Cudlee Cafe
« on: February 10, 2018, 05:45:33 PM »
I went on a short ride today with five mates, through some previously unexplored backroads in the Adelaide Hills, to the Cudlee Cafe at Cudlee Creek.   What a wonderful name.  The Cafe is a regular stopover for motorcyclists and cyclists who are riding the famous Gorge Road.    Food and coffee was good, and there's a decent playground for kids.  Unfortunately I didn't take a camera, and if I get back there in the winter, there's a massive fire pit outside, as well as plenty of room inside.   Babette Wilkinson, the owner, is a keen motorcyclist.

See    http://thecudleecafe.com.au/   for some info about the cafe

Great stuff.  I've always seen bikes there, but have never been in myself.

I always saw bikes at Cudlee Creek Restaurant Tavern  https://goo.gl/maps/Y9GdKp3ckro but don't remember the The Cudlee Café name; though having seen the location we have only gone past it.

It's around 2 or three km east of the Tavern.    Scan a short distance to the right on your supplied Google Map link and you'll see it.   :thumb

They do great coffee and the servings are a decent size.  Very friendly people and I always stop there if riding in the area

I know where it is just have never seen the need to stop anywhere close to what was once near home; Reynella East or over the other side at Smithfield Plains.

Last time we went past the Cudlee Café was when we had the Stanley Bridge Tavern RTE - not that I knew what it was back then https://goo.gl/maps/DDpDJHAhDhk
