Pannys is always a compulsory stop whenever we bring out of town visitors to Philip Island to see the penguins. It's conveniently located on the main road onto the island so you can't miss it.

I really think the best thing is the walk through attraction for $15 per adult (kids under 4 are free) you get to see how chocolate is made and some great uses of chocolate as an art medium. The very very best part of the attraction where you get to make your own specialty chocolate out of great high quality chocolate. There are also free arcade games to win free chocolate treats and robotic chocolate dispensers. There is no shortage of free chocolate that you actually feel like you get your money's worth.

After all that you exit into the chocolate shop and are faced with gorgeous professionally decorated great quality chocolate and accessories. The cafe on site makes great hot chocolates and coffees with meals and snacks if you're all chocolated out. If not, try the chocolate dipped bananas because they are amazing!

Only con is that the chocolate is not cheap. But they are hand made and great for a little treat and to keep this place going and providing this great little side attraction in Philip island.

Approximate cost: $15

oh my, the best chocolate fact Ive been too, they made these frozen bananas on a stick and then dipped into chocolate, i honestly think it was one of the best things Ive tasted. if you're a sweet nut definitely go past
