Alright - Edit
The Aztec chocolate drink with oat milk is alright but nothing I would talk about afterwards.

A disappointing visit - Edit
I read the other reviews and had such high expectations but I ended up disappointed. There were some vegan options, yes. But three raw food balls which I am quite fed up with as a vegan.. I ended up having a vanilla milkshake which basically tasted like vanilla oat milk. The service wasn't that nice either.
Read moreMaybe we had just bad luck..
Cons: The service, Vegan options not good

Dear MLI85
Read moreThank you for taking the time to share your experience — even if it wasn't what you'd hoped for. We're truly sorry to hear that your visit didn’t meet your expectations.
We aim to offer a unique and high-quality cacao-focused menu, and we understand that not everyone is looking for raw snacks .. That said, we’re always working to expand and refine our vegan offerings, and your feedback is valuable in that process.
We’re also sorry to hear that the service didn’t feel warm or welcoming — that's far from the experience we want anyone to have. We’ll definitely take your words to heart and use them to improve.
Best Regards

Pause gourmande 😋 - Edit
Le lieu est convivial, le gérant était très avenant, il a expliqué tous les détails et m'a fait un délicieux chocolat cru à la canelle option vegane servi dans une belle tasse ! J'ai pris une boule d'énergie aussi pour l'accompagner, aussi, il y a des éclats de fèves de cacao cru sur chaque table pour grignoter !
Read morePour chez moi, j'ai pris deux sachets individuels de préparation pour le chocolat chaud au gingembre et au chili, car je voulais découvrir d'autres saveurs aussi !
Pros: Lieu, décor , Gérant, Chocolat chaud vegan

Great hot chocolate in a calm environment - Edit
Located very close to the National Museum, this is a great spot to have a little bit of rest while sipping a great hot artisanal chocolate.
Read moreI liked that by default there's no sugar in it, so you can really enjoy the cacao taste.
Oat milk is used as vegan alternative.
The place is very cozy and the staff was welcoming.
Pros: nice hot chocolate, calm, friendly staff
Cons: not all vegan

Cocoa in a new way - Edit
Nice staff, and cocoa in a new way. Remember to ask for oat milk if you want it vegan. They also made their own, homemade raw-vegan chocolate bars and raw balls.

Did not meet our expectations. - Edit
We went there to expect a very special chocolat experience but what we got was a very average and overly sweet hot chocolat. Presentation of the cup is unique but taste only moderate. Pricy for what we got.
Read morePros: Friendly staff, Nice presentation, Quiet environment
Cons: Very sweet, Nothing special
