Oliver Brown and Chocolate

Oliver Brown 
Belgian chocolate cafe 
is NOW open in Hornsby

So have you tried it yet? I viisted and tried a DARK hot chocolate with marshmallows and crunchy balls. Oh and you can ask for Milk chocolate too!

HIGHLY recommended!

It's in the mall next to the Quality butchers across from the chemist and fish 'n' chips place.

They also sell chocolates to take away and you can sit in or take away drinks.

I'll be visiting again. Try it!
