Venture Chocolate and Wine
605 W King St, Boone, NC
Crema's Take
“Venture is a genuine third place in Boone that seamlessly blends house-made chocolate, specialty coffee, and wine into one inviting retreat—think Italian café tucked into a mountain town. Beyond the excellent espresso drinks, their in-house sipping chocolate and artisanal confections are the real draw, paired with a newly expanded space that includes a library, tea bar, and outdoor deck that feels intentionally designed for lingering. Whether you're stopping in for an after-dinner treat, setting up your laptop for the afternoon, or meeting someone special, the warm service and cozy atmosphere make it feel less like a shop and more like a beloved local secret.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu. Family friendly.

The chocolate is top notch and the service is amazing. Our favorite spot just got better when they added more seating, a library, a tea bar, and an outside deck. The new space is very cozy and inviting. We love this spot. We highly recommend.
Me and my boyfriend came here tonight and loved it! The upstairs features a chocolate bar, with chocolates made in house! They also offer coffees and sipping chocolate, which I tried and it was super creamy, rich, and delicious! Upstairs, they also sell books, dried flowers,…
