Food Scene

Excellent food and coffee. Healthy menu. My fav is the'Hot Chocolate' You expect to pay for this excellence, bit pricey. The chocolates 'are to die for' Locally made, distributed all over Australia, some overseas areas. Large, spacious spotless area inside plus seating outside. It's a must. It would be hard to find 'chocolate' as great as this made locally, here in Australia. NOT OPEN MONDAYS

I called in there the other day, most impressed. Opened in December 2017. Make their own beer and cider on the premises. Owners very friendly, happy to tell the story behind 'Watsacowie'. Display of wooden vats. Long bar Seating area spacious, outside seating as well. Very well thought out. Platters (substansial) available Pizzas available at times, made on the premises. Smoking Bull BBQ, Mobile van there at times also. Can purchase food and take to Brewery. Excellent for a day out or call in for a 'quickie' Great for Kids., Jazz the Kelpie will keep them occupied. By the way sampled the Cider tis 'Great' Pricewise, affordable. Wonderful asset to the Yorke Peninsula area.

Parks & Nature

AWESOME. Drive through the area. See breathtaking scenery, beaches, wildlife and fauna. Beautiful wildflowers in Spring early September. Many walking trails. Historic town. Must get a 'pass' on line to enter park. Harvest Corner in Minlaton will issue a pass if online not possible.

Drinks & Nightlife

Quaint hotel. Food very good. Open fire on cold wet days. Pokies TAB. Lots of screens for viewing. I find it a relaxing place to have a drink or even a coffee. Can be a bit noisy if its cricket or football season when players have their after match drinks. I'm happy to see people enjoying them selves so it doesn't bother me.
