Open 9.00am-5.00pm Daily
Pharmachino was Warracknabeal’s first café. Named such because it is attached to the town’s Pharmacy. It is, however, quite a separate space. Scott St is the main street, Woolcock is a quieter side street. A large glass frontage forms the café’s Woolcock street wall. Plenty of natural light floods in. There’s about six tables inside, and a childrens’ play area inside and out. A good design, allowing parents enjoy a coffee as well.
Order and pay at the counter is the system used. On offer are cakes, scones (herb or plain), focaccias, sandwiches, cookies and biscuits. I ordered a long black and scones with jam and fresh cream. The service is quick, a wait of about three minutes. The long black comes with a decent crema and good flavour, you get a small wrapped mint choc on the side. The scones were excellent, fresh, right amount of jam and cream.
At 3.00 p.m. there’s a couple of 16 year olds chatting at a window seat, and behind me a man and his son. There’s no rush here, you feel can sit for a while and read the provided newspapers.

Great site and enjoyable reading. i have visited some of the sites you have reviewed and can only agree with your reviews. I will however not revisit Cafe Pharmacino, warracknebeal site as i was spooked by that bold headed man that featured in your photograph.
