Café Chat is our new feature that we will be running once a month, featuring all the wonderful unique and eclectic cafés in and around Canowindra. You may be sick of going to the same place and just want to try somewhere new. There is an abundance of charming Cafes around Canowindra that offer different menu’s and services that you may not have even experienced yet!

The Canowindra locals usually travel to Orange once a week to do some shopping, visit medical practitioners visit friends and family. There is an array of unique cafes that offer peace and tranquillity as well as fresh new cafes that offer WiFi access and some upbeat music, even one with a recording studio. Whether you are seeking a quiet asylum by yourself or wanting to take your friends out for coffee, or simply want to get the kids out of the house and shout them a milkshake – there are plenty of choices!

Café Latte – Café Latte is a cosy contemporary café located in Orange’s CBD at 173 Summer Street, Orange Central West NSW. It is the first Café you drive past on the left in the main street of Orange. A 70 seat restaurant, Café Latte provides quality food and beverages to local businesses, Orange residents and the ever increasing tourist market. Just over 5 years ago, Aaron & Emma purchased Café Latte and offer an assortment of restaurant quality food, coffee and friendly customer service. Café Latte has 2 qualified chefs and an apprentice that work their magic in the kitchen to provide delicious meals that are restaurant quality at reasonable prices. The menu consists of food to suit all taste buds including pastas, risottos and their famous Barramundi which makes Café Latte quite unique. Aaron works in the café full time and prides himself on making everyone welcome and relaxed. Emma works tirelessly behind the scenes, managing all aspects of the business, which with 13 staff is extremely time consuming.

Set in the quiet street of East Orange, Simply Nile is a perfect all weather dining experience with both inside and outside courtyards available. Simply Nile is an alfresco dining experience set in the peaceful surrounds of East Orange providing an imaginative menu with delicious homemade food and local coffee. Being slightly away from the Orange CBD, there is plenty of accessible parking, disabled access and option for well-behaved four legged friends, we can cater to almost any need. The café is also available for small private functions or celebrations and regularly takes bookings.  Simply Nile aims to serve quality, delicious homemade food with a focus on fresh local produce with friendly, efficient service to match. One customer stated “My partner and I went for lunch and were amazed at the quality of the food. It tasted amazing and the staff were lovely. We sat outside which is done up beautifully. We really enjoyed ourselves”.
