Ghiradelli Chocolate Shop.

By Lauren Matthews

The orignal Ghiradelli Chocolate Shop is a must-visit for those harbouring a sweet-tooth.

All you need is love. And a little chocolate from time-to-time.

Located in Ghiradelli Square in the Fisherman’s Wharf Area, you’ll find this hugely popular chocolate shop. The store also houses an ice cream parlour that serves up delectable milkshakes, floats, cones, desserts and sundaes.

The locals would call this place a tourist trap simply because it’s so packed. So if you can’t be bothered with the queues and the wait for a treat from the parlour, just buy some of their world-famous chocolate, my personal pick is the Extremely Dark Salted one – edible heaven.
