Chocolate cocktails. Seriously, that’s the plan.

This experience is interesting because it’s the UK’s only chocolate cocktail bar, serving a menu with 20+ chocolate creations like mint, salt caramel, and even Toblerone. I especially like that you’re not arriving empty-handed: you get a Chocotini cocktail on arrival, so the night starts fast. One drawback to consider is that the first drink is included as part of the ticket, so you don’t get to pick that opening cocktail.

If you want a laid-back night out, the setup helps: it’s a small group limited to 10 people, so it feels more like hanging out at a themed bar than joining a crowd. You’ll also have plenty of choices beyond chocolate because the bar serves traditional cocktails, wine, bottled beer, prosecco, mocktails, plus hot chocolate and coffee. Do note it’s an over-18s venue, and you’ll want to bring ID.

Key things to know before you go

• A UK-only theme: chocolate cocktails are the entire point of the bar
• Chocotini on arrival: you start with a ready-made cocktail, not just a menu
• 20+ chocolate drinks: flavors range from classic-sweet to more playful combos like Toblerone
• Not-for-chocolate diners are covered: mocktails, hot drinks, wine, beer, and traditional cocktails
• Limited seats: small group size means you’ll get more breathing room at the bar
• No Saturdays: plan for Tue–Fri time slots

London’s Chocolate Cocktail Club: the sweet idea that actually works

London is full of clever bars, but this one has a single, stubborn mission: chocolate cocktails. And the best part is that it doesn’t feel like a gimmick with a one-note menu. You’re looking at 20+ chocolate cocktails, plus regular drink options for anyone who doesn’t want their entire night to taste like dessert.

I like the straightforward vibe here. You show up, you get your included cocktail, and then you build the rest of the evening from the menu. That matters, because if you’re on a tight trip schedule, you want a plan that doesn’t depend on extra restaurant searching or complicated reservations.

Another plus is that the place is clearly set up for social moments. Birthdays, hen dos, and anniversaries are welcome, so the atmosphere is designed for celebrating, not quietly sipping water and pretending you’re not having fun.

Getting your timing right: Tuesday to Friday, and no Saturday

This isn’t a “drop in anytime” venue. It has specific windows, and those windows shape how you’ll experience it.

Here are the available times:

• Tuesday: 1:30pm to 5:30pm
• Wednesday: 4:30pm to 10:00pm
• Thursday: 4:30pm to 10:00pm
• Friday: 1:30pm to 10:00pm
• Saturday: not available

For your planning, pick your time based on your mood. The earlier slot on Tuesday or Friday can be a fun pre-dinner activity, especially if you want an excuse to try something unusual without turning it into a late-night event. The later Wednesday/Thursday/Friday windows are better if you want to settle in and try multiple drinks slowly.

Also, the meeting point is simply the Chocolate Cocktail Club itself, so you don’t have to puzzle out a separate museum entrance or confusing pickup location. Just arrive at the venue.

What happens when you arrive: Chocotini and how the evening is paced

Your ticket includes one key thing: a Chocotini cocktail on arrival. That’s a big deal for value and pacing. Instead of spending your first 20 minutes deciding what to order while everyone waits, you get a drink right away and can start tasting the theme.

From there, you’ll do the main activity of the night: browsing the menu and ordering based on what you’re craving. The menu includes:

• chocolate cocktails
• traditional cocktails
• wine and beer
• plus desserts and light bites
• and edible chocolate shots

That last detail matters. If you’ve ever tried chocolate-themed drinks that were all sweetness and no texture, you’ll appreciate having an option that leans into the edible part of the experience. Shots can also help you test flavors quickly before you commit to a full cocktail.

One practical consideration: because your first drink is included, the biggest choice you’ll be making is what you order next. If you’re the kind of person who wants to pick every single drink from the start, plan for the fact that your opening cocktail is already decided.

The chocolate cocktail menu: mint, salt caramel, Toblerone, and more

The menu is built around variety, not just sugar. You can expect flavors like:

• mint
• salt caramel
• Toblerone (including that brand-new Toblerone mention)
• plus many other chocolatey creations

This is where the bar earns its nickname as a “sweet” place to sip. Chocolate cocktails can go one of two ways: either they taste like dessert with a garnish, or they taste like a proper cocktail with chocolate flavor layered in. The point of having a whole menu of chocolate cocktails is that you should get enough options to find the style you like.

Here’s a smart way to order if you want to avoid decision fatigue:

• Start with something that sounds closest to a dessert you already like (caramel, mint, or chocolate-forward).
• After that, move toward the more playful flavors to see how far the bar takes the theme.
• If you see edible chocolate shots on the menu, use them as “flavor samplers.”

