The Brookfield General Store and Cafe is a charming, quaint-looking cafe and general store nestled in the midst of an old wooden Anglican church and Brookfield showground. The restaurant offers a rustic dining experience with a laid-back atmosphere.
Built in 1874, the building was a school teacher’s residence for the National School, which would later become the Brookfield State School on Boscombe Rd. The Trustees of the Hall bought it and moved the building to its current location after the Department of Education decided to replace it with a bigger structure.
The Brookfield Store, or “The Shed” as the locals call it, opened in 1934 and has now transformed from a convenience store into a cafe with large indoor country-style table and chairs to match its rustic al fresco dining area. Their store is a perfect place to find fresh produce, bread, milk, chocolate, homemade sweets and condiments, and fine wine.
From morning ‘till night, the Brookfield General Store and Cafe is a place where locals and tourists go for a wonderful serving of hearty meals. This place, however, is best known for its wood-fired ribs and pizza variety including the Smoked Ham and Pineapple pizza and the Brookfield Meat Lovers pizza.
The cafe opens at 6:00 a.m. offering breakfast meals like the Salmon Scrambled—three eggs scrambled with sliced avocado on ciabatta, smoked salmon, and fresh mint leaves.
Lunchtime is a great time to enjoy their mouth-watering burgers and salads, including their Pulled Pork Burger–slow cooked Australian pork lavished with pineapple salsa and coleslaw on a sourdough bun.
