Reviews of Chocolate Holler (Coffee Shop)

Hiram Ruiz

Loved the community vibe, friendly staff and variety of hot chocolates. However, for me the chocolate could have been hotter and stronger.

Emily DeVries

Unique, great quality, and great service! Probably not the best for vegans (I didn't see one vegan pastry). If you have a chocolate craving, this is the place for you! One of the bear drinks with honey was too sweet to drink, but the sleepy bear was pretty good! Definitely recommend.

Megan Moore

Get the cold brew shaker!

Hailee Shannon

Absolutely amazing vibe and the drinks are really good and reasonably priced

Stephani Gillham

Great local coffee and sweets (love the cold brew chocolate coffee)

Sky Baas

So cozy and welcoming! The staff is quirky, responsive, and fast at making gourmet chocolate drinks and more! Rent it out for events, study, read a book, or finish some work... It's like a coffee shop for chocolate! What a gem in Lexington!

Melissa Bachelder

Great new place, small but cozy. Excellent menu selections!

navyflibertyjibet

amazing hot or iced chocolate drinks. They also have some really yummy snacks (the brownie is my favorite) and coffee drinks. The hazelnut hot chocolate is my go to drink here! The staff is always really kind, friendly, hard-working people!

Bruce Shelton

Friendly service, pleasant atmospher and great chocolate.

Jean Valentine

Cool concept to differentiate a standard coffee house. The wall of chocolate bars could be helped by visiting a World Market, and the drinks seem to be fairly standard mochas.

Michelle Harris

My favorite place to get my caffeine intake

Braxton Howard

Excellent chocolate and fantastic, friendly service. The people behind cup of Commonwealth have hit it out of the park. Can be absurdly crowded when school is in session.

Kelsey Garcia

delicious chocolates, nice decor

Nao Nao

飲み物のメニューしかありませんが、店名にチョコレートと名が付くだけあって、チョコレートの飲み物の種類は豊富です。コーヒー等の普通のカフェにあるような種類もあります。食べ物はクッキーやチョコレートケーキ(? 厚みはなく薄かった)などしかありません。サンドイッチやバーガーはありません。 駐車場は、お店の前に３.４台置けますが、他の店舗と共同の駐車場なので、店舗専用駐車場と札が立っているところでなければ、どこに停めても大丈夫だと思います。座席は６人がけの長テーブルが２組、２人がけが３組くらい(?)、４人がけが２組くらい(?)で、それほど座席数は多くはないです。コーヒー豆も買えます。雰囲気も良く、スタッフも親切です。

Arthur Cammers

kody Monroe

Highly recommend for a date

Adam Flora

The baristas was very polite. Very helpful on helping me decide a drink. All around great experience!

Marley Johnson

I only go for the snickerdoodle on ice - but Jake who works there is very pleasant! Nice, lowkey spot to get work down or sit down to meet with people.

Lloyd White V

The atmosphere is very relaxed and the hot chocolate was fantastic!

Duke Derdock

Random find while visiting Lex. Parking can be difficult ( but that goes for anywhere in the city ). They had a great variety of offerings and combinations to choose from. Extremely nice and was very family friendly.

Madison Tolson

Great drinks and great service

Kaushik A

I like coming here on a weekend morning, after some brunch or just early evening. Get a hot chocolate flight. Sip on some dark and rich chocolate drinks. Their drinks are not too sweet and I like it that way, but the baristas can always make them sweeter upon request. Their chocolate cookies are really good.

Anna Lambert

Delicious drinks and wonderful, friendly staff. I love coming here :)

Keiko Davisson

This is a really cute little hot chocolate shop. The two guys making drinks were really friendly and were happy to help me choose a drink I wanted based on how sweet I like my drinks. They have stainless steel straws and glass cups for the for here drinks.

andria jackson

They give major chains a run for their money!! Delish!

도현윤

Because parking is not free, the spaces are very limited, also if you are lactose intolerant, dont go there. It gives you the tummies. I mean bad ones. But also, sipping chocolate was nice

John Hardin

Very unique shop everyone should go at least twice a day

will mason

My favorite coffee shop/hot chocolate in Lexington! The hot chocolates are incredible, (sleeping bear all day) however, the staff is what keeps me coming back. Friendliest people you will ever meet, (Emma and Sal to note) that genuinely care about your life. Always good conversation. If you are in need of a place to study, grab hot chocolate on a date, or just to talk to someone, you can't go wrong with chocolate holler.

Jared Genta

Good stuff

Emily Slayden

Delicious and most excellent and friendly service!

Joyia Williams

Jennifer Bradford

Great local spot downtown, sit awhile and enjoy a some of the items on their menu. Relaxed and comfortable.

Nicole Jasperson

Wow, this place is my dream come true. Hot chocolates gallour! So many hot chocolate flavors to pick from, I want to try them all. Great place to hang out, chat, play their board games, or study. If you love hot chocolate, do yourself a favor and make this place part of your day.

Holly Hughes

Nice relaxed atmosphere

Akram Kiassi

The place looks good and the service is fast. However, the hot chocolate is thin and not much creamy. Also, the place is packed with students making a bit challenging to find a spot.

