Shopping for food
Balingup is a small town and does not have a supermarket, butcher or vegetable shop.
The general store sells milk, bread, frozen meat and some grocery items, and there is a fruit & vegetable shop in Mullalyup (5km from Balingup). Fre-Jac bakery bakes fresh bread five days a week (not Tues and Weds).
The nearest shopping centre with a supermarket are at Donnybrook and Bridgetown.

There are numerous cafes and a tavern in Balingup open during the day and good breakfasts are available at a couple of the cafes.  For an evening meal check out further details on our Eating Out page.
