Couldn't have said it better.

Takaka-ville's main drag, littered with well-to-do cafés and golden-youth hangouts, can obviously sustain heavy touristic traffic during the high season but displays a melancholic loneliness when deserted. If you ever drove through Berry on your way to Nowra on a cold winter weekend, you know what I mean... And while I'm at it – in the spirit of Chockstone's penchant for controversy I revel in – the Berry Sourdough Bakery & Café serves the best croissant in NSW and perhaps in the whole of Australia. There, I've said it.
