Butlers Chocolate Cafe

Must not miss this spot. Great chocolate and hot cocoa. Grab some boxed ones or from the display case. Everything is raving great.

OMG this place still tops my list of the best hot chocolate I've ever had!!! Butler's is a chain that you can find all over Ireland but this is the first Butler's location that we visited. I was completely hooked after coming here.

When you walk into the shop it literally looks magical, as if you stepped into a section of Willy Wonka's chocolate factory. The Whimsical chocolate creations and gold accents really excites your senses.

With every hot chocolate you get a complimentary truffle. This is probably the hardest decision you will have. I of course was immediately drawn to the champagne truffle and it paired nicely with my Butler's classic hot chocolate. The hot chocolate taste of fine chocolate melted down into your cup. It is pure Heaven. There are many items you can order but you must try the hot chocolate here.

You of course have all of the Truffle options and there are plenty of boxed chocolates to choose from. They even sell meltable chocolates to bring home to make your own hot chocolate or to give as a souvenir.

I'm obsessed with this hot chocolate and couldn't imagine a trip to Ireland without one. This is definitely a must try during your trip!

We went there last March and it has wonderful chocolates!! They are so good and the staff are very helpful and make really good suggestions. I had the pink hot chocolate and it was so good!! I've never had anything like it before and have tried to get it back in the US after we got back and can't find it anywhere!! Just an FYI,Butler's only carries it for a short period of time in the winter,it's a limited time item. Will order their chocolates via internet in the future.

Right now I am caught in a moral dilemma - do I give out the last of my precious Butler's Chocolates to my favorite Aunt to whom they are promised?

Or do I just play the fool the next time I see her and claim that I don't remember anything about giving her any stinking chocolates?

I think I'm just going to have to work on a puzzled expression because I want my Butler's Chocolates!

Chun P. and I had the best dark hot chocolates of our LIVES at this location! The chocolate cake was a little bit dry though, but it was near closing time and may have been exposed to air for a while. The service was friendly - but the CHOCOLATES! WOWEE WOW!

Good God! Butler's gives Christopher Elbow and Fran's a run for their money! We bought about a dozen of the Irish Whiskey Truffle Bars - and the Irish Coffee Truffle Bars. There were a few others thrown in there too. I believe they were around 1.75 Euro - a bit pricey - but DEFINITELY worth it! The quality, smoothness and richness of the chocolate was the perfect balance!

Sorry Auntie! ALL MINE!

Happy, happy, happy tummy!

Needed an afternoon pick-me-up while strolling Grafton Street. Had planned on getting a coffee from Bewley's Cafe, but they had temporarily moved. No matter, the combo of chocolate & coffee was soooo much better.

Because it was the afternoon, many people had the same idea and there was no seating left inside. So I stepped up and ordered a coffee to go.

Had a Cappuccino and it was very good. HOWEVER, you get a free chocolate w/your coffee. I grabbed a milk chocolate caramel and it was Delicious. FYI, these are handmade Irish chocolates from the original Mrs. Bailey-Butler's recipe of 1932.

Would love to try more...

Used to live around the corner from this cafe so have an extra grá for it. First place where I actually used a loyalty card and got free coffees for my unyielding loyalty haha.
Oh, and nothing beats that little thrill of picking out which free chocolate that I will get with my latte today :)

This one is closish to the Library. I came here to get some hot chocolate to go since I was hearing a lot about their hot chocolate from other people.

It was busy but the customer service was efficient.

We actually went to another location but this one was stocked with a lot of variety of chocolates.

This review is for the chocolate products only. Stopped here to purchase the Butlers Hot Chocolate and the Milk Chocolate honeycomb crunch bar. After traveling back to the States, I decided to make my hot chocolate. I found it thin in taste, but I think that is because I used fat-free milk than whole milk as instructed. Next time I will follow the recipe to the "T".

The milk chocolate honeycomb bar was so awesome. Crunchy and sweet with a flavor of chocolate running through my entire mouth. Sinful, I had to be careful, I would have eaten it all in one sitting. Now I must go back to the church of exercise to repent my sin.

This is comparable to a Godiva store but the chocolate quality is not as high. It's an ideal place to pick up some last minute gifts before heading back home. I mean who the heck doesn't like chocolate...right? I did have a couple of pieces as a reward to myself for walking around Dublin all day. You can tell it's very fresh and there are so many varieties to choose from. They also have hot chocolate and use real melted chocolate...
Stop by to pick up some for family or friends or even for yourself. =)

Although a chain, this chocolate shop makes yummy pieces of heaven.

Not only can you choose from rows and rows of perfectly made chocolates, you can also order it in liquid form. With Whip Cream. Real Whip Cream!
