The cafe at Spring Bluff Station is the perfect spot to stop for a coffee after a drive through this beautiful countryside. They serve a variety of cakes and danishes to go nicely with a hot beverage. They were also cooking up a savory tart as part of their lunch menu when we were there, and it smelled so delicious that we wished we could have stuck around for another meal. The carrot & almond cake was crumbly and delicious, and you can't go wrong with a Merlo coffee.
The cafe is housed in the former station master's house. Many of the rooms have interesting items of art and decor which are available for purchase. There is plenty of seating indoors, or there are covered tables outside to better take in the beauty of the gardens.
They also have plenty of picnic tables, a covered barbeque area, plenty of room for the kids to run, and even a small basketball court. It would be a perfect spot to bring your own lunch for a relaxing afternoon too. read more
