Bettina Corallo

SO good!! To be fair, it's hard for me to not fall in love with anywhere that specializes in chocolate, but Bettina & Niccolo Corallo somehow takes their chocolate game to the next level. I swung by this gorgeous little coffee and chocolate cafe on a Thursday evening and decided to sample both temperature extremes with their small hot chocolate and small chocolate sorbet. The sorbet was outstanding and truly worth all the hype -- I genuinely don't understand how they could possibly create something so creamy and rich without any milk, but they somehow made it work. On the other end (and probably more season-appropriate), the hot chocolate was equally amazing. It was remarkably rich, and not overly sweet. It is really thick, though, and has a pretty high proportion of cacao, so it is a bit challenging to drink a large amount. I was glad I had opted for the small size, which was perfect for sipping as I snuggled into one of their shop's four seats to read for an hour or two. They also have a ton of specialty chocolates that I will have to check out during my next visit! They all seem delightful, but I was a bit chocolate-d out at that point. The shop was super cozy to hang in for a bit, and the staff is super friendly. There, unfortunately, isn't a ton of space or seating, and the shop is quite popular, so you definitely have to get lucky or be super strategic about when you swing by if you want to stay for a while.

€5 for chocolate sorbet and €4 for brownie. I enjoyed both as I love decadent things, and the chocolate taste is intense. The brownie is super rich and moist, with so much butter content that it creates a little oily pool in the wax paper. It's also very tiny and thin, although definitely makes up for it in decadence. For the small sliver you get, it's really expensive. Sorbet was good. Like a soft serve texture, although I actually prefer Niva Gelato's chocolate sorbet (just down the street, if they carry it). I do love seeing artisan makers excel at their craft, so it was cool to try, and learn about the story!

It definitely worths the rave. Out of all the chocolate shops listed as great in Lisbon, this is indeed one that truly deserves its stars and enthusiastic reviews. If you like only milk chocolate, you are in trouble, it has one assortment only. But if you are more adventurous and would like to give new flavors a try, here is the place. The prices are high and I hope they will stay the same because the quality is exquisite. We went there on a Sunday at exactly 2:00 PM. Five minutes later, the shop was full of people! A very nice detail: the give you on a house a piece of chocolate of your choice with every coffee ordered. Yummy! We tried one with sesame seeds, one with salted caramel and one with pistachio. The young man behind the counter, with his the facial features of an ancient Roman emperor, shy smile, infinite patience, impecable manners, and perfect English, made our whole tasting and shopping experience even more agreeable. Hope it will stay the same, it's a little gem that a so very few left nowadays. Congratulazioni!!👏🙏

Chocolate art at it’s most elevated and purest form. My dear friend Danai took me, my wife and a friend to this shop while on a walking tour of Lisbon. All the chocolates on offer are 50% dark or more and there is a wide assortment to choose from. We tried various styles starting with hazelnuts, cherry, toffee and turmeric flavoured dark chocolate along with a take away bag. Once you try this it’s very impossible to go back to normal chocolates. The coffee is brilliant too and the staff are a cheerful and knowledgeable bunch. Very cozy atmosphere. Must stop place in Lisbon for chocolate lovers.

This little store is easy to overlook but it is one of the hidden gems of the neighborhood. If you like chocolate the aroma will drive you crazy from the first steps in the door. They hand process chocolate mostly, but not exclusively, dark and they even roast their own coffee blend. In summer you cannot miss their raw chocolate ice cream and their smoothie. They offer pralines of such high quality and low sugar content, that my friend was recommended to come here by her doctor, seriously.

Go here! Get the hot chocolate elixir. It was simply amazing. Maybe the best, most unique chocolate I've tasted in my life. Almost savory, a little smokey. Delicious.

The best coffee and chocolate in town. Super friendly team, great coffee & a huge selection of tasty homemade chocolate bars (with ginger, salt & peppers, nuts, 100% cocoa, etc…) highly recommended

Overall a bad experience. Hot choc was good. Iced chocolate was a small cup of ice with a dribble of the same hot chocolate poured over it. Both were €5.!!! Add a small piece of choc cake…two fingers wide and the bill was €18.!! To round out the experience the whole counter where you order was blocked by a group majorly entitled Australian 30 somethings who were far to old to be behaving like rude children shouting and leaning on top and an elderly couple trying to enjoy their experience. Staff needed to step up and ask them to move along….but didn’t. Just another symptom of the mass tourism plague and badly reared people who should stay home instead of inflicting themselves on the global community
