Hotel Chocolat, Leeds Trinity

Had a lovely hot chocolate, the whip topping is to die for. My friends had ice cream sundaes, which were equally delicious. Had a little wait as there was only one girl on the counter. But she was extremely apologetic and put extra strawberry topping in the sundaes as they were out of peach flavour. We used the toilets which were lovely and clean, with nice soap and hand cream.

A whistle-stop trip in to have a quick sit down and a drink during shopping. The store is easily accessible, nice and large and has a good amount of seating. The service is a little slow, but I have put this down to the fact that the drinks aren't quick to make - it's not like making a hot chocolate at home! I can highly recommend the chilli hot chocolate, it is wonderfully warming on a cold day. Initially I thought that it was expensive for the size of cup that you get given, but the quality is second to none (naturally) and with the chocolate cream on the top it is basically a meal in itself! The only reason this is 4* rather than 5* is that every time I have visited the tables have been dirty with cups and items still remaining on them. It may be that they have been short staffed over the year, but this does put me off meeting friends here!
