Established in 1875, Charbonnel et Walker is London’s oldest surviving chocolate shop and a devout purveyor of luxury treats. First encouraged by Edward VII, then the Prince of Wales, the Parisian chocolatier Madame Charbonnel began working with Mrs Walker, a maker of fine jewellery boxes, and together they built something beautiful. Here, chocolates are indulgent and endlessly creative. It’s little wonder Wallis Simpson, Lauren Bacall and Noel Coward were all regular customers.
