Excellent lunch spot in Penola. Great service and the best pumpkin soup I have ever had! Kids had ham and cheese croissants and loved them too. Highly recommend!

Very friendly owner who made you feel welcome. Coffee was great and cakes were delicious and all home made and fresh out of the oven!! Definitely a place to drop in if travelling through Penola.

Probably the only place in this town where soup aficionados find solace during chilly days. Upon entering, you're enveloped in a warm, inviting atmosphere, complete with soft lighting and the comforting aroma of freshly brewed coffee. The ambiance is serene with nice rustic decor.

Great coffee using regionally roasted beans. We didn't stop for food this time however the owner/chef has a great reputation from previous jobs where we've had his creations. Drop past and tell him I sent you 🙂

As a couple of Kiwis touring country Victoria we stopped in Penola for lunch on a rainy Sunday and found The Red Shack Cafe. Casual and unpretentious, the food was wonderful, the coffee was excellent and the host was friendly and engaging with a fascinating back story. If our travels ever take us back that way we will be sure to return.
