This charming, colonial cafe is the perfect spot to enjoy chocolate and coffee in the heart of Campeche. It offers a range of hot and frappe drinking chocolates, my favourite is the hot one prepared with chile, a very traditional Mayan recipe! The menu also offers light snacks and delicious crepes. Service is warm and friendly. Great place to meet... More

If you love chocolate definitely go to Chocolate Ha. The chocolate and strawberry pancakes are fantastic and hot chocolate gorgeous. We weren't so keen on the chocolate frappe. Owner is really nice and welcoming.

This charming store is located on beautiful Calle 59, a couple of blocks from the "puerta de tierra" gate in the city wall (and the lovely Puerta Campeche Hotel). You can enjoy drinking chocolate prepared with chile, the way the mayas did-- or chocolate prepared in more familiar ways. It's all delicious!

Our Edzna tour guide, Alfredo of Kank ‘obi tours (the best!) recommend we pop in this sweet spot for some good chocolate and we’re so glad he did! Otherwise, we may have never known about it. Since it’s only open in the evenings, Chocol ‘ha is easy to miss but is just a few steps away from Hacienda Puerta Campeche... More

If you like real chocolate, the kind that lets you taste the cacao bean and not just a lot of sugar, you owe it to yourself to stop by Chocol Ha when you are in Campeche. I had a cup of chocolate caliente con chile and a tamal de chocolate and both were absolutely wonderful. The service was good -... More

This more of a very unique gift shop than a restaurant. Light food and beverages. But you've never seen or tasted anything like it. Almost everything is chocolate based, and not the bland American style, but a spicy almost cinnamon Mexican style. I recommend it highly as a fascinating stop. Be brave, try the hot chocolate with chilies in it.

My husband loves this place! They make the best chocolate drinks and also serve small plates, such as crepes, that are yummy. Very friendly staff and the store is charming, with outdoor seating. Open late.

Chocol Ha means Chocolate House in the Maya language. This is the place for dessert, coffee, and chocolate in Campeche. They serve a number of unique hot and cold chocolate drinks, including the traditional Maya hot chocolate with a dash of chili. Location is great, in the heart of Campeche's historic district. It is midway between the Puerta de Tierra... More

The setting is quite inviting, there is indoor and outdoor seating on a quiet street. The people who work here are very friendly and the service is excellent. My sandwich and cold coffee/chocolate drink were wonderful. They played American jazz and blues on the speakers and we enjoyed that so much. Hopefully, Campeche will have more places like this the...
