For more than a century, Govatos Chocolates has been serving chocolate to the Wilmington area. Stop in today to try our delectable chocolate candies, whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just want a tasty treat!
Govatos Chocolates is a third-generation family-owned business. John Govatos, a Greek immigrant, established the family business in 1894. John opened a store at 4th & Walnut Street in Wilmington, Delaware, a small bustling city, initially selling his products under the trade name "Queen Elizabeth Chocolates."
After changing its name in 1898, Govatos Chocolates & Luncheonette relocated twice more. Third-generation brothers, Nicholas and Richard Jr. have been in the business for over 50 years. A bite of our history is waiting for you!
We are proud that, in an ever-changing chocolate industry, we are still tied to the old-fashioned methods that made us a beloved chocolate shop. Part of the candy-making crew fills the chocolates, while the rest do the hand-molding. You can find hollow cowboys on raised horses, ducks, crosses, Popeye, bunnies, hearts, and many other creative chocolates in our shop. Contact us today with any questions you have about our selection of chocolate candies.
