When the very first Hotel Chocolat shop opened its doors to guests in North London in 2004, it was the start of a revolution in British chocolate. Two entrepreneurs, Angus Thirlwell and Peter Harris, were on a mission to make chocolate exciting again. Today, we have 126 stores, as well as cafés, restaurants, outlets, and factory stores. We’ve opened our first three boutiques in Copenhagen and we have a hotel on our working cacao farm in the Caribbean. It’s been a busy period of change and growth, but everything we do is still guided by the three basic values that we started with – and it always will be.
