Drizzle Chocolate in Cotswold

Nice cup of tea - Shame dirty cups and fork

No ice on a hot day ?? No iced coffee. Had a flat white - it was good. Lemon drizzle cake very stale .

Quaint little chocolate shop and cafe, serving delicious hot chocolate, warm drinks and cakes amd offering various chocolate delights for visitors in need of a little 'pick me up'.Especially recommended as service is personable and the owner made our day. We entered just as the shop was closing in a cold and rainy August day. The owner was locking the doors and putting signs away, getting ready to close for the day. After he saw the look of disappointment on our faces, he graciously offered to accommodate us, literally opening the place only for us. Lovely gesture, great service and would encourage locals and visitors to support this local independent shop.

Chocolate & ice cream is not is not great quality and very expensive. Definitely would not recommend. You’re better off going to Cote up the street for better and cheaper desserts! Service is poor too!

My friend and myself visited the shop whilst on a visit. The owner was a lovely gentleman and very helpful. A beautiful shop full of yummy chocolates 😋

We have now been promised a refund for our fudge purchase due to an oversight.

Popped in here to buy an Easter Egg when passing and what a find! The service was outstanding, really friendly lady who couldnt have done enough to help and the dark chocolate egg with chocolates inside was the nicest we've ever had. Would definitely recommend and we will be back to try more!

Had a lovely coffee followed by a gorgeous salted caramel ice-cream. A top treat on Easter Sunday whilst on a sunny afternoon out in Cirencester.. If you are a chocoholic don't pass this place by, their truffles are to die for.. We will most definitely be calling in again the next time we are in town.

Fantastic chocolatier, perfect for chocolate gifts (or treats for yourself!). Also great for a sit down coffee, hot chocolate or ice cream. Staff are lovely and polite. I dropped in recently for a gift and the assistant was so helpful and wrapped my items beautifully. Definitely one of my favourite shops in Ciren!

Simple chocolate themed cafe in Black Jack Street, Cirencester which is the cafe capital of the town. Now I'm not a big chocolate fan, well not chocolate bars anyway, but as we'd got a voucher from over two years ago we decided to visit and have a hot chocolate or milkshake plus a chocolate brownie. We both decided, as it was a warm summer's day to have milkshakes, I had a strawberry 🍓 shake whilst Mrs G opted for raspberry, which are made with Marshfields ice cream. Very nice. We then had the brownie accompanied by a ball each of Marshfields vanilla. So not being a particular brownie or chocolate van I was pleasantly surprised, the brownie was excellent. Drizzle Chocolate is a nice little cafe to sit and watch the world go by for half an hour or more, to enjoy a milkshake and the excellent chocolate brownie 😋

I was in Cirencester and bought a Marshfield ice cream from Drizzle Chocolate that was delicious. Unfortunately, the ice cream fell from my cornet as I sat down at a table in the alley way outside of the shop. Clumsy me! But the reaction from the staff was exceptional. The young lady that had served me had noticed my plight and came out of the shop insisting on replacing my ice cream free of charge. I doubt that any other shop's staff would have noticed let alone acted in such a supportive way. To those involved, I express my sincere thanks.

A superb little watering hole away from the square with just enough view, delicious coffee and cakes and charming young ladies looking after us.

This is one of my favourite cafes in Cirencester. I love sitting in the alley surrounded by Cotswold stone. The coffee is great quality and the service is excellent. It’s also a chocolate shop and one of the few places in town that does ice cream cones.

Gorgeous cake chocolate and lemon drizzle cake. Very friendly staff. Strawberry milkshake was nice but could've done with a bit more strawberry flavour - maybe a strawberry or two thrown onto the mix. Nice place to sit and watch the world go by.

We greatly anticipated the arrival of our milkshakes. We expected a lovely thick milkshake. What arrived can only be described as bit of thin milk with a bit of flavouring. Very disappointed and can see other reviewers have made similar observations.

We enjoyed a milkshake here brownie and truffles absolutely delicious and the truffles are to die for!! Lady serving us was absolutely lovely. Highly recommended.

My husband and I dropped on this place whilst wondering around Cirencester. We only had drinks which were served with complimentary chocolate truffles. We had a coffee and a hot chocolate and both were gorgeous, as were the truffles. Only a small place but has seating outside and the chocolate display was so inviting. Above all this the lady who runs the cafe was so lovely and friendly and found time to come and chat with us. Well worth a visit.

