Fodor's Review:

Britain's master chocolatier since 1875, this Mayfair shop specializes in traditional sweets (violet and rose-petal creams, for example) and was serving up beautifully packaged, high-quality chocolates long before most of the fashionable new brands appeared. Some of their "drawing room" boxes are real works of art, and their drinking chocolate—coarsely grated fine chocolate in a tin—is worth carrying home in a suitcase.
