Many many years ago this station restaurant used to provide breakfasts for passengers arriving from Adelaide on the overnight Overland train service. A once grand venue now offers a basic breakfast offering for the early bird train traveller. The staff were friendly and the coffee was very good. The restaurant has the potential to be grand.

A very good place to while away sometime in an historic venue. The coffee and snacks are good and the service was pleasant.

I received the most amazing iced vanilla almond latte from the barista working on Tuesday at 1pm. It was the best one I have ever tasted!
