Refuge des Sens - Cauterets

I have enjoyed the hot chocolate in here for years, every time we go to Cauterets it is on our list of must do's. DELICIOUS x

What more do I need to say? Tea is fabulous and the chocolate is amazing. Tiny shop with seating for maybe 12 but did not disappoint just what you need after a long day in the hills...

I chanced upon this cafe while taking a short walk before dinner as it was opposite my hotel, but the smell of warm chocolate enticed me to wander in for a drink or dessert. Best decision ever. I ordered the hot chocolate with topped Chantilly cream and a scoop of ice cream choice between vanilla, chocolate or coffee) €6) and it was the best hot chocolate I had ever had. The hot chocolate itself is thick and rich definitely from good quality melted chocolate not the powdered stuff) with a subtle bitter finish, and the Chantilly cream added body while the sweetness from the chocolate ice cream I got evened out any bitterness from the hot chocolate. This was truly decadent, but definitely a drink I would re order were I back in Cauterets again.
