Cafe Graze on Derby Street in Walcha offers a straightforward, welcoming spot for locals and travelers looking to pause for quality coffee and a solid breakfast. Its unpretentious atmosphere, combined with a mix of indoor seating and a shaded outdoor deck, makes it comfortable whether you're catching some morning sun or sheltering from a crisp New England breeze.

The menu leans into classic breakfast fare, featuring hearty options like the bacon and egg roll with tomato relish or sauce and a generous steak sandwich, alongside lighter choices such as a fresh fruit platter or raisin cinnamon toast. The cafe is clearly tuned to morning routines, supporting those on-the-go with faster options like the bacon & egg roll, while also inviting guests to linger over a big breaky or smashed avocado plate paired with a reliably well-prepared coffee.

Local feedback highlights the attentiveness of the staff and the cafe's consistency with coffee quality, something that appeals to repeat visitors and regional travelers alike. It’s an approachable spot that balances a casual pace with efficient service, making it easy to drop in for a quick caffeine fix or a relaxed breakfast without feeling rushed.

The presence of a small gift section adds an unusual but appreciated local touch, extending its appeal beyond just food and drink. Dog owners will find the space accommodating, which adds to the community feel for those out for a morning walk or stopover on the road.

Overall, Cafe Graze suits those who value straightforward, well-executed food and coffee in a friendly, no-fuss setting. Early mornings and late breakfasts during weekdays or weekends are good times for a quieter experience, while the outdoor deck offers a nice way to soak in the town atmosphere on more pleasant days.

This little Cafe is the benchmark for regional areas. An absolute gem in The New England. Graze is a stopover that I now look forward to. The food is first class, the coffee always perfect and most importantly, the staff are an absolute delight! Worth a detour for!

Stopped here for breakfast on the way to Armidale. A very nice cafe with a friendly team, coffee was very good as was the bacon and egg roll. Well worth a visit if you are in the area.

A cute cafe with great food and friendly and accommodating staff. Our fellow customers were also gracious and kind. We both had unexpected/urgent phone calls and had to step away, but the staff and patrons handled it with ease and grace. Thank you!
