Was User at Eling Forest a mag?
I'm not usually a fan of fast food, but after passing by this place several times during my trip to Goulburn, I finally decided to stop for coffee and lunch. Both were excellent! I highly recommend this spot and will definitely go back. View all feedback.

What User dislikes about Eling Forest:
We recently visited a café that felt quite tired and lacking in ambiance, although the staff was friendly. The food, however, was disappointing. I ordered the black bellenburger, but the meat was overcooked and dry. My wife tried a dish from the specials board that had an odd taste.

Very much enjoy stopping here for breakfast/brunch on our way from Sydney to Canberra. The cakes are beyond delicious with cream on the side. Coffee is always on point. The poached eggs were yummy today but would have been even better with a second piece of toast and looked more presentable with a little green garnish. Way more pleasant experience than stopping at the fast food servos a bit further down the road. Service: Dine in

Such a beautiful place and very friendly staff. Delicious banana bread but sadly I can’t say the same about coffee. One of the worst we’ve ever had. Very bitter. I wished we tried it on the spot. It seems like a new staff made it so it might be the reason. We will stop there next time if we have time to check out the coffee. Everyone deserves another chance, especially friendly people : Bit pricey for what we ordered. Meal type: Other
