Us Canberran’s appreciate an abundance of fantastic, creative and humbly terrific cafés like we do a long weekend. Nothing beats a nourishing brekkie and hot coffee, particularly when fuelling up for a big day exploring, skiing and partying on the Snowy Mountains.  

Check out our favourite places to squash those caffeine cravings and get the ball well and truly rolling for the day.  

Seasn Café 

Opening in Jindabyne late last year, Seasn Café is the rustic street café you’ll find yourself stopping by for nourishing meals and speciality roasted ONA Coffee. Here for you from season-to-season, for breakfast and lunch, the menu perfectly embodies the spirit of Jindabyne, through delicious seasn-al local produce. So, whether you’re on your way to the snow and need a quick bite to fuel up or if you have time for a full breakfast overlooking the picturesque Lake Jindabyne, their wholesome no-fuss food and country hospitality won’t disappoint. 

Open 7 days, 6:30am-3:30pm.

Birchwood Café 

Ensuring no one walks away hungry, Birchwood Café is Jindabyne’s deliciously good foodie hub. With flavour-packed, vibrant and seasonal dishes, head in with all your cravings and leave feeling absolutely satisfied and ready for an action-packed day in the region. Alongside their menu, make sure you order a cup of speciality coffee by Single O and check out the cracking specials board. 

Open 7 days, 7am-2pm. 

 

Central road 2625

If you got caught up in the morning rush to secure your carpark and that fresh powder at Thredbo, Central Road 2625 has got your back (and belly). Conveniently located in Village Square in Thredbo Village, not only is the coffee blended to perfection, but as are the flavour fusions of Southeast Asian and Australian cuisines. Take your pick from favourites like the breaky burrito or pork belly bahn mi roll and warm up in the rustic and charming little café in between runs.  

Open Wed-Sun, 8am-2pm. 

The Lott Café 

On the way to or from the snow, or if you feel like getting out to explore the region, take a trip down to Cooma and pop into The Lott Café. With a coffee menu for even the snobbiest of connoisseurs and a hearty brekkie and lunch selection, you’ll leave satisfied and roaring and ready for the day. Take a seat by the open fire place and watch as the snow falls over the street, a passerby might mistake you for the main character in one of those corny white Christmas movies. Make sure to try out the Killerbee blend and Origins by Single O coffee, before grabbing a house-made sweet treat on the way out. 

Open 7 days, 7am-2pm.

So you’ve broken your fast and you’re all coffee-d up and ready to go. Need some inspiration on where to go next? Check out our Eat Drink Play Alpine section to keep the good vibes going strong.
