Colocal Chocolates

Not sure how any of us could go to a chocolate factory and cafe, and expect anything less than an incredibly rich hot chocolate.

We recommend the Campfire Hot Chocolate with toasted marshmallows that melt into the hot chocolate, everything sweet dreams are made of.

Be it to work silently, have a mini gos-sesh with friends or just to grab a snack, Blue Tokai’s hot chocolate is going to be your best companion. It’s so good that I usually end up ordering another cup. We love their outdoor seating area (depending on the outlet you visit), pretty lights, light music, good times! Just visit once, you’ll see what I’m talking about.

Di Ghent Cafe

The Grammar Room

As loyal Grammar Roomies, it would be a crime not to include our favourite winter spot on this list. Talking about their hot chocolate, the classic TGR Hot Chocolate is a delightful concoction, slow-made using Callebaut chocolate, elevated with orange zest, and topped with house-made marshmallows and truly feels like a 'hug in a mug'. If you are looking for something a bit more spirited (literally), try the Bourbon Spiked Hot Chocolate that combines the classic recipe of TGR Hot Chocolate with a generous splash of bourbon. Additionally, for vegans, they have the Nutty Hot Chocolate, crafted from rich hazelnut ganache, almond milk, and Callebaut chocolate finished with ground nutmeg.

LBB Tip: Their hot chocolate is available at all three outlets in Mehrauli, Khan Market and Gurugram.

Price: Starting at INR 425

Music & Mountains

Our beloved Music & Mountains Cafe has us feeling cosy every time we step in; from the woody decor to the dim lights and the fireplace, it’s like a snug home in the hills. Add the Home-Made Dark Hot Chocolate with cinnamon and a good book to that, and you’re all sorted for a beautiful evening.