Lovely coffee and very friendly staff.

Ordered two milkshakes that were supposed to be made from ice cream. Unable to taste any ice cream with the milkshake having a consistency of milk, wouldn't recommend.

Had hot chocolate but needed more chocolate. More milky than chocolaty

The proprietor was friendly and efficient. He also has an excellent knowledge of the products he sells. His enthusiasm was infectious and tempted one to try just ... one ... more ... chocolate!

FREE sample chocolates given! French style chocolatier, with coffee/hot drinks and cakes. Not hot food yet. Perfect stop off for hot drinks. Very friendly owner, chatty and very helpful. Independent shop - go here not C*ff**#1 or C**ta. Bike friendly. Space under cover outside for bikes, near outside seating. Asked if we wanted bidons filled GF aware, but no specific menu. Owner will advise on GF content.

Small chocolate shop, we stopped in for hot chocolate. It was delicious, nice quick service. Also very pleasant. Melted chocolate and warm milk equals some the best hot chocolate. If your close by, I would say try this.

I found this little cafe and chocolate shop to be very friendly. They serve great hot chocolate, made from real chocolate, and will make it to your taste. I had lemon drizzle cake, which was very nice and the handmade truffles are really excellent.

I visited Drizzle with my family today and all I can say is not only was the hot chocolate my wife had incredible, the lemon drizzle, delicious, and my milkshake, better than them all. The service the gentleman who served us gave was UNBELIEVABLE. Our 15 month old was causing havoc, no trouble what so ever, can we bring our dog? They even sell doggy ice cream (I didn't try it!) . He went out of his way to make us feel special and he succeeded. Yes, there are bigger more established coffee shops, but for a fantastic experience, go to Drizzle.

We stopped in to buy an icecream on Saturday 14 September and were ignored by staff because the younger lady was teaching the older lady staff member how to make coffee. We asked twice if the shop was open, and were told yes, but "I'm teaching her to make coffee". The coffee lesson then proceeded, but not before the staff exchanged a meaningful look when we disturbed them. We didn't disturb them any longer, and went to a much busier and more polite shop which sold us lovely icecream in a jiffy. The chocolatier was empty, by the way, in a busy shopping street.

My husband and I went to the shop and had hot chocolate which was delicious and I had carrot cake and my husband had lemon drizzle cake which was also delicious. The lady that served us was very pleasant and friendly . Would definitely recommend

Dog friendly, great coffee and cake, delicious chocolate, who could ask for more

We visited Dizzle Chocolate recently and enjoyed the hot chocolate and chocolate cake. The guy had run out of Brownie but the alternative was fresh and good. Unfortunately the shop was empty and actually looked a bit sad. There are so many excellent well established coffee shops in Cirencester that I can't see on his limited offering he can sustain the turnover to survive business rates and rents on a few chocolates drinks and ice creams. Looks a bit like a business dream that sadly didn't quite happen. I hope I'm wrong and he thrives. Time will tell.

The gentleman and lady that run the shop are always friendly and welcoming, and are really happy to help. A great shop, and the chocolate tastes amazing 🙂

Hands down the best la choc I've ever tasted. J'adore it.

Sabes que estás en una tienda de chocolates por el olor cuando entras. Aunque es pequeña, la tienda tiene algunas mesas y ofrece bebidas frías y calientes. El ambiente y la música son agradables, con un servicio amable y un increíble chocolate caliente (chocolate puro servido con leche caliente). Sin embargo, creo que es un error que las existencias de Navidad y las decoraciones ocupen la mayor parte de la pantalla sin señales de las ofertas del Día de San Valentín 2 semanas antes de la fecha.

Amazing customer service!! Bought from the US to deliver in UK. Super helpful, and great chocolate!

Friendly, and inviting. Lovely lady working today.

Excellent Lovely place Great service

Really looked forward to a lovely milkshake and brownie but recieved a substandard drink... grainy milk no flavour certainly no ice cream and what I can only describe as a poor version of tesco traybake! Very sad as often pass and always seems empty now I know why!

