Greek Cafes
Greek migration to Australia began in the early colonial period when, in 1829, seven Greek sailors were convicted of piracy by a British naval court and sentenced to transportation to NSW.
Orange had several of these establishments, but ‘The Rose Marie’ was one of the best. In fact, a 1928 advertisement described it as : “The leading rendezvous of all tourists and others seeking a maximum of satisfaction and the best of service and attention.” And also offering: “Oyster suppers as a specialty”. In fact, the first Greek cafes originally traded as oyster saloons, the owners sponsoring family members and others from the same region of their homeland, to join them. I spoke some time ago to Nick and Paul Kringas whose father, George, owned the “Rose Marie” in Summer St opposite the Royal Hotel.
cow, complete with milkmaid, who was apparently obtaining real milk from the animal. As president of the Greek Community Association, which raised funds to build the swimming pool, he was particularly anxious to participate in the Cherry Blossom Festival Parade. And it was at this festival that the milking cow made an appearance on the back of a truck.
Despite this unhappy beginning, the way of life must have agreed with them because a wave of free migrants arrived in the 1850s with the discovery of gold. In the 1901 census, it was recorded that there were 878 people of Greek birth living in Australia — many were owners of shops and restaurants. In the mid-20th century, every country town boasted at least two cafes — a “Niagara” or a “Paragon” or perhaps even a “Parthenon.” They were sumptuous ‘art deco’ masterpieces, the like of which have never been seen before or since and they successfully catered for the population’s hunger before being superseded by the chains of ‘takeaways’ that we know today.

George’s contribution was to have a reluctant Nick march in the Parade dressed as a milkshake container. They described it as an “impressive establishment with seating for 175 which, they think, made it one of the largest in NSW." They were also able to paint wonderful visual pictures of the café. All the crockery, as well as each chair, was engraved with the letters ‘RM’. George Snr. had the same initials set into the footpath and today these are heritage listed and still can be seen between the Post Office and the Commonwealth Bank. Nick had the job of keeping them bright and shiny with a polishing rag and a lot of elbow grease. “There was a decorative spiral iron staircase leading to accommodation for the male staff; who were mostly newly arrived Greek migrants who couldn’t speak English,” said Nick.
who all earned pocket money for helping in the café. Their father, Nick and Paul said, was meticulous about cleanliness and scrupulously inspected his staff every morning to make sure they were dressed correctly in the brown and green uniform on which was embroidered the ubiquitous “RM”. George himself always wore a white shirt and tie and Maude, who sat at the cash register, was the only one exempt from wearing a uniform. “No ‘wog’ food was allowed,” Paul told me. “We were known for the quantity and quality of our food and the signature dishes were Chicken Maryland with crumbed banana and pineapple and of course the well-known “mixed grill”.
“It was huge, almost seven feet high, made even higher by a tall straw coming out of the top,” remembers Nick with some horror. “I carried the thing on a wooden harness strapped to my shoulders, inside the container and walked down Summer Street advertising milkshakes. “The weight of it and the heat finally got to me and I began to stagger. To my huge embarrassment, the man at the microphone called out: ‘Would the milkshake stop staggering and try to walk in a straight line’!” The customers were, of course, of great importance and most of them seem to have very fond memories of the “Rose Marie.”
On Thursdays, which was stock market day we were always full.”
Pam lived in Bathurst as a child, but her mother had been born in Orange and “It was always a special treat when we came to Orange to eat at the “Rose Marie.”
The large Dalwood dishwasher, operated by one of the children, was in constant use and the massive coolroom kept the food fresh.
As mentioned before, George Snr was a man of many talents, particularly when it came to advertising his establishment.
Paul and Harry remembered with nostalgia, the banana splits and icecream sodas and the excellent service.
George and his wife Maude had four sons — Nick, Chris, George and Paul —
In the window of the shop, George had constructed a large mechanical
Nick had mixed feelings about this.