Elizabeth Smith

They have a really nice variety of hot chocolates, along with coffee, tea, and sipping chocolate. I would definitely go back to try more flavors.

Amanda Reid

Love the hot chocolate and the sipping chocolate! Excellent quality, decent prices, pleasant staff.

Wolfe Casals

Jackie McFarland

Staff is always friendly and knowledgeable about the offerings. Good for all - who can resist a cup of chocolate?

Eric Bryant

Cool place for hot chocolate and coffee, the atmosphere is relaxed and the people are great. It has selections of chocolate to buy as well.

Ashley Roach

Excellent staff and delicious chocolate.

Niraj Chavan

So many different types of chocolate that make this a chocolate lover's paradise!... their scones are great too.. highly recommended... the Orange flavored coffee had nothing more than a slight hint of orange - could've done better with more orange and lastly the sipping chocolates could work better with being a bit thicker and creamy in consistency!

C.R. Antoniak

Great chocolate, good coffee!

Marianne Crawford

For the hot chocolate lover! All terrific flavors iced or hot! 5 stars for fast friendly service and Terrific atmosphere! Took one star off only for limited parking. Go around back and park if none in front.

Zachary Clay

Friendly staff, great food, great coffee

Zac Woodward

Nice coffee shop with focus on chocolates, hit chocolates, and European style sipping chocolates. Great atmosphere and friendly staff.

Matthew Pelais

Excellent service! Very personable staff which added that extra factor to an already awesome experience and delicious dessert and drinks.

Max Bredfeldt

Nice atmosphere, very good chocolate. The spicy mayan was the best! Must try it!

Sierra H

The best drinking chocolate I've ever had. I like that they offer different flavors and they will take the time to explain the differences. Try the sampler!

Katelynn Ralston

Chocolate Holler is a gift! I'm a certified chocolaholic and it's my favorite place to get a delicious chocolate treat. They have iced chocolate drinks now as well as a variety of locally made desserts and organic & fair trade chocolate options for purchasing. They've got Taza brand Mexican chocolate that is perfect for drinking or making mole with. Love this place!

Katie Ratajczak

Every drink here is amazing and the staff are the friendliest around.

Charles Davis

Great coffee, cool space, and the tasting chocolate menu is fun and unique. The only thing keeping me from giving the fifth star is that I can almost never find a seat; their constant business and lack of available space makes me want to drive past more often than not.

Robert Webber

Great coffee and sipping chocolate drinks

Oksana Grishchuk

Cozy atmosphere, good drinks, good place to relax or catch up with a friend. Wonderful, rich, chocolate drinks, perfect for a cold winter day.

Angela Addington

My daughter discovered this place thanks to her roomates that are local to Lexington. We stopped in and checked it out. Fun place, quaint and homey. Very popular from the crowd mid day during mid week. Seems to be a college hangouts with a few locals sprinkled in. Good selection of drinks and you can do chocolate shots here too.

Robin Swearinger

Disappointment. Was looking forward to this place for desert for anniversary. No truffles, no mousse, sad. That was our plan. Oh well. Chochlatiers. I need reliable access. Chocolate Holler should be a go to.

Terry Poirier

This place is fantastic! The hot drinks are not so piping hot, you never have to wait for it to cool off. Overall, it's a wonderful place to get you a fancy but delicious hot chocolate!

Michelle Shane

Amazing and delectable. Must. Go. Back.

Peter Briggs

Great people, great coffee :)

Jared Seymour

Awesome little niche coffee, hot chocolate, and blended drink locale. Staff is super friendly, and prices are fair for the super high quality of product you get. Coolpay it forward wall to buy a cup of joe for someone else, free WiFi location as well. Try some of the baked goods as well. Usually more college students then anyone else, but family friendly and safe with parking right out front off Old Vine St.

Kyle

Great coffee and great vibe.

Kate Marshall

The coffee & chocolate drinks are amazing!! But the employees really make the experience. They always ask me how I’m doing & take the time to get to know me. Favorite coffee shop in town by far!!

Great Drinks, AMAZING people working there, nice atmosphere. & dime lovely memories made with my family & friends. The butterscotch Cocoa with espresso shot and whip - my absolute favorite! Just ask for the Butterscotch with all the things.

David Ciochetty

Electic coffee and hot chocolate shop. I was surprised and satisfied. Both caffeinated and decaf available. Huge selection of hot chocolate; we had a flight of three (you can try all seven) in addition to our coffee order. Pet friendly! We will be back. Check the "pay it forward" wall for a free drink (you'll laugh at the descriptors).

Sam Nichol

Worth visiting if you're in town. Their sipping chocolate is

Josh Dixon

Friendly and knowledgeable staff with a great selection of amazing drinks. I will definitely come back when I'm in the area!

Thomas Spence

I was expecting more and exotic chocolate varieties

holly chowning

Atmosphere is wonderful and coffee and chocolate is even better

Marie_Smore

The Hot chocolate is AMAZING and very high quality. The staff are extremely nice as well.

Jacob Tenney

Craft hot chocolate. Really good.

