This hardware store has been at this location for quite a while. It used to be attached to the Home Hardware group, I think, but is now associated with the Mitre 10 group, so they have some good specials and this helps with their buying power, because it must be hard for the independent fellas to compete with the big super-stores now.
But that is part of the advantage with this store, you can find a staff member who will help you with your query (I always need help, because I am not very 'handy' at all).
They have a good range of all general hardware products, plus paint, timber, building supplies etc.
There is a good amount of off-street parking and it is fairly easy to get in and out of, even though it is on such a busy main road.

This is a very neat and clean bakery. I assume it has been recently refurbished, because it looks very modern and new.
There is a long service area along the front, with big glass counters displaying their produce, including premade rolls, wraps etc. that all looked very tempting. Behind this was a sit-down cafe area. Looked quite comfortable and busy, with a lot of people sitting down in this area. There is also a shaded area outside at the front with about 5 or 6 tables and seating if you want to sit outside.
I had a chicken and lettuce roll, on a really nice multigrain seeded roll and a streudel bun, that contained a good quantity of real fruit plus a Nippys juice for $14.30. The roll was about $7.30, the pastry $3.75, so that would make the drink $3.25. So, I guess this is about average prices for a bakery nowadays.
All very tasty. A lot of people coming and going. Clean and tidy. Friendly staff. So, overall, pretty good, would happily eat here again.

My wife and I had lunch here on Saturday. $24.90 each for the buffet lunch. There is a large selection to choose from, Chinese, salad bar, seafood, various roast meats, roast and steamed vegetables. Really nice and fresh, not at all greasy, good quality food. And a delicious dessert bar, pavlova, slices, cheesecakes, sticky date puddings, creme brulee etc., etc., and soft-serve icecream, with toppings for the kids.
The dining area is large with comfortable seating and room to move. Pleasant atmosphere, music from large-screen TV's around the walls.
There is a large bar, which also runs through to another dining area and also a fantastic outdoor beer-garden area, where you can also eat or sit and relax with friends in a nice setting with plants and covered booth areas for a bit more privacy and lots of open seating and tables. There are spray misters along the wall that were providing a pleasant, cooling mist over the outdoor area, to keep patrons cool on hot days. Gave it a real, relaxed, tropical feel.
A really nice hotel, we enjoyed our meal and dining experience here and will return again.

Approximate cost: $24.90 a head, Saturday lunch plus drinks.

This is an interesting little store, located about 4 stores along the top side of Denny Street from the main street of Berri, Vaughan Terrace.
There is a nice range of homeware items, suitable as gifts. Some very practical, some very quirky, most very different to the usual run-of-the-mill range in some homeware places.
Not cheap items, but good quality and the staff are very friendly and helpful, appeared to be a family-run business.

This small shop isnt the easiest to find, located one street west of the main street in Berri. It has a plain brick front, with 'Berri Noodle' and the phone number in red on the verandah, and is next to Riverland Real Estate.
The inside of the store is painted bright orange, fairly lairy, but distinctive. Apart from the loud colours, the store and food preparation area looked clean, neat and tidy.
It is a Noodle Box-style shop, with a large range of Chinese dishes, served in cardboard boxes with metal carry-handles. A generous serve for around $10.50 each. Also a range of sushi rolls available, pre-prepared but looked fresh, about $2.70 each.
My takeaway meal at lunchtime was prepared quickly and was hot and tasty. Staff were polite and friendly. Would happily eat here again.
Mainly takeaway, as there were only 2 small tables in the store and not a lot of room.
Open 7 days a week 'til 8 or 9pm nightly.

