A rewards program for those who live, shop & support local in the hills

welcome to the hills CLUB!

The Hills Club brings together everything we do in one place. Whether you’re grabbing a coffee, stocking up on garden and rural supplies or booking essential services like firewood, gas or water, you can earn rewards for supporting a local business that has served the hills since 1885.

What is The Hills Club?

The Hills Club is our way of rewarding customers who choose to shop local and support the wider General Store & Over the Road business.

Unlike a standard café loyalty card or a one-dimensional retail rewards program, The Hills Club works across the full range of what we offer. That means your everyday spend can build rewards whether it happens over the counter, in the yard, or through our delivery and service operations.

One membership. One points balance. One set of rewards across everything we do.

Earn Accross Our 3 Pillars

The Hills Club is designed around the way people actually use our businesses here in the hills.  Earn points not just from that coffee, but from how you live, work and enjoy the hills everyday.

Our Cafe's & General Store

Enjoy your morning coffee, pantry staples, gifts, takeaway, meals and everyday local favourites while earning points along the way. Available at both the Upper Beaconsfield General Store & Over the Road

Garden & Rural Supplies

Earn when you shop our range of garden supplies, landscaping materials, pet food, stockfeed and other rural essentials for your home, hobby farm or rural lifestyle property.

Essential Services

LPG Gas, Firewood and Water Cartage, along with our rainwater services providing Gutter Cleaning, Water Tank Cleaning and other practical services, your support here counts too.

How The Hills Club Works

3 Levels of Membership

The Hills Club is designed to recognise increasing support of the business over time. Everyone starts as a Member. From there, the more you engage with us, the more you unlock.

Where Everyone Starts

Join The Hills Club for free and begin earning points across all three pillars of the business. Members enjoy access to standard rewards and offers and can start building value from day one.

For regular supporters of our business

Local recognises customers who choose to make us part of their regular routine. Whether that means your daily coffee, ongoing pantry top-ups, garden supplies, pet food or home services, this tier reflects a stronger connection with the store and unlocks additional value over time.

Our most exclusive tier

The 1885 Club recognises a small group of our most engaged customers. Named after the year our business began serving the hills, this tier is designed to feel special, personal and genuinely rewarding.


1885 Club members may receive access to exclusive perks such as invitations to special new menu tasting or preview events, priority access to selected seasonal products or services, personalised offers and surprise rewards & recognition through a premium membership experience


Please Note:
Because the 1885 Club is designed to stay small and meaningful, entry may be limited and based on overall engagement with the business, not just spend alone.

Why The Hills Club is different

Most loyalty programs only reward one part of how you shop. The Hills Club is different because it reflects the way people live in the hills.

A morning coffee. A bag of stockfeed. A firewood delivery. A water booking. Garden supplies for the weekend. It all adds up.

That means more opportunities to earn, more reasons to stay connected, and more value for customers who support local across the broader business.
