#1Goodie Goodie Gum Drops for hot chips and a lolly stop
$Outdoor seating🌳 Kurrajong Memorial Park, 1 min walkGoodie Goodie Gum Drops is the place to order hot chips. The crumbed burger on a sesame bun comes with a pile of them, and one visitor found the portions big enough to share. Lollies sit in the same shop as the kitchen, so a bag of sweets can follow a plate of chips. Staff have cooked chips in oil kept for gluten-free food, which one coeliac diner called very rare. The cafe opens at 8:30am most days, and Kurrajong Memorial Park is a short walk away.
#2The Village Kitchen for a slow lunch with gnocchi
$$Outdoor seating🌳 Kurrajong Memorial Park, 2 min walkThe Village Kitchen serves gnocchi that regulars keep naming. Pair it with an espresso if you want coffee with a long meal. The outdoor deck sits among trees, and there is an indoor room with wooden walls if you would rather sit inside. A lime and pistachio cake is on the dessert list. A children's menu is available. Kurrajong Memorial Park lies close enough to reach before a takeaway cup cools.
#350three Cafe and Patisserie for pastries with a view
$$🐕 Dogs outsideOutdoor seating🌳 Kurrajong Memorial Park, 2 min walk50three Cafe & Patisserie starts with its croissants.
