Bootlegger Bar, Katoomba
Speakeasy vibes with a stacked bar and cocktail menu to match, the Bootlegger Bar is amping up the nightlife in Katoomba.
The Bootlegger Bar may be known for their low and slow BBQ meat selection, but we can't go past their monster burgers! Try the Double Bacon Cheeseburger with homemade BBQ sauce and side of paprika salted phat chips.
Pay attention on approach - Bootlegger Bar is located in one of Katoomba’s best examples of 1920’s architecture, the Niagara.
Shuttle Stop Corner Store & Take Away, Katoomba
This hole in the wall corner store receives consistent reviews from Blue Mountains residents and visitors lucky enough to stumble upon it. It provides a classic Australian milk bar experience right down to the beetroot on the burgers and the chicken salt on the chips.
Drop by this iconic family owned and operated store on your walk to see another Mountains icon, the Three Sisters.
EATS270, Scenic World
After an action-packed morning filled with unlimited rides and the Sculpture at Scenic World outdoor gallery, refuel at Scenic World’s onsite eatery, EATS270.
The signature Angus beef burger with steakhouse chips always tops the bestsellers, served up with breathtaking panoramas of the Three Sisters and Jamison Valley. EATS270 is open every day of the year from 11am.
The Cheese Steak Factory, Lawson
The name may say cheese steak but the reviews scream burgers! This menu is packed mouth-watering options (hello mozzarella sticks!) but we can’t go past the Factory Bacon Burger with its homemade beef patty, grilled bacon and lettuce on a classic milk bun.
Just off the highway in the village of Lawson, the Cheese Steak Factory makes the perfect lunchtime pit stop if you’re travelling through the Blue Mountains.
