What Alan Courtenay likes about The Old Parakao Store Cafe/:
The old Parakao store, cafe and bar is something worth visiting. Heaps of local history being the old garage with plenty of memorabilia to view. Great bar and food choices and very friendly staff. A destination for many enthusiasts. If you are lucky there may even be a band playing. If you are in this neck of the woods you must stop and take it all in. View all feedback.
