Upcoming! Afternoon Tea with Prof. Rose McGready
Afternoon Tea with Prof. Rose McGready
Join us for a special event to raise money for the Dr Rose McGready Foundation at our Dickson Cafe. We are excited to share our space with such a powerful organisation to help raise funds to assist vulnerable and displaced mothers and babies on the Thai-Myanmar border.
Our staff will be preparing Burmese inspired snacks for you to enjoy.
Half of the ticket prices goes directly to the foundation.
Hi and welcome, we're Stepping Stone!
We're more than just a café with delicious vegetarian food and fantastic coffee. We're a stepping stone for migrant and refugee women, offering employment and tailored training for those struggling the most to find employment due to language barriers, lack of qualifications, or the necessity for flexible hours.

Our menu is flavourful, fresh, and constantly evolving, and features a variety of dishes inspired by the amazing women we work with, all made with locally sourced, seasonal ingredients.
We’re all about great food that’s good for you and the planet.
