This cafe is in the mall, they do specialty chocolates and they also do REAL chocolate mochas and hot chocolates served over a candle they are delicious! Just make sure you ask for the right size when ordering because if you order a small its not served over a candle so just check with the staff.

Drinks & Nightlife

The Fox & Ferret is our closest local pub. Here they do what we would consider fairly traditional pub food like burgers and steaks. They often have live music and even better its in walking distance from the house so you can have a few drinks and not worry about transport :). Please note Fridays and Saturdays will quite posibly be busy so will be great if your lookng for some atmosphere and posibly somewhere to watch the rugby then heres your place. However not so much if your looking for a quiet meal.

Parks & Nature

This little park is Riccartons secret piece of paradise we treasure this little park. Its only minutes from the house but once your there you can get lost in the trees or sit by the river and feed the ducks, take our duck from the house (remember not to feed them bread). There is a walking track where you can walk through natve bush and see native birds.
