We arrived at the tail end of the lunch hour, but were still able to purchase a very hearty pie and salad for lunch. The pie was the best I've tasted, it was full of those old fashioned chunks of real beef, inside a very tasty pastry case. The salad was fresh and tasty (not your usual boring old tomato and a piece of lettuce type of salad either). They serve a variety of teas, and the usual range of coffees. Also they cater for the gluten intolerant and the vegetarians too. I'm sure if you were Vegan they could whip you up something.

Soy milk is available too for teas and coffees and they also serve a range of freshly made slices and scones.

This is, for me, the best pie in Ballarat.

Approximate cost: $12.00