Approximate cost: $10.50

This gallery is in the middle of Berri, just west of the central roundabout on the main street. It is housed in an old stone building, that was apparently originally the old Irrigation Office.
When I was there the other day, it appeared that they were doing some work at the front to put in ramps for wheelchair access to the gallery.
There are several rooms in this gallery that were displaying a nice range of mainly local paintings and other works, including some jewellery and needlework. There were some interesting cheese boards made from old wine bottles, melted and reshaped, and some wooden sculpture pieces.
The prices werent too bad, there were pieces from about $25 up to several hundred dollars.
A friend who visits the gallery regularly told me that they have different exhibits here, changed every couple of months or so, he thought.
They are open 10am to 4.30pm, Monday to Friday.

We had lunch here recently. Fish, chips and salad, eat in at the cafe section. There are about 4 tables inside and a couple outside. The meal was very nice, we regarded it as similar to a pub meal in serving size and presentation. Price was probably similar as well. I'm not sure on the individual serve price, but 2 fish, chips & salad plus a 600ml iced coffee and 500ml bottle soft drink was $33.
The premises are fairly old, but it appeared to be clean and tidy and they were displaying awards for winning the best regional take-away (not sure when).
The menu also included steak sandwiches, hamburgers, pizza, sandwiches, foccaccias, yiros, hotdogs etc.
Well stocked drinks frigs, takeaway seemed to be the most popular.
Long trading hours, till 8 or 8.30pm, 7 days a week.

If you are looking for something different for a gift, or just want a sweet treat for yourself that is not the usual run-of-the-mill items, then this sweet shop is worth a visit.
Situated in a smallish shop in the new Murray Bridge Marketplace Shopping Centre, the premises are very modern, fresh and clean, bright and well presented,
There is a large range of overseas chocolates, lollies and other sweet treats. There are the American Hershey bar range and syrups, Twinkies, original USA Pop-tarts; English sweets as well and other hard-to-find items like Birds Custard Powder. Also Aussie items, like Castlemaine Rock.
Also various other European brands, I saw Swiss lollies, Nerds and Pez.
One line that particularly caught my eye, but wasn't brave enough to try, was Tabasco-flavoured chocolate (chocolate infused with Tabasco spice). It was pricey, at about $9 for 50g, but, I'd imagine you wouldn't need a big piece of it. Maybe next time!?

This is a fairly new farmers market, only started a few months ago, I think.
It is open every Saturday morning, from 8am to 12 noon, at Talunga Park, which is at the Mt Pleasant Showgrounds (also the oval and caravan park).
We were travelling through last Saturday morning and decided to stop and have a look. Glad we did.
There is plenty of parking close to the pavilion, so you don't have a long walk. There were several stalls outside, mainly fruit and veg. Inside there are probably 20 to 30 other vendors, mainly local farmers, producers and small businesses.
There was a seafood stall, bread and other baked items, meat, eggs, olive oil, as well as the fresh fruit and veges. We noticed there was also a stall selling bags of oranges, lemons etc.
You can also buy a coffee and something to eat. We treated ourselves to a tasty cake pop (from the citrus stall).
This is a nice, vibrant local market, with fresh produce, and some other interesting local regional produce.

This jewellery store in the main street of Nuriootpa has been owned and run by the Cailes family for about 25 years. They manufacture jewellery as well.
There is a good range of the usual type of items, as well as watches, the Pandora range and other gift items.
They also do clock and watch repairs, but I have not used this service myself.
It is a pleasant store, not cluttered; there are display cases around the walls, and a few lower glass cases around the floor area of the store.
When I was in there the other day, they were quite busy, all 3 staff were dealing with customers, but after I had looked around for a few minutes, one of the young staff members acknowledged my presence, apologised for the delay in serving me, and said that she would be with me shortly.
I found this to be very courteous. Rather than getting edgy that I had to wait, I was quite happy, because I had been recognised, and shown straight away that my custom was important as well. This little courtesy is overlooked in so many businesses nowadays.
The young lady was very helpful assisting me with my purchase, offering advise, as I have little knowledge with these things. My purchase was then nicely boxed, ready for gift wrapping.
I was very happy with my experience buying from this business and would happily return again.
