Paragon

A wonderful place, I really enjoyed the scones with jam and cream. The coffee is good. Friendly people.

Beautiful historic decor and friendly service.

Iconic Blue Mountains establishment. Excellent coffee, tea and food options plus a range of their own confectionery. Essential stop for anyone visiting the area!

Sorry to say it's permanently closed.. fortunately though, some interested parties have banded together to save the building, however, there is a lot in of damage due to poor drainage and Heritage and engineers are in the throes of dealing with the damage with a view to getting the Cafe up and running again in it's former glory!! Just Looking at the border that window as and decided yet the front is enough to bring back some really happy memories. Here's hoping for a reopening soon!!

I love love love this café 😍 Very close to Katoomba train station only a short 5-minute walk! Amazing customer service, the lady was so friendly! So attentive & helpful, as she knew I was on holidays from Sydney! She recommended different places to go and try! As I told her I was on holidays for food exploring 😍 nom nom is what I am good at 😂 This was the first stop, and I was so happy! The interior of the café was gorgeous and classy, it had a very classy historic feel to it! I ordered a strong soy latte, and it was delicious, strong and creamy! Just the way I like it! ☕️ I also ordered a cheese and ham toastie, super cheesy and crispy! All I can say is Yum!! It’s a nice simple and delicious breakfast! Loved it!! Casual quiet ambience, very clean as well & cosy! I would totally rock up to this place again one day !!! Oh, OMG the chocolate on display looked amazing!!! Next time I will grab a box to take home!! This café is highly recommended!! Friendly and attentive staff and the food was amazing!!! Are you searching for delicious coffee in the mountain!? Try this cafe ASAP 🥰 I spent $13.00 in total.

Don't miss out on this beautiful chocolate you won't be disappointed.

If you love chocolates then Paragon is a must visit when in Katoomba. It has a great variety of chocolate selections.

Delicious beef and onion pie. My wife had a delicious lamb wrap, and both came with salad. Delicious hot chocolate. We came there as it’s the Oldest cafe in Australia. Nice staff. Shame it will close soon apparently.

The Paragon has moved from it's Original Building to a new one. The Paragon is now next door to the Avalon (across the road and up over the hill, from where it Originally was), and two doors towards the Railway Line (to the North) of the Savoy Restaurant. Food was great, hot chocolate drink that I had was great too. Staff was friendly and helpful. Lovely lady that we spoke to was the Staff. This lady explained to us that she moved The Paragon into a smaller building and didn't renew the old building. I have to admit, after having been to both buildings, this new smaller one has more atmospheric feeling to it. Thanks for your hospitality and kindness. I'll be back there sometime in the future. 😀

Absolutely beautiful and magnificent place. Historic in every way. Sadly that will be closing soon due to the complicated tenancy and historic preservation laws here. What's more, they hand make the absolutely best chocolate and I'm told export it as far away as London. The chocolate is exquisite! The food here is also very nice. This place has over a 100 years of history. Apparently, many service men stopped here back during WWlI before shipping of to fight. They used to be one of the finest dining spot's in the area with many folks from Sydney coming here for their holiday dinner. They had a banquet hall and a dance room! It's a truly remarkable place and it's sad to see it closing.
