Aigner Chocolates

The Hulk and Wonder Woman chocolates were a huge hit at Friends of Karen's Heroes Among Us Gala — everyone raved about the adorable presentation, and they were absolutely delicious! They added such a fun, memorable touch to the event, and our guests truly enjoyed them. We appreciate your partnership in helping make the event even sweeter and look forward to collaborating again soon! ~Leslie Regional Director at Friends of Karen

Support small businesses. Love this place. My favorite is the chocolate shot cause you can taste how rich it is. The dark chocolate potato sticks are so good! Going to try the cake next!

I love this little shop! I randomly found it on Google while trying to find a local chocolate shop. You will not be disappointed. The chocolate selections are great, quality is amazing. They even have freshly made milk and dad chocolate ice cream! I had a small scoop today and I don’t even like chocolate ice cream! Also the staff is so kind, nice and attentive!

What a sweet shop, literally and figuratively. Gorgeous, tasty treats. All freshly made for every holiday. Great staff too.

The chocolate is top notch, absolutely delicious, so many different flavors, well made high quality chocolate, highly recommended. I ordered a cappuccino it cost over $4 and it wasn’t good, so they’re not for drinks. Kind, quick, and friendly service.

It was my first time ever going and I have wanted to go for a while. My bf and I had walked in and were greeted. It was a calm, chill vibe. There was a lady who was very attentive. She offered us free samples of the ice cream and other chocolates. She was so sweet, kind and patient. We appreciated her help, even when getting us dark chocolate nonparells from the back. I highly recommend this place for great treats/snacks and great service. Definitely coming back.

I've been coming to this chocolate shop for over 40 years, since back when it was called Krause's. There are few things in life that stand up to time the way Aigner's does. It seems like nothing is made "like it used to be," but I swear Aigner chocolates are identical to how I remember them. Their chocolate is every bit as special as it stands in my childhood memories. I now live about two hours East, but take the drive with my own kids every Christmas time to buy our old favorites and try some new things. Despite being super busy, Rachel always greets us warmly. Maybe it's a personal taste--but I would take Aigner over any chocolate--and that includes Teuscher. My kids agree!

My family and I popped in to this store and our visit was a taste of heaven. Rachel and her team are as sweet, authentic as all of the treats in the store. This is my new go to for the best chocolate for my friends and family!!

Super impressed with this chocolate shop! I thought I'd tasted the best chocolate covered Oreo before in my life, but the ones from Aigner were a million times better!!! Everything was really fresh and wonderful. They gave us lots of samples, and I love that almost everything comes in either dark chocolate or milk chocolate. I always hesitate to get chocolate gifts when I'm away from home because I don't know how they will do in my luggage on a plane, but the 2 wonderful people working here helped me choose things that would travel well and make great gifts, and sure enough everything arrived with no melting and no damage- yay! Everybody loved their treats of course. I will definitely go back here when I am in this section of Queens again- there are so many wonderful different kinds of ethnic & types of restaurants/shops on this street in the Forest Hills section of Queens- Metropolitan Avenue. Check it out!!

Well I just drove away So my husband and I went there tonight keep in mind I go there every 2weeks for chocolate...it's 6:15 on a Saturday night we walk I have my service dog which I wear in a crossbody bag and was asked to leave because of my dog!!!!!! Never asked if he was a service dog Keep in mind I am 58 yrs old have been going since it was Krauses. I love giving to small neighborhood shops. I left and the owner came out of back room and decided to tell my husband it was all her employee fault she should've asked.So I stood on metro while my husband STILL made the purchase. Instead of the owner just saying I'm sorry please come in just show me the certificate ( which I have on me at all times ) and issue would be over. NO she decides to argue and then say they will have staff meeting. POOR HANDLING if situation. Sorry to say will never go back.

