Fascinating look at the the history and origins of chocolate, whilst getting to experience the taste evolution as well, always a bonus for chocolate lovers. We all enjoyed this experience and recommend it.

This is a really lovely experience. We visited today with 3 children 8,9 and 12 and they had a great time. Have asked to go back again. The gentleman on reception was really friendly and helpful. The chocolate is reasonably priced and you get some samples to taste on the way round at different points. I recommended for the young as it’s an interactive experience and the adults as you can take a walk down memory lane when looking at the displays.

We visited on a weekday during the summer holidays. The museum was quiet. It's slightly off the beaten track, but a real hidden gem. The information is great, and the exhibits were good. It included a mix of traditional exhibition displays (put your hand in the box and guess what this is; information panels) and screen-based (guess the answers to this quiz) taking you through the history of his chocolate was discovered, what it was used for and how it came to be what it is today. There were a series of videos throughout giving more information. We were here for about an hour, but could have spent much longer. The tasters as you could round were a fun addition to the tour, but they do a wonderful job of preparing you for the gift shop. We bought a chocolate bar and hot chocolate too.

We went on a spur of the moment decision as it was a wet day, so glad my wife found it on Google maps as it's tucked away. It's a very informative place, great staff and a lovely little museum full of history and a few chocolate samples as you go round. The staff were nice and friendly made the experience even better, thanks guy

We had an absolutely incredible visit to the chocolate experience in LLANDUDNO. A place bursting with chocolatey history and a delightful dragon hunt game that kept the kids entertained throughout. The samples were timed perfectly, making the experience truly unforgettable. Thank you for the warm welcome, we had an absolute blast!
