Knoops to Launch in Newcastle
KNOOPS (www.knoops.co.uk), the British brand revolutionising chocolate drinks with its customisable chocolate % menu, is delighted to announce the opening of its newest store in Newcastle. This will mark the brand's debut in the city and North East, bringing its signature chocolate experience to the vibrant food and drink scene.
Opening at 150 Grainger Street in Grainger Town, the historic heart of Newcastle, on Friday 20 December, it will offer shoppers, students, and city explorers the chance to create their ideal hot chocolates, iced chocolates, and milkshakes. From creamy 28% White Chocolate to intense 100% Extra Dark, customers can personalise their drinks with a choice of over 20 chocolate percentages, plant-based milks, and unique add-ons like sea salt, orange zest, or chilli.
KNOOPS was founded in 2013 by Jens Knoop, whose passion for creating personalised chocolate drinks led to the concept of "Knoopology." This four-step process allows customers to select their drink type, chocolate percentage, milk, and flavour enhancements, resulting in a bespoke and indulgent treat. Drinks can be enjoyed as warming hot chocolates, refreshing iced chocolates, or thick milkshakes blended with ice cream.
KNOOPS CEO William Gordon-Harris said: "We are thrilled to be opening in Newcastle, a city renowned for its vibrant culture and warm hospitality. Our Grainger Street store is the perfect location to introduce the KNOOPS experience to locals and visitors alike. Whether you’re in town for shopping, sightseeing, or socialising, our chocolate drinks are a must-try."
Jens Knoop, the brand’s founder, added: "Opening just before Christmas, we’re excited to be part of the festive spirit in Newcastle. There’s nothing cosier than a cup of hot chocolate during the festive season, and we can’t wait to share our passion for chocolate with the city."
The Newcastle opening is part of KNOOPS’ ambitious UK expansion, following recent launches in cities like Belfast, Edinburgh and Leeds. Each store is dedicated to creating memorable experiences through expertly crafted drinks, ensuring that every visit feels special.
