Why Wye?

Answer: Because it's a million miles from the big city lights of Melbourne and it's got The Wye River General Store - the quintessential beach cafe.

The cafe might look a little bit on the plain side...

But it's situated right on The Great Ocean Road in a fabulous location where the river meets the sea...

More on the laid-back interior...

And the exterior..

However, the real drawcard is the bread and pastries, closely followed by the great coffee...

Just committing this to memory so that the next time we pass by Wye we will definitely make a pitstop.
