SAFAVI — Restaurant in Port Pirie

Detour off the highway. Its worth the stop. This cafe has a bright modern interior and lots of space. If you are wanting a small intimate cafe then perhaps dont come here but you certainly can still find a corner table or perhaps sit separately outside under one of the umbrellas with your friends. There is plenty of choice and quality tasty goods in the display cabinet. Far superior to many other cafes. My wife loved her coffee and I thoroughly enjoyed my simple serve of poached eggs on toast for $10. So prices are very reasonable and service was prompt and polite. I think this spot has a special different modern clean and tastefully designed dining area. I could imagine it providing a great alternative meeting and celebration function space. A real bonus to Port Pirie. Well done...

The food was so so and the scrambled eggs with bacon and hashbrown was way over priced for the small unimaginative serve received. The total price was $48 which really was way more than the service and...

Camped overnight at the back of the Federal Hotel, Port Pirie and had a chat and tour with the owner who is renovating the old pub and doing a great job (despite local council and neighbour interventions). Worth a pop in and drink or two. On the way home, we frequented Safavi's and were not disappointed. Very friendly staff, great coffee and tasty breakfast. A constant flow of customers with happy smiles as they left. Get in early, I think this place will become the go to place for breakfast, brunch and other...
