The modern multi-storey building has a modest open-air car park to the west of George Street. It is timed, with ticketed boom gate entry, with the first 1½ hours FREE once a day. The fees being @2018:
0 - 1½ hrs FREE/Day
1½ - 2 hrs $5
2 - 3 hrs $10
3 - 4 hrs $20
4 - 5 hrs $30
5 - 6 hrs $40
The store is easily wheelchair accessible - once you have some of the limited parking. There was sufficient trolleys - but at that time no shopping baskets; likely to have been resupplied. The Special of the Day has remained the same price over nearly four years, however the size of the packet of chips has dropped by 20g - GREAT value still! They sell alcohol, with slightly different Liquor Trading Hours, as listed below. Sales from particular checkouts.
* Some history of the area: 'The Bakehouse Quarter' comes from many acres immediately around here on George Street being occupied by the Arnott's Biscuits company for almost 100 years - until they moved the bakehouse factory to a new building in western Sydney. They had employed 2,000 employees, and it was thought to be the biggest of its type in the southern hemisphere, and still have their corporate office in one of these buildings. Back in my High School days, of travelling on the 'red rattler' trains, where we could still easily open the carriage doors, many of us would open up the doors as we passed here, and lean out, taking BIG breaths of the sweet smell of the biscuits baking! The original factory opened in 1908, with subsequent redevelopment of the site in 1998. [Some info ex-Bakehouse Quarter]
