CLOSING BUSINESS: on 31st January 2024
I am Craig Smith the owner of Dish Cafe and Dish Catering Co.All things must come to an end, so with a sad heart I have decided to close the business.
The cafe will be CLOSED for renovations and until further notice.
I moved my family from Sydney to Parkes in 2004, and in recent times have been considering retirement.
CSIRO is moving forward with new lease conditions, and so that was the nudge that it is time to go.
There has been many memorable moments since.
- tourists on their annual holiday run north to the sun, that drop in for a coffee and a chat.
- members of the Parkes community and surrounds.
- telescope staff that come over for morning tea, and teach me some basic astronomy.
- cyclists that enjoy a 25Km ride out here for coffee.
A warm thanks to all my customers and friends, and I hope to see you again.
