Beryl’s Chocolate Shop & Museum

“With Chinese New Year approaching, my wife and I were thinking about what to buy for our friends. We wanted something simple yet festive, and after some thought, chocolates felt like the safest and most cheerful option. Beryl’s was the obvious choice, being a well known local chocolate brand, so we headed to Beryl’s Chocolate Shop and Museum. The shop was rather crowded when we visited. There were tourists browsing and a few school trips as well, which gave the place a slightly bustling feel. It did not feel rushed, but it was certainly lively. The main attraction is, of course, the wide variety of chocolates on display. We were pleased to find Chinese New Year special selections, which made it easy for us to pick appropriate gifts. Besides chocolates, they also sell ice cream, which I would recommend trying. It was a pleasant surprise and a nice way to cool down while exploring the shop. There is also a café for those who prefer to sit and relax. In the end, we bought a few boxes for our friends and felt content with our decision. It may not be a long visit, but it is definitely worth stopping by, especially if you are looking for locally produced chocolates for festive occasions.”

“Splendid atmosphere with chocolate aesthetic, interesting way of presenting the chocolate history, understandable for all ages. Got interactive quizzes for visitors. Also, I love the macarons and bought 3 bags of chocolates here.”

“The gallery aren't that big but good enough to learn about the history of not only beryls but chocolate on its own. Pro tips do grab those rejected chocolate since it still taste dang good 😭😭”

“Amenities wise, you have to park a bid further than the place. Best to visit during weekdays than weekends. A very small place, no tour is required as you can view all the historic items at level 1 that is used for chocolate making and other relevant history. After the round, you can go to the shop downstairs to purchase Beryl's very own chocolates. There are 2 sections. One is boxed/canned chocolates and the other is open hand-made freshly made chocolates and ice cream. Tastes very exquisite. But it's expensive, so be prepared for it. Its not cheap. Few places to snap photos. A good short trip.”
