BookingsWalk-ins welcome

Simply DVine Cafe serves all-day breakfast and brunch on Wine Country Drive in Nulkaba, from scrambled eggs and house-made flatbread to a sweet potato curry and a chicken gochujang burger for the lunch crowd. It opens Wednesday to Monday from 8am to 3pm, and is closed on Tuesdays. Nulkaba sits at the Cessnock end of the region, on the main road up to the vineyards.

The all-day format makes it an easy first stop for breakfast before the cellar doors open, or a late lunch on the way back. Bookings run through the cafe's online system, though a same-day table is best sorted with a phone call rather than an email, since the inbox is not checked around the clock. It is a straightforward daytime cafe rather than a dinner venue, and it suits families and anyone after a solid breakfast before a day out.
