Indulge your sweet tooth with letterbox brownies and free hot chocolate 😋

Get your hands on a luxurious free hot chocolate this week

We could all do with a little pick-me-up right now — how does a deliciously decadent and totally free hot chocolate sound? The Gentlemen Baristas are giving Londoners another reason not to skip out on their daily exercise by giving out warming cups of the sweet stuff to take-away at every single one of their coffee houses this Thursday.

This is no ordinary hot chocolate, either: choose between mint, mocha, and festive orange and cinnamon editions, topped with festive goodies like candy canes and vegan marshmallows. All three flavours are crafted using vegan and gluten-free Pump Street chocolate and your choice of Estate Dairy Milk or Minor Figures oat milk.

It's all in celebration of The Gentlemen Baristas' new winter menu — all you have to do to claim your freebie is sign up to their mailing list and show your confirmation email to your barista. Alternatively, you can order online via their 'Home Delivery' service to sample the new menu and get your free hot chocolate without even leaving the house.
