OOHHH YES! They are wonderful! Hard Chocolate shell exterior dusted with powdered sugar! Inside delightful champagne cream. Savor the flavor? Hard to do. Must have with a glass of Sparkling or red wine - If you can wait that long! More

Came across Haigh's chocolate shop by chance and I thought I was in heaven. The choices of chocolate is mind blowing. It took me awhile to decide what to buy, cause I just love the chocolate with more than 75% cocoa, and dark it must be.....muummmmm yummy. Sorry just drooling. Reasonably priced, depending on the the size and type and... More

This store is top of my list of Melbourne guilty pleasures. The chocolate is divine and their gifts are really beautiful and very Australian. A really great souvenir is the chocolate Bilby. More

I am a chocoholic and a real connoisseur of chocolate. There is a reason that "Australia Chocolate" isn't a brand known around the world. It's GOOD chocolate, not great. However, if I'm paying $2-$3 for one piece of chocolate it should be great chocolate. It's not. Very good and I'm sure great by Australian standards, but at no point will... More

An absolute haven for any chocolate lovers. I visited one of its store in Melbourne, and got so excited just looking at those beautiful chocolates. You can definitely find something for everyone in their store as they stock up a wide variety of chocolates to satisfy even the fussiest choc lover :) They offer free samples too and the staffs...

Australians mostly know that Haigh's is an Adelaide institution so it is interesting that it has made such an impact in Melbourne. They are also in Sydney for which many of us former Adelaideans are also so grateful. More

Haigh's chocolates are from Adelaide so don't believe they are a Melbourne tourist attraction! You can visit the factory in Adelaide on Greenhill road and have a tour of the factory where you sample the delights of the chocolate that we describe is as good as sex and learn about the history of the family business.

If you go into Melbourne you must visit one of their four Melbourne stores of Haighs Chocolates- Your senses will thank you- the smell, the taste- Oh just divine! You will ask yourself, 'What Do I Buy'?; Spoilt by choice...There are gift sets, boxes & tins of dark & milk chocolate varieties, cute little toys, hand made chocolates & truffles...... More

During my short trip to Melbourne I went to 2 Haigh's stores: The Block Arcade, corner Collins and Elizabeth Streets, and also at 26 Collins Street. The store smells devine when you enter and if you can get through to the front counter to the individual chocolates there is a wide selection and very hard to choose. There are free... More
