NIBS CACAO Dresden

As a dark chocolate fan I could not miss this bar/shop after reading good reviews. The hot chocolate comes very thick compared to the more liquid versions you get in Belgium or UK. I haven't tried any pastry to match the hot chocolate though, next time.....

Right after a stroll in Alaun Park on a cold winter's day, drop into Nibs for the thickest hot chocolate ever, to be had with the freshly baked spanish "muffin", which you dip into the choclate. Devine!

A hidden gem in the Dresden Neustadt. Everything is hand crafted and you can taste it. I had the "American Dream" with Marshmallows for an extra sugar rush. The restaurant itself is small and very cosy. If you have small kids - bring them, there are lots of toys to play with. And when they are older, there is always ice cream to get their attention.

NIBS is the place! We have visited Nibs several times and each time was better than the last. We enjoy the Chili Choco and our son, likes the American Choco with mini marshmallows! We can relax and enjoy our choco while he plays with all the toys and other kids in the back play room. The action quickly spills over in to the dining area but it is all part of the atmosphere. There is a good mix of nationalities, mostly, German, American and Spanish families all enjoying choco und churros. It is way outside the tourist zone but worth the trip to find it.

Totally delicious hot chocolate in many variations. There are also nibs, small dough rolls, which are put in thick cocoa. In fact, it's really inexpensive! Ambience goes like that.
