Brighton & Hove


Even if you’re not hungry or thirsty, this incredible chocolate emporium, painted blood red inside and out, is a must-see. The downstairs is packed with outrageous Belgian chocolate creations, fake rococo mirrors, sprays of artificial flowers and tassled lampshades. Head upstairs to the small cafe where every single item on sale contains chocolate. Madly popular so be prepared to queue.
