The 5 Best Places in Lakewood for Hot Chocolate This Winter
Although Lakewood is one of the best places in the world for winter weather (with temperatures usually hovering around the high 60s), that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy a little warm-up and decadence with a cup of hot chocolate from these Lakewood favorites:
- Javatini’s Espresso
- Romeo Chocolates
- The Merchant
- Viento y Agua Coffee House
- Coffee Parlor
Javatini’s Espresso
Javatini’s Espresso
4214 Woodruff Ave
562-420-1019
Enjoy a micro-foam, steamed hot chocolate treat at Javantini’s Espresso. The friendly baristas prepare magic in a mug with rich Ghirardelli Chocolate and real whipped cream. Looking for something with a little more kick? Try a Mexican hot chocolate, complete with all the right spices to make you feel like your abuelita made a delicious treat just for you.

Come see what the buzz is all about at Romeo Chocolates, the “Best Desserts” winner of Long Beach Home & Living 2018. Enjoy classic hot chocolate with a twist by using a “Hot Cocoa Bomb,” a sphere of chocolatey goodness filled with cocoa powder and marshmallows that explodes (gently) in a mug of hot milk. And if the warm California weather’s got you a little overheated, try your hot chocolate frozen with Long Beach Creamery ice cream.
