“ Stout cake was incredible-they should keep that on the menu if it isn't already a permanent fixture! Friendly staff and plenty of comfy seating. I'd go back. ”
“ Wonderful Hot Chocolate and their Cake..... Delicious! Easy walk from our rental- staff was friendly and helpful ”
“ This place is amazing! Their truffles, their ice cream, and their drinks are all out of this world! They have great gift items too, chocolates and hot chocolate mixes. I did lots of Christmas shopping there this weekend. I love being able to support Asheville businesses. ”
“ So I was obviously very excited for some super rich and thick hot chocolate , but it ended up being just ok. It looked a lot more rich than it was. Next time I'll go for some of their other tasty looking treats. ”
“ The service offered us free tastes of the ice cream and made jokes and were great to talk to. In addition, there was lots of seating, a place to take pictures, and great lighting. We enjoyed the ice cream. The chocolate crème brûlée and the liquid drink was bitter which was something that we weren't used to and didn't like. ”
“ Hands down to the chocolate crème Brûlée. Prices were a bit steep though the ambiance and service were good. We also tried the Affogato which was like any other affogato. ”
“ Atmosphere: French Broad Chocolate has a nice, comfortable area to relax and enjoy some sweet treats. Service: Though there is a good bit of foot traffic in the area, the line inside moved quite quickly. We got our pieces of chocolate and paid probably in the span of 1 minute. Food: We ordered the Mango Lassi and a souvenir variety box of Asheville restaurant-inspired flavors. We've only tried the Mango Lassi, which was delicious! The slight fruitiness of the mango balanced out with the richness of the chocolate, and the kick of spices gave the overall bite a unique complexity. Overall: We recommend stopping by French Broad Chocolate and trying a bite or two of their sweets. It was a great energy booster in the middle of a sunny, Asheville day, and the wide flavor offerings ensure there's something for everyone. ”
“ French Broad Chocolate Lounge in Pack Square tends to be one of the places I stop during my trips to Asheville. The blue building will catch your eye. I was introduced to the business many years ago on a food tour and have been going back ever since. They have a large seating area to mingle if you want to enjoy the ambiance there or you can buy chocolate; ice cream liquid chocolate or pastries to go. The prices are on the higher side but the bakery items are much cheaper than another pastry shop in the area. The service has been great on my visits here and my items are wrapped up nicely. ”
“ OK, I come back here every single time I visit Asheville. I have no idea why I gave this 4 stars originally but I'm updating to 5 because this is one of my favorite spots in avl. I love their milk and cookies ice cream and the specialty chocolates never disappoint. ”
