Cafe Madeleine - Leura

I would love to give 5 points because the hot chocolate was absolutely delicious but the organization was absolutely disappointing. It looks like that the restaurant hasn't got a manager all the staff were in the background and seemed totally dazzled.

I came here with four other Sydney friends on Saturday after a long day hours of site seeing and walking in the Blue Mountains. By 3.30pm we were really ready for a coffee and sugar fix. The sweets are simply delicious! I settled for a...Belgian chocolate ice cream sundae, other friend's went for more traditional scones with the double cream and jam and we ordered coffees, one ordering a big coffee bowl. All in all a very pleasant way to recharge our batteries before tackling the Leura boutiques and heading back to Sydney later that afternoon.

The food was delicious. While we were okay with the slow service, the waitress's lack of attentiveness was disappointing. It would have been acceptable if she had at least acknowledged that she was busy with something else.

We ventured into Cafe Madeleine for coffee and a morning tea bite and were very impressed. Prompt service and food, lovely coffee and the best muffins ever - seriously! I took the opportunity of checking out what others were ordering and I saw many plates of lovely brunch - great serving sizes and lovely looking food! This looked like the place that the locals go.

After walking up and down the main streets of Leura trying to find a place for a quick lunch, I settled for CM.
