Yarra Valley Chocolaterie & Ice Creamery

I've eaten here numerous times and have rarely been disappointed. The food is tasty and reasonably priced. The scones are huge and the house made jam and dollop cream is delicious and plentiful - perfect. Getting a cup of melted chocolate to add to your hot chocolate as well as the chocolate drops already in the milk, make for a decadent experience and usually with leftover chocolate in the cup that I wrap up and take home, I don't want to waste the chocolatey goodness! :) I've been here for breakfast and lunch - the Smashed avo was amazing and the lamb pizza and pumpkin pizza were both enjoyable enough. The Chocolate letters are a fabulous addition to their range and make great birthday/Christmas gifts. This year I've made 2 online orders. The first took longer than expected - a note on their home page advising of potential delays would have been good and I believe they did update that info. But the products arrived in great condition and were well packed. My second order arrived more promptly but unfortunately with a couple of items damaged. I contacted them to advise - knowing that it wouldn't have left the showroom that way - and replacements were offered (with apologies) and sent super quickly, arriving in perfect condition. I'm looking forward to visiting again as soon as the 25km limit is dropped. :)

Love the ice cream here. Large portions with a good selection of basic flavours. The chocolate is not my taste, probably more Australian (made for our warm weather) rather than the smooth Belgium/Swiss chocolate I prefer. Bought a jar of choc chai tea- wasn't good so might be advisable to stay away from tea. Lots of grass for kids to run around. And the restaurant is large with a renovation with nice views.

Nice selection of chocolates and delicious ice cream. Not much for kids to do other than want all the treats. Bring a picnic blanket to sit down and enjoy the sugar rush. There is a play area/park McKenzie reserve 5min away that has a nice play area for kids

Delicious chocolates and great customer service! We had a lot of trouble with the courier company for our recent “hot choc festival at home” purchase but Kate from YVCI was very helpful and responsive throughout the process and so far all of the hot chocolates that we have tried have been absolutely delightful. We’ve been to the chocolaterie in person a few times prior to lockdown and always had a great experience! Can highly recommend.

This place is a chocolate wonderland, I have been purchasing items and visiting this place for years. When visiting the Yarra Valley it’s a must. The store layout is well designed, with a beautiful large viewing area so you can see these chocolatiers at work. I can not go home without a few of those famous brownie jars or bars and blocks.