I can not say enough about this chocolate store. As long as I can remember my mother would bring me in this store for holidays or special occasions. It has always been a precious part of my childhood and now now I create my own memories with my family. I went in last night and the guy and girl working the counter were so nice and sweet and answered our questions about the chocolate hearts that we had. The store was full of valentines chocolates all different prices and all very much thought out. There is a price range for any and everyone that walks in. The second you walk in you can smell the delicious home made chocolates, ice-cream, coffees and treats. I absolutely love this store and it will always be a place I go to for my special moments in life.

This is one of the best and most affordable chocolatiers I've been to! I've been meaning to stop in here for a while and I'm so happy that I did. The smell of delicious chocolate hits you right away and there is so much chocolate in every shape and size throughout the store. I was super excited and couldn't wait to pick out something yummy. The employee was really kind and helpful, and even gave me samples of some chocolate - my favorite was the milk chocolate cat tongue. It was absolutely delicious and melted in my mouth! I ended up buying a block of milk chocolate molded into a violin. It was so creamy and just delectable. Funny enough, I ended up back here after brunch because I dragged my friend along since she had also wanted to visit this spot for some time. We ended up buying some more chocolate, including some chocolate Christmas wreaths that were on sale. This is such an amazing spot for quality chocolate that I highly recommend stopping into if you're looking for delectable chocolate. I plan to stop by here whenever I need a sweet gift, or just some chocolate for myself!

Chocolate is one of the most loved and versatile human inventions. It comes in many forms of liquid (melted, hot chocolate, syrup), solid (bars, bark, fudge, bunnies), amorphous (ice cream) and if you can serve it as a gas to be inhaled, I'm sure Aigner Chocolates will come up with one to be vaped. The smell of chocolate certainly permeates your nostrils and into your clothes as you walk around the store. We came in to check out the store before dinner, me for the Summer of Sandwiches Elite Experience to get my S'mores samplers and my wife to shop. They have chocolate drinks in the front and at least 3 different flavors of chocolate ice cream in the back. The salesperson was extremely helpful and even gave us a couple of samples, milk chocolate for her and white chocolate for me. The Star Wars chocolate figures caught my eye and an R2-D2, along with a couple of Baby Yoda heads came home with us, as well as a few assorted gift boxes for a friend's upcoming birthday. I think I will come back when it gets cooler outside for a steaming cup of hot white chocolate!

I hate to leave Aigner Chocolates a bad review but unfortunately it just really wasn't good. I did stop by for the Yelp trio of marshmallows but also got some other additional chocolates as well. I'm not sure why the marshmallows are called marshmallows as they're quite hard and don't taste like marshmallows at all. I wasn't a big fan of the flavors either and just thought it tasted confusing. As for the additional chocolates, it was really a hit or miss. The coconut ones were terrible (instead of using real coconut flakes they use some weird crystallized artificial coconut and it is really not good). However, the nut ones were fantastic. In short, only 1/3 things tasted good. Maybe I just picked the wrong things but I've had a lot better chocolates elsewhere.

I'm no expert on chocolate, but I don't think you need to be a connoisseur to understand that the chocolate here is special. Chocolate shop with a hot chocolate bar upfront plus a few chocolate ice creams in the back. Lots of variety making it difficult for me to choose, so I opted for a small box of 8 pieces for $16. First thing I noticed was the texture. The chocolate wasn't sticky and ate cleanly. The chocolates were easy to bite into without being mushy. Next, I liked how the flavors of the various chocolates complimented the chocolate flavor. Whether it was mint, caramel, peanut, or one of the other accompaniments, I felt the chocolate still stood out and wasn't overshadowed by the additional ingredients. Last and what was most noteworthy to me was the finish. About fifteen minutes after finishing the chocolates, I still felt a chocolate flavor. I don't recall having the chocolate flavor resonating for so long before. It's possible that some chocolate but was lodged in my mouth and slowly dissipating, but I'd prefer to believe there is something special about this chocolate. Service was quick and super patient with me and my wife. The shop has a cute windowsill counter with about half a dozen seats.

