The Chocolate Room

Jon Payson and Naomi Josepher moved to NYC in the early Nineties. Together, they enjoyed seeking out phenomenal desserts all around the city. When they moved to Park Slope, Brooklyn in 2003, they noticed a need for a dessert café on quickly changing Fifth Avenue. After reading an inspirational book on chocolate, they decided to create a café specializing in high-end chocolate, extraordinary desserts, handmade ice creams, dessert wines and beers from all over the world, as well as superb coffee. They opened in January 2005 and is currently serving the Cobble Hill neighborhood of Brooklyn.

Working together respectfully is the essence of our philosophy: that means each and every person is valued for their contribution to meeting the highest standards for the success of The Chocolate Room experience. Ensuring standards for every component of the operation are met by each individual and creating a continuously welcoming atmosphere are absolutely essential as we work together to fulfill the mission daily. Our job is to take care of each other and our guests. Every individual in the shop should feel welcomed, respected, and taken care of—always.
