"We came through on boxing day. They were busy, but all the staff were super friendly. The fish and chips were lovely, chips were super crispy. I had the soup of the day - potato and leek, and it was delicious and flavourful. My hubby had the breaklie bowl and it was very tasty. They had lap blankets for the cold and dogs were allowed on the deck. This is an excellent spot to stop on the way from Sydney to Canberra."

"We stopped in on the spur of the moment and were SO glad we did. The food was delicious. The best hot chips I’ve had in a looooong time and the cheese and fruit platter for one was absolute value for money, the fruit was perfect and the cheese was sensational. A perfect afternoon snack! To add to the experience, the hosts were lovely to chat to and have a laugh with, but still gave us space for our own conversation. They are absolutely the right people to be working in hospitality! Well done Berrima Cafe, don’t change a thing!"

"We stopped for a quick brunch on 4th January. The owner was incredibly nice. Food was very tasty. We ordered 3 dishes and few drinks. They served everything very quickly. I recommend this cafe to other people."

"thank you for taking the time to look after us on Christmas Day. Very kind staff, and such a warm welcoming atmosphere. Would love to come back and give brunch a go. To mention- we did choose to have no prawns. And took dessert to go so did miss out on cheese, coffee and tea. Nice idea if you’re Christmas is looking a little quiet, lonely or you just can’t be bothered to cook!"

"I came down to Berrima on Australia Day and asked the 2 ladies sitting outside if it was too late for a coffee. They said no we can do that. I changed it to a milkshake because they had really finished for the day and it was easier..l enjoyed a cooked breakfast there the following 2 mornings. Lovely genuine people and so friendly. I know where I'll be stopping for brekkie, lunch next time lm heading that way"

"Amazingly friendly staff. Music and atmosphere was relaxing and very enjoyable. Great iced coffees and the service for our kelpie pups was second to none. They were supplied with water and doggie cookies. Mick (the owner) was super friendly and attentive. 10/10. Will definitely be back again!"

"Me and my friends went on a rainy Sunday afternoon. Some in our group wanted Pizza and left. But for those who stayed back, were rewarded. We ordered Risotto, Judith’s delight, Buddah Bowl, Chips and Steak Sandwich. All were excellent and we loved the food. The ambience was very good. There were some real treasures on the wall as well. Later we cut cake for our friend’s anniversary and the restaurant person gave us spoons and tissues as well. A nice place. Strongly recommend."

A huge thank you to the chef for such a high-quality meal and to the wait staff for their attentive and friendly service. It made the visit to Berrima truly memorable. Highly recommended!"