No joke, Aigner has been on my list of places to try. Unfortunately, I always arrived too early while shopping at Trader Joe's or too late while meeting friends for dinner at an Italian restaurant on Metropolitan. Finally got a chance to try the famous Australian chocolatier, who has been part of the Forest Hills community. They are a 3 generation family owned business. In a few years, it will be the 100th year anniversary. Wow... It's been around and this is my first time. They accept credit cards (thank goodness!) As soon as I walked in, the employee offered me a sample of milk or dark chocolate sample. The employees were friendly and helped me decide when I could figure out what to choose. I decided on milk chocolate sample. At the same time, I was distracted by the chocolate drinks. Debating between the hazelnut latte or regular hot chocolate. If you have never been here, get the rich hot chocolate as suggested by the employee. She was so right -- I got a milk one. It was rich and thick. Delicious! The store was clean and you can check out each section. There were so many chocolates: gift boxes, truffles, unique shapes, s'mores, ice cream, and drinks. I decided on the barks: peanut butter and cookies and cream so I can share. Go try it and decide for yourself!

I'm guilty myself, but how are we sleeping on the Hot Chocolate at Aigner?! Walking around Metro on a cold day, a hot chocolate sounded really good so into Aigner we went. Walking in is a chocolate lovers dream; the aromas are intoxicating . Hot Chocolate is available in milk, white or dark versions. I opt'd for the dark and it was made to order. The cup was filled to the rim and the smell was just heavenly. Taking a sip I was immediately happy, it was creamy, not too sweet, the perfect temperature and the level of chocolate was amazing. This may be the best version I've had..like ever. Whether you are looking for chocolates to snack on or a hot chocolate to keep you warm during these cold months, definitely grab one at Aigner.

So in the quest to find a large chocolate Easter bunny my brother calls this place and the women says we have three large size bunnies! So I decide to drive up I get up there finally and I'm told oh gee that large bunny is not for sale! It's going to be raffled. I say WHAT???? The girl gets the owner who comes out and I tell him what happened! He says oh no that large bunny is $1000! "Here's one that's dark chocolate and only $300!" 1/2 the size of the large one...I say YOU'RE KIDDING. So I walk out of the place, more like storm out! Happy Easter!! Off I go back to Itgen's in Valley Stream...large chocolate bunny $200! And they throw in bags of jelly beans and chocolate kisses! I'll NEVER go back to that other place!!

Lived in Queens my whole life and never went here before and i am missing out. Their chocolate shots are so flavorful and rich. The associates know their history of this place and has lots of options to choose from!

Friendly staff. Nice little spot to grab some DELICIOUS chocolate and/or coffee. We purchased an iced chocolate drink, nonpareils, chocolate pretzels & chocolate raspberry jell. Everything was dee-lish. Definitely plan on returning next time was have a sweet tooth. Two thumbs all the way up!

Wonderful chocolatier! Pros: + Family owned business - owners really take pride in what they do + Sample of milk/dark chocolate when you walk in - I got to try the cat tongue + Truffles by weight - reasonably priced + Convenient street side parking + Beautiful decor + Seasonally inspired items are gorgeous - Eggs for easter, smores for the fall IG: QueenOfAdventureNYC

Dark chocolate snob here. I've lived in France and had the best chocolate in boutique chocolateries in Paris. I enjoy Swiss chocolates (also lived there) and enjoy Belgian Neuhaus and Leonidas chains. Francophile and Francophone so wasn't expecting the incredibly, high quality milk chocolate I got at Aigner chocolates. The opposite of blindsided. I parked on the side street. Metropolitan has metered parking until 7 p.m. every day but Sunday. Got there just before closing at 6. Service was friendly. I was looking for small wrapped chocolates for some of the Easter eggs I was filling with things for my niece's Easter egg hunt. She's 7.5 and likes milk chocolate so I picked up foil wrapped mini chocolate eggs, bunnies and chicks. I tried a few and my eyes lit up in amazement at how GOOD they were and much more affordable than the Belgian chains available in the US. Next time I'll pick up some dark chocolate. I'll also be back for when I'm looking for friend and family gifts. Friends, I'm so glad I came to Aigner. Always happy to support local businesses.

