Bruthen Tearooms are a lovely stop as you pass through Bruthen. The lady who runs the shop is friendly and makes some of the tastiest toasties going. My Reuben sandwich was packed full of flavour from the homemade sauerkraut and Russian sauce. The owner also makes many award winning jams. We tried a couple on some scones and they were delicious. Do keep in mind that the shop only opens on weekends and that there is no eftpos. It is a very old-school place so expect to wait times to be slow as you enjoy the beautiful building and surrounds.

Wow!! Passing through Bruthen on Australia Day public holidays (27th 2025). We had 3 scones with home made jams, ice coffee(coffee over icecream YUM!!!) ham and cheese toastie. And the best gluten free cake I have ever had (iv eaten ALOT of cake!!). The service was personal and amazing, someone who clearly cares about what they are doing. It shows through in every part of our experience here. I will divert my trip from Melbourne to Raymond Island to enjoy the food and real chai tea again. Thanks so much. We will be back again.

My kids want to make the trip each time we visit the area and I’m never disappointed. The scones are consistently good and jams are sublime. The toasted sandwiches are always packed full of tasty goodness. Will be back again in a couple of months.

We just had the best scones with homemade jams and heaps of cream that were to die for. Very generous serves and the ladies were very pleasant. We bought the passion fruit and plum jam as it was a lovely tangy one. Recommend you stop there and try
