"This was by far the highlight of my recent trip to London... my favorite was all the old sweetie wrappers from the 70s and 80s.  It's an amazing collection and well worth visiting."  Trip Advisor Review, April 2022 "This really is an unknown gem.... especially seeing how branding and packaging of chocolate has changed. We spent two hours here and didn't see it all!" -  Google Review, March 2022 Enjoyed your visit? Let us know on Instagram, Facebook or Twitter or leave us a review on TripAdvisor
