This is an odd place and a bit quirky. Because it's a carriage the tables are set out in a long line but in cubicles. There isn't a lot of space. When you arrive you walk past the small service and kitchen area which feels odd. The staff were exceptionally friendly and our food was ok. Coffee was awful though. It's a place for a one time visit but I wouldn't bother going back.

"Over 100 flavors of milkshakes" read the sign at the entrance. The restaurant is inside a train car, with sensational, warm and inviting decor. And the milkshakes, in addition to being giant, were delicious and cheap.
Set in an old train, this cafe has plenty of charm. We last enjoyed coffees and milkshakes - with over 100 flavours to choose from, this is a favourite for the kids. Friendly staff too.
Check this place out! Lavender, lollies and bath bombs... all mixed with smiles from the owners ..... I could live in that carriage. So much wonder in such a small and magical place:) Book a table now
A must visit place after you have send Hardys winery. The setup offers a shop of local sweets and nuts and a all day breakfast restaurant. The feel of the place is out of the world.
... and the attached shop is good for a browse also - it's a good place to fill up your bag with snacks. I've never eaten here but have had milkshakes and they're pretty good.
A visit helped to solve my search for tasty treats as gifts for friends. We also enjoyed the tempting and tasty samples. Very friendly service as well.
If you're after shakes and a light snack and Theres four or less of you it's quite good but opening hours are quite erratic Book a table now
Was great being able to sample the almonds before u bought them. The salted caramel were yum wish i had brought more.
Great family business with fresh food and amazing milkshakes! They also hire bikes to ride along the Shiraz trail
