We were warned that they don't have a lot of seating and that if it was full that the cafe next door was also good. We managed to grab a table outside which was great as we got to enjoy the beautiful weather. The barista who had sent us here had actually jumped in the car and got her family a table... which was funny, but a sign that the food must be good. The coffee's here were great. My Cappuccino ($4) was gone before the food came out.. and since it was the second for the morning I thought I'd not push onto the third. My friend had a Soy Chai Latte ($4.50). I ordered the Eggs Benedict ($18.50) but asked to have Bacon instead of Ham (a frequent and easy request). The Eggs Benny was very good (see photo). The Poached egg was cooked just right (the yolk was only slightly set and the majority was runny). I enjoyed my meal and remembered thinking the portions of bacon were slightly more than what I would have expected. They could either drop the amount of bacon down a bit or add in a third Egg... I would say third egg because that's how I roll. The missus had the Corn Fritters ($23), which were very good. I got a bite and they were crunchy on the outside yet light on the inside. One friend had The Smashed Avocado ($19), Add Tomato ($3), Add Bacon ($4.50) and the other had the Eggs & Bacon ($15.50), Add Relish ($2), Add Mushrooms ($4.50). Fresh OJ ($6.50) was recommended by a few people and whilst I didn't get to try any... it seemed to disappear quite quickly. After complaining that there weren't any good cafe's for breakfast/brunch in Launceston I can now highly recommend coming to Charles Street and stopping in here... will be back, great food!

Our fifth and last winery stop was at Josef Chromy Wines. It's a large commercialized winery with…read morean award winning restaurant in the back. We dropped in on a Monday (around 4:30pm). There were a few others around but most were finishing up with purchases. The view of the vineyards and lake (with a gazebo) is very picturesque. The restaurant seemed high end with prices to match. There's starters, mains, sides and desserts. There's also a four course "feed me" option ($75.00 AUD/person). Wine tastings are $5.00 AUD/person but fee is waived with a bottle purchase.

While the wines we tasted were all decent including Chardonnay, Pinot noir and Riesling, to my taste they weren't all that special. The tasting room itself is nice with an intimate feel and there's also a small deck outside looking down through the vineyard. Our tasting included 6 wines but the older gentleman serving us just wasn't very friendly despite our attempts to engage-maybe he was having a trying day, who knows. We are just so used to the interactive experience when talking to people about wine. This felt much more transactional and forced. In any case given the number of other wineries around, I'd probably skip this one.
