Mr Watkins Bar

Brunch before a show
Located a little stroll away from Penrith’s train station and at the heart of Penrith, Mr Watkins is, most likely, one of the most welcoming places, we have ever set foot in. This is a day-time café with an evening restaurant. It is set in a beautifully restored former fishmonger shop. From the concise menu that is not overloaded with hundreds of options of which nothing really tastes, we ordered Mr Watkins’ traditional cheese burger. This is a cheese burger as it should be. As a side dish, we selected a bowl of chips. This is café food at its best. We also ordered something we had never seen before: a “bread pie”. It is basically a “cranked up jaffle”. Ours was the “philly cheese steak” one that came with steak, capsicum, onion, cheese and mayo. We rounded it all up with two generously sized mugs of cappuccino (mine) and café latte (him). This is a fun place with Uber-friendly staff. We cannot wait to return to Penrith’s Mr Watkins to try the restaurant menu. For a rather unassuming looking café (from the outside), Mr Watkins is an exquisite delight.
