CHOCOSINA — Local services in Montreal

Just had a TERRIBLE experience here. I spent $90 buying chocolate. They have a gummy bar so I tried one gummy the size of my nail. The woman behind the counter starts yelling « you’re not allowed to taste the gummies.» Mind you, if I had walked in off the street I get it but you have $90 worth of merchandise I am about to purchase and you’re yelling at me to not taste a one penny gummy???? In a chocolate shop where EVERYONE offers free chocolate and tastes when you are buying a bunch of stuff? And the owners claim of « health » regulation is fake because first of all, there are tongs for use, and secondly the attendant said nothing about health. She claimed that it’s because it’s a small business and they CAN’T AFFORD SAMPLES ! I told her to check herself and not to shame customers and she repeated that they’re a small business so no samples.

I won’t say the lady was cheating cause I didn’t check, however I will definitely let everyone I know who want buy things from here be careful!!

PS: we didn’t request anything special. what the kids did just grabbed the candies from the counter. and no one explained the prices difference or helped on anything . poor...

Their chocolate bars are the best. The favourite among the four of us was the 66% dark chocolate with salt crystals on top. The jar of coco powder has a full 10/5 star review. Absolutely a must to go see and try. They have an amazing assortment of candies as well. We were there strictly to get a fix of delicious chocolate. The shop is so sweet and perfectly situated in a quiet street off of Saint Paul St West in the heart of Old Quebec. I might have to drive the 2 hours from Ottawa to get more of the coco powder. I loved how helpful the staff, a kind gentleman, was with...
