Opening date set for Hotel Chocolat's Bishop's Stortford store

Hotel Chocolat is opening its store in Bishop's Stortford this week.

On Saturday (Nov 2) the British chocolatier and cacao grower will open the doors to its Jackson Square shop for the very first time.

Earlier today (Oct 28), the company announced it would be opening next Monday (Nov 4) but has since decided to bring the event forward by two days.

There will be goody bags for the first 50 shoppers. Throughout the day, visitors will be treated to free chocolate samples, as well as drinks and ice cream tasters.

The confectioner has moved in to the former Scott Sports premises, between phone shop Three and Accessorize, which front onto Potter Street.

The new shop forms part of Hotel Chocolat's ever-growing portfolio, which boasts more than 100 locations across the UK, Channel Islands, Europe, Japan and the US.
