For a town of only 10,000 people, Bowral punches way above its weight when it comes to food. First stop, before The Crit, is carb loading at the famous Gumnut Patisserie. If you’re riding on Sunday, The Press Shop, one of Bowral’s best cafes, is open early and sits just near the start line.
Use the day before your ride to fuel your body with a southern Italian pizza at Eccetera or noodles at Ms Pho Canteen or The Bowral Asian Cuisine.
When the ride finishes and it’s time to celebrate, check out Onesta Cucina for a luxury Italian experience or Leila at the Grand for a Lebanese feast with cocktails, or for a hearty meal, none other than The Bowral Hotel. If you’re up to travel a little further, head to Mittagong’s Paste Australia, an award-winning Thai fine diner or to Bendooley Estate in Berrima, a vineyard with striking architecture and modern Australian dining.
