"Artisanal Chocolate maker Matt Weyandt loves what he does. And so do we. The heavenly, small batch cacao confections are made by hand, on site with sustainably, ethically grown ingredients. The pure mix of cacao and organic cane sugar is absent of additives and simply luscious! Now pour some red wine and break open the dark chocolate – it’s good for you. Really! Xocolatl is located in Krog Street Market." - Brand Bird
"A homegrown chocolate dealer with a retail store at the Krog Street Market, offering many gift sets including chocolate bonbons, monthly subscriptions, drinking chocolates, peppermint bark, and more. Founded by Elaine Read and Matt Weyandt, the chocolates are made in small batches from Costa Rican cacao. The “coolest chocolate bar sampler” includes the chocolate bar made in partnership with chef Joey Ward from Georgia Boy, which is offered at the end of the tasting menu." - Henna Bakshi
"Xocolatl, owned by Elaine Read and Matt Weyandt, is a bean-to-bar micro chocolate factory inside Krog Street Market. At this small but mighty chocolate shop, find single-origin dark chocolate bars made with carefully sourced cacao, as well as bars with names like Kissed Mermaids using Costa Rican cacao, coconut milk, and vanilla bean-infused sea salt. Xocolatl sells other chocolate goodies, too, such as a chocolate hazelnut spread that rivals Nutella and drinking chocolate." - Eater Staff
"Inside Krog Street Market, Xocolatl is a bean-to-bar micro chocolate factory that sells single-origin dark chocolate bars and inventive bars like Kissed Mermaids (Costa Rican cacao with coconut milk and vanilla bean–infused sea salt). During Atlanta’s cold months I reach for a rich cup of hot sipping chocolate topped with fluffy marshmallows, and in the summer the shop even offers frozen sipping chocolate." - Beth McKibben
"The co-founder of a Krog Street Market–based chocolate business launched the Staff the Polls 2020 initiative to mobilize Atlanta’s restaurant and bar industry around the November election, urging owners to provide employees paid time off to vote or work the polls; the founder draws on a history of activism, including work with the late congressman John Lewis, and frames voting as a vital, nonviolent civic duty." - Beth McKibben
