As we were heading down south I decided to pull in here to grab a coffee, namely because the last…read moretime we were in Willunga, it was the evening and all the coffee shops were closed. I rather liked this place, namely because of the service, but also having good coffee helped as well. This was one of those charming places on the main street, though it was rather quiet when we passed through. Still, as a place for coffee it is pretty cool.

I have had a number of coffees here lately, and they do vary…read more The best coffee maker I would say is the owner. I just wish she would train all the junior burgers up to make them just as good!! Wish list!! Her coffees are close to perfection so I'm not giving 5 stars until the others are up to scratch

Three cheers for Three Monkeys…read more Under the relatively new helm of Frieda (ex Flying Fish at Pt Elliot way back and now embarking on her own business) Three Monkeys has crossed the cafe divide from ho hum to well worth a visit. On a holiday Monday recently, Three Monkeys was brimming with other holiday makers lunching on their very simple but scrumptious gourmet items. The menu is based on local produce - and why wouldn't you be with McLaren Vale and the Fleurieu on your doorstep - and all freshly cooked. This quaint and quirky cottage has limited seating inside but a lovely outdoor area seating probably about 20 out back. There is also a delicatessen specialising in a very thoughtful and extensive range of cheeses and gourmet produce. Fantastic coffee also. I have my sights set on a weekend in Willunga soon to revel in this gorgeous town's over abundance of eateries. Friday night - Russell's Pizza, Sat morning Willunga Organic Market, Sat arvo drop into Three Monkeys for a delectable coffee and cake and pick up tasting plate supplies for a night in with a good drop of local Cab Sav by the fireside of a cute B & B (or a booking at Fino if I can't be bothered cooking) and finally breakfast Sunday am at the Green Room on High Street. Drive back along Aldinga Beach via the Victory Hotel at Sellicks and I have a weekend made in heaven!! Willunga in my opinion now beats McLaren Vale for a foodie weekend (excluding of course the legendary wine appeal of McLaren Vale)!

No really, I wasn't that hungry when I walked in here. And…read morethen I saw the cabinet of cheese, glacé cumquats and deli meats all from the Fleurieu in the cabinet. Then I read the menu (luckily breakfast finishes at 12pm otherwise I would have totally doubled up on my egg allocation for the day). And then the waitress apologised for serving a double shot of coffee to the customer, because that's how she always did it. And I knew my sensible eating plan for the day wasn't going to work. So instead of the planned "I'll just have some cheese and crackers," coming out of my mouth, I uncontrollably asked if I "could have the quinoa and carrot salad with fetta and flatbread please?" Before it arrived, I had talked myself into "just eating half of the salad and having the other half for dinner." And then I began to shovel piled forks of carrot and quinoa salad with dates and a white bean puree into my mouth and before I knew it, there was no doggy bag required. Even better was that they had run out of flatbread and so served me a couple of slices of their tomato polenta bread. It is now official, they should charge more than $13 for the salad and then ALWAYS serve this warmed and crispy with it in the future. Do not be fooled by the few seats inside and out the front, they have a lovely garden area out back for you to dine in with friends. This place would be delightful on a sunny autumn day or cold winter's morning and is one for the "bookmark" list of places to eat in Willunga.

Unfortunately coffee isn't the best I've ever had but it's not the worst. I tried the cinnamon tea cake, it was okay but I'm not sold on it. Customer service out standing, lady who served me was friendly and welcoming and informative of the selection of cakes (side note - they have delicious GF options for those who live GF). The shop itself, I see what they are trying to do with the vintage look and it's kinda cute and quirky. I will come back mainly to try their all day breakfast menu on offer! I'll add to my review when that happens.

A bit daggy and not the best coffee ever, but their homemade cake and biscuits are always yummoread more

The staff are friendly snd engaging, cleaning constantly so that there is no wait for the outdoor seating. If you are seeking a wholesome meal after morning spent at the nearby beach you should definitely pop in for a snack or sweet treat. You will not be disappointed. The middle size portion of cauliflower "fried rice" salad was perfect for a hungry girl (me)! My hubs was completely satisfied by the organic, grass fed hamburger and even raved about it the next day (!!), this from a man who is hard to please when it comes to burgers, if that tells you anything. If visiting Aldinga and wanting something fresh, delicious, and different than the usual fish and chips stop in and give it a go.

Staff are friendly always with a smile on their face and it doesn't take them long to put together a hot chocolate or coffee. The coffee and drinks are pretty standard. The hot chocolate is made with the usual cocoa powder. The food is a real winner though. Although a tad pricey, the prices are still pretty fair for coffee shops anyway. They have a breakfast and lunch menu. Sandwiches (toasted or fresh) both taste great and they do really good cake slices too. I haven't tried their breakfast however apparently they serve until midday each day.

Such friendly greeting from Jade behind the counter. Great menu selection for both breakfast and lunch. Many favourites from light meals to a more fuller option. We had eggs Benedict and eggs florentine with extra mushrooms on the side. Wow... we were not disappointed. I tend to judge a place by certain breakfast menu items.... You all must do yourself a favour and check this place out. Also good for coffee n cake before or after shopping.
