Coco Monde is one of Darby Street’s most distinctive offerings. Opened in 2011, the chocolateria has carved out a unique niche - part café, part artisan chocolate shop, wholly worth a visit.
The commitment to in-house production sets it apart. Ice cream, honeycomb, marshmallows, and chocolate are all crafted on-site, meaning the quality and creativity can be controlled from start to finish. Seasonal and innovative flavours keep regulars coming back to see what’s new.
Beyond the sweet side of the menu, Coco Monde also serves breakfast, brunch, and the somewhat indulgent loaded fries that have developed their own following. Vegan options are available throughout the menu.
