There is a seating area right next to this play area which is the perfect spot to sit you have toddlers who you need to keep a close eye on (you do have to go down a couple of steps to this seating area). At lunch time the menu does start to verge in the expensive side for a cafe, but then you do have to remember the setting you are in! You can have everything from soup of the day for $10.00 to Moroccan Spiced Lamb Cutlets on a sweet potato rosti with broccolini & sweet tomato chutney for $30.00. When I go back I will definitely be trying out the Salt & Chilli Squid with a rocket, apple, orange & pistachio salad (e $12.50/m $18.50). And something I haven't mentioned yet, is that they offer full table service at the Fig Coffee House, so you don't have to leave your kids whilst you go inside and order.

I went this weekend on a Saturday about 9 and there was a wait for tables so they are obviously doing something right! I went off for some shopping and returned for a later brekkie rather than stand there watching customers have each bite and wondering how long they'd be before their table was available. The crowd had moved on and I ordered the Avo with a poached egg. It's a fave, as I said! But I felt decidedly uncomfortable when the 'spare' chair at the table for two was whisked away for another table. The crowd had diminished and other larger tables were empty, so there were other 'spare chair' options. On my way out I mentioned it and staff were apologetic... so I hope it won't be the experience for other solo diners.

It's a pity that when you are in a place surrounded by beautiful gardens and the perfume of roses…read morein the air that a cafe can't do the surrounds justice. Cafe Botanica is more over grown weed than manicured garden. It needs a prune both to the structure and to the menu. The interior is reminiscent of a drab school canteen and unfortunately the menu is bland and boring (please inject a bit more excitement into it or lower prices). Paying $11 for a basic sandwich, although fresh, is far too much. Other meals go well up to $18. The cafe is situated in the grounds of Swane's Nursery (which has exquisite lawns and rows and rows of roses). There are shady trees as well as a couple of gazebos spread around the front so my tip is that you are better off packing a picnic, coming up and admiring the roses and checking out the nursery if you are travelling up to Dural for the day.

The location when in a nursery should be ideal but it's location is on the access road so not a…read moreideal as it could be but still ok. We thought we'd try a late breakfast so we placed the order at the counter as there was no table service. The food took so long to come out even though it wasn't busy and when the food arrived it was good honest food but not a gourmet meal. They have there own coffee roaster onsite which should mean good coffee but the first cup came without much flavour but reasonable milk and when we ordered a second cup it was way too HOT not great experience.

Ok, I am really sorry to everyone who recommended this place to me. All those who live in the area…read moreare willing to offer their left arms for this place. However, for me this place wasn't that special - in a nut shell, it is expensive and you really don't get what you pay for. Every dish has to have some 'exotic' ingredient to justify the price, but I'm sorry, still not worth it. Don't misunderstand me, the food is good if you are willing to pay for it. But I think the most disappointing thing was the coffee, it was weak and quite average. And I came here in the morning, which is my spiritual coffee time! And instead of reaching self-enlightenment with my cup of coffee, I just got woken up. Specifically, as after eating here, I made sure that I drove past the Baron to get a real cup of coffee. I know that I am being harsh, but when you are paying $30+ for a breakfast and coffee I except a bit more. And sadly I don't think I got it.

Weather was predicted to dump all day but just as we approached Dural.... BAM!! Hello rain. But once we made it to the cafe, the cute outdoor seating was drenched. However inside was super cozy and the perfect place to hit out with a coffee. The kitchen was closed when we made it but a second wind for a second lunch totally could have happened. The burger sounded aahhhmazang!! The treat skim piccolo and a cheeky brownie totally hit the spot and the day was a success! The coffee was soooo good! I'm no coffee connoisseur but that cup was so smooth with some surprising character to compliment. (I'll get better with my coffee descriptions lol) They were using 5 senses beans and I'm always a fan of them I'm coming back for that burger!!

This is a gem of a coffee place!…read more Having to mission up to Hornsby for a training day was SAVED by this place - tucked in to the train station this place caught our eye and then won our heart. Friendly and relaxed staff pump out coffees to the commuters and then keep the coffee flowing throughout the day. The service was fast and the coffee was delicious - they didn't bat an eye at strange orders such as quarter strength skim lattes and made a great soy fw. There were a few treats to try including the in vogue cruffin which was a sweet treat to help us through our afternoon. Well worth dropping in to grab a takeaway if you are traveling through the Hornsby train station.

"Shop" is a stretch - it's really more of a hole in the wall takeaway only kind of space, lovingly kitted out in tiles, timber, blackboards and big Edison bulbs. The sort of aesthetic that gives you hope. It doesn't disappoint. They make a damn fine coffee here, with good customer service to boot. None of that awful aloofness that typifies so many hipster-esque joints. They sell beautiful muffins and even Bircher muesli, but they do sell out. Hey, it's not like there's space for much stock, and coffee is certainly the priority. Will certainly go out of my way to get a coffee here in future, whenever I'm around Hornsby.
