Imagine the best of a nineteen fifties diner and a country cafe that does everything well and you have the Red Rose cafe. We ordered a simple hamburger and an egg chicken lettuce sandwich. Both were served up quickly and were absolutely delicious. Our host as well as being totally lovely, served up the best chai latte my wife has had in ages. Nice and hot and not too sweet. If you are passing through Moruya definitely with dropping in.

Food was amazing, no pre-made, breakfast wraps and burgers all made fresh. Very busy cafe, as a lot of others have closed. It’s worth the wait

Such a great spot! We had lunch there (family with 2 young kids). Food and service was so good - fish and chips were excellent as was the hamburger I had. Good coffee too, and great service. We'll definitely be back when we're in this neck of the woods again. Love the 50s cafe decor too! The booths are so cool.
