Baristas can make a fabulous cup of coffee, but chocolate -- both hot and cold -- is what Mink is all about. This unique chocolate cafe serves exceptionally fine chocolate beverages made with special spices and ingredients (like chipotle). Their little handcrafted (made in Vancouver) chocolate bars are heavenly, and the bonbons . . . well, try one and you'll know what I mean.

Chocolate bars with flavours like peanut butter and jelly milk chocolate, or the Open in Case of Emergency (dark ganache with mint and Kentucky bourbon), as well as individual bonbons and hand-made truffles.
