The Chocolate Bar
Chocolate's a coffeehouse/bistro/bar that fills your mouth with pastries, paninis, house-made desserts, plus domestic and imported bottles, local brews on tap, artisanal wines, and signature cocktails. It has a 30-seat front lounge with dark-brown leather couches and booths, an appropriately chocolate-colored ceramic-glass-tiled bar, a white-bricked private room in back for up to 40 VIPs, and a back patio, all set in a 120-year-old building.
