If you’re looking for a little Valentine’s weekend rendezvous – look no further than Newbury Street – where the shop-lined streets recently welcomed newcomer, Hotel Chocolat.

The UK chocolate shop chain opened in Boston just last month, bringing with it scores of chocolate delicacies, drinks, desserts and plenty of unique treats.

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Hotel Chocolat is selling a wide selection of special treats, perfect for you and your boo. This weekend, the two of you could also sit in Hotel Chocolat’s cafe with a salted caramel hot chocolate – or a peppermint hot chocolate (whichever you prefer).

The chocolate cafe and cocoa bar offers a selection of drinking chocolates, perfect for this wintertime weather – as well as chocolate coated cookies that make a pretty sweet accompaniment to the hot chocolate (if I do say so, myself).

While you’re there, you can pick up a Valentine’s Goody Bag or one of their many heart-shaped gift boxes, filled with chocolate pralines, real champagne truffles, smooth caramels and other little treats.

The store also sells quite a few unique (if not, deliciously strange?) gift options. For instance, who knew cocoa could be used in bath oils, pesto, or candles? Not me. But it sure all smells, tastes and looks absolutely sumptuous.

You’ll have to check out the shop for yourself but in the mean time, take a look at our pictures of Hotel Chocolat in the slideshow below. And read more about Hotel Chocolat, here.