A family owned over 90 year old chocolatier is basically a timekeeper personified for what chocolate used to be almost 100 years ago. It's history you can taste and that is just so special. I got the hot chocolates during my visits, once iced, once hot. The milk hot chocolate was good BUT you could barely get a taste of the chocolate so I would highly recommend getting the dark chocolate drinks regardless of it being cold or hot. It isn't bitter at all and you can really taste the chocolate coming through. The hot chocolate is made, then the ice is put in and it's finished with some milk poured over top. I was concerned it would be half ice (like most iced drinks are) and like a splash of hot chocolate but that wasn't the case at all. Each sip you get a little nugget of soft melty chocolate too. It becomes almost like a melted shake/malt once the ice melts and if you have some left over you can always heat it up and have it hot. I definitely want to try the ice creams next and some of the other drinks so I'll be back.

Like the chocolate, hate the attitude and prices. Very poor customer service for a premium price. The owner is dismissive and rude, even if you're a regular customer. We will be taking our (recurring, frequent) business elsewhere.

We love Aigner Chocolates! Almost if not everything goes in either milk chocolate or dark chocolate to accommodate for more sweet or bitter palates. I've had the mocha and pistachio truffles in milk chocolate which were particularly good! I also have had the milk chocolate with almond milk which was amazing! Reminds me of the hot chocolate I had in Barcelona years ago that used real melted chocolate. Helpful hint: Credit card minimum is $10 and there aren't any atm's nearby. Fairly easy to get to $10 if you get a selection of chocolates but just to be aware.

Perfect place to get all your Easter goodies! They have a great selection of Easter chocolates along with other chocolates for "everyday" needs. We got their gift box with an assortment of chocolates before, and they were delicious. Like a number of other businesses on Metropolitan in Forest Hills, they've been around for a while. The decor is classic and very cute.

Business card address in Queens NYC Great to have U. Hi there A go to place for yourself and fancy gifts to pass out I enjoy the decorations

Very nice chocolate shop. Very good selection of chocolate beautifully displayed. Very friendly and professional staff. Great decorations and good lighting.

I went to Aigner Chocolates for the first time today after having passed by many times and hearing wonderful things. It had started to pour outside and I was craving chocolate so I decided to check it out. I was so impressed with how clean the shop was. There was a hand sanitizer and glove station, which I think is definitely needed at this time. I was greeted by a very nice worker who helped me to select my chocolates. I chose chocolate covered pretzels and some pralines. So far I have only tasted the dark chocolate pretzel, milk chocolate marzipan, and a hazelnut praline, all were delicious. I will definitely be back and can't wait to share these chocolates with my husband.

Chocolate confections all around the store. This place is a mecca of everything chocolate! I looked left, lots of whimsical and seasonal chocolate figures. I look right, a glass case of assorted chocolates with specialty fillings or custom shaped chocolate pieces. Then straight into the store, there's a table in the center that displays playful and intricately designed themed chocolates. I totally felt like a kid again except now, I could buy however many pieces I want instead of just one. Insert sugary high giggles here. I went on a sugar spree (they were lucky to catch me before I had dinner) and with just a week before Valentine's Day, I figured this was the perfect opportunity to shop. Of course I'm not waiting a week to eat some choice pieces, I thoroughly enjoyed: - chocolate dipped Twinkie - emoji designed chocolate dipped Oreos - One bite cognac filled truffles (sold by the pound so in my case I bought a select # of pieces for gifting so I paid by the weight). Think chocolate lollipops, nonpareil dipped chocolates, gorgeous gift ideas, party favor selections -- chocolate dipped everything! Most varieties available in milk and dark. I requested assistance from the super nice counter person who helped me pick the right flavors and steered me to the ingredients I wanted. Open daily till 8pm. Go check it out!

