Absolutely amazing experience! So informative and very fun. Went on a full walk around the museum and all the information was so interesting! The garden is so hot, but wonderful nonetheless! The staff were very nice and we got free chocolate! Fantasy bars only costed €8 and are delicious! Would definitely recommend for all ages!! 🍫🍫🍫

What an incredible experience! More than just a chocolate museum and a chocolate factory, it was an amazing learning experience. Came out with an expansive knowledge about the history of chocolate, how chocolate is made and how in recent times, Lindt has also embraced sustainability. It was truly an eye opening experience. A must visit for both adults and children.

Charlie & the chocolate factory! Really nice experience - chocolate served at every corner. You get to make your own chocolate and learn it's processing and history at the same time. Pro tip: It goes full day and it's walking distance from Neumarkt, so no need to rush. Also try their 28€ breakfast for 2. Every penny worth it.

This restaurant is incredibly popular during weekends and holidays. If you want to secure a seat, especially if you’re in a group, book a table in advance. The food and drinks are trendy and innovative. The atmosphere can be a bit crowded, reminiscent of a Kantine. However, the service is great, attentive, and fast.

really cool museum! you get a really comprehensive understanding of how the cocoa bean is harvested, and overall how the chocolate industry runs. you also get to sample some chocolate which is really cool, you watch it being prepared in front of you! they have a great selection of chocolates you can buy as well, from bars, to truffles, to cakes etc. they are on the pricy side obviously, so keep that in mind. it was really busy when we visited but it was still easy to navigate. would recommend!
