   Amazing service in the Pantry and Gelato store. Beautiful range of products from many local artisans but Silky Oaks very own Garlic Infused Rice Bran Oil and Lemon Gin Marmalade are to die for. The Avocado Oil is up there too. We will be back.

   We recently had a delightful time while in Napier when we stopped for a visit at the Silky Oak Chocolate cafe. We initially stopped for a few chocolate treats and gifts while travelling but were pleasantly surprised by the amazing food we had at the cafe on site. We both had a bacon egg bene (as that is the go to for us) which was absolutely beautiful and the cherry tomatoes were a great addition to the meal! The coffee was also amazing as well as the desserts we picked to accompany our long black brews. The staff also helped to make the experience! We had a great time meeting Jean in the cafe, the ladies in the pantry and Sue in the chocolate shop were all stars! We loved our visit to Silky Oak and the ladies made it even more special with their knowledge and hospitality. Looking forward to going back to the Silky Oak when next we are down from Auckland!

   Silky Oak Chocolate museum & café is an absolute must if you’re anywhere near the area. The museum lays out the history of chocolate from the use of cocoa beans as currency in Aztec culture all the way up to modern day international chocolate making. The displays are well-maintained and interesting to look at, as well as completely unique to anything else in other museums we’ve visited. There’s even a little theatre playing vintage chocolate ads that’s fun to see! The staff are wonderful and the cafe is also really lovely with a nice selection of food and drinks (including a hot chocolate made with silky oaks very own chocolate!). We got a few chocolates from the shop on the way out and have to say the salted caramel bark is particularly tasty!

   So many tasty treats and the cafe didn’t disappoint either! The general store in the middle comes off very dated and a bit blah.

   We traveled up from Porirua with my Uncle (who lives in Australia) and we met the staff and owner. They were absolutely wonderful to meet. We will definitely be back to pop in and grab some amazingly tasty chocolate. We will look at the museum and Cafe our next visit too.

   Silky Oak Chocolate Co. Chocolate Fudge Cafe Museum Gifts offers an amazing pantry, a souvenir shop, a museum which chronicles the history of chocolates, and an awesome cafe This place is insane! The parking is good. All the staff are very friendly, and the cake and coffee at the cafe is top notch. The pantry makes me feel like a kid.. well, in a candy shop. The chocolates and fudge is amazing! There are lots of odds and ends that will make great gifts, even of you're buying for yourself. The museum was very interesting. I can't believe that arsenic was one of the ingredients that used to go in chocolate. Absolutely indulge yourself by visiting all three shops. It's a great way to spend a few hours
