Celebrating and enjoying time with our Mothers (Grandmothers, Step Mothers, Animal Mothers, Foster Mothers and soon to be Mothers)

Fossickers Fine Food & Eatery resides in London House, erected in 1883 by William Phelan, replacing the original 1860’s building destroyed by fire. Originally an “Outfitters” for local miners and their families, London House is now a cafe, wine bar, store and art space.
Enjoy a leisurely afternoon tea with a selection of homemade cakes, tarts and sweet things, with a selection of open sandwiches and warm savoury pastries. Enjoy our installation celebrating motherly love and spend some time with those you care about.