I got to the shop a little later than intended, literally a few mins from closing. Despite that she had started to tidy up ready for closing, the lady serving let me come in and browse the shop while she made me my milkshake. The milkshakes here are amazing! It's the only place I think I've seen in Cirencester that make milkshakes from biscuits, sweets, etc. I recommend the Kinder Bueno one! I shall definitely be coming back and next time will allow myself more time to browse properly because the chocolates looked very tasty. Would recommend!

Popped in here for a hot chocolate. It was the best hot chocolate I've ever had. Made using real chocolate. The selection of chocolates they have are also amazing. I was offered a truffle to try and they were just to die for. Will definitely be returning.

I went out of my way to visit this venue today. I wanted to enjoy a hot chocolate before buying some chocolates. I was told by the lady (who was busy on her mobile) that she stopped doing drinks because she was closing soon. I queried the closing time and she said 5pm but it was now 4.30pm so she stopped drinks. I politely left because the time was actually 4.20pm and I felt that my custom wasn't wanted. She didn't try to ask if I was interested in anything else. I won't be trying again.

Stopped for a coffee chocolate cake and chocolates. Very nice coffee and chocs but cake not so. Nice little slice of cake presented on a wet saucer with no paper napkin.

I was in Cirencester for work and wanted to buy my wife some chocolates for Valentines. There were chocolates in a display counter, I was asked if I’d like to try one, I did and it was delicious. The staff (who were friendly) then recommended a heart shaped preprepared box. When I got it home and we tried some I was really disappointed. The quality was much lower, no better than any other box of chocolates, I’d say worse than Hotel Chocolat (which I’m not saying is an especially high bar).

Marshfield Farm (local farm near Bath) ice cream from the "tap". A lot of special chocolates, sweets here. Might find here a nice/special souvenir in the form of chocolate etc. Even for vegans and such. Clean and quirky - outside seating (at least in summer)

Let's be clear, this is VERY good chocolate. You'll pay a premium but it is worth it. The hot chocolate is great and there's a mouth watering selection of cakes to rival Jacks.

Nice and cozy little place with an amazing range of chocolate! Recommended!

Stopped off with family of young children. The lady couldn't have been more helpful! Nothing too much trouble! Lots of patience waiting for the children to choose their ice creams. Coffee was lovely as well. Awesome service ! Sat outside on a lovely day!

Visited on a Groupon deal with my husband. The chap serving was very welcoming and helpful and seemed to be running things single handed.

This really is the place to go if you love Hot Chocolate . I pop in most weeks, always greeted by freindly staff and a clean table. Drizzle is one of Cirencesters little hidden treasures.

Coffee machine was being serviced when we arrived so I can only vouch for the tea and cake which were delicious.

Delicious ice cream and generous serving.

They have proper Italian small cappuccino...just ask for it :)

Visité Chocolate Llovizna tener una bebida de chocolate y algunos pastel de chocolate. Ambos eran excelentes.

Fuimos en una oferta de groupon para bebidas y un refresco. Los helados eran para los niños y les encantó. Tenían batidos que eran geniales. Tomamos café, que era, bueno, café. El café no tiene nada de especial, pero las trufas eran preciosas! ! ! ! Yum Yum, no es barato, pero es muy bonito

Servicio amable y atento. Como diabético, estar rodeado de golosinas de chocolate era un poco duro, pero el lugar tenía una gran personalidad. Menú de bebidas más cortas que nunca ver por un chocolate, cafetería, pero fuimos para café y tarta (para mi mejor, seguid soy diabético) este lugar cumplía los requisitos.

Nos repetirá este pequeño lugar hoy. Fuera estaba helada por elegimos chocolate caliente chili y pedí 'caliente' era rápidamente sirve y absolutamente deliciosa calentamiento super y el brillo se quedo por mucho tiempo después. Éramos los únicos clientes en el tiempo, por lo que el servicio fue excepcional, pero siempre es muy buena.

Llegó durante un viaje a429 en 5 de febrero, servido por un chico encantador y apasionado que hizo que la experiencia fuera mucho mejor. Lo recomendaría para un chocolate caliente.

Ohhhhhhhhh my giddy aunt these were some delicious beverages and chocolate items. I had quite the lovely moment tasting their cheeky chocolate drizzle!

Bit of a gem ... delicious hot chocolate

Lovely setting and fantastic ice-cream!

