Has very recently reopened under new management as at
15 June 2025. Selling drinks, ice creams, coffee and artwork
The Thai food was good. We ordered Pad Thai and Fried rice. The portion was very huge. Good place to stop over for food before heading to Ubirr rock site.
Coffee, ice creams and a few frozen goods but not much else to eat. A selection of art from Arnhem Land Injiluk art centre. Meeting place for tours. Rock art and boat trips nearby.

Reviews
Visitors to Ubirr Border Store - Injalak Arts have shared mixed reviews about the offerings. While some enjoyed the Thai food options like Pad Thai and Fried rice, others were disappointed as the Thai cafe had closed down years ago. The store sells a limited selection of art and souvenir items along with drinks, ice creams, and coffee. Reviewers appreciated the new management reopening the store in June 2025, providing clean toilets across the road. Visitors found it a fantastic place to buy authentic art created by Injalak artists at reasonable prices while enjoying refreshments before heading to Ubirr Rock for a stunning sunset.Review score

A limited selection of art and souvenir items. “Coffee and tea available” but I didn’t try it. Two kinds of soft drink and a range of ice creams. That’s it. “We might get some Coke next week”.
Don’t go expecting food. The Thai cafe closed some years ago but it still comes up on face book and ‘tourism top end’. We drove 45 minutes from Jabaru for lunch here then the boat tour and Ubirr tour. They only flog art, ice creams and soft drink. VERY disappointed and no apology when we mentioned the outdated web and face book advertising.
