[DRAFT-REAL] Is there a café? Do I need to book?
A volunteer-run kettle counter — coffee, scones, winter soup. No bookings, walk in. For a proper meal try Three Sugars (across the road) or Cog’s (300m east).

[DRAFT-REAL] Are kids welcome?
Always. We keep a small basket of activity sheets and beeswax crayons by the desk. School holidays we run a Wednesday morning making session — free, drop-in.
-
[DRAFT-REAL] How long should I plan?
Forty-five minutes to wander the shop, see the wheel, drink a tea. Two hours if you also want a redwood walk or to read every label. A weekend if you’ve come for an event — there’s plenty within walking distance.
-
[DRAFT-REAL] Are dogs welcome?
In the courtyard yes, on lead. Not inside the shop, except assistance dogs. Water bowl by the front door.
-
[DRAFT-REAL] Do you have wi-fi?
Yes — waterwheel-guest, no password, please be reasonable. Mobile coverage is patchy on Telstra and weak on the others; we have a landline at the desk if you need to make a call.
-
[DRAFT-REAL] Can I take photos?
Yes for personal use. We ask you not photograph other visitors without asking. For commercial / press shoots please contact the comms group first.
