Description

Tucked in Katoomba, this no-fuss burger spot serves generous, freshly made patties — from standout mushroom and veggie creations to crispy southern fried and brisket beef — paired with golden chips, onion rings and loaded sides. Friendly, efficient staff and reasonable prices make it ideal for hikers, families and quick lunches. Cozy indoor seating and takeaway are available, though it gets busy and the restroom could use attention. A satisfying, homestyle find for hearty burgers and ample vegetarian options.

I stopped by for a quick lunch and was pleased with the service—very polite, courteous, and friendly. I ordered the "burger with the lot" and some southern fried chicken tenders, both of which were excellent. The chicken was fantastic, and the burger was a simple yet delicious option. It’s refreshing to find a place that focuses on serving good, freshly made food without trying to be overly fancy. I would give it 4.5 stars if I could, but the system only allows whole numbers. Overall, it’s definitely worth a visit for a meal.

I had a fantastic burger and onion rings! I ordered the Southern Chicken Burger, and it was fresh and delicious.

We were really pleased to discover this restaurant, especially since the pubs were packed! The kids were super hungry and only wanted nuggets and chips. My husband and I ordered chicken burgers, which we really enjoyed. The portion sizes were generous and reasonably priced, particularly for Katoomba, which can be expensive. The service was quick and friendly. The dining area was clean, though the restroom could use some attention.

We went to a bunch of places as a last minute thing but couldn't get anywhere without a booking. Cattlefish was busy but efficient. We waited maybe 10 mins after ordering for takeaway, but ended up grabbing a table. We had 3 different beef burgers and the brisket beef patty was amazing, juicy, perfectly cooked and full of flavour. It was complemented by various fillings and sauces. The chips were thick, golden and crispy. Overall the food was delicious and if you are after a no fuss yummy burger and chips as well as excellent service this is the place to go.

We ordered 2 x Mega Burgers and a beef burger and i have to say they are the best burgers i have ever had, even better than Grilled. They were beautifully assembled, cooked nicely and not dripping with fat. They were also absolutely delicious. They were so good I'm going back for another one tomorrow night. Chips are also very good not the best I've had but I will give them an 8 out of 10 so better than most. Prices are also very reasonable. So if you in Katoomba and looking for a great food, give Cattlefish a go, you will not be disappointed. Yum