If you’re hoping for a single perfect drink, take your time. Chocolate flavors shift fast depending on whether the drink is more minty, more nutty, or more caramel-like, and you’ll get more enjoyment when you let each choice land before jumping to the next.

When you want a break from chocolate: wine, beer, mocktails, and hot drinks

Not everyone at your table will want to go all-in on chocolate. Good news: this bar doesn’t force chocolate onto the menu-only crowd.

You’ll find non-chocolate options like:

• traditional cocktails
• wine and beer
• prosecco
• mocktails
• hot chocolate and coffee

So if you’re bringing a friend who worries they’ll feel sickly-sweet after one drink, they have alternatives that still fit the theme of a fun night out. It also helps if you’re not a big alcohol drinker. Mocktails and hot drinks give you a way to participate without feeling left out.

In other words, you can treat this as a themed bar experience even if your taste runs more “balanced” than “dessert-first.”

Food, desserts, and shot strategy so you don’t overdo it

The Chocolate Cocktail Club doesn’t just do drinks. You can also peruse the menu for light bites and desserts, plus edible chocolate shots.

That’s useful because chocolate cocktails can be sweet and heavy. If you’re ordering multiple drinks in one sitting, having food available helps you keep it enjoyable instead of sticky-sweet.

My tip: treat it like a tasting evening, not a single-cocktail sprint. Pick one chocolate-forward cocktail, then one supporting choice (either another chocolate variant that’s different, or a traditional cocktail/wine/beer to balance the sweetness). If you do chocolate shots, keep them to one round and use them as the fun “experiment,” not as the main course.

Also, if you’re going to celebrate—birthdays, hen do’s, anniversaries—food and desserts make the night feel complete. This is the kind of place where a party vibe makes sense because it’s designed for it.

Price and value: what $14 gets you, and what it doesn’t

The price listed is $14 per person for this 1-day experience.

Here’s the value math in plain terms:

• Included: one Chocotini on arrival
• Not included: additional drinks (and anything else you order)

So you’re paying for the themed start to the experience, not for a whole evening of unlimited cocktails. That’s fine if you plan like a taster. Order thoughtfully and you can end up with a satisfying lineup without feeling like you paid for a buffet of alcohol you didn’t want.

One note from actual customer sentiment: there’s some confusion and disappointment when people feel the cost doesn’t match what they expect to pay at the bar itself. The clean way to protect yourself is to treat the $14 as the ticket for the opening cocktail, then budget for any extra drinks and bites you decide to add.

If you’re the type who wants multiple cocktails no matter what, you’ll probably spend more than the ticket price. If you want one included drink plus one or two choices, the ticket price can feel fair.

Over-18 rules, ID, and the practical stuff that keeps your night smooth

This is an over-18s venue. That’s not a small detail. It changes the whole vibe and also affects how you should prepare.

Bring:

• passport or ID card

And remember:

• Pets aren’t allowed, though assistance dogs are allowed.
• It’s not suitable for children under 18.

If you’re coming in a group for a birthday or celebration, the ID rule matters most on arrival. Make sure everyone has something valid so the fun starts on time.

Who should book this chocolate cocktail experience in London?

This is a strong match if you:

• want a themed London night that’s easy to understand and book
• love chocolate flavors and want to try a bunch of variations in one place
• are going with friends who want a fun, social atmosphere in a small group
• want options beyond alcohol, since mocktails and hot drinks are available

It may not be your best choice if:

• you want a fully self-directed tasting where you pick every drink from the start (your opening cocktail is included as Chocotini)
• you don’t like chocolate at all (there are non-chocolate options, but the bar is still built around chocolate cocktails)
• you’re only visiting on Saturday (the venue isn’t available that day)

Think of it as a chocolate-forward cocktail stop, with enough balance options to keep a mixed group happy.

Should you book London’s Chocolate Cocktail Club?

Yes, if you want a playful, adult-only themed bar experience with a simple start and plenty of drink variety. The small group size helps it feel less chaotic, and the included Chocotini lowers the risk: you’re guaranteed your first cocktail as part of the ticket.

Book with a strategy:

• Choose a time slot that fits your energy (early for pre-dinner, later for a longer sit).
• Budget for additional drinks, since only the Chocotini is included.
• Plan around the fact that you don’t choose the opening drink.

If chocolate is your thing—or you’re traveling with someone who’s a chocolate person—this is one of the most direct ways to turn that craving into a full evening in London.
