Welcome to Mink Chocolates Factory and Cafe, a hidden gem nestled in the heart of Vancouver at 8410 Ontario St. This elegant chocolate café is not just a place to grab a coffee; it’s an immersive experience that delights the senses. As soon as you step inside, you’ll be enveloped by the rich, intoxicating aroma of freshly brewed espresso and delectable chocolate, creating an atmosphere of warmth and indulgence.

At Mink, the menu is a chocolate lover’s dream. You can enjoy a variety of exquisitely crafted espresso drinks, including the velvety mocha (CA$5.75), a harmonious marriage of dark chocolate and robust coffee that dances on your palate. If you prefer something chilled, their iced mocha has garnered rave reviews, like that of one satisfied customer who declared it the best she’s ever had, perfectly balanced without overwhelming sweetness. For a unique twist, try the Minkhiato (CA$4.25), or the delightful affogato (CA$5.00) for a refreshing pick-me-up.

The richness doesn’t stop at coffee; Mink’s hot chocolate options are equally enticing. Choose between their 38% or 70% cacao options for a classic experience, or indulge in a vegan hot chocolate (CA$6.00) that rivals even the creamiest dairy versions. And on a hot day, the frozen chocolate (CA$5.25) or frozen mocha (CA$5.75) are perfectly refreshing treats that combine their famous chocolate with ice.

The star of the show, however, is undoubtedly the chocolates themselves. Each artisan piece is crafted with care, showcasing unique flavors and captivating presentations. Customers rave about the variety and richness of the offerings, with one enthusiast noting the exceptional quality of ingredients and creativity behind each truffle and chocolate bar. As Phyllis Tsui exclaims, this is one of the best chocolate shops in town, where high-quality chocolate meets imaginative flavor profiles.

The atmosphere at Mink is perfect for unwinding or spending quality time with friends and family. With inviting decor and a warm ambiance, it’s an ideal spot for coffee breaks or casual meetings. Whether you’re a chocolate aficionado or simply looking for a cozy place to enjoy a lovely beverage, Mink Chocolates Factory and Cafe is sure to satisfy your cravings and leave you longing for more.

Don’t just take our word for it; join the many satisfied customers like Carmen Lee, who was simply taken aback by the craftsmanship of her mocha, and Vanessa Goldade, who appreciated the attentive customer service even while ordering from afar to Calgary.

Always great espresso drinks either hot or cold. Of course, the chocolates are great too albeit I have not tried ALL of them as this will take time. Not the cheapest place but I would rather support Mink than the other coffee companies.

Absolutely delicious chocolates! Each piece has a unique and rich flavor that makes it a delightful experience. The variety of flavors is amazing, and the design and presentation are just as impressive. You can tell a lot of care goes into making them. Highly recommended!

One of the best chocolate shops in town. They have a wide variety choices - their chocolate bars' flavours are creative and delicious. They use high quality ingredients to produce not only the chocolate base but also the complimentary flavours. A must try if you haven't had their bars or truffles!

The atmosphere of the café also added to the overall enjoyment. I highly recommend visiting for a delicious mocha that’s clearly made with passion!

I ordered chocolates to Calgary and the customer service was great! I am very picky on my chocolates and I absolutely love the quality of the chocolate used and how the chocolate filling is not too sweet or overpowering. I am definitely on ongoing customer and hope that there will be retailers selling this chocolate in Calgary!

First time visiting with kids, we like the atmosphere as soon as we walked in. I wanted something cold, so the staff suggested ice mocha. She was confident that I would like it, and amazingly I did adore it. I hadn’t had mocha for a long time because the ones I had before were all too sweet and couldn’t taste coffee. Mink chocolate’s ice mocha is the best! My kids’ hot chocolate was smooth and tasty!
