Motherduck

Welcoming in locals and those on a day trip out to Goolwa is Motherduck café, sitting snugly inside a historic building along Cadell Street. A warm ambiance radiates from charming stone walls dating back to 1909, transformed with a splay of new and recycled building materials in earthy tones and cast in a soft glow of light. Relax over a coffee crafted from boutique Melbourne roaster Proud Mary and decide between sumptuous dishes filled with local produce, from Woodside cheese to mulloway from Coorong. Start with a tasty, guilt-free meal such as roasted pumpkin with sundried tomato pesto topped with fresh chives, marinated Persian feta and poached eggs dusted with dukkah before splurging on a decadent dessert of stem ginger cheesecake with flaked chocolate and Tweedvale double cream.
