Chocolat Vitale opening first retail store in Lower Phinney/East Ballard

Chocolat Vitale, the maker of rich European-style hot chocolate, is opening its first retail store on the corner of NW 65th Street and 3rd Avenue NW.

No one was there when we stopped by this afternoon, but they do have a small sign in the window and a large sign resting against the back wall, and you can see new flooring being installed.

Until now, Chocolat Vitale has had a web and wholesale business only.
Thanks to Evan and Nancy for the tips!
