Lovely museum well laid out with lots of interesting information - Family of 5 with 3 kids14,12,10 bought tickets on the spot was relatively quiet. Really enjoyed the museum and kids were interested throughout. Nice blend of media to interact with and follows the story of chocolate to present day. Ending up with a demo of making pralines. Was much nicer and more engaging than I was expecting we stayed for about 2 hours in total. Well worth a little visit in our opinion

Nice visit - 1h30 visit with our 2 children (2 years and 5 years) and it was very good. Each room is different, dynamic enough to arouse everyone's curiosity and brings interesting info (+small interactive games for children). To do if you like chocolate! Possibility to enjoy a hot chocolate at the end of the visit (white, dark or milk via a spoon that is turned in milk).

Informative experience with a chocolate treat! - A really interesting exhibition that talks you through the history of chocolate. Lots of antique chocolate related items on display are really interesting. The visual explanations about where chocolate comes from and how it’s made are good but would be even better if you could have seen this process in real life. Was good value for money and chocolate tasting of dark, milk, amber and white chocolate was a nice treat! We watched the 10 minute demo at the end and tasted a praline. Interesting but left wanting to understand the process more deeply.

Wouldn’t rush back - Visited here in September, lots of facts etc about chocolate obviously. Good for children! I went in on the day not sure of cheaper online. Don’t expect loads of chocolate freebies! There was a chocolate demonstration but wasn’t for another hour! Wouldn’t rush back

Underwhelming - Pros: chocolate samples, demonstrations, lots to see. Cons: overpriced, slightly boring (maybe that’s because of how the information is presented - with your own handheld audio device), very busy, not accessible with lots of stairs. If you’re really interested in the history of chocolate then it’s worth a visit, if not don’t bother really. Just go and spend the €14 on some chocolate instead.

All you ever wanted to know about chocolate! - An interesting museum that as suggested takes you through the story of chocolate and its arrival in Europe. Well put together, although I think we were both happy to get to the end of the commentary, a bit of information overload!
