Family business, growing strong. 💛
This photo was taken many years ago — hard to believe my daughter now has her license and is chasing her own dreams. Watching her grow alongside our family business has been one of the greatest blessings.
Relocating to SA came with its fair share of ups and downs, but it’s taught us all something powerful: never give up. Some days are tough, some are joyful, but every single one is a step forward. I’ve always hoped that by sharing the real journey — the wins and the struggles — she’s learned that her path is unique and that true happiness comes from within, not from measuring against others.
As our business grows and evolves, so do we — but our core values remain:
🌿 Slow down
🍽️ Eat well
❤️ Enjoy the moment
You can find our range through our trusted distributor who shares our values when it comes to quality and genuine customer care.
Thank you for continuing to support small, local businesses like ours — we’re all in this together. 🙌
We are open every Friday from 2-10pm
And every Wednesday from 10-2pm .

Fancy a spot of scullery made tea from the Barossa Valley?
Why not pair it with one of our world-famous (well, at least Kanmantoo-famous) Hare Balls?
These delightful little morsels have been melting hearts and dancing on tastebuds—gluten-free, dairy-free, and made with a whole lot of love right here at the historic Britannia.
Served with a wink, a warm welcome, and a perfectly brewed pot, our Hare Balls are fast becoming a local legend. Come see what the fuss is about!
Something’s never change…. Still a favourite in the cafes…. Still hand made…. with love… ❤️
Open 10-2 Wednesday, 2-10 Friday , 12-4 Sunday.
