As a family, we shared a light lunch at Atelier Cafe. The atmosphere was lovely. There were wonderful art displays and craft items for sale that created interest in our group. Service was fine, albeit a little slow, and the food was okay. Maybe a tad overpriced for what one gets, (see attached images). Parking was an issue. One needs to either park in the very small carpark at the rear of the cafe or in the tennis club carpark. Then one must walk around to the front of the cafe along the narrow road. Parking for the disabled is directly in front of the door. It is a bit tight getting into the right spot to unload walkers and the somewhat immobile guests. One then needs to back out onto the road and park at the rear.

The coffee here at Atelier is exceptionally good. Lovely little gallery to have a look around too.

Lovely and relaxing cafe and art space, I agree with others' reviews. They hold art classes and have live music on Sunday's throughout February 2023. Parking is, however, at a premium. There is one disabled park onsite. Their rear carpark is accessed via Cox Creek Rd, (unfortunately no access to the the cafe / gallery just yet), and some will find the walk to the front door slightly too steep. Limited parking on Cox Place. Parking aside, it is well worth the visit.

The perfect spot for coffee and cake, wine (organic if that's your thing) & cheese (vegan included!), or curry & cocktails (on a Friday night). And all whilst you are surrounded by electic mix of art works, craft, knitwear, jewellery, makeup and skin care. What makes the experience even better is the amazing owner and her staff!

This place is amazing! Beautiful interior and outdoor seating. They sell a huge amount of local art work and crafts. What a wonderful way to promote local artists! I spent ages looking around. There is a huge selection. The food cabinet offered vegan and gluten free options. Even the bathrooms in this establishment was beautiful and clean. It is on a hill but there is one disabled park at the front, and a car park up the hill around to the left. The coffee wasn’t and and they had soy milk. I will be back with friends and family. Thank you =)

Lovely gallery with a range of visual arts, jewellery and handicrafts from local artists. Wonderful coffee and a nice assortment of cakes and goodies. Staff is friendly and efficient. Perfect for a mid-morning or lazy afternoon stop and wander.
