Leonidas in City of London, Westminster

I visited your shop at 15 Broadway St James, London SW1H on the morning of Thursday 23rd December 2021. I went to buy 3 boxes of mixed butter creams for my wife, our daughter and my wife’s sister. These were to be Christmas presents. This is a tradition that has been going on for around 2 decades. The three ladies concerned love your chocolates and would be very disappointed if I broke with the tradition. For my part, buying Leonidas chocolates keeps me in everyone’s good books, plus I get to enjoy the occasional delightful chocolate. When I first started buying Leonidas as presents I would visit your outlet at Selfridges on Oxford Street. When that outlet closed I would go to your Liverpool Street shop, then to the one at Bond Street. To be honest, the journey to St James Park from where I live in East London is a bit of a trek but it’s worth it. Over all those years, at all those venues, I have always been treated courteously. That said, the service this year at your St James shop, was special. I was served by two young ladies, Estelle and Rebecca. They were wonderful. They were professional, efficient, helpful and charming. I don’t know if they were taking pity on a pensioner as I told them my tale of loyalty to Leonidas, but I suspect it was just in their nature to be especially kind. They offered me a free chocolate while I waited as my boxes were gift-wrapped for Christmas. And when I returned to buy an additional box, I was offered a cup of coffee. To be sure, the reason for going to Leonidas outlets is because they make the best chocolates in the world, unlike any other, anywhere. But the service provided by Estelle and Rebecca, in this mad rush, slap happy, make-do world was truly special. If it were possible to distill their warmth and friendly service and give a large dose of it to others working in the retail and hospitality industries then shopping would be a far better experience than it often is these days.

Amplia selección de maravillosos chocolates a precios razonables (que son más bajos que la tienda que solía estar cerca antes). Recomendado

Siempre es una experiencia maravillosa para probar y probar un verdadero chocolate, nunca dejo de irme sin una compra.

Estaba pasando un día en octubre, cuando estaba haciendo otros recados. Miré por la ventana y vi una deliciosa disposición de bombones. Entré en la posibilidad de que pudieran tener cáscaras de naranja cubiertas con chocolate negro. ¡Lo hicieron! Compré 5. 00 / valor, y los pusieron en una encantadora bolsa roja. Estaban absolutamente deliciosos. Estaba planeando regresar, antes de irme de Londres, pero algo más siempre me impedía hacerlo. Pero ahora sé dónde está, y cuán deliciosas son las cáscaras de naranja con chocolate, ciertamente haré un punto de ir a Leonidas en mi próxima visita.

Nos detuvimos en nuestro camino hacia el metro para ir a casa después de una estadía en un hotel cercano. El servicio fue rápido y eficiente, me encantó la elección de chocolates y la rápida envoltura. Genial para un regalo. En la caja había pequeñas cajas de chocolate ya envueltas, solo costaba 1. Recogí un par. Muy lindo.

Small chocolate shop close to our hotel. Prices were average. Surprisingly the muffins were very good..

They give out free samples a lot. The salted caramel chocolate was amazing. I want to go buy some more. The milk hot chocolate was delicious. My cousin’s liked their dark hot chocolate and latte. The lady was very nice.

Lovely little store with absolutley delicious belgian chocolate. Stopped in many times across the street from the Conrad Hilton. How convenient! Belgian chocolate one of the best European chocolates.

I love Leonidas chocolate so was pleased to find this shop so close to St. Ermin's. They serve coffee and tea as well as snacks so nice for a stop when sightseeing

We popped in for some tea, which was only £1 per cup. Very friendly & helpful staff but although their website says that this is a cafe they don't have any cake - just chocolates.
