Beatnik - COOMA

The owner has sold the business. It has reopened under new management and now trades as Under the Elms.

The food and atmosphere at this restaurant are excellent. The staff is friendly and provides quick and efficient service. We decided to get takeout sandwiches for lunch during our days on the slopes, which turned out to be a healthier and more affordable choice compared to buying lunch at the ski resorts.

Quick stop along the way from Canberra to Bega.. Cooma has a hidden gem!!! This awesome lil cafe playing chill music with a book exchange and 33 1/3, 45rpm records hanging from the back wall is just damn cool! Explaining to my son 9yrs what a recorder player was interesting thou... Now the food is fresh, tasty and the coffee is excellent☺ If your passing through Cooma drop in and say hi to the friendly staff

Visited when we were passing through on a road trip and happened to spot this little place on the corner. Its quirky retro charm was very appealing and it was cosy and warm on a crisp autumn morning. I enjoyed my french toast with a side of bacon, while my husband had a good value bacon and egg roll. Coffee was very good.I noticed that there are vegan options available on the menu, which is very welcome for those so inclined.

Ordered a vegie burger which was fresh and tasty, plenty of salad Coffee a bit weak for my taste Service very good
