First Street, Ardrossan, Yorke Peninsula
Wilmas on the Yorke is a cafe and gift shop on the main street of Ardrossan. Breakfast and lunch, Altura coffee, milkshakes and thickshakes, a cabinet of home baking, and walls of chimes, macrame, art and clothing to browse while you wait.
Open six days for breakfast & lunch
“Our meals were so big we didn't eat all day. Wilma's is outstanding… The service is good old fashioned country service.”
Tony Lalor, Google review
He also reckoned our medium coffee would be a large in the city. We'll take that.
Eat & drink
Pull in off the highway, park right out the front and grab a table. These are the plates our regulars and passers-by keep writing about.
The Big breakfast (eggs, bacon, thick toast), Archie's Eggs Benedict served with a croissant, and smashed avocado. Generous is the word people use.
Toasted wraps with fresh salad and more from the kitchen, plus the cabinet for something sweet after.
Freshly roasted by Altura Coffee, served in our teal cups. Iced coffee too, for the warmer days.
Behind the counter
Look for the hand-painted sign on the orange wall. Two spindle mixers, a whole shelf of syrups and a blender, ready for a shake or a thickshake whenever you are.

A few of the bakes we've posted on Facebook. Follow along there to see what's in the cabinet this week.
The gift shop
The whole cafe doubles as a shop. Wander the shelves while your coffee's on and you'll find plenty of beachy gifts and a few things you didn't know you needed.
“There is lots of decor items around the cafe, I often find little gems for gifts.”

“I’m so glad we decided to turn off the highway and come to this cafe for brunch. We ordered the Big breakfast and Archie’s Eggs Benedict- both were really good! Enjoyed looking at all the items for sale. Lots of macrame hangings, chimes, paintings, candles and much more. Loved the atmosphere, very warm and cozy. Coffee was excellent. Parking was easy, we parked right out the front. Toilet facilities were just across the road. Will definitely go here again when back in Yorke Peninsula 🫶”
