Chocolate cocktails in London sound wrong. They don’t. This is a rare, grown-up bar concept: London’s Chocolate Cocktail Club is built around chocolate drinks, from classic cocktail flavors to creative chocolate mixes.

I like two things right away. First, the menu goes beyond a one-note gimmick, with 20+ chocolate cocktails featuring flavors like mint, salt caramel, and Toblerone. Second, you’re not locked into chocolate only—there are traditional cocktails, plus wine, beer, hot chocolate, coffee, and mocktails for the non-chocolate crowd.

One catch to note before you book: every ticket includes a fixed arrival drink (a Chocotini) rather than letting you pick your first cocktail. If you hate surprises or are very selective, plan your orders around that.

Key highlights worth planning for

• UK’s only Chocolate Cocktail Bar: a focused theme, not a casual afterthought
• 20+ chocolate cocktails: includes mint, salt caramel, and Toblerone
• Included Chocotini on arrival: your first drink is chosen for you
• Edible chocolate shots + desserts and light bites: sweet extras beyond cocktails
• Over-18 venue with a small group of 10: more relaxed than a huge crowd scene

Why This Chocolate Cocktail Bar Feels Different Than a Usual Night Out

If your idea of a good bar stop is something fun but still adult, this works. The whole place is organized around chocolate cocktails, so the experience feels intentional. You’re not hunting for one odd drink on a normal menu. The theme is the menu.

I also like that it’s not pretending chocolate is the only flavor that exists. Even with the focus on chocolate, you can order wine, beer, prosecco, traditional cocktails, coffee, and mocktails. That means you can go as a couple or with friends where tastes don’t match perfectly. One person goes chocolate-heavy, another can steer toward something more familiar.

The small-group limit matters too. You’re capped at 10 participants, so it’s less chaotic than a walk-in bar on a weekend evening. It’s still a bar, meaning you’ll be ordering drinks and hanging out—but the format is designed to keep things manageable.

Price and Value: The Included Chocotini Changes the Math

Pricing is set at $14 per person for a 1-day experience, and your ticket includes a Chocotini cocktail on arrival. That included drink is the main value anchor. If you were going to order at least one cocktail anyway, this ticket turns into a convenient way to start with something guaranteed.

But here’s the practical thought: you’ll likely spend more once you’re in front of a chocolate cocktail menu. The experience also includes light bites and desserts on the menu (not automatically included as a package), and you can add additional drinks at your own pace. So the ticket price is only part of the story.

One booking concern shows up in the mix: at least one person felt the ticket price didn’t feel cheaper than ordering directly at the bar. I can’t verify exact bar-by-bar pricing from your ticket alone, but you can protect yourself with one simple move: decide what you want beyond the included drink. If you’re only staying for the Chocotini, you’ll get what you paid for. If you plan on several cocktails, pencil that into your budget and compare the total, not just the ticket.

When to Go: Days and Time Slots That Actually Matter

This runs on specific weekdays, not every day. According to the schedule, it’s available:

• Tuesday 1:30pm–5:30pm
• Wednesday 4:30pm–10:00pm
• Thursday 4:30pm–10:00pm
• Friday 1:30pm–10:00pm

It’s not available on Saturdays.

Those start times matter because they change the vibe. Earlier sessions are more “treat yourself and relax.” The later sessions are more “full evening bar energy.” If you’re trying to keep the night light, pick an afternoon slot. If you want it to anchor your evening, go for a Wednesday or Thursday start.

Arrival Plan: What You Can Expect in the First Minutes

The meeting point is simply The Chocolate Cocktail Club. Once you arrive, you’ll get your included cocktail: the Chocotini.

This is the part where expectations can trip you up. Your first drink isn’t something you choose at check-in. It’s included, and it’s fixed. After that, you’re free to explore the rest of the menu at your own pace.

What I like about starting with the included cocktail is momentum. You don’t stand there debating while everyone else decides. You sip, you get oriented, and then you use the menu time for the real decisions: which chocolate flavors do you want next, and what do you pair with them?

The Menu: 20+ Chocolate Cocktails (Plus Real Options If You’re Not in a Chocolate Mood)

The headline is right there: you’ll find over 20 chocolate cocktails. Flavors you can expect to see include mint, salt caramel, and the newer Toblerone creation. That’s helpful because it tells you this isn’t just cocoa water with sugar—it’s building on recognizable flavor profiles.

