See displays of original chocolate packaging, old machinery and early photographs. Special displays include Cooks Corner for gourmet products, chocolate sauce and chocolate couverture with free recipes. There's free coffee or tea while you select from Haigh's extensive range. Tours run for approximately 20 minutes. Please contact the Visitor Centre for tour times and to make a booking, which is essential. Factory is not fully operational on Saturday.
