Vegan box.

Vegan box.
Wouldn't buy more than a small box for anyone, a little boring after 1 of each of the 4,
So much more could be done to make an exceptional box of vegan chocs.
Pretty much like hotel Chocolat not to much effort or imagination but a token gesture.
Service excellent.

Don't go to a Hotel, Leonidas is better :)

Excellent Quality, presentation and service. Superfast delivery and response from Leonidas Brighton. In my opinion, and many would agree, the best chocolates money can buy. Very well recieved by my wife on Valentines Day. Many thanks to you all at the Brighton branch, you have just gained yet another repeat customer.

Excellent experience, chocolates and staff. Very professional. It was worth every penny. You have got to visit this shop.

I had one of the best customer service experiences at Leonidas Chocolate Brighton. The manager was exceptionally professional, kind, and attentive, going above and beyond to ensure my Valentine's gift was perfect. I ordered a selection of their delicious, authentic chocolates along with a teddy bear online, and he made sure everything was beautifully packaged and delivered promptly.

The chocolates were plentiful, available in a variety of mouthwatering flavours, and absolutely fantastic. Communication with the manager was seamless—he was incredibly accommodating, even allowing me to change my greeting card message at the last minute. Despite the original message already being printed, he thoughtfully used a new card to include my updated note.

This is a wonderful place with amazing staff and exceptional chocolates. If you’re looking for quality treats and outstanding service, I highly recommend visiting. I’ll definitely be shopping here again soon!
