Jacques Torres Chocolate

Love Jacques Torres Chocolates.
This location offers the same quality chocolates as the other ones in NY. Their ice cream, cookies, and hot chocolates are delicious too. There are plenty of boxed chocolate goodies too that make wonderful gifts for that chocolate lover in your life. It smells awesome in here! There are two tables in here as far as seating goes. Employees are friendly enough.

The peanut butter rocky road is incredible! Even the marshmallows were delicious and I normally don’t pay attention to them in rocky road. Jacques Torres is a master! I need to try an ice cream sandwich one of these days :)

Mmmm gooey buttery giant chocolate chip cookies!!! Must get them! And their lemon sorbets

I super love their chocolate chip cookie!!! it’s so big but I could gobble it down in a few bites because of how good it was. I also tried their hot chocolate. Very smooth and rich. I will go and try their frozen hot chocolate next time.

i believe their packaged chocolates were around $ 20-​$ 25 for a box of 9 pieces. I bought two extra pieces on the side to try. Their flavors were very unique. the store is pretty small and can get really crowded near holidays!

If you do yourself one favor, get the spicy hot chocolate. It’s decadent and delicious. A small size might be a little pricey, but the quantity is all that you need. There are tons of other chocolate treats to get here, including an all-​season gelato selection.
Only two tables for seating in the back. No bathroom.

The people who work here are rude and really give off the demeanour that working at the shop is a massive effort and they would rather be somewhere else. All three times I have gone to the store I notice the hostile vibe and just think it wouldn’t take much for them to pretend they are interested or at work and people are buying something from them.

Way too pricey for a humble civil servant like me, but we were walking by and my 10 year old nephew could not be stopped from rushing in to gaze in amazement. I let him choose two pieces from the display and the very sweet person behind the counter offered as much in samples. The chocolate here is so rich and exquisite that that you’ll never be able to tolerate the ordinary stuff again.

I really love their chocolate, and have been there several times.
I went with a friend for a hot chocolate (usually I get it almond or soy milk). There was two employees, and one was helping a customer the other one was doing nothing, and finally decided to take out order. So we asked for 2 hot chocolates one with soy– and she said the hot chocolate was already pre-​made and couldn’t make it with other milk. So I settle for it thinking it was too odd since I always ask for soy. But to my surprise, they had a jar of ‘hot chocolate’ already made. So she just warm the whole thing and serve it to us…
Last time I checked, according to the health department you can not have food like that, and have to be with in a temperature range I guess the employee laziness didn’t care about basic regulations.

The iced Classic Mocha is the best thing I’ve ever had in my whole invite life. Way better pick me up than the overpriced coffee in this neighborhood. It’s dessert & energy in a drink. Bless this place.

Was craving some ice cream and this hit the spot! There’s a pretty wide variety of flavors and what great service! Will return.

Mediocre and pricey food, employees that judge and stare you down until you leave, and hostile environment. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else.

I used to love the chocolate chip cookie at the Tribeca location so much I’d walk an hour to get to it. (Not really)
I was happy about this new location and decided to try the peanut butter chocolate chip cookie. How can a cookie be so greasy AND so dry? That person who noted the grease seeping through the bag in their review was right on. The taste wasn’t anything special either.
I’m so disappointed I don’t even plan to go back and see if the regular chocolate chip is still good.

I haven’t really tried much here but OH MY GOODNESS… those chocolate chip cookies. They are seriously good. And you can buy them frozen to bake at home and eat fresh out of your own oven. DO IT.

LOVE this place! OK, it’s not big on atmosphere and is a little chain-​y, almost fast food like in some ways… but the products are solid and the customer service is great. They offer samples of the cookies on the weekends, and other busy times. All the chocolates are excellent, if pricey. We treat ourselves in the winter to the hot chocolate, which is amazing! You only need a small — it’s so rich! And it’s super thick — it’s like a melted chocolate bar. And the whipped cream is equally decadent. It’s real, freshly whipped cream that they scoop on the top. Because it’s homemade, it’s a little uneven, but it only add to the charm. My favorite is the ‘wicked,’ flavor with VERY little ancho pepper & spice. I wish they used a little more, for my taste. But it’s a French product, and they are all about subtle flavors. I think they small hot cocao is $ 3.50, but it’s $ 4 at Starbucks, so why not? The other products are pricey, but they are high quality and delicious. The Nolita location is convenient, but it’s small with no wifi, and they can blast some lame music. But you don’t stay long, so it’s alright. Bleeker station is right outside, and whole foods is nearby and a cool coffe shop next door.

Do you like hot chocolate? Do you like peanut butter? The peanut butter hot chocolate is the most amazing thing you will ever drink during the winter! It’s life changing. Chucks of chocolate peanut butter with every sip.
If chai lattes are in your past welcome to your future of white chocolate and chai latte. This is great as well.

Really disappointed! Been in my list to go to for a very long time. Bark in the window melted. Bag with cookies looked like French fries were in there grease was so much! Had to ask for champagne truffles not in the case…

So where do I start, the grand cru was like no other. You can taste the dark chocolate and red wine on your palate. The ménage a trois was also super decadent. The cappucino tasted like a cup of rich coffe in a bite size taste. And chocolate mint tea was also like no other chocolate I have tried amazing decadent and tea infused. If you love chocolate you will not be disappointed.

They had lots of samples and goodies to try — I opted for a small cup of their spicy hot chocolate. Wow! It was so thick as they say in the old west, you could throw a horseshoe in it, and it would stand up.
Many goodies to be had, many levels of dark chocolate (dark milk chocolate, 70%, and I’ve-died-and-gone-to-heaven 80%) Bought a bunch of stuff but still want to try their ginger chocolate bars. Will return, many times.

The new Jacques Torres on Lafayette serves up the same solid product in a pretty diminutive space (this strip if Lafayette offers oddly shaped parcels). Staff is friendly enough (they’re typically more chipper during the first week, but alright), so go grab a spicy hot chocolate before spring arrives, ya dig?
