Wye General Store is a combined café and convenience shop beside the Great Ocean Road in Wye River, a small coastal settlement between forested slopes and the ocean. It has been a practical break on the drive, pairing a meal or coffee with basic supplies rather than serving as a separate sightseeing attraction.

The cafe side has been promoted for all-day brunch, coffee and pastries, while the shop has carried everyday groceries and fresh produce. Visitor accounts often praise the coffee and brunch; others report slow service, order mistakes and uneven meals. It is best thought of as a convenient stop rather than a place with one must-order dish.

The business is described as having mountain and ocean views, and visitor information lists outdoor dining and a carpark. Its appeal is the combination of a meal break and local resupply in one stop; no well-supported founding story or signature menu item emerged.