I'll quickly mention the one glaring flaw, and then get to the good stuff. I've had the cold brew there twice now and it is just way too bitter. Does not taste good at all. But, not like this place is called Aigner Coffee, right? Ok now to the (we'll-deserved) compliments. This is a small but well-kept chocolate shop. They are one of the most cautious places regarding Covid (and that is a compliment - I always feel safe going here). They limit the number of people who can be inside at once, have a coffee-to-go window (that might actually have been there pre-Covid), and when you go inside they not only have a hand sanitizer dispenser, but they politely ask people to use it. The chocolate there is the real deal. From classics like truffles, almond crunches, and chocolate-covered anything's, to artistic creations (holiday symbols, baseball "bats" made of chocolate, etc.), everything is delicious. The staff there are all wonderful; they're all friendly and knowledgeable about everything chocolate. Once I asked them about the differences between the salt caramels and the worker gave me a spot-on answer. Black Mediterranean Sea salt caramels have a different (saltier) taste than Pink Himalayan, for instance. Lastly, this place does some community and charity work. That's a huge plus for me, makes me want to support them. Please check this place out for all good things chocolate.

Apparently the approaching Valentine's Day has put this shop in a tailspin as I see I'm not the only reviewer who has had a poor experience. While I did receive a partial refund due to the fact my order was incorrect, I just don't understand why I too had to chase my order and that it was then wrong when they got around to sending it. It's chocolate people....and I ordered very specific things ( not easily confused certainly not by their by appearance ). And YES the box is UGLY! not one romantic or cute thing about it. I hope they serve their walk in clientele a lot better! I guess life really is like a box of chocolates - with Aigner.- you never know what you're gonna get!!!

Who knows if the chocolate tastes nice, but their on line ordering is awful. Not only did I have to call to find out where my order was, only to be told by Betsy it was completely overlooked, and she'd get right on it...when it did arrive it was wrong!! And not a valentines festive bow in site!! The items were just stuffed in an Aigner box in bubblewrap! I mean OMG - Should I even feed it to anyone? Shouldn't it at least be in something like cellophane? At least make it look like you care and it wasn't dropped on the floor! WOW! Never again. EVER!

I arrived at the location about 4pm there was a few people inside all on line waiting to pay. There was no one to greet me as I walked in or help in anyway I was initially standing around... I was here for an event so I spotted the Yelp sign in front and scanned it then I started walking around looking for the golden egg.. At this point I still haven't spoken to anyone however I did read the instructions on what the event was about. I started to speak to a young lady behind the counter since she seemed to just be standing there I showed her my phone & asked what was happening however she was immediately interrupted to help other guest that were on line and I was told to wait. There was not many people however I waited for about 10 minutes. I was then assisted by someone else and she was explaining the event to me I showed her the egg I've found and she gave me the nonpareils. Unfortunately I wasn't given a Yelp elite souvenir I also forgot /did not ask or even mention it. I did shop around and ended up also purchasing a chocolate covered Twinkie, a chocolate covered devil dog and 4 pieces of salted caramel. My daughter and I overall enjoyed the sweet treats. Our review will be posted on Instagram @msbelve

Rachel is a sweetheart. Thank you for accommodating our last minute order! The chocolates are delicious - my nephews loved them. The staff are very courteous and sweet. Looking forward to placing another order!

Just an amazing little chocolate confectionery that you just don't see anymore. Family owned and operated, with all the delicious goodies made on site. You can definitely rack up a big bill on your credit card here, but it's worth it. So much to choose from, specialty orders taken, seasonal and holiday chocolates and items. Many cool chocolate figurines and sculptures, gift boxes, and fun chocolates to feast on. We bought a bunch of stuff and were happy with our purchase. Oh, and they offer hot chocolate on the premises, terrific service, along with a nice little old school vibe. Worth a visit if close by.

