We had a wonderful time sampling wines accompanied by an excellent platter (as shown in the photo). While not every wine suited my taste, I particularly enjoyed the Shiraz. The indoor lighting can be a bit harsh, but the back deck offers a lovely view and is a fantastic spot to relax.

Large outdoor area ,both under cover under the gum trees! Great place for a birthday or other family function. Art displayed is local and always featuring different artists. Toilets spotlessly clean. Pruners Hut is close to The Flatmates group of wineries, in particular Shottesbrooke. Owners, Ann Stuart are so friendly welcoming. Make it a definite stop on your next visit to McLaren Flat in S.A. 's famous McLaren Vale wine region.

Its been open 18 months and is also a gallery with a range of artworks on display. The exhibitions change monthly.Our experience today was quite enjoyable and we just had coffee and a small fudge slice. The indoor dining area is not overly large and they have a smallish outdoor veranda with a few tables. They serve platters and cakes etc and although the offerings today were limited, their web page shows a nice range of basic food. Coffee was hot and tasted very good.The owner was extremely friendly and happy to have a chat about their business. They also sell wines made from grapes on their property.Overall it's a very pleasant place which does have some potential. My suggestions for improvements would be the following:They do have a front door but it's not that clear. When you arrive all to be seen is a small door which actually looks like the front door of a house. Need to add some signage, a path and some other appropriate welcoming paraphernalia.The veranda out back is nice but there is a lot of junk around the place - piled on the deck and in the back yard. The toilet door is open and should be screened. Some landscaping and tidying up in the back yard would make it more appealing and more in line with an outdoor eating area. Also half of the deck is not covered making it unusable in summer and winter. These are only suggestions to improve the customer experience. It's very friendly and I do wish them all the best.

There is a spacious deck at the back where you can unwind and enjoy a delicious meal with a glass of wine. We tried the Greek pizza with three toppings, paired with GSM wine - a fantastic combination! And the best part is that the prices are very affordable.

The cafe always features beautiful works of art by local artists and the coffee is delicious. They also had some tempting treats in the cake display. The food was tasty and served well.
