This is one of our favorite spots to visit while we're at our cottage in Pittsfield. We always make sure to make a trip over. The mochaccino is heavenly as is the hot cocoa. The truffles are absolutely to die for!! Omg the flavors are amazing, we love every one that we've tried. They are definitely pricey but worth every penny! Sometimes they have a discounted bag of mixed truffles that are misshapen which is an awesome deal because I can tell you from experience, they taste the same!!

Read moreI think "WOW" is pretty justified here. Artful chocolatiers are hard to find anywhere in the U.S. in my experience, but there is one right here in the Berkshires.
Everything we've tried at Chocolate Springs is excellent, though we like the delightful variety of bonbons and the fact that many aren't too sweet. That said, one glance in the display case will confirm for you that this chocolate taken to another level, but the quality of the tastes and textures actually matches the artistry of the presentation.
As an added plus, the hand-pulled espresso drinks here are better than most other cafes in the region -- even those that specialize in coffee.
