. All the staff were so kind and helpful, gave us a couple of recommendations and suggested a soup to make at home. They also have brewed herbal teas you can drink in store. Everyone went above and beyond! Thank you!”

“I found this convenience store on a whim while in need of water. Lucky for me they had that and a LOT of other things. I was also I need of beer for my thanksgiving party. Thank you SM news and grocery.”
“I love their marzipan I wish they start to make a premium brand with real almonds and less sugar at a more expensive price. I think there is a market for that also”
“I had my daughter's Bridal Shower at Matisse Chocolatier in Englewood this past weekend and it was a huge success! The owner Lucille, and manager Nija, couldn't have been any nicer, more hospitable, or more helpful throughout the party. It's a GREAT venue for a bridal shower. The bride as well as all the guests absolutely loved the idea of being there for a bridal shower, as it was so different from a typical shower venue. Everyone had so much fun making chocolate, interacting with one another, and of course the chocolate was delicious! I would DEFINITELY recommend Matisse Chocolatiers for your next party, and/or social event.”
