Why Travelers Notice It

Crofts Chocolates at a glance

Book the St John's Road factory for a private chocolate session, or choose a handmade Scarborough box, sea-salt caramel, bar, figure, gift, or online order from the mother-and-son team.

Crofts grew from Sheila and Alex's kitchen table into a Scarborough production unit, shop, online range, and private workshop business using Belgian couverture and a Scarborough Sea Salt Caramel.

What to book, try, order, see, or ask for

  • Why travelers should care: Crofts grew from Sheila and Alex's kitchen table into a Scarborough production unit, shop, online range, and private workshop business using Belgian couverture and a Scarborough Sea Salt Caramel.
  • What to book, try, order, see, or ask for: Compare the family bar workshop, age-16-plus bon-bon session, combined bars and bon bons, private group size, gift card, boxed chocolates, figures, shards, and Scarborough Sea Salt Caramel; confirm allergens before paying.
  • Best for: Families, private groups, birthdays, older-teen and adult food sessions, wheelchair users, gift buyers, locally made souvenirs, online orders, and travelers who want to meet the maker.
  • What makes it worth the stop: Owner and chocolatier Alex hosts private sessions inside the working production unit, where groups taste chocolate, use professional moulds, make bars or filled chocolates, and package their work to take home.
  • Neighborhood note: St John's Road production unit; shop location and collection details confirmed per order
  • Booking note: Each workshop publishes its own price, age, group size, and duration, and some older information differs from current product pages. Use the current workshop hub and final product page, then keep the date confirmation and factory address.

Plan The Visit

Check before you go

Address: Workshop and production unit: 4 St John's Road, Scarborough YO12 5ET

Workshops take place at 4 St John's Road, not the retail shop. Online booking usually needs seven days' notice, private group minimums vary, under-16s need an adult, and peak production can stop sessions. Confirm allergens, clothing, hair, access, parking, shop collection, and refund terms.

Each workshop publishes its own price, age, group size, and duration, and some older information differs from current product pages. Use the current workshop hub and final product page, then keep the date confirmation and factory address.
