A country bakery at the top of Funnell Drive. Everything is made here, the coffee is roasted here, and there is a licensed bar and a bottle shop out the back. Open seven days.
Australia's Best Pie Competition 2026
Our bakers put five pies into the 2026 Australia's Best Pie Competition and all five came home with something. Here is how they went.
Thank you to our bakers, our team, and everyone who keeps coming back.

The one people drive out for
Coconut milk, aromatic spices and proper hunks of prawn. It is not your average meat and gravy moment, and it is all the better for it.
Alongside it there is the butter chicken, the masala beef curry, the lamb rogan josh, the sea scallop, and a mince pie that has been quietly beating fancier ones for years.
Golden pastry, a filling that actually tastes of something, and a bakery small enough that the person who made it is probably standing there.
More than pies
It started as a bakery and it grew. These days you can get a coffee, a feed, a bottle of something, and a seat outside under the trees.
We roast our own beans here and the baristas know what they are doing with them. Fresh roasted coffee, made properly, from 6.30am.
Crisp rolls made to order. A very good reason to pull off the road on your way through, and a bit of a local secret.
Fresh bread out of the oven, decadent cakes and a cabinet of sweet things that changes with what the bakers feel like making.
Premium quality, locally sourced beef. Brisket, blade and rump, tender and full of flavour, with no hormones and no antibiotics.
Grab a cold one on your way through, or sit down and have one with your lunch. The bar is licensed and the bottle shop is right here.
Room inside, tables outside, toilets on site and disabled access. Bring the family, bring the dog, take your time.
