Dhai Al-Mutairi

Brought to you from Barcelona, Spain and freshly baked in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, the newest Chok location at the Esplanade guarantees chocolate enthusiasts an incredibly indulgent experience.

Chok is a haven for all things sweet and chocolatey. This pastry shop, known as a pasteleria in Spanish, proudly dubs itself the Chocolate Shop. However, it goes beyond just chocolate.

Chok offers a delightful array of treats, including doughnuts, mini cakes, muffins, truffles, cookies, and cheesecakes.

Some of its highly sought-after sweet treats include coconut and lime mini cakes, mango and raspberry muffins, and white chocolate cheesecake.

These delectable options are priced between SR6 ($1.6) for a truffle and SR39 ($10.4) for a cheesecake. The cheesecake is available in three enticing flavors: Nutella and red berries, white chocolate and mixed berries, and passion fruit.

Chok is also loved for its kronut, a delightful fusion of a croissant and a doughnut. These kronuts are available in a range of flavors, such as red berries, almond cream, and Kinder.

For special occasions like Mother’s Day, Chok provides the ideal package featuring a mini cake, a candle, a bouquet of flowers, and a special card.

The beverage menu comprises both hot and cold options. The hot drinks selection includes hot chocolate (perfect for the upcoming winter season), cortado, espresso, flat white, Americano and a coffee of the day.

Chok’s cold beverages include refreshing options such as an ice shake, ice matcha, ice Americano, ice latte and ice flat white.

Chok is open from 8:30 a.m. to midnight from Saturday to Thursday, and from 1 p.m. to midnight on Fridays.
