"Consumer Reports published a report last month indicating many dark chocolates contain high levels of lead and cadmium. SFGATE reports Lindt, Godiva, Trader Joe’s, and San Francisco’s own Ghirardelli Chocolate were all on the list of 28 companies whose products contain the chemicals." - Paolo Bicchieri

You must go here if you are visiting San Francisco! Delicious sweet treats both to go and to have while you visit. The waffle cone was so fresh, and delicious! It is huge, and there is so much to do in the Ghirardelli square. Great location with beautiful views! Highly recommend!!

Great tourist destination. Unfortunately, it is not very ♿️ accessible. There are lifts avatar wheelchairs but one must call a phone number and wait for assistance to arrive. If one wishes to use the restroom, the same thing. It is located on another level. I loved the shop and ice cream but found all the steps frustrating.

Really nice specialty ice cream shop. The ice cream was really good. We went around 10 p.m., and there was still a lineup. So expect to wait any time you go there. Also, it's not cheap. You're going to pay $14 -$18 for the sundaes. I have the mint bliss sundae, and my wife had the hot fudge sundae. There is also a shop to buy chocolate as well.

This is a must do Tourist attraction! Dont skimp and pass this up. What an amazing experience! We went approx 10am Saturday morning and it was so quiet and peaceful! The staff were extremely helpful and courteous. It's never too early for milkshake or sugar, you're on vacation right? Pro tip: Get the frozen hot chocolate! 🍫 Same as disneyland and sooo delicious!

We went twice! The Ghirardelli Square is wheelchair accessible! Washrooms are clean. The hot chocolate is to die for, so creamy! What a wonderful place. The sundaes were excellent- mine was so big I didn’t finish it. Might I suggest the ‘mini’ World Famous Fudge Sundae if your eyes are bigger than your stomach like me!!

Another place in SF, that you have to go at least once. It is full of tourists and it is a bit expensive. Can’t beat the hot fudge sundae’s here. The ice cream is great. It the chocolate is to rich. If you plan on gaining a few pounds, go here. Always lots of people, but service is fast. Try Ocean beach.

Can’t go wrong with a sweet treat! The only downside is finding a spot to sit because the place is packed! If you choose to dine-in, they give you a number and will look for your table—if you’re lucky to find an open spot (wandered around for a good 20 minutes on top of being first come first serve). I recommend just taking it to go so you have a disposable cup and can walk around! Dining-in gives you a glass dish which you obviously cannot leave with.
