Winner! This place leaves other 'chocolate cafes' for dead. Fresh, delicious Churro's and the spanish hot chocolate with espresso are my favourites!

I come here regularly for the Azteca (chilli hot chocolate). It's thick (coat the back of your spoon type thick) and creamy, spicy enough to warrant a short break between sips. Once you have this beverage, you'll struggle to down the watered down versions offered elsewhere.

The churro's come fresh from the fryer. Side sauces and the option of fruit is a plus. Friend of mine had their sundae and it was quite big. She struggled to finish it.

I come here at least once a month. The staff are always prompt to greet and offer assistance if you're unsure. They also sell a variety of chocolate products for you to gift or consume at home.

Don't be shy, give it a try. Parking can be a bit of a pain due to the location but you can always park at the local shopping centre and walk up.

Churros are very nice. Made fresh and arrives at the table nice and hot. Lovely with a scoop of icy, cold vanilla ice cream on the side. Gets very busy on saturday nights so be prepared to wait for a table. You order and pay at the counter and they bring the food to you. Service can be a tad slow on busy nights.

It was an chilly winter night (9 degrees outside) and we wanted to warm ourselves with churros and a nice hot chocolate. Unfortunately the staff kept the front doors wide open and refused to shut them, despite the fact everyone inside was shivering and keeping their winter coats on. The floor staff's reasoning was that they lose customers if the door is even half shut. It was a bit sad as the place has good churros so it's definitely not a spot to try over winter. Keep visits to the summer months. And as for the clientele? In Katy Perry's words, it's a teenage dream.

I ordered the bizcocho, and it came with more cream than cake (it certainly did not look like the pic), and I'm not a big fan of cream so I told the waitress and she was really nice about it and took it back to her senior staff. The senior staff refused to take it back, we watch the senior staff yell at the waitress and said that she was not going to fix it as it said 'with cream' on the board, so the senior staff sent it back to me. The whole experience was unpleasant and ruined the mood of our night. What happen to 'the customer is always right'?

What can we say? Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate and yes, more chocolate. Incidentally, the hot chocolate is very good, and the chocolate chips are excellent for a home made chocolate fondue.

The Churros are soooo good, perfect for dessert. Had them for the first time last night. I will definitely be coming back if I am in need for a sweet treat.

The most fabulous hot chocolate, creamy and luscious! Thick spanish flavour, my mouth is watering! Churros are delicious, 3 is more than enough for one person. Great for sweet treats!

It is expensive for nothing out of the ordinary hot chocolate and very average churros. The place is lacking staff and as a result, dirty tables are everywhere, and it takes a while to get your order delivered. Its more a novelty rather than a specialty shop. Wouldn't rush back in a hurry.
