House of Anvers

Good and interesting selection of chocolates. Nice being able to see the factory in action. Tried the tasting pack of orange fudge and signature drops. Bought numerous packs as gifts, but none for ourselves, as found the chocolate a bit sweet for our taste.

The dark chocolate is 64%, and we usually prefer 70% at least. Glad to have popped in thanks to the Tasting Trail site.

The best hot chocolate I've tried in a long time. The chili and spice hot chocolate as well as the mint was really nice. The spice hits you then the chili then the chocolate. The flavours are just right and none was over powering the other. Best part is it is not too sweet like others. The mint had a great balance as well. The Eggs benny was good too. The ham with it was delicious. I would have preferred a little bit more moisture and runnier egg.
The staff were great and very friendly. Heaps of parking including for caravans. Easy to get to and find along the main road.
Both the inside and outside seating was homey and pleasant. Highly recommended and would definitely go back.

We had a few hours to spend before flying back home and decided to drive about 1 hour to House of Anvers. I had no expectations whatsoever coming in here, but I left with such a great feeling. There were a chocolate factory, a beautiful garden, a chocolate shop, and a cafe. As it was lunch time, we went straight to the cafe and ordered some food. And wow, everything was exceptionally delicious, especially the salmon strudel 🤤😋 On top of that, staff were friendly, attentive, and helpful as well. I couldn’t be any happier. Worth the drive and would definitely come back!

I’ve always loved this chocolate factory. There’s a very small museum around the back and a cafe attached. I haven’t tried the food before. The actual chocolate shop always has free samples. They sell the most delicious fudge and truffles in the world! If you’re in Tassie you’ve GOT to try Anvers chocolate.

If you love chocolate, call in here. Able to watch the chocolate being made, fudge and snowballs delectable, try the chilli chocolate , plenty of parking, cafe, and plenty of space to sit outside

Loved the whole Anvers experience. We firstly looked through the little museum, watched a worker making milk chocolate truffles then off to the shop. What a great array of products they had. There were sample bags containing half a truffle and a small handful of chocolate buds.

Shout out to the friendly and accomodating young staffs. Thanks for the great service.
We arrived during the peak lunch time and attended immediately.
We had the chocolate cake, which was rich, sweetly balanced and delicious. The chicken and cranberry toasted sandwich was generously stacked up with 3 slices of bread and lots of fillings. Can't leave without an iced chocolate, which was not overpowering with sweetness and rich with chocolate. Lastly, 500ml of the Black Inca beer by the Seven Shed makes it a great feast.

We rolled in as 15 people before they opened. We were treated amazingly by Chloe and we managed to all order coffees and food and we were done in an hour. Amazing staff member that I would employ in a flash!! Well done Chloe!!

the smoked salmon dishes were phenomenal, the fish was so fresh and it melted in your mouth. the baguette was especially delicious and fresh. the servings for the price were quite decent. the sweets were also quite nice, in particular the banana caramel was super yummy. both the hot chocolates were so sweet and creamy.

Food was great hot chocolate was amazing.
Chocolate shops was nice and nice you got a free sample

Great team and attentive staff. Very busy on weekends so worth to call and book a table. Excellent menu. The food we ordered, from hot drinks to desserts were scrumptious. It never disappoints.
There’s a chocolate museum, a playground and an alongside cottage which sales all the chocolate deliciousness.

Fun place that opens at 7 am which is great for Ferry people looking for breakfast. I’ve had brunch twice and attended a large birthday lunch group . Brunch by a real fire is charming and it was well cooked. The real test of a large group went fairly well. Meals arrived within minutes of each other by a succession of cheerful Staff. The more private Atrium area was warm on a windy Sunday too.

It's a cozy cafe with chocolate factory, and a playground outside. A nice place to come with family. I had dark choc raspberry mousse and really enjoyed it 🥰

It's easy to find the place feom the highway. There's a small parking area

love their chocolate, it is made locally from raw heritage varieties of Cocoa not mass produced commodity hybrid Cocoa! So they have chocolate you simply cannot get almost anywhere else. The museum is worth a look and they have good icecream sorbet and Gelato. The ground a Beautiful with a playground for the kids.

Must visit place in Tassie! The best ever hot chocolate I've enjoyed in Australia. Extravagantly creamy and rich with natural chocolate flavour! Staff is amazing and so quick! Very beautiful place indeed! Spacious parking and a children friendly garden. You could buy chocolate from a range of flavour, real authentic stuff.

Wonderful afternoon getting up close and personal with the native wildlife. Brilliant place that is well worth the visit.

This location on main ed between Latrobe and Devonport is a gem .the very best hot choc in Tas . Desserts that are perfect .staff are friendly local and generous .thanks🎯🥞🌞

This was the first stop after I came off the Spirit of Tasmania 3 years ago, so I had to come back.

And... it certainly did not disappoint! The waffles certainly scratched my itch for something sweet, and the cappuccino was very well made.

Thank you for another great sweet dining experience!!

Mmmmm Yummmm Yep, we indulged. Hot chocolate OMG it was sooooo goooood.

AND, we might have bought a hot chocolate kit to take home, and some dark chocolate raspberries (gone now LOL). They seemed to evaporate as soon as I opened the packet. We also bought a specialty chocolate each. They were very very nice! and they too disappeared real quick. For those that think we are chocoholics - you are absolutely right ;-)

Anvers is definitely worth a stop. They have a chocolate shop, a viewing area to watch the chocolate being made, a restaurant and a history area (very interesting). The hot chocolate - to die for, it was good. The building itself is an amazing old house that has so much character. It is special in its own right. One of the displays is a chocolate Tasmanian Devil. It is incredibly well done. Such talent!

There is plenty of parking and an overflow area out the back that is big enough for cars towing vans. It’s on the highway at Latrobe about 10km from the Spirit of Tasmania in Devonport.

We drove from Westbury, which took us about an hour.
