Ooey Gooey Good! Here Is A List Of The Best Hot Chocolate In Hyderabad

Feranoz is one of those places Hyderabad’s dessert lovers swear by, and when it comes to hot chocolate, it truly hits the spot. With its patisserie-style vibe, Feranoz is decked up in Christmas decor at the moment, making it perfect for those serious hot chocolate cravings. Speaking of, their Belgian Hot Chocolate is the star. It’s thick and rich, and the chocolate is intense without being too sweet (just how we like it). Steal our order and pair it with a slice of Honey Almond Frangipane Cake for a nutty taste, or choose from their other signature pastries, bakes, and cakes. We see the cheesecakes making rounds, too.

There's a Churrolto in almost every hub, so getting a hot chocolate fix won't be a problem. This churro-famous cafe offers a calm space, comfort, and different types of hot chocolate, and you will find people working on their laptops having long meals with beverages to wash it all off. And if a late-night cocoa run is on your mind, just tell them what you are in the mood for — Spanish hot chocolate or Irish hot chocolate (with Baileys). You'll promptly get one made with the finest ingredients, in a to-go cup.

You really cannot go wrong with the hot chocolate at Conçu. They offer a classic version that's best for cold winter noons (summer is almost here, but don't shy away from sipping on it) and another one with marshmallows generously dunked. Whatever you choose, it's a chocolatey affair!

We started visiting Prezmo for its bagels, but the hot chocolate took us by surprise during these winter evenings. It’s smooth, comforting, and decadent with an option to add roasted marshmallows. We also tried the hot chocolate with oat milk, and it still tasted fabulous. The place is green and spacious, with plenty of sunlight during the day and lots of breeze after the sun sets. With twinkling lights all over, this would be the right time to have your first visit ( in case you’ve not been here). Pair it with their Butter Croissant and thank us later.

Subko is, first and foremost, a coffee place, but one that also happens to do really good hot chocolate. And it so happens this spot is tucked inside Knowledge City, one of the best places to be during the Christmas season. Their drinking chocolate menu goes beyond the expected, with flavours like Salted Caramel, Peppermint, Lavender, and Podi (classic Subko style, bold and distinctly desi). Now, these aren’t drinks you gulp down. They’re meant to be sipped slowly and appreciated. You can also ask the folks there for a classic hot chocolate made with Subko’s craft chocolate, 70% dark or 45% classic milk chocolates. Just yum!

Do not mistake Manam for a regular cafe. It’s a chocolate lover’s dream right in the heart of Banjara Hills. Part chocolate factory, part eatery, this place celebrated Indian cacao from bean to bar, and yes, the love for chocolate extends into their drinks too. In their hot chocolate lineup, you will find versions with sea salt, Mexican spices, hazelnut praline, and brown butter salted – each one rich, layered, and perfect for the chilly December Xmas nights. Have this as dessert after a good meal or just by itself; you can’t go wrong with any variant.

Sobremesa is one of Hyderabad’s prettiest bakery-cafes, and even more so during the Christmas season – warm string lights, greenery, and cute corners. It’s a go-to for freshly baked Babkas, cheesecakes, pastries, and their seasonal desserts, and that goes exceptionally well with the hot chocolate. Along with the classic hot chocolate, they also occasionally serve playful twists like an Espresso Raspberry Hot Chocolate and even a Chilli Hot Chocolate for a warm, spicy kick. We think this makes a good challenge for your adventurous friend.

Pro-tip: Sobremesa is pet-friendly, and so are these other cafes.

PS Cheese Cafe is way more than just cheese and sandwiches, though those alone could keep you happy for hours. Popular for in-house cheese creations, when winter hits, and you want something warm to wrap up a good lunch or dinner with good company, their Hot Chocolate shows up right then. It’s classic, comforting, and just sweet enough to feel like a treat without being OTT. Ditch the fudgy brownie and try this for a change.

Brunch, coffee, chill vibes – and yes, a proper hot chocolate fix. Karafa is one of those cafes that is very easy to plan for. It fits spontaneous short meet-ups and long catch-ups. Their signature hot chocolate is the classic recipe that doesn’t go wrong, while the Espresso Hot Chocolate is for when you want a little coffee with your cocoa. On days when you have back-to-back plans, don’t underestimate how well the coffee buzz just works with rich chocolate.

Big space, full tables, and the smell of coffee all around – Roast CCX is a no-brainer for a great time with curated eats. What we also love here is the hot chocolate, on the days we need a caffeine break. Their classic version is smooth, comforting, and velvety, but you also go for the White Chocolate Pistachio and Tennessee Dark Chocolate. Our pick is the dark chocolate version, and it goes great with their seasonal strawberry menu, especially white chocolate-coated strawberries.

You might walk in for gelatos, maybe even for pizzas or pastas, depending on your mood, but here’s a thought – skip the obvious just once and end your order with hot cocoa. Nothing experimental, but just the good old, fool-proof recipe, we’d describe it as melted chocolate in a cup, the kind that directly pleases the soul. Plus, the Christmas tree and the twinkling lights suit well for a winter night with a hot cup.

To us, Lilies feels like stepping into a Pinterest corner, with its earthy tones, woven textures, and sunlight spilling in just right. The boho decor does most of the talking here; it’s relaxed, artsy, and slightly dreamy. Now imagine having hot chocolate here on a winter night with wreaths and jungle bell decor, adding scenery to your time there. If not the classic hot chocolate, make sure you try the Strawberry Hot Chocolate and the Tiramisu Hot Chocolate, which is making all the noise among local foodies. If you have a sweet tooth (we’re guilty, too), you will love the strawberry one.
