Spinnaker Chocolate's New Café and Factory: A Sweet Expansion in Seattle

Spinnaker Chocolate Expands with New Factory and Café

Spinnaker Chocolate, the beloved Seattle-based craft chocolate maker, is entering an exciting new chapter with its recent move to Wallingford. After many successful years at their cozy location in Ravenna, the company has officially relocated to a spacious facility that not only encompasses a new production area but also introduces its first-ever café.

A New Home for Chocolate Lovers

The new Spinnaker Café, situated at 3509 Stone Way N, Seattle, WA, is designed as a warm and modern space for chocolate enthusiasts to indulge in a variety of delightful offerings. Visitors can expect to enjoy an expanded menu that features rich drinking chocolate, locally roasted coffee, and freshly baked pastries, including treats from local favorite Sea Wolf Bakers.

Co-Founder and CEO Kelly Van Arsdale expressed genuine gratitude and excitement about the move, stating, "Our time in Ravenna has been incredible, and it was bittersweet to say goodbye. But we're thrilled about what's ahead. This move has given us the space to grow, experiment, and create an even better experience for our customers."

Room for Innovation and Growth

With the new location, Spinnaker Chocolate will be able to scale up its bean-to-bar chocolate production effectively. The spacious production area allows for larger-scale operations, a significant boost to wholesale activities, behind-the-scenes factory tours, and hands-on chocolate-making classes. Fans of the brand can also look forward to a slew of new products that have been long-awaited.

Kelly added, "We know this is a big change, and we're so grateful for the support of our community. We can't wait to welcome everyone into our new café on June 28th and continue sharing our passion for craft chocolate."

Spinnaker's commitment to crafting high-quality, ethically sourced chocolate remains steadfast, and the new facility aims to enhance this commitment further. The retail space will continue to feature the same beloved offerings, including an array of bean-to-bar chocolates, handcrafted truffles, and, naturally, the signature drinking chocolate.

As the café opened its doors on June 28, 2025, Spinnaker Chocolate extends an invitation to chocolate lovers in the community and beyond to come and witness the magic of bean-to-bar chocolate production. The blend of artistry and passion that goes into every batch of Spinnaker Chocolate’s creations is sure to tantalize taste buds and create memorable experiences for all who walk through their doors.
