Katoomba is my go-to escape when I need a break from the city buzz, and Tempus has been on my breakfast list for ages. Luckily, my weekday trip aligned with the stars and I finally snagged a seat.
The vibe is exactly what you want at a mountain café: lively, warm, and humming with locals and travellers easing into their day. The staff are friendly and genuinely attentive, and the interiors strike that perfect balance between simple and inviting. The coffee is solid — nothing groundbreaking by Aussie standards, but it hits the spot.
The standout? Tempus Hash brown. That salmon and horseradish cream combo is exactly the punchy, satisfying start my morning deserves. Highly recommend when you’re in this side of Sydney.
