Located in Swifts Creek, the Creekers Cafe offers a great stop on the Great Alpine Road for real coffee in air conditioned comfort. Creekers offers high quality cafe Coffex coffee, as well as fresh foods and a range of Hunter and Gatherer products. So dine in and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of a family cafe, or order a takeaway. The site was purchased by Bill Grinter for £40 from Lindsay Jorgensen when the latter went to war in the 1940s. The building was constructed in 1947 by Vic and Russ Boucher for Bill Grinter (owner of a local transport company) as a storage unit known as "Grinters Shed". It was later sold and used as a mechanics workshop until 2004, when it was transformed into the fully refurbished up market cafe known as "Creekers". The building still has the original walls and floor and maintains the authentic look of "Grinters Shed". |
