Tasmanian Chocolate Foundry

beautiful little chocolate cottage that’s handmade on site. perfect for visiting after coming from port arthur. chocolate was really nice & they also have serve van diemans gelato. staff are super lovely and the store smells of chocolate which makes us hungry!

I had a disappointing experience at this chocolate shop. I bought two chocolate bar soaps as gifts for two different friends, but the cashier put both items into one very small paper bag. I’m environmentally conscious and appreciate efforts to reduce waste, but this didn’t make sense, especially when other chocolate products were being placed in plastic bags. What bothered me more was the attitude. Instead of explaining the reasoning politely, the cashier made a face and came across as dismissive and unfriendly. A simple, respectful explanation would have made a big difference. Overall, the product idea is nice, but the customer service really needs improvement.

It’s a good stop while going to port Arthur. Plenty of parking and welcoming staff. Good vegan options for chocolate as well. Not sure why they kept asking if we are from a tour or not etc. was a bit odd being asked so many times.

Absolutely adored our side trip to the Foundry! I fell in love with the Pepperberry and Sea Salt but all flavours we tried were amazing. Thanks to Sheryl for her awesome hospitality as well. Will absolutely be returning.
