Kensington’s High Street Cafe wins big at national awards

Adelaide’s own High Street Cafe has brought home a gong at the National 2022 Restaurant & Catering HOSTPLUS National Awards for Excellence.

One of Kensington’s popular eateries, High Street Cafe, has scooped up the bronze gong for the Best Coffee Shop in Australia.

The National 2022 Restaurant & Catering HOSTPLUS National Awards for Excellence was held at Gambaro Hotel in Brisbane recently, celebrating the achievements of Australia’s finest hospitality businesses.

Businesses across the restaurant, café and catering sector who had previously won Awards in their respective categories at a state and territory level were formally recognised at the event.

High Street Cafe opened late 2020 in the leafy eastern suburbs of Adelaide. It was a space created to welcome social interaction and encourage a sense of community and belonging during Covid-19. The cafe has proven itself to be a mainstay in the East.

Owner Mick Beech and the team are passionate about creating the perfect cup of coffee, and so they use only the finest locally roasted coffee beans.

Restaurant & Catering (R&CA) President Mike Palmer congratulated the High Street Cafe on behalf of the Association and thanked them for their participation in this year’s Awards.

These awards highlight the very best of the best from around Australia and celebrate the amazing achievements of our fantastic hospitality scene”, Mr Palmer said.

“On behalf of R&CA, I want to pay tribute to the High Street Cafe on their award tonight and wish them much success in the future. The awards are always highly competitive, with the very best of what our nation’s hospitality industry has to offer so this award should be all that more special”.

Beech said it was fantastic to be recognised by their peers in the hospitality industry as the best that Australia has to offer.

“Considering we are only just 2 years old it’s a real credit to our hard working staff and our lovely customers who come in each day and support the cafe.”

R&CA is the industry association representing tens of thousands of restaurant and catering businesses across Australia. To view the full list of category winners in the 2022 Australia Restaurant & Catering Hostplus Awards for Excellence, visit the R&CA website at www.rca.asn.au.