Quintin Coppola

An interesting space and concept that I haven’t seen since I was in Boston at Taza chocolate. Conversation was fun and interesting. Their Del Sol hot chocolate was pretty good...I prefer thicker hot chocolate...like what you’ll find at Granja M Viader in Barcelona. Apparently the tasting chocolates are thicker, so if I’m ever in town again I’ll stop by and give that a try.

Zach Wilder

The specially chocolates were great - I had a flight of three and loved #7 the most!

Amanda Holt

Not only are the drinks here to die for and affordable, but this place is owned, managed, and operated by some of the best people you'll ever encounter. Be sure to come out for Monday night Trivia!

Stephanie Echols

Amazing assortment of chocolate drinks, both hot and cold. Knowledgeable staff and welcoming atmosphere.

marcia hurlow

Good coffee, but the chocolate is amazing! There was a long menu of hot chocolates, including spicy chocolate, the Elvis with peanut butter and banana, and my favorite, the Honey Bear. There are also about ten "sipping chocolates" made in small cups from chocolate from around the world. I also like their baked goods, such as scones, cookies and brownies. The seating inside is limited but cozy.

John Martinez

Friendliest place ever!

Creekmore Marketing

Loved the Chuao Sippin' Chocolate! Great atmosphere and friendly staff.

Andres Mitchell

College atmosphere? Check. Great choices? check. Wide selection of hot and cold drinks? Check

Lydia Behr

Very friendly service and delicious chocolate

Suheil Albaree

Very relaxed environment friendly workers quiet calm great study environment! Wide assortment of specialty drinks but they still have regular drip coffee if that's what your preference. they do an good job. Sometimes they offer trivia questions and if answered correctly you get a free coffee! upgrade from Starbucks and give this place a try !!

Jack Starnes

Great atmosphere with a comfortable feeling and warm vibe. The affagato with chocolate ice cream was the perfect balance of bitter(from the espresso) and sweet(chocolate ice cream) and the snickerdoodle hot chocolate was just right with its sweetness.

Kyle Raney

The environment is really fun and the employees always have great attitudes!

Kellie Rickard

Cute little shop. Friendly staff with great chocolate and coffee.

Lisa Tolliver

Try the Sleeping Bear hot cocoa, or ANY of the sipping chocolates. Terrific

Crystal Wilkinson

Amazing latte and the spicy tasting chocolate was divine. Great service.

HB Elam

Great community and people. Love all their takes on sipping chocolates and all their new iced drinks too! Have a Honey Bear with espresso if you can't decide what you want.

Courtney LeMay Birnbaum

Created by the minds behind coffeeshop A Cup of Common Wealth — which you can see from this shop! — Chocolate Holler provides a nicer atmosphere than the laid-back original, with sweets and drinks and atmosphere encouraging you to linger to enjoy the company and the handmade wood tables.

Jonathan Born

Cool hangout, board games are available. Hit up the pay it forward wall, or add to it. Never know what life will do to you.

Laura Peterson

This is probably one of my favorite places in Lexington. There are tons of flavors of chocolate milk (and you can add esspresso shots). I would highly recommend the sipping chocolate. Best. Thing. Ever.

Tonya Spears

Love it!

Von Wides

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this place! Staff is very friendly! Chocolate drink was perfect! Exactly what I needed.

Jonas Ladekjaer

Delicious chocolate drinks and good atmosphere.

Alexandra Mott

I loved the atmosphere from the moment I stepped through the door!! I have huge appreciation for the Pay-It-Forward nook, I really love those sorts of kindness and community building movements. I ordered a chocolate cookie for my son and a Chocolate Blossom for myself. I didn't expect to care much for the cookie but it was PERFECT. It was soft and light and not-too-rich and awesome! I was expecting the hot chocolate to be too rich as well and ordered a short not expecting to be able to handle more than that. But then I took a sip of this DELIGHTFUL concoction and immediately wished for more! It was so very balanced. The flavor was wonderful and it was not too rich- it was just right!!

Skye O'Neill

With a rustic atmosphere and the aroma of chocolate and coffee you can't help but to stay and enjoy the experience. The baristas were very helpful and knowledgeable in their coffee and I will always go back again and again.

Tim Benedict

Awesome local spot! We got the chocolate flight and it was incredible. The hot chocolate is Italian-style, thick and creamy. I really liked all 3 types that we tried. I will definitely be coming back and I wish I knew about this place earlier.

Douglas Carreno

Great coffee shop. They are patient and very kind. The coffee was great and the chocolate they sell is amazing. Very cozy place always filled with students from UK that is close by. Definitively a place to enjoy while you drink your cofee

Timothy trobridge

Amazing people and drinks!

Romina Taylor

Great place for chocolate lovers

Lion Christ

Seems like your average socialist coffee-cult feminist/philosopher hangout except with a chocolate theme. Drinks were okay but there is not much substance to this location.

Ed Catlett

Great selection and staff

Zahra S

Lovely place amazing hot chocolate. I tried lacendar one and it was great

Stoyan Wassilev

Best Cafe in Lexington

Nathan Cornett

Sipping Chocolate!

E. Pace
