1657 Chocolate House

The 1657 Chocolate House is believed to have been built in the 1630's originally as a private home in Kendal. Long before it became a Lake District tourist attraction, the Chocolate House was a bakery as well as an antiques shop, travel agent and ladies fashion shop. The Chocolate House has been trading for over 30 years!! The Chocolate Shop is on the ground floor. You will be amazed with all the chocolate. Most of our Chocolate is hand made, which is sourced locally and around the UK, and as far as Belgium. We will help you with your purchase, so you have the best chocolate experience. If you do have any special dietary requirements please just ask. The Tea room is on the middle floor, it's very small, low ceilings, uneven floorboards, very quirky. We can only accommodate 14 people at one time. Our menu offers a huge range of handmade cakes and gateaux. Top floor, has chocolate broads explaining how Chocolate is made. We look forward to seeing you soon.
