Something’s bubbling away here in Tanunda


It’s not the hot chocolate… a new Chief Decadence Officer (CDO) is in the house and Benni’s Café is being Bennified!

We’re delighted to announce that, after and extensive search we have appointed a new CDO, who has been busy sprinkling some magic across the café. There’s a definite buzz in the kitchen, a sparkle in the air, and the sound of a little magic happening!

The full Bennification is due for completion by 1 September 2025, so start planning your visit this Spring.

    29 August, 2025

    G’day friends, it’s me — Benni 🐨💖

    For a while now you’ve been hearing whispers, seeing hints, and feeling the buzz around Tanunda. Well, it’s finally time to spill the sprinkles…

    I’m officially your new Chief Decadence Officer (CDO) at Benni’s of Barossa!

    You might know me from the treetops along Burings Road, where I was the unofficial “Director of First Impressions.” From up there, I watched you come and go, listened to what you loved, and dreamed of ways to make life a little sweeter — and a whole lot more fun.

    Over the past few weeks, I’ve been paws-deep in the action with my team. We’ve been painting, cooking in the test kitchen, and even letting a few locals sneak a taste of the new menu. Let’s just say the reviews were choc-full of excitement.

    Here’s the plan:

    👉 It’s business as usual until 5 pm this Sunday, with our Winter Dining Domes wrapping up the season.

    👉 Then the magic begins… doors re-open 12 noon, Monday September 1st with my brand-new menu and a whole new fun vibe.

    I can’t wait to welcome you back inside. So bring your friends, bring your family, and most importantly — bring your sweet tooth. Because life’s too short for ordinary… it’s time to Bennify it.

    ✨ I’ll share more in the next Bulletin, but for now, here are a few of my favourite philosophies that I live by here at Benni’s of Barossa — and that our crew will share with you when you visit:


    • Life’s too short for ordinary — Bennify your day with a little something extra.

    • Chocolate is always the right answer.

    • Style matters… especially pink hats!

    • Smiles don’t cost a thing.

    • Time is a valuable asset — make time and create memories with the people that matter most.

    See you Monday!

    💖 Benni, CDO (Chief Decadence Officer)
