What a cosy little gem! The best smelling cafe EVER according to my son. What a beautiful little find in Geeveston for morning tea. Incredible coffee, hot chocolate and mouth watering buttermilk scones sitting
by the fire - thank-you for a wonderful experience.

Best-smelling cafe ever!

What a wonderful little gem this place is. It is positioned well in Geeveston, a wonderful town. There is a pharmacy, supermarket, post office and more. 

Just a small walk away you can take the platypus walk, look closely and you will see them swimming around. 

The manager is Audrey, what a host. Audrey is so accommodating, pleasant and makes you feel very welcomed. 

Sit on the lounge in front of the fire, have a drink at the bar or have an amazing meal (all home cooked). 

The rooms are spacious and tastefully decorated. This place has everything you need. I highly recommend you spending the time to stay here, even if you’re going through Geeveston, pop in and say hello.

An absolute gem 🐻

Today we arrived a little late for lunch in Geeveston. The Old Bank said our 2.24pm arrival was too late for them to provide lunch, when they close at 3pm. What the?? Ok, so we went to the bakery down the road. I’m guessing it must have been close to 2.30 & the woman virtually closed that door in our faces. Ok 😜
So we crossed the road to The Bears
They were open till 4pm. Great 👍 
I have to say we were delighted the others were unavailable as we would not have ended up here
The fellow was ‘a little left of centre’
Character wise (in a nice way)
It did take a while for lunch to materialise but to be fair he was working alone & I’m not sure he was coping with new guests every 10 minutes. (Prob because others shut)
But trust me, this lunch was worth waiting for & one out of the box. 
Unbelievable seafood chowder- expensive at $30 for the large but worth every cent. We shared with the soup and a $9 toasted sourdough sandwich. Omg. Wished I could return every day for lunch 
It was that good 
Well done mate
I like your style (& your cooking 🥘)

Take a chill pill

We rode our bikes around town and were hungry so dropped in. Had poached eggs on spinach and 2 bacon and cheese scones with Pesto. What a sensation. Jan had the sweet potato and red curry pie infused with yogurt pastry. Amazing taste. Juke box was playing 70,s music and Alex was very friendly and explained the meals to us. Highly recommend and it takes some time to make meals as good as this so relax and enjoy it. We did....

What a great place to eat late breakky 

If you consider staying, do it.  Good rooms with excellent cleanliness and a terrific cafe restaurant, managed in our visit by a charming and caring fellow who prepared most excellent meals.  The breakfast was as good as many 5-star hotels we have been to.  It is a cozy and traditional room arrangement with North American feel.  Brass beds, wallpaper etc.  
The name is obviously a quirky one, but this does not detract from the comfort that you feel when you walk in.  The fire was on, the drinks are good, and they are served with a great personal touch that was friendy and memorable.

Outstanding chef with friendly and caring demeanour

The restaurant is open during the day for lunches, but you can book for an evening meal. The menu is limited, but our party had three different dishes, all prepared to perfection, with love and flair.  Slow cooking a specialty.

Great slow cooked meal, cosy setting

Had the best breakfast there. 
Prices started around $14 up to 25 for the breakfast dishes. 
Good serving and very well cooked and presented. 
The fire was going and they had some great music playing. 
Highly recommended this cafe. 

Great breakfast 

This cafe/ restaurant has atmosphere, good service, and delicious food. What more could you want in Geeveston? It’s open till late which is a bonus in a quiet little town. The chowder was full of chunks of seafood. The lamb shanks were slow cooked on order and were hearty. 

Delicious Food

Stayed for 1 night on the way to Hastings Caves. Clean room, and comfortable bed. There is a large fire place in the common area to warm you up while eating breakfast, which was very good! Close to platypus walk, where we did see a platypus swimming around!

Nice bnb with lovely breakfast

My wife and I stayed there for 2 nights. Our room was nice but could have done with a small table and 2 chairs. We had a double bed and 2 bunks. Bed and pillows were comfy. Cooked b/fast was included in the tarif. The place was a boutique B and B. But it served evening meals and alcoholic drinks in the comfortable dayroom, cafe, bistro.At night they had a nice fire going in the fireplace. The food they served was of good quality and well presented. Some people might have had to wait longer than they expected, but like everywhere in Australia staff shortages were a problem. All up,our stay was quite enjoyable.
