Particularly when you get closer to the center, the premises become unapproachable and the quality drops. This is why it is important before leaving, to write down all the right addresses and go without fail, to avoid wandering around the city for hours, looking for a place to sit and have a snack. So here it is where to find the best hot chocolate in Verona. The perfect place not only in winter, but also in summer and spring, now I'll explain why.
The best hot chocolate in Verona
When you are in a tourist city like Verona, the advice is to get away from the main shopping streets and instead go into the less traveled alleys. The most beautiful surprises are usually found there, such as a typical restaurant, a tavern or in this case, a beautiful one chocolate shop - wine shop - art gallery.
Where it is
The address is Cavalletto alley, a two-minute walk from Piazza delle Erbe heading towards the Adige river and Romeo's House. This alley is an oasis of peace in the middle of the chaos of the historic center of Verona. Even though it is located in the heart of the city, it manages to carve out a silent and reserved atmosphere. The place to find the best hot chocolate in Verona is Art & Chocolate: from the outside it looks almost like a small vintage furniture shop, but inside it is a real find.
The protagonist is always chocolate
Art & Chocolate it is first of all a chocolate shop. In fact, in the winter you can enjoy hot chocolate (with or without cream) flavored for example with chilli, vanilla, coconut, orange and many other flavors. Throughout the year, chocolate remains the real star of Art & Chocolate, with pralines, bars, melted chocolate creams, cakes and an infinity of delicious desserts.
If you are not a chocolate lover (which is very rare!), Ad Art & Chocolate you can also enjoy excellent natural herbal teas, coffee and cappuccinos made with the products of Pedron roasting, a small local family business, with a coffee of the highest quality. Other than that, there are also Italian craft beers and a selection of natural and organic wines, selected with the project Free Wine. Finally, Art & Chocolate is also the perfect place for cocktails, with a selection of fine gins and rums.
Art and chocolate
The furniture is made with salvaged objects, thus creating a very particular style, crowned by the works of art that are temporarily hung on the walls. Art and chocolate have always created a winning combination and this place is absolutely proof of it!
Finally, numerous courses are also organized throughout the year, to learn more about the raw materials that are used and to learn how to cook. Art & Chocolate is the classic place where you want to take refuge on rainy days, but also on beautiful sunny days, perhaps for an aperitif with friends. In short, it is the place where you always want to go. In the chaos of the center of Verona it is a place not to be missed: last tip, if you go during the weekend maybe it is better to book a table.
