The most extraordinary element of our visit today was the service provided by Darren and the young staffmembers. I felt undecided when ordering and changed my mind a couple of times. They were unfazed by this, and actually made me feel comfortable. We had a wrap each - breakfast for me and chilli chicken for him. They were warmed up, and really hit the spot! My long black was great! Toby's Estate is so consistently high quality. This cafe has a drive through! And it's quite popular!

We absolutely adore The Wistow Cafe and have become regulars for all the right reasons! The coffee and food are consistently delicious, with every dish and drink made with care. Our son loves the small kids’ corner, complete with a movie, table, pencils, and paper for drawing and coloring—it’s a lifesaver for keeping him entertained. The atmosphere feels like home; the staff are warm and attentive, remembering our preferences down to the smallest details, which makes every visit special. The environment is quiet and cozy, perfect for relaxing or catching up with friends. We highly recommend this place for its amazing food, drinks, and welcoming vibe—a true gem in the Hills!

How good is this place! The German Apple Cheese Cake is to die for (Tip for young players the cloder the better)! And the coffee.... I love the hell out of coffee, This one impressed the hell out of me. Thanks for an unexpected morning. Rob.

I've been here a few times, and each experience has been different. Often, it depends on who is serving on the day. Today a group of us met for coffee and cakes etc. It was very pleasant and the staff were accommodating to the group size. Prices are slightly on the high side. For example, $5.40 for a small cup of coffee and $8.20 for a vanilla slice. Their brekkie wrap (hashbrown, slice of bacon, scrambled egg, and a piece of lettuce) is very nice and at $10.20 more reasonably priced. I was told their produce is made locally. Oh, and the cafe doubles as a postal agency providing limited Australia Post services.

the main perk of this place is the drive through. During a rush they do a good job at keeping up with customers inside and in the drive through. staff are friendly. Coffee is nice. Decent food. Great if you're driving somewhere and want quick coffee that will taste better than Maccas

Absolutely love coming through the drive through and being served by your barista Justin. He is so happy and friendly towards me. He knows my family coffee order off by heart now regardless if im just getting the two coffees for my wife and myself or if im getting the whole family coffees and hot chocolate. This place and the staff make doing life so much easier
