I have to start with….OMG the smells this place is so Beautiful! It makes you want to buy everything in there. The cookies were packed with chocolate and amazing texture. The ornament was a nice touch to leave with for my first time being in here. I’ve driven by it a lot and now it will be my place to stop for some great cookies and chocolates!!
The workers were friendly and the store was clean! The ice cream was more on the expensive side, which was to be expected due to the brand. It was delicious! Their prices for their chocolate seem to be more reasonable. There’s plenty of parking. There’s also both indoor and outdoor seating.
I was a little surprised that they didn't have peppermint chocolate, but it could be a seasonal thing. Love the sugar cookie chocolate! I was able to try out a few different types of chocolates. Kind of a small place, wish it was bigger. Watch out for the big rigs coming in and out.
Great road stop along the 5 fwy. Contrary to the size of the warehouse, this location is only a small chocolate store. You can purchase anything regarding Ghirardelli chocolate. You can also buy ice cream and coffee (Peet's Coffee). Several seating options both inside and outside. A nice detour that is enjoyable especially when it's hot.
This place is the best. I've come so many times! The chocolates you use to build your own bags change seasonally, which makes it fun to keep coming back. Based off the sign and size of the building it's in youd think it's bigger than it is, but even though it's small the chocolate is great and they have ice cream too!
