The Chocolate Tree (Bruntsfield)

• I had coffee and a chat with none other than Paddy Ashdown a patriarchal figure of British politics
• Airdrie (sorry people of Lanarkshire) and Peterhead (sorry folk in the north east of Aberdeenshire) but his advice was good and only bettered by the coffee served in the store
• I can confirm that the coffee was great and the cake and chocolate selections are brilliant too
• My latest obsession is their chai hot chocolate
• I have yet to go wrong with anything I've ordered from there
• I still love the fact it was recommended to me by a very civilised and knowledgeable eight year old
• The Chocolate Tree is like paradise
• The Chocolate Tree (Bruntsfield) is so so tempting that I can't help buying (and eating) stuff whenever I am in the area
• Hot chocolate from here with cream and marshmallows
• Gelato and rich chocolate to take home and you know you're done with a trip to paradise
• The Chocolate Tree is a chocolate lovers paradise
• I tried the dark chocolate hot chocolate which was rich and flavourful and the chocolate shot with churros for dipping
• The chocolate shot is divine it's a cup of pure
• The chocolate tree had a very welcome atmosphere and its decor was instantly warming
• The White chocolate hot chocolate was a favourite along with their sugary churros
• The staff were pleasant and the food was good although I feel the use of space within the cafe wasn't used wisely because there were very very limited seats
• The coffees and cakes were recommended to me
• The only reason I didn't rate 5 is that although the team were more than pleasant (and helpful)
• I'm an stickler for great service and pleasant was all it was
• The hazelnut hot chocolate is like a warm liquid Nutella dream in a mug
• The Mayan hot chocolate is definitely an acquired taste
• Because it is creamy even for full fat dairy ice cream