Everytime I bite into a piece of their Dark Chocolate Marzipan it takes me back to being a kid and I'm riddled with happiness, delight and of course the mouthful of one of the best chocolates you can ever eat. Little story for ya on why I choose Aigner over any other chocolatier: Back when I was a kid, my dad would come home from work with these boxes of "Hulk Candies" he would describe them as. They were this dark chocolate shell with a line of green on the outside and green filling on the inside and we would turn on Lou Ferrigno's old Hulk show and when he would turn into the hulk we would take a eat a candy and do the same thing....Hulk Out. Man, I wish I could describe in words how much joy it brings me and my family to have those candies, and the excitement we get every time someone brings em home!! All I can say is go to Aingner Chocolates, let one of their many many fine selection chocolates melt in your mouth, and you most definitely will soon be going back!!

This place is a treasure. A genuine chocolatier beloved by the neighborhood for decades, Aigner's not only produces excellent chocolates with a focus on truffle confections, they have a drink bar and ice cream in-season. This makes Aigner's the best place to go to buy impressive locally made gifts for others as well as a takeaway treats for yourself. A walk through Forest Park to Aigner's is a part of every tour I give visiting friends. Everything here has the personal touch: the decor, the handmade confections, down to the hand-decorated signs by a talented young local artist (https://www.madebyhayleefaye.com/) My wife and I frequently go for hot chocolate in winter, and iced mochas in summer. We just tried the ice cream yesterday and both the dark chocolate and the pistachio (temporary) flavors are richly intense, just as you'd want. Textured with dark chocolate and nut flakes. Aigner's sells something nowhere else does: drinking chocolate, which they call a "chocolate shot." I want to point out that staff are not making this consistently -- some make it much less thick than others -- so you have to get a bit lucky to get the real thing I love, which is just a little cup of pure melted dark chocolate to savor in winter. This place's mocha drinks are no more expensive than a coffee shop, and are far, far better. No syrups, just the real stuff. our choice of any milk you can imagine. The staff is a bit small and drinks are not the main business, so leave some extra time for your order at busy times.

How have I never heard of this place before!? Then again, I'm never in this neck of the woods. The furthest I usually go is 71st and Continental/Austin Street. But a few stops away on the 23 bus has got to be one of Queens' best kept secrets (well, it ain't much of a secret. There are a bunch of YouTube vids about this place. Anywho...) While on our way to meet friends for a movie in this area, we stumbled across Aigner's. My daughter, eagle eyes that she is, saw it and we decided to check it out. A chocolate wonderland is what it is! They had Marvel chocolates, Star Wars...some of everything. It was the weekend after Valentine's Day and the V-Day chocolates were buy one get one free. I got a Bitcoin shaped chocolate for myself. How can I describe it for anyone who hasn't been here...? Okay, so there's Hershey's chocolate, right? Imagine Hershey's but smoother, lighter, softer, creeeeeeeeeeeeamier, dreeeeeeeeeeeamier and just melts as soon as it touches your tongue. My daughter asked her father to take her back the next day. She was sweet enough to get me some Grogu aka Baby Yoda head shaped chocolate. Mellllllllllllllllted like buttah on my tongue. She's obsessed with their white chocolate which I'll try next time...like, really soon. As soon as I can get back over there. A young lady greeted us as we entered and offered to help but we needed time to look. I predict that a trip to Aigner's will never be a quick in-and-out. I'm sure they'll have traditional, staple chocolates as well as new, themed stuff to keep it interesting. When we were ready to check out, another sweetheart rang us up and answered my daughter's 20 questions about their chocolates and how they make the cool shapes. I'm sure that if they were on Austin street, they'd have lines going out the door. They'd make a killing! Hmm... Then again, that might lead to them mass producing their chocolate and the quality suffering... Okay, nevermind. Stay nestled away in this quiet Metropolitan Avenue neighborhood. We know where to find ya.

Great neighborhood chocolate shop that has been here for generations and decades. Quality chocolates with lots of variety. Super good service and affordable. I highly recommend anything dark chocolate here. The dark chocolate covered almonds, the peanut butter cups, or even the caramel chocolates. You can't go wrong. Good flavor and decent dark chocolate taste. A must in the neighborhood.

