Be warned you get to eat a lot of chocolate. We got to make three chocolate items which was good fun and my daughter got a chocolate tattoo which she happily ate a few seconds later. There's a decent outdoor play area as well as a soft play. There's a good cafe offering hot food. I had coffee to try and counter the amount of sugar I ate. Well worth a morning or afternoon. · via Google [Pamela Milligan](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/116136346216085987136/reviews) ★★★★★ We went to the cocobean company last Saturday for my granddaughter 4th birthday and it was the toy story theme, we all as a family had the best day out food was amazing play area in soft play the outdoor bit closed it opens on april, it's a great experience from start to finish well worth the trip and my 2 granddaughter loved making the chocolate that also is well worth the money staff were very welcoming and pleasant keep up the work guys will defo go back. · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x4862e5c4886a7fb7:0xcb3159ae097b593f!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) People say this chocolate factory offers engaging chocolate-making workshops for both children and adults, along with extensive indoor soft play and outdoor adventure play areas.
