We visited today to try the new viral Dubai chocolate bar! We had this and a box of the donut holes with pistachio and chocolate. So delicious that we finished our treats and got back in line for seconds to take home. Staff are absolutely lovely and so helpful and the shop is adorable. Cannot wait to stop in again!

We tried several things from the menu, the Dubai chocolate bar, Dubai strawberries, hot chocolate and lockma. I have to say it’s one of the best hot chocolate I’ve had in a long time because it was delicious. Had a lot of flavor, but was not overly sweet. The strawberries were by far my favorite. I drove to Lily’s from Baltimore, which was over a 45 minute drive and wow I have to say it was definitely worth it. This is a spot that I recommend wholeheartedly.

Traveled all the way from rural Oregon and needed to get the Dubai chocolate strawberries and the chocolate bar. The strawberries were one of the best things I have ever tasted. I am in love! 100 out of 10 you must try!

I visited Lily’s Alexandria location, and Gabbi and Mohammad were incredibly helpful. Despite how busy it was, they managed to take great care of the guests. Gabbi, in particular, went above and beyond with her exceptional service. I would definitely return—not just for the delicious food (especially the Dubai chocolate!) but because of the outstanding hospitality.

The service was great, they were quick and friendly. The food was great. We were happy that there were food options instead of only sweet options. Highly recommend the pesto sandwich, strawberries with chocolate, hot lattes and Dubai chocolate .

This place was great! We got the Dubai chocolate and the chocolate covered strawberries. We also got an iced coffee and a pistachio hot latte. Atmosphere was great. The customer service was superb! Catering to all of the clients needs in a respectful manner. We came during a busy time and still received amazing hospitality from all of the staff. I don’t see how so many ppl gave bad reviews for the customer service, I have to disagree with them. Please see photos of our delicious orders! Will definitely be back and will recommend this place to friends looking for a cute cafe and craving some sweets!

Lily’s Chocolate & Coffee is such a cute and cozy spot! The place is clean, and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. I got the pistachio and Biscoff lokma, and they were absolutely delicious perfectly crispy on the outside with a rich, flavorful filling. Their coffee paired perfectly with it. However, I don’t recommend the classic ones, as they weren’t as flavorful in comparison. Overall, it’s a great place for a sweet treat and a good cup of coffee. Highly recommend trying the flavored options!

I can finally scratch this one off my “to visit” list . The employees are so friendly and deliver excellent customer service. I tried their Spanish latte, it was amazing. I sure will be returning soon to try more of their stuffs. PS. The mirror in the restaurant is so adorable.
