About Local eateries and activities:
The local cafe -Little Piggy, just cross the tunnel under the railway, opposite Aldi shop. I quite like their fresh cooked food and the nice coffee. They open from 7am -2pm Monday to Saturday. They are kindly to offer our Karoola guests free coffee if you order the meals there. Beside the cafe, you also can find the Thai restaurant, Chinese take away as well.
The Aldi supermarket is very convenient for you to shop all the necessary groceries they open 7 days.
