Stopped in for a hot drink & a bite to eat. Excellent service, lots of food options.
Had a hot chocolate & bacon & egg muffin.
Hot chocolate was yum. Great flavour & temperature.
Bacon and egg muffin was pre-made then heated. It was very yummy too.
What we had was definitely good.
Such a nice little cafe with beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. The man behind the counter was top notch for service. Such a lovely guy. Doesn't look much when you come in but food was amazing ! Highly recommend the Alpine Big Burger. Cozy fire and a lovely stop on our way through to Hanmer šš

We dropped by here for a feed. Yummy food. Just needs a bit more beautification. Make sure you eat inside as lots of sandfly outside haha
Always a hit or miss. Have had to take my coffees back in because they weren't flat whites and they were only half full.
Have had to biff a few things that I've ordered to go. Buuuut they do amazing burgers!!!! I'll see if I have a photo somewhere! They were tasty and I'd definitely buy them again. They were super busy on Easter weekend when I was in last so obviously the service wasn't great and they kept forgetting things for my order so I had to hover at the counter next to the long line of people awkwardly who kept thinking I was pushing in.
To be honest, we weren't expecting much - but this is a classic case of 'don't judge a book by it's cover'. The teenagers gave their burgers top marks, and my rib eye was perfect. Honestly, $68 for three meals and drinks was exceptional value, especially considering how tasty it was. The service was fantastic, too. Seeing a weka in the carpark as we were leaving was a lovely added bonus!
Delicious burger.. variety in food, quick service... Very friendly staff
Wow !
I havenāt stopped here for 20 years !
Because it still looks the old worn out cafe from the roadā¦.
Then as a friend pulled over & I followedā¦.. what a superb food layout indoors.
Seal of approval with the awesome eatables. Great pies.
BUT
maybe to start by giving the building a clean fresh welcoming CĆ fe paint job on the outside would entice traffic to stop and explore within. Iām guessing most would not even know itās thereā¦
We were staying in a motel just down the road and wanted to grab some breakfast only to find on dinning in which was disappointing but after talking to the owner I understood why.
Covid has had a major effect as it has to all businesses. But apart from that I enjoyed my experience as he was warm, inviting and was willing to help me with as much as possible to give me what I needed. So please if you are going through springs junction please stop and support this business and any other like this.

this place has improved in quality of food drink and service since I last called there. I think the main reason is new owners. friendly smiling and interested. the decor is still dated but the place is clean tidy food good restrooms clean. worth stopping and I can recommend the home cooked bacon and eggs pie.
Stopped by here whilst driving through. Partner and I are newly vegan, so weren't expecting to have much choice, especially in such a rural area. SO pleasantly surprised. 2 vegan pies and a black bean vegan burger as well as some vegan desserts. Vegan pie and chips were good, burger was delicious!! Even came with vegan aioli (!) and vegan cheese. Service was exceptional. So considerate, they even asked if we wanted them to use a vat of canola oil instead of animal oil. They heated up a fresh vat with canola for us, had to wait an extra 10 mins but so worth it. Staff very lovely, they care about what their customers want and are open to feedback. Will definitely come back if passing through. Thanks guys! :)
