Just walking into Verity is a delight. The shop is gorgeous and the wonderful chocolate aroma welcomes you upon entry. I was welcomed by the lovely proprietress, Ade, who guided me through the offerings and the production process. Her passion was infectious. I had a fabulous cup of chocolate truffle tea, I also purchased half a dozen cookies for a birthday party (they were a hit), the chocolate chai tea, bites and a 90% dark chocolate bar as gifts. The packaging is lovely and the gift wrapping elevated every gift. Verity is a perfect addition to downtown Somerville and I can't wait to return.

Stop Everything and Grab This Cookie! If your taste buds are bored this chocolate chip cookie is just what you need! decadent deliciousness! I was pleasantly surprised to taste such a well crafted cookie… It’s chewy, sweet, a little salty, and totally scrumptious! Seriously, run—don’t walk—to Verity Chocolate . Chef Ade has created something magical, and your mouth will thank you. I can’t wait to try the other creations that are offered at Verity Chocolate!

The brownie bites were the best brownies I've ever eaten. They were the perfect blend of chocolate, and not a really sweet. Also, the dark chocolate 90%, bar that we bought was out of this world. I've tasted chocolate all around the world, and this is among the best. Highly recommend for chocolate lovers!

Chocolate chip cookie was insane. It was truly perfect! The clusters are great and aren't made with nuts. Everything tastes and feels very fresh. I appreciated the whole rundown of the store! Love having a chocolatier so close!!

Literally the best cookies I have ever eaten in my entire life, and I have eaten a lot of cookies in my almost 40 years. These cookies have ruined all other cookies for me. I really need everyone reading this to go try one and make sure they stay a thriving business because I need these cookies to keep me going. I tried the regular chocolate chip and the oatmeal chocolate, and while both are amazing and flavorful with a spectacular texture-the oatmeal adds a depth of flavor that was perfection. The flaky salt on top was just a decadent addition. The dark chocolate bar also had a wonderfully smooth, deep, rich and luxurious flavor. I am looking forward to eventually trying a milk chocolate bar as well! The skill and knowledge of the confectionery magician who crafted these really shows in each bite.

Their chocolate cold brew, is SO. Good. Rarely write reviews, but her dark chocolate, and chocolate cold brew was SO good I had to share for others. All made in house by the owner, this quality rivals anything I’ve ever had before. Highly recommend.

If I could give Verity 10 stars, I would without hesitation. My husband and I walked into the shop tonight for the first time, and were greeted like old friends. The shop owner gave us the most amazing tour, and explained to us the process of bean to bar. Absolutely amazing. I had chocolate chai tea, and a chocolate chip cookie - both out of this world! Cannot wait to go back to try more items!!! Definitely stop in - you won't regret it!