Like so many reviewers my friend and I were drawn in by a Groupon offer. I had no problem booking and understand this is needed as it's a small cafe. We were greeted by very pleasant man who was very helpful. He was managing the cafe on his own but this was no problem. There was limited choice of cake, for which he was apologetic but we found choosing truffles instead very exciting! Hot chocolate was good, we were asked how we would like the hot chocolate and he offered to reheat if needed, as we were busy chatting!We weren't rushed at all and enjoyed catching up whilst endulging in the chocolates.

We had a Groupon voucher for ice-cream Sundae for two. The first problem was that you have to phone and make a reservation (really?! For an ice-cream?) and were told we could go on that day, but could go the next day. Trouble is, we're only in Cirencester roughly one day per week (we baby sit our grandson),Next time we were due to visit Cirencester we phoned ... and phoned ... and phoned, and left messages ... eventually, after sending a rather sniffy e-mail we managed to get through and made our reservation. Then comes the problem of parking: not really Drizzle's fault, but it is in a tiny side street, and parking in Cirencester is a total nightmare (especially since they started digging up the parking area in the middle of town.And when we arrived it was rather a mystery as to why we had to make a reservation: it was totally empty.Anyway, we eventually got our sundaes, and I was allowed a coffee rather than a cold drink, and the young lady even gave us a free scoop of ice cream for our 19-month old grandson.But I would have thought that making a Groupon offer was a way to bring new clients in to your establishment to give them a good time so that they would come back. The sundaes were strictly average and the whole experience means we wouldn't go back, and would warn others, as well.

We saw ice cream floats advertised on the window and had to educate our teenage daughter. We were served straight away by a very friendly but busy young man, and it was clear he'd been rushed off his feet. He hadn't had time to clear tables so I brought dishes back for him which he apologised for. He brought our drinks after a while but we could see he did so as quickly as he could. Really think this place had lovely sweet treats to offer but could do with another member of staff to make it better.

Great service and good quality chocolate. What more could you ask.

Had a Groupon voucher for a sundae and a drink - the sundaes were lush and the drink just a small fruit juice (which was fine). The staff were helpful and pleasant and we would recommend this place to anyone.

We arrived early for our booking to use our groupon voucher, a friendly member of staff rearranged the tables for us so that the 4 of us could sit together. We had purchased a voucher for sundaes and cold drinks, however, it was a rather wet summers day today and the friendly staff member said he was happy for us to have hot chocolates and cake instead if we wanted to. Both my boys decided they would stick to sundaes, one had strawberry and one had chocolate brownie, they were both delicious. While they were eating their sundaes me and my other half both had a coffee which we accompanied with a chocolate brownie and a piece of walnut cake, the coffee (mine was a decaf) was lovely and so were the cakes. A lovely family treat which brightened a rainy day, I can see us going back

We used a Groupon voucher for hot chocolate and cake, but were advise on arrival that we could choose whatever drink we liked which was quite nice. The majority ordered chocolate tiffin as the cake which was heavenly. I personally ordered cake (which I have had previously at this venue and found delicious). Unfortunately this wasn't as fresh as I would have liked and the man serving me was incredibly apologetic and only too happy to offer me replacement tiffin. Upon leaving I was given complimentary chocolates to further apologise which was unexpected but a nice touch. The atmosphere is lacking somewhat, perhaps because it's such a small venue, but we all had a good time. Would go again.

We made a trip to Cirencester for the day and visited this lovely place.. The hot chocolate was amazing. It's not like your usual hot chocolate this is a proper hot chocolate! We also tried the lemon cake and chocolate cake. The lemon was lush the chocolate was too, but the Lemon was my favourite. One of the staff members told us the lady behind till makes them well done to her! The chocolates are a bit pricey so we didn't walk away with any sadly but I am sure there lovely to :) Only reason I gave a four star was because they didn't have a toilet and I had to walk to the museum.

Cherry dipped in chocolate. Hot chocolate a chocolate biscuits Charlie in the chocolate factory experience.

Took my son for a hot chocolate Groupon voucher Lovely Mint hot chocolate and sumptuous homemade cake Great funny staff Will be back!

Visited here recently as my husband wanted to try the hot chocolate with chilli and I am very glad we did. I had the hot chocolate with mint and they were both delicious. There was taster chocolate on the counter which was divine. The chocolate is a bit on the expensive side but then it is handmade, def worth a visit!

