first time coming in and the chocolate was pretty good! they make them in house which is neat. i liked the lemon chocolate the most. the others were good but a little too rich for my taste.

the ice cream with toffee was probably my favorite. soft served ice cream with crunchy bits of toffee.

it is on the pricey side but i still
enjoyed my experience and the food items nonetheless. the outdoor seating is nice and is dog friendly.

Videri chocolate factory is divine. They actually make their chocolates here in this building. You’re able to tour the facility and if you participate in a scavenger hunt you get a chocolate treat for completing it. You’re also able to sample their chocolates, and they have a healthy variety. Most of their chocolates are dairy free. Videri sells chocolates and soft serve ice cream, while inside the same building there is Black and White which sells coffee. The sitting area inside is cozy and they have free WiFi. There is also a nice patio area to sit beside the building and also some benches outside of the entrance. This is a high quality and super friendly local business. They sell the perfect chocolate gifts for your loved ones. If you’re in the area you definitely need to treat yourself here.

I almost gave them four stars because it’s so expensive BUT their chocolate is so good..

I have been here multiple times - it makes a great gift, especially because it is made right in Raleigh. They have a good mix of truffle style and bars. Their hot chocolate is really good too!

An added bonus is that they are attached to Black & White Coffee, another great Raleigh company

We did the self guided tour taking both the laminated sheet and the QR codes. We liked the chocolate tasting and blight interesting chocolate and chocolate covered toffee to bring home. Such a fun old fashioned high quality chocolate factory.

Our last stop before leaving the town! They have really fascinating and elaborate chocolate making machines and educate us every step of the way. You can smell very fragrant and nice chocolate smell the moment you walked through the shop. You can ask for samples too! The lady there was very nice and willing to share more about the chocolates that you're getting. We also got sipping chocolate, which is really interesting because I never had sipping chocolate before! It was thick, a little tangy, but a really nice flavor.
