House of Chocolate in St. George's, Grenada House of Chocolate Grenada Museum is located at Young Street in St George's, Grenada. Wonderfully deceptive, this spacious shop outlines the history of cocoa in sort of a museum format. Spend a moment to read through the exhibits and absorb the history and culture. Then sample the various treats for sale, everything from bath items, to ice cream, to tasty treats, jewelry, and other nice gift items, and of course, the delicious chocolate bars. We had a great time sampling the different chocolates and stocking up with all kinds of goodies. Beautiful little chocolate shop right next to the Grenada Museum. A must visit if you're in St. George's and would like to sample one of their chocolate coffees and grab some gifts for family and friends back home. It is located in the historical district. We took home some roasted espresso beans, chocolates and delicious cocoa powder for our friends. Definitely worth a visit. Nice place to visit if you don’t have the time to visit the chocolate factory. House of Chocolate is a unique and beautiful hand crafted mini-museum portraying the history of chocolate. A small boutique carries a selection of all things made with cocoa in Grenada. Part cafe, part museum, part gift shop, this welcoming place is dedicated to all things cocoa. You can sample chocolate in both its liquid and solid forms, and buy bars from different local producers to take home. There are also delicious cakes and brownies. What child, big or small, doesn’t love a good chocolate story? That’s exactly what you are going to get at Grenada’s House of Chocolate. It would be ideal to visit this stop early on in the vacation; that way children can identify different parts of the cocoa process around the island during their stay. Stop into the retail front of the shop and request a tour. They are free and often; you can even join one in progress. The chocolate history and presentation is a 20-minute hands-on, mouth-watering overview of the island’s cocoa culture. It’s an easy, tasty and educational stop. I've been back to the House of Chocolate each and every time we come to Grenada. The variety of all things Chocolate is astounding, some of which I never knew existed or could even be done! They also have non-chocolate: spices, bags, clothes, ornaments, tea, scented candles/oils/burning sticks, and much more. The cafe provides teas, coffees, cakes, and ice creams - eat in or take away plus they have fantastic Aircon! We have previously been given the talk/tour of the process of chocolate production which is interesting, informative and entertaining for the kids. Great place!
