6 Must-Visit Cafes for the Best Hot Chocolate in Delhi NCR

Winter in Delhi calls for a mug of warm, velvety hot chocolate, and the capital city does not disappoint especially when temperatures have started falling to single digits. Whether you’re craving a decadent Spanish-style drink or a rustic, marshmallow-topped cocoa, these six cafes deliver delicious comfort and cosy vibes across Delhi NCR.

Chocolateria San Churro

Step into this Spanish-style chocolatería in Greater Kailash II for a truly indulgent hot-chocolate experience. Their classic hot chocolate is thick, velvety, and rich, often likened to drinking molten ganache rather than a light beverage.  Pair it with their churros for the full chocolate-and-churro indulgence. On a chilly Delhi evening, this is the place for a comforting mug that warms you from within.

When: Open daily from 10:00 AM – 1:00 AM 

Where: M-1, 80 Feet Road, Main Market, Block M, Greater Kailash II

Price: Rs. 1200 for two (approx.) 

Petite Pie Shop

The French-inspired boulangerie at Worldmark, Gurugram, has quickly become a neighbourhood favourite for its handcrafted bakes, warm aesthetics, and menu built on comfort and craft. Known for its pies, pastries, and thoughtfully curated beverages, the space continues to introduce delights that bring people together over simple joys done exceptionally well. This season, their “Campfire Hot Chocolate” is the one to order — a rich, indulgent cup made with premium cocoa powder, decadent Belgian dark chocolate, and Petite Pie Shop’s signature in-house chocolate sauce. Finished with a perfectly toasted marshmallow that melts just enough into the drink, it captures the feeling of winter warmth and nostalgia in every sip. A cosy must-have for the season.

Café Dori

If you’re looking for a hot chocolate that’s more refined, smooth, dark and not overly sweet, Café Dori is a brilliant choice. Their version uses high-quality dark chocolate, resulting in a thick, foamy drink often topped with toasted marshmallows.  The cafe’s minimalist, studio-like interior adds to the charm perfect for lazy winter afternoons spent reading, chatting or simply soaking in the calm.

Hashery

A favourite among students and creatives in Delhi, Hashery brings a personal touch to hot chocolate.

Elma’s Bakery and Kitchen
