The Vintage Pantry is an unassuming, yet popular, brunch café in Pitt Town, Northwest of Sydney…read more Not knowing what to expect, the place is very tastefully put together with an odd assortment of wooden furniture in a uniform, whitewash finish. The walls are plaster, with a beautifully textured brick wall on one side, and a selection of interesting, curated items adorn the space throughout. Of particular note is a major feature piece, a comfortable looking reupholstered vintage lounge. With pencils and colouring books for the kids, the café is spacious both inside and out, and there are plenty of aspects to find your favourite seat. Service was great, with staff proactive, friendly and always available when required. The coffee is a solid performer that one might expect to be consistent, without owning the show. Given the time of day, we both elected for burgers. The Ultimate (beef) burger was juicy and delicious, with a tasty combo of ingredients and sauces. The Kafta (lamb) burger also reported well, and no beer battered chips were left over. Whilst a bit far off the beaten track to be a destination, if you're passing through Pitt Town, I definitely recommend stopping in for a coffee and a bite.

We had a larger table with other family along as well, and the service was superb, the coffee and food both exceptional, and the whole experience was fantastic. Highly recommend.

The menu is far too big and clearly geared to hearty country folk who like a plateful of fried stuff. I liked the sound of a toasted sandwich and ordered a southern something that was slow cooked brisket and bell peppers. At $16 I was expecting a good meal, but sadly I got the micro sandwich that appears in the picture. My fellow diners wrap looked a far better proposition and luckily she shared with me or I would have been hungry after my expensive toastie. The flavours were good.

It's incredible to me but the Macquarie Arms Hotel in Windsor is thought to be the oldest inn and…read more"the oldest pub" on mainland Australia. (Tasmania likes to sneaks in now and then when we aren't looking. Not sure if you can trust the Tassies though. I heard the place started as a penal colony. lol). Being the oldest pub is surely a great honour in Australia, in a land where beer is damn near sacred. Talk about hiding in plain sight up there on the hill in Thompson's Square (see separate review). I wonder if the patrons went from Australia's oldest school & church at nearby Ebenezer down here to the oldest pub. The Arms' website (http://www.macquariearms.com.au/history/) states: "In 1815 a "spacious and commodious inn" was constructed by Richard Fitzgerald adjoining Thompson Square and was known as the Macquarie Arms. In order to save Government the cost of providing such a structure, Macquarie had given "Mr. Fitzgerald a large allotment in the square on the expressed condition of his building immediately thereon a handsome commodious inn of brick or stone and to be at least two stories high." ( Macquarie's Journal of his tours- 12th Jan. 1811) The soldiers would sometimes stay on the upper floor. After a hard day's work, the convicts who built the Macquarie Arms entertained themselves by smuggling barrels of illegal rum from the Hawkesbury River into the quarters below through the "Rum Smuggler's Tunnels". Two convict brothers blew themselves up in the cellar. A young girl Mary died upstairs after being trapped by a fire. Windsor Ghost Tours says their ghosts remain and will take you on a tour on Saturday nights. That would be fun. The Heritage Council of NSW describes the Arms as follows: "Physical Description: The hotel is a building of generous proportions, with sandstock brick walls, stuccoed over and painted white. It has two large Georgian doorways with semi-circular traceried fanlights and sidelights, but the glass in the one facing George Street has unfortunately been painted over. The one opening onto Thompson Square can still be seen in its original state. The hotel retains its well designed cedar joinery, its cedar circular staircase, its extensive stone flagged cellars, its turned wooden verandah columns, and its stone flagging." I'll give it four stars for not giving up the ghost. A portrait of Governor Macquarie hands in the Dining Room as would be expected. The Arms boasts "Beautiful Pub Food from $6.50 pastas to $9.95 steak and beer deals (see our weekly specials in house). Keno, TAB, Pokies and three pool tables and two dart boards. HOURS: Monday/Tuesday/Sunday 10am to 10pm. Wednesday to Saturday 10am to 12am." I never thought of pub food as beautiful, but maybe it's in the eye of the beholder. Average or adequate would be a better description, but the wait can be painful. Maybe they're resting on their laurels, but pretty good laurels they are generally. Good for a drink for history's sake, but I wouldn't base a family meal here if you know what I mean. But when visiting a pub I'm not going to get picky about the food. They have steaks, battered fish & chips, schnitzel, burgers, pasta, salads and more. $10 for 10 items on Monday, and other specials, sometimes beef ribs. A horseshoe on the outside wall of the Macquarie Arms pub marks the level a huge flood peaked at in 1867, when beaches along the Hawkesbury to Barrenjoey were littered with the debris from the town.

This pub certainly doesn't feel like a local pub, namely because it tries to capture the semi-rural…read moreatmosphere of Windsor. It feels a lot like one of those pubs that appeals to the daytripper up here, particularly with the architecture, and of course of lovely beer garden down near the river. It is a nice pub, and it certainly has a lot of atmosphere about it, and in fact, feels that it is the original pub from up this way. The other thing that stands out is that it does have a nice selection of beers as well though the service, well, it wasn't the best, but it was still good.
