About Grant St. Grocer

Grant St. Grocer is the ultimate regional pitstop, matching specialty coffee and scratch cafe cooking with shelves of local provisions. Right in the heart of Alexandra, it caters to road-trippers heading to Lake Eildon and cyclists rolling off the Great Victorian Rail Trail. Morning crowds lean into pea and potato fritters, house-baked muffins, or a quick bacon and egg roll before hitting the track. The cafe doubles as a curated larder—stocking regional wines, artisan jams, and take-home curries ready to pack into camp coolers or heat up at holiday accommodation. Families take advantage of the dedicated play area and generous tables, while solo travelers recharge over iced lattes and bowls of handmade gnocchi.

  • Artisan Grocer & Ready Meals: Stock up on small-batch jams, regional Victorian wines, and chef-prepared take-home curries and ready meals.
  • Family-Friendly Amenities: Thoughtfully set up with high chairs, generous table space, and a dedicated indoor children's play corner.
