Chapter One Eatery

Absolutely delightful staff who are always so welcoming and professional. The food is beautiful and the coffee is excellent. The cafe is always immaculate and peaceful, and is a favourite with the locals. This is the best cafe in the Highlands by a mile, and we continue to return time and time again. Highly recommend the mushroom soup and BLAT!

My friend and I recently stopped by this charming coffee shop on our way to Canberra and we were truly impressed by the exceptional quality of both the food and coffee. I ordered the scrambled eggs with crab meat, which were delightfully creamy, paired perfectly with a crispy croissant and delicious sauce. The coffee here is also good. Additionally, the staff were friendly and welcoming. We recommend this place to both locals and friends.

Our go to place for Breakfast and/or Lunch whenever we go to or through Mittagong. The staff are extremely friendly and courteous - the food and coffee are excellent and the ambience is nice. Would thoroughly recommend it to anyone

Overall perfect cafe experience. The food was delicious and generous. We came back twice during our stay in the next town. It’s always a pleasure to encourage small businesses that truly make an effort to give their customers a good experience. The staff is very friendly, the place is cozy and clean. Thank you to all the staff for this beautiful little gem.

I've been unable to find a good cafe in Mittagong due to the significant impact that Covid has had on the area. However, I recently discovered a high-quality cafe that I had been missing out on. I was impressed to find out that they serve Pablo and Rusty's coffee, which was definitely a thumbs up in my book. Staff are sooooo kind and nice 👍

Yummy chicken salad and good coffee . Friendly staff.

Located in the heart of Mittagong, this cafe has a lot to offer. It's a relaxed, casual and welcoming space with delicious menu items. Everything we ordered was tasty and flavoursome. Staff are super friendly!

Min and the crew here are next level
The Japanese Pumpkin soup is a signature dish and at $15 its amazing. Freshly made carrot cake was also a delight. The staff here are all here to serve and it stands out in spades. You must swing in here as the coffee was also amazing and creamy
If they had 6 stars i would have given a six star review

This meek and mild country cafe has extraordinary culinary delights! The fusion of Thai Australian in some of the dishes is nothing short of mind blowing. Go there! Coffee really good. Staff genuine relational and quite frankly. Smart. Love it

I had breakfast here with two friends and we shared the Scrabble Egg and The Benedict. The portions were perfect for the three of us, and every bite was delicious – the mint sauce went surpisingly well with the crab! The chai, which two of us ordered (one each) for ourselves, was also lovely and generously sized. On top of this, the service was excellent.

P.S. This visit actually happened a couple of months ago but I didn't get around to writing a review until now. I'll be sure to come back the next time I visit Mittagong!

What a great find when stopping for lunch on our way to the Snowy Mountains. Service was lovely, the Cafe space was pretty and very clean, the coffee excellent and the food was delicious! Also really creative which I loved. I had the Scrabble Eggs which was A+... will be back!

It was one of the very few places open in Mittagong over the long weekend public holiday. Brilliant friendly staff. Great coffee and a very delicious tomato and cheese croissant with a nice thick slice of cheese. 5 stars and absolutely recommended!!

Had breakfast there this morning for the first time, and will definitely return!
Great to see that you can have bread other than sourfough 😉
Eggs Benedict is a MUST!
Great coffee too and the staff were brilliant 👏 👌

Was stuck in town for a week, but had the pleasure of visiting this place most mornings. Friendly and welcoming staff, beautiful coffee and delicious food. If you are local consider yourself lucky to have this place. Thanks guys

Had the best scrambled eggs. Nicest staff, so I've found my new place for food. Totally recommend .

The best food I’ve ever had and good service I love it ❤

This cafe has become our favourite.
Service is quick, the food is delicious and fresh and the ladies are friendly, efficient and helpful when we bring the grandkids.

I was excited to try chapter one eatery after seeing their photos. The food was beautiful Great coffee and variety Really friendly service

Really good quality food.
The soup’s nourishing and hot enough for a cold winter day. Highly recommend.

Portuguese Tarts!!!! I have only been there twice and only purchased the Portuguese Tart - YUM! - and a shortbread, however will be back. The staff are so friendly and the service is excellent…..and the Portuguese Tarts are amazing….and HUGE!
