The Big Galah and Gift Shop Bakery in Kimba was a wonderful surprise on our journey from Port Augusta to Ceduna. As we stopped to refuel and grab a bite to eat, we were greeted by the friendly staff who made us feel right at home. The food was absolutely delicious - I had a bacon and egg roll and coffee that was not only tasty but also very reasonably priced. The real highlight of our visit was seeing the iconic Big Galah perched proudly at the entrance. It's a fun and quirky Aussie landmark that's definitely worth a photo opportunity. The gift shop attached to the bakery was also well-stocked with a wide range of souvenirs and gifts that showcased local produce and Australian-made products.

Good flavour, nice wholemeal pastry, but not...

The pie was literally the worst pie I’ve ever had and it was lukewarm despite being in the pie warmer.
The roll tasted nice but was so soggy around the edges it put me way off.
The toilets were out of order, which I have a theory isn’t even true because for months staff have been having cracks about people using toilets if they aren’t customers- I reckon they’ve just closed them
Do not stop here for fuel or food. Not worth it, take your photo at the Galah and keep on driving to the Shell down the road, or the...
