If you are looking for a chocolate hit, go to Koko Monk. I had a traditional dark chocolate with a subtle orange undertone. I should have taken a picture but I could hardly wait. Next time I'll try the Rosa chocolate one. Highly recommend 😋

Koko Monk is an apt name for the owner.  Chocolate is his religion. He revels in its benefits, its origins, its purity, and its ability to bring people together and heal the soul.  You have never had chocolate quite like this, and you will not be disappointed. The hot chocolates are an especially lovely treat. ♥️

Incredible chocolate experience I tried their signature hot chocolate, but had it cold as it was such a nice day. I have never had a cold "hot chocolate" before, and it doesn't sound great, but it was incredible. The owner is very knowledgable and particular about how he makes the hot chocolate which is great to see. All the chocolate treats look incredible. The best thing about this place is that it's not overly sweet - the chocolate is showcased at it's best!

I have be gluten and histamine concerns and was really happy to find this chocolate place that serves raw chocolate sweetened with monk fruit. It’s the first time I have been able to have chocolate without a flare up and I am so happy right now. This place is great for chocolate lovers with allergies

I first tried these chocolates four years ago when a client gave them to me as a gift. In December 2024, I called to order more online, and finally made it back to the shop in July 2025. Life got busy and I don’t live nearby, but it was worth the wait. I tried their summer special, rhubarb gelato, and wow, it was absolutely divine. The chocolates were just as incredible. I picked up a small box for my husband, a larger one as a gift, and two bags of their hot chocolate mix. Growing up in a rural area of Oaxaca, Mexico, we used to toast our own cacao beans and take them to the mill for grinding. This chocolate brought back those memories, only now with a more glamorous twist of flavors. Anyone comparing this to regular store-bought chocolate probably hasn’t gone through that process. The prices are fair, the service was fantastic, and I hope to visit again a few more times this summer. Truly excellent quality and warm, welcoming service.

We are absolutely delighted to hear that you've enjoyed our chocolates and that your return visit was worth the wait. It truly warms our hearts to know that our summer special rhubarb gelato was "absolutely divine" and that our chocolates brought back such cherished memories for you, especially given your connection to the rich cacao traditions of Oaxaca.

I'm a believer? I'm generally not a chocolate fan, and definitely not a hot chocolate fan, but Koko Monk's changed my perspective on chocolate - I didn't even know chocolate could taste this complex! Koko Monk has amazing drinking chocolate, which is thick, rich, spicy even and yet not overwhelming nor too sweet. They definitely take pride in their chocolatiering and it really shows in their products. The authentic hot chocolate is a good starting point imo as it will blow your socks off compared to the packaged stuff in the grocery stores - think of it as adult hot chocolate with dark chocolate complexity and bitterness. If you're a white chocolate fan, they have an equivalent that is surprisingly not that sweet (which I was floored by since white chocolate is always sickeningly sweet). Both are fantastic. Brunette bangle is also interesting - it has curry in the drink, which makes a lot of sense when you drink it. Curry and chocolate have a natural affinity together when I make curry so why not make it a drink? Cold testament plays on the sweet and spicy notes, if you're into that. Beyond the drinkable chocolate, I think the actual chocolate themselves also speaks volumes. The flavors tingle your palette and will bring your mouth on a roller coast. They describe the chocolate in flavor profiles which have valleys and crescendos, which you find hard to believe until you actually try it. Just follow their directions when consuming the chocolate (i.e. crunch it in your mouth and let it melt) and then you'll go through the rhythm of flavors. Personally I really liked the coco colada (guava) but all the individual pieces are great. The bars are also amazing and unique, particularly the jasmine tea choco bar. It's tea, it's chocolate and somehow neither overwhelms the other. Koko Monk is great and should definitely stop by.

Best chocolates I've ever tried This isn't our first time here but it will always be on our list to visit when we're in Vancouver. We were here 2 years ago and the place is still as great as ever! I'm a huge chocolate lover and I've tried chocolates almost everywhere I've ever been. These creations win hands down. Only chocolate that came close was in St. Augustine in Florida. You won't be disappointed with this place, I promise a unique and delightful experience.

The artistry that goes into the design of tastes, textures, and visual appeal of their truffles is astonishing and delicious 😋 yum. The hot chocolate menu is whimsical and has an excellent variety for milk and dark chocolate fans. Make sure to take notes on which ones you like so it's easier to re order the next time you go in. We've been going for years and delighted that they survived the covid years. This is a must go stop for us when we visit Vancouver.

Chocolate heaven When we arrived at Koko Monk the owner gave a 'guided taste sample' of some of his creations. He had us taste and then explore the emergence of one flavor after another from a single bite! That alone was worth coming to the store! There are simply amazing chocolates- each one a work of art- some with more common flavors, some very exotic, but all fantastic. Also chocolate bars made with raw cocoa- I love the Matcha chocolate! And you can take a break from your day with a cup of beautifully served, most delicious and unique hot chocolate. Loved it!

I ordered the Raw 75% Dominican Rizek cause I am on a restricted diet for health reasons and the ingredients list looked very healthy. I was pleasantly surprised at the balance of dark and sweet in the bar. Truly beautiful and satisfying! I love that they mention the zinc which is great for your immune system. Thank the lord for dark chocolate

Did I die and go to heaven !?!?!?! Paul is so passionate about single-origin chocolate and it shows! We have never tasted anything so wonderfully authentic; the quality is undeniable. The cold and hot chocolate drinks will prevent you from thinking, the raw chocolates will make your senses trip, and the baked goods will turn you into a vacuum cleaner. This is heaven in Kitsilano. As if this wasn't enough, you can also get real Turkish coffee and beautiful brass brewers, original Turkish delight, gift boxes, every fine chocolate confection you can think about, powders, chocolate-covered fruit and nuts, cacao butter, chocolate tea, protein bars, certified raw beans, and awesome jazz music to go with it all! If you are adventurous, have a "Talking Dirty with the Sun God" chocolate cold drink. If you are not that racy, have a "Sin and Salvation" you will not be disappointed! I so will have the Cosmic Rose or the Black Velvet next! I hear this is the only company dealing with single-source cacao... and I believe it, the taste is out of this world ! For chocolates, I went for the cardamom, the tequila, the passion fruit, and the "pillow fight" (popcorn and raspberry), I don't know what hit me, I WILL NEVER EAT COMMERCIAL CHOCOLATE AGAIN because it tastes like rubbish compared with the quality and sensual flavors I experienced here. Also a pleasure for the eyes; every piece is hand-painted! ....Art in the names, the production, and in the delivery! This place has my seal of goodness! I will definitely use these products in the future to seduce lovers, impress bosses, and sin with my friends. Ahhhhhh.
