Ana Bandeira Chocolates
48 Main St, Florence, MA
Crema's Take
“Ana Bandeira Chocolates in Florence is a gem for anyone serious about European-style chocolate and coffee, with reviewers raving about their rich 80% dark chocolate hot chocolate and expertly crafted cappuccinos that pair beautifully with fresh pastries and a proper sit-down breakfast. The cozy, intimate vibe invites you to linger over a leisurely meal or pastry, and their artisanal approach extends to house-made treats like molasses and chocolate chip cookies that locals can't stop talking about. While their vegan options are limited, what they do make—from light omelets to creamy soups—shows real care in execution, making this a worthwhile detour for slow coffee moments in western Massachusetts.”

Had an incredible European hot chocolate made with their 80% dark chocolate. It was delicious, but a small fortune. We also had their vegan molasses cookie and the chocolate chip cookie, both of which were decent. But those three things cost us nearly $20!
Great coffee spot in downtown Northampton! They make really good coffee. I just wish they had at least more vegan items; I think right now they only make a soup. Really the only reason my partner and I don't go too often
Oh how wonderful this place is!!! I cannot wait to go back!!! I love it all. Had a perfect piece of cheesecake and a cappuccino. Fabulous!!! Took away some chocolates for later and they are absolutely delicious. Love the atmosphere too, very relaxing, some classic jazz was playing and I disappeared into the cheesecake as if it were a surrealist dream. The kind young man behind the counter was very helpful when I asked about the holiday pies. I am planning my next trip even now! I knew this place would be fabulous as soon as I saw it, and I was right. You’ll love it too. Five stars plus on everything!!!!!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Well. Who knew? I’ve been here for a delicious pastry from time to time, but I am now sitting outside eating the most delicious breakfast I have had all year! It is a light, delicious omelette with cheddar and amazing mushrooms. Came with an English muffin, strawberry jam with whole strawberries in it, and a side salad for goodness sake. I am not exaggerating. Wins the best breakfast award, and I am a connoisseur of breakfasts!
This is a nice cozy small coffee shop. I ordered the spicy hot chocolate, but I personally did not enjoy the spicy aspect of it, too spicy for me, gave me a tummy ache and couldn’t finish it. Also tried the key lime pie, it tasted delicious, but I found it was too sweet for my liking. They have food, coffee, tea and regular hot chocolate that I would want to come back to try.
