Amazing coffee! They even have a variety of vegan plant milks.

Downside is the only vegan they had was a brownie, which was delicious.

Dissapointing that such a great cafe with good food, coffee and service does not provide a bin to discard customer's bargage and left overs. I could not find a bin outside so I went inside. No bins to be seen inside either so I left my garbage on the counter only to be told they did not have a bin and that I had to pick it all up and cross the road to discard of our garbage (for four people) in the public bin. Something to work on, it tainted our experience a little)

Great little spot with plenty of food options. Coffee was excellent along with the toasted sandwich & gourmet potato pie.

Truthfully the best pie and sausage roll I ever tasted. The report was the same from my two travelling companions. Thoroughly recommend Forrest General Store. We also stocked up on other supplies for our trip. Professional service. Thanks to all at Forrest General Store.

Quirky little providore with excellent coffee and cakes - some gf - along with a wide range of local produce. Nice outdoor seating. Buy a shopping bag.

Best sausage rolls and a great find on our travels to Apollo Bay! We’ll be back when we’re next in the area!

We purchased a few salads from the Forrest General Store for our Christmas Party and they were absolutely delicious and enjoyed by everyone! I would highly recommend Forrest General Store for catering.

Such good selection and tasty treats. Very cute, gourmet shop. One of the best coffees we have had on our road trip. Great selection of foodie gifts as well. Thanks.

Friendly service, great hot chocolate and such a wonderful range of items - suits well as a pit stop before an Airbnb or camping to pick up a few local items. Also has basic essentials.

Very worthy stop over! Excellent coffee and daily baked treats. Loads of small goods and different food to stock up on! Super friendly hosts.

There were amazing products on display but the ones I purchased did not display a price. I consider $46 for a rocky road, freckle chocolate bar, small jar of mustard and 2l milk excessive. None of these were worth $11+ each. Must have been a big mistake!

Cute shop with lovely wares and staff, but I was only there for my flat white addiction and coffee was average.

This store is a diamond in the rough. Stopped here yesterday morning travelling home from Apollo Bay. Anne (think it was the name) so helpful and served up a beautiful plate of sour dough toast with honey and coffee. The Red Gum salt purchased to accompany our steak last night was superb. Whoever rated this gem of a business 1 is on another planet. We shall be rtn later in the yr to enjoy this hospitality.

Great coffee, homemake food, local wines and goods.
We really appreciate this upbeat business. The staff are friendly and the owners work really hard. Open every day.

Best Homemade Chunky Beef Pie I’ve ever had!
Meat was tender & Chutney was spot on!
Definitely recommend stopping by as you pass through Forrest.

Very expensive pie that unfortunately wasn’t nice at all and I ended off throwing it in the bin. Service matched the pie.

Hi there Forrest store

Thank you every time we are in the area we stop by and grab bread our lunch and something from your grocery.
Your sausage rolls are a solid 9.4 / 10 they are amazing. Hold myself back at eating two.
Haven’t tried the pies yet due to gorging on the S Rolls yet reading the other reviews they must be incredible.

The fresh bread is also a must.
Getting hungry just typing this.

Thank you guys and keep up the amazing work. Yes we are kicking around melbourne in one of your hats and using your heavy duty shopping bag.
