Scones are light and fluffy, so delicious. It was a hard choice between a savoury mince pie and a pastie but apparently they're known for their pasties, and rightly so. Nice short pastry, firm enough to hold the filling in while eating with your hands, and stuffed full of veggies. Well worth a pretty drive!

Don’t let the quaint appearance deceive you, behind the antique interior & old family home vibe are sugary delights refined over many generations. A pot of hot tea & home made scones go down a treat. Homemade rocky road & fruit cake to follow. Not mass produced & sickeningly sweet like you’ll find elsewhere. Would recommend taking the drive & giving it a go.

We took our Mum here for Mother's Day lunch today...a group of 9. The menu was not extensive, but we all easily chose food to suit us, and it was beautifully presented, delicious, and generous servings. Wonderful experience, and to top it off, we were given chocolates on our departure! Would definitely recommend

I had wanted to stop here for a while. I wasn't disappointed either. Beautiful home cooked meal in a lovely homely place. So relaxing and tranquil and our host was a very nice lady. I'll be back to enjoy again.

Love stopping here on our way to Victor. Lovely food, delicious scones and milkshakes, cute atmosphere. Don’t judge a book by its cover, this place is worth the stop

Friendly family owned small business with amazing home-made foods. We got a variety of cheeses and relishes with crackers for a picnic on the way to victor harbour. A little gem of a place often overlooked when travelling south. Worth a visit!
