We stopped for lunch at this cafe on our way to the Yorke Peninsula. There was a broad range of food and snacks to choose from and the service was great. We ordered the soup of the day and a salad roll. Five stars for sure!

Such a lovely little spot! The staff are incredibly friendly, genuinely warm and welcoming, like you’re visiting old friends. I had the brownie and it was absolutely amazing: rich, fudgy, and perfectly gooey in the middle. The coffee was just as impressive, smooth, full of flavor, and made with real care.

Great little Cafe. Very welcoming and clean. Stopped in for brekky on my gravel biking trek around the region. Didn't disappoint, huge serve of Sough Dough toast and a perfect cappuccino. Fresh home made muffins and scones etc... plenty to choose from. Treat yourself.

Just passing through the town and needed a coffee fix Being a relatively small town you are limited on choice... I was a bit hesitant at first, the shabby looking building together with the dodgy looking fridges and decor But....don’t be deceived by this... to my surprise my Soy Latte was well made, the coffee was not bitter and the milk was frothy..., anyone who knows...it very hard to make a good ‘Soy-Latte’! The service was a little slow, but it was right on lunch, so most like their peak time.

This place is a gem! Gorgeously friendly staff, and the food - my goodness! We had roast veg frittata and spinach & feta quiche. Both came with salads, and were 5 delicious. Go here if you want yummy, real, home cooked food

Wendy made a most wonderful carrot cake for me as a birthday cake. It was beautifully moist, totally more-ish, and generous in size. Thanks Wendy. Your efforts were so much appreciated. Flo Walters
