Choco B — Restaurant in Allentown

Not a fan. I have been here twice since I’ve been staying at the hotel next door and have been disappointed both times. The man that works here is nice and the shop is nice and Im sure chocolate covered strawberries are probably fine but anything cooked on the spot…ehh…. The first time What drew me in was all of the appearance of the store itself and all of the yummy photos they have hanging and on the menu. I thought this would be a great surprise for a family breakfast only to be very let down. I ordered crepes, pancakes for the kids and a shake for my husband. Shake wasn’t bad but the food, NOT Edible! The crepes were so rubbery that I couldn’t cut it with a metal knife! Which means one of two things, too much flour or cooked on too low of a heat setting which is NOT OKAY! And the pancakes, looked like a straight up pile of slop! There was so much Nutella on them that you wouldn’t event know there were pancakes underneath! Ew…

So after boycotting this place for 3 weeks, the kids wanted ice cream so I figured “no one can mess that up right?” WRONG! I ordered a banana split…do you see a banana split anywhere in these photos? Nope. Well yeah it’s the container with all of the M&Ms and whipped cream! The ice cream scoops were so small and the majority of it was just candy..

That all being said, unless you like diabetes or a sugar rush for breakfast and a day of your kids going absolutely nuts;! I do...

I’m going give them a 3.8/5 stars, because they really are kind here. It’s always clean and the sweets are great, but if I’m being 100% honest? The phone etiquette is a bit awkward, the service is slow and the prices are a bit high for what the product is. Again, please don’t let this deter you. I still go from time to time, but if I may offer any constructive criticism? Maybe just picking up the pace a little bit. The price? Listen, it is what it is. It’s good, so I’ll pay for it when I’m craving sweets, but sometimes it feels a little unreasonable. One crepe (which leaves me hungry) is a good $10, rounded. Also, it take 15-20 minutes to make a crepe when there’s no one else waiting or there ordering. I would understand if it is busy, but it usually isn’t when I swing by. I am sorry, but I’m just being very honest in my review. I am not upset, but just offering some constructive criticism. Like I said, the sweets are great. Delectable, actually, but if si had to offer any constructive criticism? This...

I went here with a family member visiting from out of state on Valentine’s Day. We got the fettuccine crepe which was pretty good. They do charge $1 extra per any additional toppings. Making it very costly. I was very surprised the crepe wasn’t served warm, especially with the vanilla ice cream. They said it wasn’t supposed to be served warm as it cools down with the ice cream and whatnot. But I believe it’s definitely possible to have it warm if served immediately.

I am assuming it was the holiday that slowed down the whole process. Took about 45 minutes to get our order. Service was very slow and place was packed! I recommend going at a non peak time to get seating as it’s a small space. Decorations were great. Would definitely come back on a day where it’s not nearly as packed. Overall I feel like service was too slow. It needs to pick up a bit. Portion size was huge, good for two people. Parking can also be tricky so it’s good to go a...
