Hot Chocolate Places to Add to Your "Have to Go" List!

Personally, I'm not a coffee person, so when my friends are headed out for coffee, I always tag along and get myself a hot chocolate. So, whether you're in the same boat as me or just craving a warm cup of hot chocolate, here are a few places to check out around London!

Cafe Laville

Located in Little Venice, this delightful cafe is located right on the canal, so it's an excellent spot for taking pictures! It also has an incredible array of desserts (I personally recommend their tiramisu and cheesecake) that go great with their hot chocolate! Places always get brownie points from me when they have a cute design on top, and Cafe Laville very fittingly puts a heart. I will be going back for the hot chocolate and trying some of their pasta!

Italian Bear Chocolate

You may have seen this place go viral on TikTok, and I can attest that it's worthy of the attention it receives. Italian Bear Chocolate is a chocolate lover's paradise. It is famous for its "Triple Chocolate" hot chocolate, which includes white, milk, and dark chocolate. They are also well-known for their chocolate cake, and you can never go wrong with a chocolate chip cookie. It has two locations: one in Soho and the other in Fitzrovia. 

Half Million Cafe

If you're looking for a great deal on quality hot chocolate, look no further than Half Million Cafe! You can get a hot chocolate for £2.50, that is worth your while! They also have a variety of other drinks for reasonable prices as well. You can find their location on Oxford Street. 

Soft Serve Society

Located in Seven Dials Market, Soft Serve Society is not just incredible for its soft serve (I recommend trying their tiramisu and strawberry milk flavours) but also for its hot chocolate. You can get a classic cup for £4.50 or, if you're in the mood, a hot chocolate with marshmallow fluff for £6. They also are known for their hot puddings among all their other sweet treats, so there's definitely lots for you to enjoy there!

I hope you enjoy these recommendations and find your own hot chocolate spots to share with others!
