About The Golden Fleece Cafe

This retro 1960s pitstop dishes up hearty scratch cooking and massive portions on Willunga’s High Street. Inside, automotive relics set a playful tone while travelers and cycling packs unwind out back on the sheltered patio. Regulars make a beeline for the Fleece Stack—golden homemade potato rostis layered with crisp bacon, avocado, poached egg, and a dollop of sour cream. Up front, the glass cabinet holds oversized baked slices and warm daily scones alongside pours of local roast espresso.

  • The Fleece Stack: House potato rostis stacked high with bacon, poached egg, avocado, and sour cream.
  • Retro Petroliana Vibe: A nostalgic 1960s service station tribute packed with vintage automotive memorabilia.
  • Fresh Homestyle Bakes: Counter cases filled daily with warm batch scones and oversized slices.

Before you head over

Helpful hints on timing, portion sizes, and seating for your visit

  • Book Ahead for Weekend Brunch

    Weekend mornings and peak lunch hours can get very busy with waitlists for tables; reserve ahead if visiting for Saturday brunch.

  • Plan for Substantial Portions

    Portions for breakfast mains and cabinet slices are notably massive, so consider taking sweets to go if you want both.

  • Opt Outdoors for Extra Room

    Indoor dining can be somewhat tight to navigate with wheelchairs, though the outdoor patio offers significantly more open space.
