I took my parents and grandparents here for an early Mother’s day lunch and it was absolutely amazing! The staff were so friendly and helpful even though they were quite busy at the time. The owner is a lovely women and apparently makes EVERYTHING herself (including the sweet, and savoury bakery items)which i found incredibly impressive. I highly recommend stopping by and giving this place a go. I’ll definitely be coming back

Great to see my Nanas sculpture of Ben Hall is still being displayed and cared for, everyone was super friendly. Has a great little play area in the cafe for the kids.

A lovely spot run by very friendly staff. Its surprisingly bigger than expected. Can't wait to visit in winter as they have a huge fireplace and comfy couches. Would be an ideal venue for Youth groups and/or Seniors clubs to gather. Wednesday mornings there's a Pensioners Special. Pop in to see the tasty treats on offer. This darling café is situated in the Forbes Visitors Information Centre.