Here’s how to think about ordering when the whole menu is chocolate-forward:

• If you like chocolate but hate heavy sweetness, look for choices with contrast flavors (mint is a classic palate-cleanser).
• If you love dessert flavors, salt caramel and Toblerone-style drinks lean more toward that candy-bar vibe.
• If you’re going with friends who don’t want chocolate all night, you can still build a great order using traditional cocktails, wine, beer, prosecco, mocktails, hot chocolate, and coffee.

That last part is underrated. The experience says it’s friendly to people who don’t love chocolate, and the menu supports that. In practice, that means you can avoid the awkward moment where everyone has to agree on one person’s favorite theme.

Also, the bar serves more than just cocktails. There’s beer, wine, prosecco, and mocktails, which makes it easier to match your mood, especially if you’re pacing yourself.

Edible Chocolate Shots and Sweet Extras: What Makes It Feel Like More Than Drinks

Chocolate cocktails alone would be enough for a lot of people, but this place also points you toward sweet add-ons. You can look for:

• Edible chocolate shots
• Desserts and light bites

This is where the experience starts to feel like a full themed night rather than a single drink stop. Edible chocolate shots are the kind of thing you only do when the venue is built for it. They add variety and give you something to break up the ordering rhythm.

And because there are light bites and desserts available, you can shift the night from “just sipping” to “snack and sip.” That’s useful if you’re doing this as an evening activity and you want to stay comfortable instead of relying on cocktails alone.

Traditional Cocktails, Wine, Beer, Mocktails: A Theme With Options

Sometimes themed bars end up feeling narrow. This one doesn’t. Even with the chocolate centerpiece, you still have plenty of non-chocolate drink routes.

If you’re not into chocolate drinks, you can still do well here. The menu includes bottled beer, wine, prosecco, hot chocolate, coffee, and mocktails. That means the group can stay together without someone stuck with the same drink they could’ve ordered anywhere else.

This is especially handy if you’re choosing the bar as a shared event—birthdays, hen do’s, and anniversaries are welcome. That’s not just marketing language; it’s a setup where people can celebrate even if they don’t all want chocolate-forward flavors.

Small Group Size (10 Max): Why It Changes Your Experience

You’re limited to 10 participants, so the room won’t feel like a cattle call. The tone is more social and easy to manage, with more space to browse the menu and ask questions.

In a venue built around a theme, browsing is part of the fun. You need time to read the drink lineup and decide what sounds good. A smaller group helps you take that at a relaxed pace.

Also, over-18 only changes the atmosphere. Adults-only venues tend to feel more straightforward. No child-related logistics, no family pacing, fewer interruptions. It’s built for evenings out.

Who This Is Best For (And Who Might Skip It)

This is ideal if you:

• Want a fun, themed chocolate cocktail bar London experience
• Enjoy dessert flavors and want to try something unusual
• Are going as a group where people might want different alcohol (beer, wine, prosecco, mocktails, traditional cocktails)
• Like the idea of sweet extras like edible chocolate shots

It may not be for you if:

• You don’t like chocolate at all (even though there are non-chocolate options, the venue theme stays chocolate-centric)
• You dislike fixed inclusions and would rather choose every drink yourself, since the included arrival cocktail is set as a Chocotini
• You’re extremely price-sensitive and want to compare ticket value versus ordering à la carte without thinking about your total spend

Practical Stuff You Should Know Before You Go

Bring a passport or an ID card. That’s required. Also, pets aren’t allowed, though assistance dogs are permitted. The venue is over 18, so it’s not suitable for children under 18.

The experience is straightforward in format: it’s a bar experience with a included arrival cocktail, plus menu options for additional drinks, light bites, desserts, and edible chocolate shots.

One last practical note: since there’s a fixed included drink on arrival, it helps to have your second-choice in mind. Once you settle in, you’ll be happier ordering what you actually want next.

Should You Book This Chocolate Cocktail Club in London?

I’d book it if you want a playful, adult-friendly themed night where chocolate is the star—but you still have real options if your group’s tastes vary. The included Chocotini lowers the decision pressure on arrival, and the menu signals actual variety, not just one or two novelty drinks.

I’d think twice if you’re very budget-focused or you strongly dislike the idea that your first cocktail is predetermined. Since most of the value depends on what you order next, it makes sense to decide in advance how adventurous you want to be beyond the included drink.

If you’re the kind of person who enjoys a dessert-style cocktail and wants something different from the usual London pub plan, this is a smart pick on the days it runs.
