Dimboola Store

Five minutes off the Western Highway, this Lloyd Street room has become the reason a good many Adelaide-bound drivers stop in Dimboola at all. Genovese coffee, all-day breakfast and lunch are served across four distinct spaces the owners have named the Living Room, the Common Room, the Snug and the Alley, so the mood shifts depending on where you sit. It is as much a shop as a cafe: shelves of local produce sit beside homewares and a small run of fashion, and the whole reads as a considered attempt to give a small Wimmera town a room worth lingering in. Reviews stay consistently warm on the coffee and the baking, and it keeps seven-day hours through the middle of the day.
