We visited your store in Ambleside last year and again earlier this year. Your dipped flakes and chocolate peanuts are mine and my family’s favourites. As a surprise to my kids, I placed an online order for Easter. They were just as good as when we had bought them in store and we will definitely order again 😊
My family and I love your product .
My family and I love your product .
We have previously tried your double dip chocolate flakes and orange chocolate buttons. We decided to reorder the orange buttons and add the strawberry and caramel buttons too .
The order was delivered quicker than the 10 working day notice so we were very happy.
Birthday Present
Bought for my wife's birthday which is not for a couple of weeks but with their production shutting down for a while had to buy a bit early. Delivery took around a week so no problem & were well packed. Although not eaten yet she has had them before & likes them a lot. They are expensive though but guess you get what you pay for!
Amazing chocolate

The best chocolate ever
The best chocolate ever. Have been buying from them for many years. Sadly have not been able to travel for a couple of years so to be able to purchase by post is awesome. Just wish I could purchase a little more at a time. Highly recommended . Pam

Fabulous chocolates
I’ve ordered these chocolates many times for my missus, Old Bank House is her no 1 chocolate shop. All her favourites were in stock and delivered in plenty of time for Christmas. Excellent quality as usual, hoping she will share a caramel cup with me.🤞