I tried some of their chocolates today after we were gifted some, and its absolutely amazing. From the presentation to the smooth and rich taste of the chocolate, everything was perfect. I love how it was perfectly bitter and sweet. Aigner Chocolate really is the perfect place to get your chocolate from, no matter if it's for yourself or for a loved one. Must try!!!

Got a surprise chocolate box for Mother's Day. It was nicely wrapped and looked so good. Chocolate selection is varied and was pretty good. I always forget about this place but should remember. I actually sent boxes to my friend in Aruba as a surprise gift. I believe it was well received. Nice people and nice gifts of yummy local chocolate.

Always walked by and decided to drop in. Super glad I did! The staff were amazing - kind and informative. Both the chocolates and the drinks were incredible and reasonably priced. I can't wait for my next visit!

If you love chocolates you Must put this shop on your bucket list ...... You should know the following; 1) Parking is a real pain ..... feed the meters because the traffic cop is very fast !!! 2) Be prepared to spend $$$ money !! On the average I spend any ware from $ 28 to $ 38 bucks. I believe they are at $ 34 bucks a pound !!! Totally worth it !!! Some of the finest chocolate we ever had; huge selection all the favorites plus a large variety of seasonal items ..... Their coffee is delicious especially when you have a chocolate Oreo cookie with it !!! Also tried their milk chocolate cashew bark .... perfect chew & the chocolate melts in your mouth ... I'm hooked so is my family !!! Took a lot of pictures but yelp must be having issues .....

Amazing cake!!! I ordered this for my sister's graduation. And, it was hands down, the best cake I've ever had. I'm a chocolate lover and this was so rich and creamy. I'm so glad I ordered this. I'll definitely come back again and order this as well as other chocolate, too!

Best. chocolate. ever! And the owners and staff ain't too shabby either. It's worth a trip from anywhere at all as not only the chocolate top shelf, but they make cappuccino and excellent ice cream in the summer. I'd give it 6 stars if I could.

Yea it's the best chocolate in the city simple! This spot is top elite level. My daughter loves it I have there coffee and chocolate it's just bomb

Super cute store! Chocolate is delicious & high quality - worth the price. Service is friendly. Love their ganache truffles, chocolate covered Oreos and peanut butter cups. Coffee is also served here, which is a nice touch. Planning on going back to try the chocolate covered devil dog next!

Not my first visit here, Adorable chocolate and confectionery shop, clean and neat as soon as you walk him, staff is friendly and helpful as you struggle to pick your chocolates ( which is not an easy thing as they all look and sound like amazing flavors. Besides the picks I chose today I got a few gifts. And my favorite chocolate covered rum balls. Also chocolate covered espresso beans.

Prices are outrageous I don't feel like it was quality chocolate I felt like I was eating boxed chocolate so I won't be returning

Browsing the inside of Aigner Chocolates is a treat itself. The aroma of fresh chocolate greets you as soon as you enter. All of the chocolate on display is prettily wrapped and neat. The mocha latte with dark chocolate is delicious! I recommend anyone passing by to stop in.

What a great shop! Terrific chocolates and helpful staff. When invited to friends/family for dinner, this is the place to pick up a unique hostess gift that EVERYONE will enjoy.

My fiancé gave me a box of chocolates and it was delicious! He picked each piece of dark chocolate to put in the box and it was all great! I can't wait to go back myself and buy more chocolates. Such good quality candy.

I am an avid believer that if you eat chocolate everyday your life is better. So I enjoy eating chocolates and have found some of the best chocolates here in New York. But Aigner Chocolates is not my favorite. Let me start off by saying the shop is darling. They have display cases with all sorts of chocolates. They were also having a sale that if you buy one Valentine's Day box of chocolates you get one free. I almost caved in but I am very content on the decision that I chose not to buy them. I am a Neuhaus man. But I was walking around and stumbled upon Aigner. I'm not going to make this a huge review. I just simply wanted to say that I prefer other chocolates. The staff was friendly.

I ordered many boxes of chocolates from here. The chocolates were fine but they all expired in 2 months (which was not communicated). Do not recommend unless you plan to consumer right away
