Bodalla General's Monthly High Tea Sitting
Bodalla General hosts monthly Sunday high teas from our bakery café at 81 Princes Hwy, Bodalla, NSW 2545. Each sitting features house-made pastries, finger sandwiches, and scones served with tea and coffee. Bookings are required. Call (02) 4473 5213 to reserve your table for the next available Sunday sitting.
A Table Worth Sitting Down For
When you arrive for a high tea sitting, you'll find the café dressed for the occasion. Every item on the table is made on site that morning: scones with jam and cream, finger sandwiches on house-baked bread, and sweet pastries from the same oven that produces the morning's pies. This is a small-town bakery on the main street of Bodalla, not a hotel ballroom—and that is exactly the point. It suits birthdays, bridal morning teas, Mother's Day outings, and any occasion that calls for something more considered than a café order.
Sittings are held once a month, which means seats are genuinely limited. Groups who arrive without a booking are turned away. The experience is worth planning for. Browse our freshly baked pastries to get a sense of what comes to the table, and get in touch early to hold your preferred Sunday date.
Booking a High Tea Sitting Is Straightforward

Sittings fill quickly, particularly around Mother's Day, Easter, and school holidays. We recommend enquiring at least two to three weeks ahead of your preferred date. That way you have the best chance of securing the sitting you want.
