This cafe serves pretty good breakfast and lunch meals. The big breakfast is delicious and filling. The breakfast omelette is another amazing dish worth trying. The calamari rings and chips is also yummy especially the chips. Cooma is a common place to stop by when travelling down the coast or to Snowy Mountains and this one is worth stopping by.

Sure! Here’s a review you can use or adapt: I recently stopped by Tourist Cafe in Cooma for a quick takeaway and was pleasantly surprised. I ordered a cappuccino and a chai latte, and both drinks were excellent. The cappuccino was smooth, rich, and had a lovely balanced flavor without being too bitter. The chai latte was perfectly spiced and comforting, especially on a cold morning. The staff were welcoming and efficient, and the service was quick even though the cafe was quite busy. A great little spot to grab quality coffee when you’re passing through town. Highly recommend!

As we were walking the Main Street of Cooma, some locals suggested we go here for a good breakfast and they were right - it was great! The food was delicious, the portions were an excellent size and the prices very very reasonable. Would highly recommend coming here if you are looking for a quality feed.

Travelled from QLD, ate pretty average the whole way down until we arrived here. Dude, the pulled pork burger and chips was unreal. Best chips I've had since like, being a kid, and I'm a very picky with meat, but no issues here. Smashed that burger like a ravaged hound. 10/10. Plus very cute service. Keep up the excellent work guys.

Nice coffee. Bacon and egg roll was juicy. Would prefer the eggs to be more runny. Friendly service.

I went here for the first time today and had one of the best meals ever! The ham and pineapple melt is sooo good like it’s the most memorable melt I’ve had and will dream about it long after I’ve gone home to Brisbane! The chips are amazing the best I’ve had ever n years! So crunchy! I hope to come back very soon! Also the chocolate thick shake was wonderful!!!!!
