OUR STORY

Welcome To The Patch Store

The Patch Store & Post Office has been serving the community of The Patch for over a century. A post office was first opened in The Patch on January 16, 1890. The post office was initially named "Patch," but it was later renamed "The Patch" in 1970.

In the early days, The Patch Post Office served as an important communication and service centre for the local rural community. It was a place where residents could send and receive mail, purchase stamps, and possibly access other services such as banking or telegraph communications.

Throughout its history, The Patch Post Office has undergone many changes however, it still continues to serve the The Patch and Hills residents for over 130 years as both a Post Office and The Patch Store & Cafe.

Today, The Patch Post Office & Store continues to provide postal services to the local community. Natalie and her staff have woven The Patch Store into the fabric of the town. More than just a place to grab a bite, it's a home away from home, thanks to the special magic of the people who pour their hearts into every moment shared within its walls. A must visit for anyone living around or heading to the hills.

ONLY THE BEST

Fresh Ingredient, Tasty Meals, Cheeky Service!

The Patch Store is more than just a local café; it's a champion of the community's growers and vendors. Nat, the owner, believes that shopping local is the key to not only providing the freshest ingredients in their dishes but also supporting the heart of The Patch and the surrounding community. By sourcing produce, meats, and artisanal goods from nearby farms and makers, The Patch Store ensures that every plate is filled with the best the region has to offer. This commitment to local suppliers is an extension of their values, fostering a strong sense of community and sustainability. Nat and her team take pride in knowing the names and stories behind each ingredient, from the heirloom tomatoes grown just down the road to the honey harvested by the local beekeeper. By supporting these local growers and vendors, The Patch Store not only serves delicious, fresh food but also invests in the future of their tight-knit community.
