Inside we were greeted by a very lovely women, whom we believe was the owner. A super menu which listed things that contained eggs and bacon and eggs with bacon. My wife went with a bacon and egg roll and I took the owners suggestion of Spanish Eggs. The atmosphere was really chilled and stress free. The food came out hot and fast. Not that it mattered as we were happily chatting away with the assumed owner. The bacon and egg roll was enjoyable and the Spanish Eggs were something truly amazing. Two baked eggs atop of what I can only describe as chilly con carne but with chorizo sausage instead of mince or diced steak. Slices of white roll for dunking, this dish warmed me up from the inside out. Spice and quite heavy for breakfast, but none the less amazing. The best example of country hospitality.

A trendy little cafe offering exceptional coffee and a lovely menu (dare I be so arrogant to say "Sydney Style"? Ooops, there I go again!). The owner used to own a cafe in Surry Hills and he has taken his passion for coffee and a simple but delish menu to the beautiful Blue Mountains. Good on him. THere are not many cafes in Blackheath and none that can deliver the tastebud experience this place can (not that I have discovered anyway). They're open for breakfast and lunch. It is very small though so you're not guaranteed a seat. It is defnitely your best option in Blackheath. The coffee was so good I have a double expresso x 2. What a buzz. L

Fluffy, perfectly golden crusty pies had us salivating as we peered through the glass displays. Amongst these delightful pillows of goodness there are cakes, pastries, family sized pies, sausage rolls, quiches... The aroma had me floating off the floorboards. My choice was the chicken, leek & mushroom... Lightly creamy, chunky chicken breast bits & smooth flavour of the leek was absolutely scrumptious. I also got to taste the Steak & Gravy which was the quintessential gourmet meat pie.. Didn't even need tomato sauce. But if u wanted it's self serve sauces here so u can squeeze to your delight! A great pit stop with outdoor verandah seating & super friendly staff who go out of their way to make your pie eating experience possibly one of the best ever.

There's a chandelier or two and some highbacked woven wicker-type chairs that are surprisingly comfortable. There's local art on the walls for sale, and genuinely friendly service. Which can not be said for another cafe not far from it. But that's another review... Amazingly, Govett's has a number of gluten free options on the menu of their home-style food, sandwiches and melts, cakes and bikkies, and the coffee's good too. Especially early on a Sunday morning. But, I guess any coffee would be at that point. Still, my hanging out with a friend cafe pick for a morning in the (usually) foggy upper mountains. It may not look as cool as some, but it has heart. And a good coffee, no matter the time.

We were seeking coffee and breakfast before embarking on our (mini) rainforest expedition. I got an espresso with condensed milk (forgot its name...) and a ham and cheese croissant. The croissant is ok, I suppose you can't really go wrong with ham and cheese. The coffee was really strong, and the bitterness lingered even after I mix it with the condensed milk. It wasn't bad, just perhaps a tad strong for my tastes. This is a small shop with a charming atmosphere, and I am also letting the quality stuff slide a bit because it is pretty far outside a major city. It is a decent place to stop by because you are surrounded by tourist traps anyway.

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.

No ham and cheese sammies here - I had wrap that included Indian-inspired flavors and my husband really enjoyed his corned beef with an awesome chutney. My only "complaint" would be how messy my wrap was - but that was partly due to how much was packed in to it, which isn't the worst problem to have. We love traveling outside of the cities we visit - it gets us more among the locals and allows us to find places like this.

But I figured it would be a typical small-town cafe, with ordinary fare. I just wanted anything after my exertions. The menu looked ordinary: fish and chips, steak sandwich, beef pie, sandwiches, the usual. But the food was uniformly excellent. I had fish and chips, but the flathead fillets were moist, delicious, and perfectly-battered, not greasy. The chips were obviously made there, and fried just right despite their chunky size. The side salad escaped the default lettuce-and-tomato-and-cucumber throwaway by including sun-dried tomatoes and just a spoonful of wonderfully creamy dressing. With a little pot of garlic aioli to season every bite, I was in heaven. My wife had the steak sandwich and said it was the best she could ever recall having. The meat was thin but still juicy, the onions plentiful and caramelised deep into toffee-territory. Her mint tea was made with fresh herbs, too. For dessert, we each had a chocolate brownie with nuts. It was well-presented on the plate, but a bit cold, just out of the dessert case. They were only to happy to heat them up when we asked, though, and they were delicious. To outward appearances the Wattle Cafe looks like any other cafe, but we found the food quality to be uniformly excellent. It's a super Blue Mountains stop after a hike.
