The Chocolate Bar

We visited for the chocolate fun session and would highly recommend it. It was well organised and the staff were attentive in making sure we had everything we needed. We'll definitely be back to this lovely cafe.

What a lovely place. Toasties were excellent and the cakes to die for. A couple of the other people in the shop recommended the strawberry tart to us and it was probably the best strawberry tart iv had . We also bought a box of chocolates that looked amazing

Small cosy wee cafe that filled up really quickly on the morning i was in , was too early for the tempting selection of chocolate and cakes so settled for the chicken and mayo toastie and a flat white , both were excellent and served by the friendly young lass who had taken the order , pricing was very reasonable and i will be back for one of the very tempting hot chocolates

I don't often write reviews but I have to say about the exceptional service and delicious food and drinks at The Chocolate bar today in Ellon. Took my daughter for a treat, she'd had a tough week, the greeting was warm and friendly with the woman taking time to talk to my daughter, the drinks and food were delicious, a very welcome treat. We were so impressed we brought my husband and son after parkrun. 100% recommend.

I loved my visit here!! If I was local I would 100% be a regular - great coffee, super friendly owner and the best treats.

So good! Really tasty and super friendly. Had a great first visit. Hope to go back. They were really nice to my toddler and made us feel so welcome.

Although I’ve worked in Ellon for a few years now, I never realised this was a coffee shop! I always thought it was “just” a chocolatier but when I popped in earlier today to buy some chocolates, I realised they had a great coffee menu and a good spread of tables for sitting in. I had a latte and it was exactly what I needed for a decent caffeine top-up. It’s a really nice, cosy little place with a good range of food and drinks, as well as the excellent chocolates of course. First visit today, but it won’t be the last. I grabbed a bag of chocolate to take away as a gift and the selection is excellent.

This place is nothing short of fantastic. It's tiny (so make sure you book) and it has such a lovely atmosphere, partly due to the relaxing decor and partly due to the wonderful staff. We had a pre booked afternoon tea (booking was super easy). What a treat it was. Everything was made on the premises, the sandwiches were generously filled and made with a selection of different breads all of which were so fresh. The bite sized sausage rolls were crisp on the outside and well flavoured, I even loved the garlicky gazpacho soup. The scones were light and fresh and beautifully flavoured, and came with bowls of jam and clotted cream. The cakes were something else entirely, too many to mention from super light carrot cake to a dense and fudgy chocolate brownie, to a custard cream that melted in the mouth, there was even glasses of strawberry Eton mess, oh my goodness so good, and everything was beautifully presented. We were served with hot and cold drinks of our choice, and the helpful staff checked regularly (but not too much) if we needed anything else. We felt welcome to sit and enjoy our afternoon tea have a well earned catch up and a laugh. We're looking forward to returning (another customer told me they've booked in for Christmas afternoon tea already so we might do the same) and sampling some of their regular menu as all the food we saw looked fantastic. Everyone involved here deserves to be proud of the quality of the food and the customer service they provide.
