Our Coffee Corner Lucerne
In the heart of Lucerne’s Old Town, right on Hertensteinerstrasse 7, we at the boutique Max Chocolatier are delighted to serve our coffee. Since October 2024, you can discover exquisite chocolate at Max Chocolatier and enjoy our freshly brewed coffee –served straight through the window in a convenient to-go cup. Here, two worlds come together that may seem very different at first glance but blend into a harmonious symbiosis upon closer inspection.
Coffee and Chocolate – Two Stories, One Goal
Coffee and chocolate have more in common than you might think. The coffee and cocoa bean embark on a long journey: they start their adventure in distant growing regions, are processed and refined with the utmost care here in Lucerne, and ultimately captivate us in their perfected form. Think of it as the magic behind a delicious Moccacino – the best combination of coffee and chocolate.
Passionate Preparation – Our Baristas at Work
Our experienced baristas passionately work to extract the best coffee for you from Monday to Saturday. Whether you choose a robust espresso from our classic machine or a smooth filter coffee made with the Origami Dripper, we always craft the ideal drink to suit your taste. You can choose between fresh Swiss cow’s milk or the popular plant-based alternative – Oatly’s oat milk.
Imagine grabbing your to-go cup and strolling through the charming alleys of Lucerne’s Old Town, savouring each sip as you enjoy the beauty.
Two Espresso Worlds – Light Characters and Dark Depths
At our Coffee Corner, we offer you two unique espresso experiences:
Moonwalker – Our Classic
The Moonwalker is our first espresso roast – a true classic that harmonizes exceptionally well with oat milk. This blend unites beans from Brazil, Rwanda, and Ethiopia, surprising you with a multifaceted flavour profile. Wild fruits, nutty notes, and a hint of chocolate make every day a delightful experience. The Moonwalker stands for tradition and quality, reminding us of the very beginning of our coffee journey.
Monthly Special Espresso – A Changing Taste Experience
Alternatively, you can try our monthly-changing Espresso Special. Often, we feature a single light roast here, where the delicate, original aromas of the bean take centre stage. This option is perfect for coffee lovers who appreciate subtle nuances and the true character of the bean. It’s an exciting choice for those who see coffee as a multi-dimensional indulgence – just like chocolate.
The Art of Chocolate at Max Chocolatier
Just like us, Max Chocolatier places great importance on ensuring that the authentic taste comes from the origin of the raw ingredients. That’s why Max works with single-origin Grand Cru couverture.
We use Madagascar's 68% couverture or Bolivia's 42% couverture for our Grand Cru Hot Chocolate. Once again, the choice is yours: dark chocolate or milk chocolate. Made with fresh Swiss cow’s milk or oat milk? And the best part – a topping of fluffy whipped cream!
Values, Tradition, and a Personal Story
Max Chocolatier is synonymous with high-quality chocolate and values like handmade, natural, bespoke, and Swiss. These principles shine through in every detail of the boutique – from the selection of raw materials to the lovingly crafted products. The story behind Max Chocolatier is as captivating as the chocolate creations themselves.
The boutique is named after the founder Patrik König’s son, Max, whose smile was often adorned with traces of chocolate. Inspired by his early love for chocolate, Patrik made a family dream come true in September 2009, right in the heart of Switzerland, in Lucerne.
Conclusion – An Experience for All the Senses
Our Coffee Corner at Max Chocolatier is more than just a spot to pick up your coffee. It’s a space where the passion for coffee and chocolate meets authentic craftsmanship and traditional values. Every sip becomes an experience that transports you into a fascinating world of flavours.
We warmly invite you to experience this special place for yourself. Let the variety and quality of our drinks enchant you, and discover how the union of coffee and chocolate creates a true feast for all the senses. Welcome to your new favourite spot in the heart of Lucerne – where every sip and every sweet treat promises pure indulgence!
