Maggie's Rendezvous — Restaurant in Orroroo

Ordered scones, jam and cream. Was told there were "no scones" after having paid for them, offered "pumpkin scones" ..? .. or money back. What arrived was one pumpkin scone each, some butter and a little packet of anonymous honey. Where to start? A missed glorious opportunity for using local produce, though maybe the quality of the scones would mean real, as opposed to industrially produced, honey would never be used up. The "pumpkin scone" on each plate was very dry, probably a couple of days old, warmed in a microwave in an attempt to disguise the lack of original quality and/or the age of the food, in my opinion. The coffee was acceptable, which was just as well, because we'd have been unable to eat the scones otherwise. Staff didn't come out to clear empty tables as we and another 2 customers left, possibly realising that they couldn't in all conscience ask if everything was ok. It's a shame, but maybe the cafe is under new management. I've had many enjoyable meals and arvo teas there in the past....

Passing through, came across this wonderful Cafe with character and town charm. With quirky things for sale like vintage homewares and jigsaw puzzles to beautiful cards, baking needs and little knick-knacks, this was a great pit stop. But yes, it is a cafe! I had the most amazing hot chocolate, gluten free nut bar, gluten free cookies and gluten free apple cake... if I didn't have 100's of kms of driving to do, I would have turned around and bought all the nut bars and apple cake they had left! So refreshing having baked goods that you can tell are home made!

Highly recommend stopping in here if passing...

A great lunch stop coming from or heading to the Flinders ranges. Open on a Sunday unlike most other food places in Orroroo. Quality ingredients made for tasty sandwiches. The chips were hot and perfectly crunchy. We ordered the homemade macadamia maple ice cream cone and a brownie as takeaway after and we were so glad we did. They were both delicious, but the homemade ice cream is a MUST TRY. Friendly service, I’d recommend this place to anyone in the area. They have table games to play while you wait, and lots of gift and baking supplies to look through...
