Hatch Family Chocolates

My husband brings me home a box of assorted chocolates every time he visits Salt Lake. All of them are excellent, but the peanut butter milk choc candies are splendid! They have just a sprinkle of sea salt on top that really sets them off. I'm waiting for them to begin shipping so I can send to friends on the east coast. I'm very particular, and these chocolates are nothing short of special! more

I work right near Hatch's new location next to LDS hospital. I used to be right near another chocolate store on 7th & 9th next to Liberty Park, and it's been years since I bought any chocolates from them or anywhere else. Watched this new Hatch location being built and thought I'd stop in there last night after work. I was really disappointed. For one thing, the price was $1.60 for one little piece of chocolate. I love chocolate just as much as the next person but to me, there is Bad Chocolate and Good Chocolate, and of the Good Chocolate, there's not a real lot of variation or great ""degrees"". I think putting a very high price on what is going to be Good Chocolate is a bit presumptuous when just starting out. I decided to go with what I knew for sure I'd like: Vanilla Cream ... remembering that texture and taste of running my tongue around the inside hollow shell of a piece of dark chocolate for that one dollop of creamy vanilla. Not possible with theirs. Theirs is a chalky white paste filling, not creamy not runny in the least, even a little dry. Did I just get a ""lemon"" vanilla cream instead? Maybe so. It had the nearly identical consistency to the mint of a giant York Peppermint Pattie!? That's fine for what it is, but it's certainly not ""creamy""! more

I came all the way from San Antonio with my wife's payroll conference to have a great experience with Steve hatch and his Choclates shop.I had an assortment of chocolate s candys that were scrupulous .Steve even took time out of busy schedule to take a picture with me. more

This is a great little chocolate house. I feel lucky to have them in our neighborhood and it's a wonderful delight whenever I send these chocolates out to family. All I've ever gotten was rave reviews from people when they get a little chocolate from me here in SLC, and its thanks to Hatch Family Chocolates! more

Being I life long resident of the Salt Lake County area, I had never heard of Hatch Family Chocolates, until the release of their TV Show. ""The Little Chocolatiers"" . After seeing this we were intrigued and had to try it! We were greeted by the wonderful sweet aroma of chocolate and greeted by a smiling Steve, the owner, as we passed in the door way. The staff was helpful, knowledgeable and very friendly. The chocolates, regardless of the flavor was smooth, creamy and truly decedent. It will certainly be the go to place for gifts in the future. The only thing that would have made this any better, would being able to spend more time there! And obviously discovering it sooner! AWESOME! Pros: Wonderful selection, great staff Cons: A little inconvieint , yet worth it. more

i was dissapointed to see that the managers""hatches"" were not appt to hiring a woman who had type 1 diabetes who was not ale to eat much of the hocolate with out insulin( ig ) Pros: intresting taste Cons: they are not very genuine more

I thought I'd had the best key lime pie ever, until I had the Hatch Family key lime pie. Rich, tangy and thick, with a graham cracker crust, their key lime pie is outrageous! Not to be outdone by the Pot De Creme. WHOA!!!! Seriously, I wanted to die......in a good way. Pros: awesome selection or delicious sweets more

Hatches has the best hot chocolate I have ever had. Everytime I come to Salt Lake, (I live in Chicago), I visit the store! I would highly recommend Hatches to anyone looking for great chocolate exprience in Salt Lake City. Family owned, hand crafted chocolate traditions, handed down from generations. \r \r Pros: Great taste, fantastic customer service with a smile! Cons: Only get to visit once or twice a year! more

Certainly the best chocolate in Utah and among the best in the US. (Having lived in New York, Chicago, and Philadelphia, I feel reasonably confident in this statement.) Selections change from day to day, but the great and friendly service does not. Also sells wonderful ice cream. Prices are fair. more

Hatches has the best hot chocolate I have ever had in my entire life. It was so creamy and tasty! I loved every minute of it! Also, their pumpkin ice cream was amazing! I would highly recommend Hatches to anyone looking for a special treat in Salt Lake City. Pros: Hours, Product, Customer Service Cons: If I had to say something...my hot chocolate was too hot :) more

Hatch Family Chocolates singlehandedly made a chocolate lover out of me. Always filled with an impressive selection of chocolate, I have yet to find a selection that I didn't like. The chocolate covered strawberries, and raspberries are a must. Other favorites are the chocolate covered gummy worms, the chocolate haystacks and the carmels. If your not in the mood for chocolate, they have really good ice cream. Steve and Kate couldn't be any nicer, and make it impossible to simply drive by the shop without stopping by. I have yet to find a chocolate shop with better service and chocolate. Pros: Selection, Quality, Service Cons: Parking more

Stopped by for our first time after living in SLC for 3 years! How dumb are we to have passed this place up? So friendly! So yummy! Will definitely go back and refer many people! Pros: Good food, good service, good quality. more

...or should I call it Drinking Chocolate? It is divine. And the Pots de Creme are also a taste phenomenon. We live in the 'hood, and really love walking over, even really late because they have great late hours. But if I moved away, I would definitely make the trip back. Steve and Katie are always there giving fantastic service, as is all the staff. Stop here for amazing chocs and more. Pros: handmade chocs, divine desserts, excellent service more

Very nice people, and a great shop with Farr's, Italian sodas, excellent coffee, deserts, and the best chocolates in Salt Lake City! Pros: location, service, quality Cons: Great chocolates, but rather expensive more

Best Hot Chocolate anywhere. Love Steve and Kate! You must go here. Open late (11) everyday but Sunday. more