Very lovely staff! Excellent hot chocolate and some of the nicest chocolates we've tried! Would definitely recommend to a friend.

I recently bought my mother a mothers day gift for her and a friend to visit your shop. It looks lovely, has good reviews and my mother loves hot chocolate so it was the perfect present. I was extremely unhappy when I had a call from my mum who came to visit and was told that the staff were rude the hot chocolates were cold and were then put in the microwave making the cream go funny. She also said that the cake was stale. It is very sad for me to hear this as I know how much my mum was looking forward to this experience.I would like some feedback

Today I travelled to Cirencester to use 2 Groupons for £10 of Truffles offered at %50 off at £5.00.( 0ne for me and one as a gift for my mum). The shop and tables looked clean and tidy. The majority of Chocolates are unwrapped and on open an uncovered display in the middle of the room which is very unhygienic(even Thorntons keep their chocolates behind glass).I was browsing but could not fine a price on the chocolates although there were scales at the counter so presumably they are sold by the Kilo (as on the continent).A very nice Lady came over and asked if I needed help and I asked the price which was not forthcoming, I explained that I had Groupon coupons and was directed to the truffles at the end of the table and was told they contain alcohol and may contain nuts. I explained that that was not explained on the Groupon deal and that I did not want alcoholic ones for myself but chose Rum and Rasin in one bag for my mum. I got 11 truffles in the bag which weighed 104 grams (including packing) which would equate to about £100 /KG. The other voucher was for myself and I don't drink so I was offered an alternative of 20 orange rinds covered in chocolate which the lady let slip cost 20 p each so when I pointed out that that only equated to £4.00 and my coupon was supposed to be worth £10 I was then offered some violet creams/ Rasberrry creams or choc brazils. I chose violet (bad choice) and Rasberry (jummy) but started to eat them before I got home so don't know what they weighed.All chocolates were selected from the open display in the middle of the room by the nice Lady.Overall I was very disappointed with the experience and don't think I had value for money (even if you use the £5 price I actually paid for 104 grams that would be £50/Kg!) and given that other reviewers have received free truffles on departure that devalues my purchases even more!

Visited here at the weekend and popped in as was passing by and looked nice from the street. Very small cafe/shop with 3 tables and spotted one free to sit at to then notice it was reserved. Waited only a few minutes for another table to become free and ordered 2 ultimate hot chocolates. These were very nice but slightly over priced. Quite a few more people came in to sit at the reserved table and all of these were turned away as a groupon customer had reserved the table. I'm sure they lost a lot of money from this. The manager also seemed to open the door and hold it open with a door as I'm guessing she was hot but did not think to ask her customers of this was OK as it was the freezing and a very cold breeze coming through. We quickly drank up and left. Not impressed really with atmosphere, price of rude manager not concerned about customers.

We visited for the first time today & were very impressed. Groupon offer in hand & no reservation made which certainly didn't seem to cause a problem. We were served two delicious but very rich hot chocolates along with our choice of cake. The man serving us looked after us very well & offered to warm our drinks up if needed but wasn't necessary. At the end he gave us a few chocolates which wasn't part of the offer but was appreciated.

My wife and I popped in for a hot drink while shopping and had two excellent hot chocolates. I like mine strong and dark while my wife likes hers a standard milk chocolate and so we were really please that the owner was happy to offer us a bespoke hot chocolate service - fantastic! We will definitely be back!

Like other reviewers, we made use of a Groupon voucher. However, unlike other reviewers, we thoroughly enjoyed our Drizzle Chocolate experience. From the moment that we were met by the owner (or at least I assume that he was the owner), the experience was a delight. The welcome and the attention that we received was excellent. The hot chocolate was great, with a choice of three; plain, caramel or strawberry. We were also offered three types of cake and to round things off we could choose two truffles each. We were surprised to have truffles as we thought that the Groupon offer was cake or truffles, not both.I don't know if this was in response to other comments, but there was also background music.We nearly didn't bother to use our voucher given the other reviews that had been submitted, but we are really glad that we did.

