Olivia Morrison Metropolitan Quality That Pleases Discerning Palates
Discerning coffee drinkers and interstate travelers are routinely surprised and relieved to discover metropolitan cafe standards right in regional South Australia.
Stopped here for a flat white on our way through Mt Gambier but the staff were friendly and the coffee was really nice. Coming from a Melbournian I am a snob!

What a friendly team. Great coffee and a good chat while waiting at the counter. We came all the way up from Tassie and this was a really nice stop along the way.

Text Ahead for Express Pickup
If you are on a tight travel schedule or commuting, text your coffee and food order ahead so it is prepped and waiting at the counter when you arrive.
Opt for Quick Counter Fare
