About Stirling Cellars & Patisserie
A cafe and patisserie in Stirling, South Australia, that shares its space with a bottle shop and wine bar. That combination surprises first-timers, and it's a big part of the appeal. Locals describe a place that feels a little hidden but turns out to be a real find, with a relaxed, easy atmosphere.
Pastries are the main draw. People rave about the croissants, with the almond one coming up by name, and some look out for the giant meringues. There's a decent spread of savoury and sweet options, and a number of the pastries suit different dietary needs, so there's usually something for everyone. Pies and sausage rolls have their fans too, and the pie is what this bakery in Stirling is known for. One cyclist who wandered in hungry called his pie and drink as good as it gets. We've heard the odd grumble about a day-old pie or a so-so coffee, but most people leave happy, and the coffee gets plenty of praise. It's brewed from a Five Senses blend, and one local described it as smooth and not bitter.
Beyond the baked goods, the menu runs to salads, frittata, takeaway sandwiches and heat-and-eat meals, plus a weekend brunch. Regulars swear by the chicken salad and the Nutella dessert, and one even calls in daily for a latte and lunch. Prices are seen as fair for a proper feed, and they hand out free containers for takeaway, which people appreciate.
You can dine in or take away, and delivery is available too. There's comfortable cushioned seating inside, which suits older visitors, and outdoor tables as well. Accessibility is good, with a wheelchair-accessible entrance, seating, toilet and car park. It sits behind the pub next to Foodland, with undercover parking below and short-term spots at the front door.
Staff are friendly and helpful. One local singled out Finn for his service, and others mention how knowledgeable the team is with wine and craft beer. The shelves are well stocked with local and interstate bottles, clearly labelled so you can spot what's local. It's open long hours, but check the hours before you head in.