Having bought a groupon offer for £5 the price was meant to be £10 worth of handmade truffles, I was expecting a lot more than the 9 I was given. We looked once we left, for the " I saw you coming" sign but could not see it. Alas a lesson learnt and we shall not be returning as I think £10 for 9 chocolate's is rather expensive.

Bought a Groupon Deal for us to go for hot chocolate & cake! Sounds lovely! The chocolate display is gorgeous. However there is little to no atmosphere, no background music, no toilet! Very small with a cafe look and feel to fit - but with cosy coffee shop prices!!! Hot chocolate was ok - but a little cool! Cake was just a fridge cake - nice - but not wonderful! Overall I wouldn't rush back - I was disappointed!

Lovely shop and products. Hate to moan but hot chocolate was not that warm at all however the cream and marshmallows looked lovely. Cake was superb. Customer service was poor plus it would be nice to have some music in the background as it was very quiet and a empty cafe can be awkward. Wouldn't visit again just because I think other cafes offer better value for money. Hope this helps :-)

Lovely shop beautiful inside , completely lacks atmosphere . A little music in the background would be great and a TOILET would be great ! Hot chocolate was okay but moreOfA warm chocolate , the cake was nice Just felt like it was missing something

We stopped for a quick hot drink on a damp miserable November day and were rewarded with the most wonderful mug of hot chocolate. The other produce laid out looked wonderful too. Will definitely visit again in the future.

We booked through a groupon voucher deal we got, booking was easy, we were 20 mins early, which wasn't a problem for the hostess. We were served pretty quickly, however, the main door was open so it was quite cold. We were asked did we want cake or truffles with hot chocolate, we both chose cake. We were served our hot chocolates with cream and a marshmallow on top, we were both delighted when we received them, but the cake wasn't a cake, it was a tray bake rocky road, it was ok, found it quite bitter. My friend had a long hair in her hot chocolate. Could of been better, the lady was kind enough to offer us a chocolate truffle after which was nice.There wasn't much of an oomph, it was pleasant but average, I probably won't sit in and eat again in here but may purchase truffles in the future.

Have to say we were very disappointed after visiting here today. First we checked the facebook page for opening times which suggests it's open from 10am and when we arrived it didn't open until 11am. So we returned at 11.05 with a Groupon voucher having not made a reservation (our mistake). We were very bluntly and abruptly turned away despite the restaurant being empty and only planning to stay for a short while. We had also explained that we made a special journey for this visit as we are not local to Cirencester. One very upset little girl who was disappointed so ended up finding an alternative to visit instead. Terrible customer service!

Enjoyed a cream tea at this delightful shop tucked away in Cirencester. Not been to town before, temped by a deal for this place, great welcome to town. If been good weather good have sat outside, but heavy rain did not spoil experience. Very nice food, great staff. Loved the "Happiness" tea - would love to buy this. Chocolates quite amazing - not your average, not tasted anything like this - def hand made. Lush.

Chocolates are lovely, service is adequate, tea was good but coffee was bitter. Good value for what we paid.

Enjoyed our tea, scones and delicious chocolates! Bought some extras to take home too! Loved it! We visited on a Sunday afternoon, it was very quiet. Will definitely be back.

A rather haphazard setup. Waited long for service. Ordered an 'intense' - specifically described as 70% dark chocolate with a biscuit. Arrived with no biscuit or apology. When I asked where the biscuit was apparently they didn't have any. Instead I was offered some cake or a chocolate. We were also given free water as we waited a while to be served. Overall not an impressive experience.

Visited today for afternoon cream tea for two purchased via groupon. Very small with only 3 tables therefore we had to leave initially and return 30 minutes later. Cream tea consisted of a pot of tea each and a scone with clotted cream and jam and 2 chocolates each. The teapots looked dirty when served but the tea did taste good and was loose leafed. Scones and chocolates very nice. However we did order chocolate brownie Sunday for our daughter and they had no chocolate brownies and also mo squash. I also heard someone else order some strawberry ice cream which was also unavailable. Although staff were pleasant I wouldn't return!

Hidden away from the city-centre, this delightful refuge serves excellent (hand made) chocolate, ice-creams, "Afternoon Tea" hot and cold drinks - locally sourced where feasible. To top it off - superb (low level) music to set the scene! Richard - the owner was affable - without being intrusive - and a most gracious host. We wish him well in his business and recommend you stop by to sample their wares!
