A god insight into the history of chocolate and the sculptured displays at the end were very clever. A delicious treat awaited at the end.

For 7 euro's, you don't get much for your money. There is a semi-interesting history on the development of chocolate products through the ages with some old tea pots on display. There is a demonstration of making praline choc's at the end followed by a taster which is by far the best thing about visiting this place. We visited during... More

This is a lovely little museum that is very visually informative and fun. It is spread out over a number of floors and the guide cards tells you where to go and in which order. The chocolate demo at the end is really interesting and fun and the pralines were very yummy! Worth a visit if you have time :)

The museum is informative..but it would be better if more interactive available. There was free chocolate and oppurtunity to see the process of making chocolate

This was one of the places my children were looking forward to see. We had just been to Cadbury world recently so I was intrigued to see how similar/different this museum would be. This museum had loads on information about the history of chocolate and its effect on Belgium. My kids thought there was much more information rather than Cadbury's... More

So for my €7 I get three tiny tiny floors of Mayan and Incan history, mixed in with a bit of Victorian irrelevance, none of which bears any relevance to chocolate! I know it's a museum but the last time I was this bored I was nine! The only remotely saving grace was the 3 minute chocolate making live demonstration... More

We enjoyed our visit on a wet day in Brugge. Interesting and plenty to taste, the demo of the actual making of chocolate was worth it. Recommended.

We visited this museum and enjoyed our tour - if you have never been round a chocolate museum then you'll enjoy what's on offer. Having been to the likes of Cadbury World we had seen it all before however. The demonstration of making truffle chocolates was very good and it was worth the visit though perhaps unsurprisingly the history is... More

We bought a combo-ticket for both the Frietmuseum and the Chocolate Museum. Several floors, with history, sources, products, chocolate production demonstrations with tasting samples, museum shop with chocolates to purchase; only the dark chocolate with cocoa 70 percent plus need to be considered by us. The higher the percentage the more cocoa and the less sugar. Above 80 percent it... More
