Reviews for Ghirardelli Chocolate Experience in San Francisco, CA

If you like chocolate, you will love this place. Nice outdoor setting with fountains decorated for the season. We went in... October hence the pumpkins. Plenty of shops, eateries and outdoor seating. General public restrooms were clean but lacking aproper ventilation system. We were unsure where to go at first, but if you walk up the side street there?s an entrance into theactual square. From the street level that is down from Fisherman?s wharf, you would miss most of the experience. See picattached, walk straight up that hill. Entrance on your right. Sundaes were good. Expensive but big portions. Definitelyshareable. Read more

Fantastic place for a dessert after a nice walk around the area, along the beach. There are plenty of shops in this square... too! We had the World Famous Hot Fudge Sundae, really good, not too sweet, and everything was done just right. Highlyrecommended when you are in town. Read more

Must visit place if you like Ghirardelli and chocolate. They Sunday fudge is classic and seems pretty good. They sell fudge at... all places so you can skip a long queue at the main store. Coffee etc is pretty good as well. Environment at the square isvibrant. We got the parking at the square also. Was tight and corners are sharp. Read more

We wanted to get some Ghirardelli while in San Francisco and it did not disappoint! We got two Ocean Beach sundaes with sea salt... caramel and wow. That was one of the best desserts I?ve ever had in my life. The chocolatey waffle cone, caramel, the littlechocolate bar in the cone, and of course the ice cream were all so rich with flavor and delicious! Definitely recommend! Read more

Great place to pick up a dessert and/or gift. This shop sells many kinds of sweet things, both hot or cold. The prices aren't... actually that bad, especially for a tourist spot. There's usually a line, but if you really want to get inside, it's worth thewait. Ordering is quick if you know what you want. Past the registers, there are chocolate-making machines in operation withsigns telling you what they're doing. The staff wear nice uniforms and are very helpful, if you need help. There's seatingindoors, but you can also take your order to go. If you'd like to purchase a gift, they sell different sizes of containers foryou to fill with chocolate, teddy bears, and gift cards. Being wary of spending too much, I got a small "Classic Hot Cocoa"which was about $5. It was very rich and decadent and piping hot. If you order a one, you should wait for a few minutes so itcools down, or you'll burn your tongue like I did. Overall, I recommend checking this place out at least once. Read more

Holy Chocolate ???? ????. This was an amazing experience!!! We each got sundaes ???? and we didn't realize that they were going... to be so huge!!! They were incredible ???? . The Chocolate experience was great as well. The entire square was neat and familyfriendly. I'm so glad that we walked there from the Wharf. Read more

The best ice cream sundaes I?ve ever had. I?ve been here a zillion times and finally decided to write a review. I?ve tried their... world famous sundae, salted caramel sundae, brownie sundae, strawberry sundae and couple of shakes like the double chocolate andtheir mocha. Everything was amazing. I?ll keep going back to this spot. Apart from their ice creams and chocolates the locationis amazing too. You get to see how their chocolates are made. The customer service is pretty good as well.

Always a must while visiting San Francisco. I love their hot fudge. Also wasn?t aware that the have THREE locations right in the... same square. The original sit down location where they have their chocolate exhibit, a quick to go service location just a fewdoors down and a small order counter downstairs on the main floor overlooking the park and beach! It felt less busy so we werehappy to come multiple times to enjoy their sundaes! One of the times we ordered at the quick service and took our sundaes to goand enjoyed them on the beach while we watched the sunset. Read more
