Here are the opening hours and quiet/busy times. Sunday * 12pm to 7pm Monday * 10am - 7pm Tuesday * 10am - 7pm Wednesday * 10am - 7pm Thursday * 10am - 7pm Friday * 10am - 3pm Saturday * Closed This review will probably change to five stars when I go. Still, I'm a big online fan because otherwise I can spend half a day looking for somewhere to eat. And the online menu does say they love people with allergies. However there is no mention of gluten or gluten free on the menu. Maybe this is related to the tightening of Australian rules into "gluten friendly" rather than gluten free. Since their specialty is hot sandwiches, I'm up in the air on the gluten front. If they will allow choosing from the sides and extras menu, that would be perfect. I also like how many of their prices have stayed reasonable, with five dollar coffees, I don't know if I can eat them but their egg sandwiches for Brekky look positively dreamy.

Can't eat it like a sandwich so ask for a fork :) Hubs had the Deli Rose and loved it. Ate every bit. Friendly service, lots of languages spoken here. Loved it Aussie 43.50

Their specialty is a loaf using potato in the sourdough mix. The bakery also sells full sized cakes, slices, foccacia, danishes and more.

Grab a cookie with the soft centre, apple turnover or a lemon curd and pistachio snail! Put it on your Katoomba visit list.

Mexican Mango Chilli Chai. My new favourite…read more This cafe was crowded when I popped in the other day for a tea fix. They also sell the locally produced Teas & Tisanes teas, who used to have their own emporium in Wentworth Falls. Walls covered in teas to buy and a cafe if you can't wait. While shopping for tea is a little tricky with waitresses unable to get past you, the tea itself is worth it. The abovementioned is a mix of black tea, cactus blossoms, amaranth, mango pieces, pomegranate blossoms and ground chilli pods. A little light on the chilli for me, but a swoon-worthy fragrant cup nonetheless.

We started with coffees, that were very cute, coming with tiny bear cookies. I had the avocado toast with eggs and the husband had the waffle with chocolate and ice cream and the works. My avocado toast was quite tasty. The cheese on top was delicious! The waffle was not nearly as good. It had sprinkles on top that made it very crunchy. Anyway, if you're looking for breakfast, this isn't a bad place, but maybe not the best place in the area to stop.

It wasn't coffee I sought but waffles, and they did well. Their strategy is to offer small but inexpensive items and charge for toppings, which worked out fine for me. I ordered a presumably healthy whole grain waffle, a tasty cinnamon one, and split my maple syrup and kiwi fruit between them. These were thick, cake-y waffles, quite satisfying. They also offered potatoes with a range of savory toppings, and I rather wished I'd gotten one of those after sampling it. They offered some nice shake flavors and ice cream as well. As a non-coffee drinker, I can't vouch for that, but as far as food goes, between the customization, value for money, and premium location, I was very happy, enough to round up the 4+ stars for the rating.
