Experience the vintage groove of Katoomba at the Soul Side of Town Café!

**Discover the vintage groove of Katoomba at On the Soul Side Café!

Hidden within the historic Gearin Hotel, just a leisurely wander from the heritage-listed Carrington Hotel and a five-minute drive to the Three Sisters lookout at Echo Point, this cosy coffee haven is your must-visit launch-pad for every Blue Mountains adventure. ([onthesoulside.com][1])

Five reasons travellers flock

  1. Locally roasted coffee & treats – sip a flat white before tackling the Prince Henry Cliff Walk, then refuel with house-baked cakes for the trek to Scenic World.

  2. Live music every week – from the crowd-powered Argentis Live Jukebox Sundays (pick any of 200+ songs!) ([rbm.org.au][2]) to the ethereal folk of Luna Wolf (next set: 23 March 2025, 12-2 pm) ([allevents.in][3]), there's always a soundtrack to your latte.

  3. Evening soul sessions – share a local wine platter while mellow jazz floats through the timber rafters during Soul Evening Fridays. ([onthesoulside.com][4])

  4. Trailhead convenience – grab a takeaway brew before sunrise at Echo Point, or park easily beside Katoomba Station when you roll back from a day at Jenolan Caves.

  5. Creative community vibe – owner-curator David Griffiths keeps the stage open; it's the venue Sydney musos beg to guest-spot when touring the Mountains. ([facebook.com][5])

Hidden inside the historic Gearin Hotel, On the Soul Side Café is the Blue Mountains' sanctuary for award-winning espresso, 🎶 live music, and friendly vibes.

Just a short stroll from the grand Carrington Hotel, and minutes by car from the jaw-dropping Three Sisters, the café makes the ideal launch-pad for travellers hitting Echo Point, Scenic World, or the misty walking tracks that criss-cross the Blue Mountains National Park.

Each week, catch up-close live acts like local jazz trios, or surprise guest sets from touring Sydney bands. Match the groove with a silky flat white, a decadent brownie, or a platter of regional cheeses-and when the sun dips, switch to the new Soul Evening: boutique wines, shared plates, and sunset soul.

Mapping your day? Start at sunrise with a takeaway brew, capture the first light on the Three Sisters, loop past the Carrington's Queen Victoria grandeur, then unwind here for brunch. As locals say, it's the “best great coffee for 1,000 miles.”
