Short Black Coffee is a cafe in Kiama with an outdoor area. Dog access isn't confirmed, but venues with an outdoor area are often dog friendly, so it may be worth checking. Just 50m away, Hindmarsh Park is a great nearby park for a walk with your dog.
normal food. And the chocolate in the hot chocolate is at the bottom of the cup, not melted in the water, so it tastes strange.
Went for my birthday on the 12th of october and staff were absolutely lovely, I love the aesthetic of the cafe as well as the food as it looks and taste out of this world. Definitely a place to go for a catch up with friends or family. Normal menu in images
Shot Black is easily one of the best coffee spots around. The coffee quality is consistently excellent, and you can tell the team really puts effort into every cup. What stands out most is the service—the staff are friendly, genuine, and make the whole experience feel welcoming. It’s mainly a morning place, which fits perfectly if you want to start the day with great coffee and good energy. Hard-working team, amazing service, and coffee that never disappoints—definitely worth checking out.
Visited about a month ago, service was friendly, coffee and food took a little while to arrive. Bacon and egg roll was not bad, cheese burger was very greasy & southern chicken burger was very dry & tasteless. Tasted like Cheeto’s powder coated on the chicken patty. Coffee was not bad..
Hands down..the best Cafe in Kiama..if not south coast. We travel 45 minutes out of our way..bypassing the winner of best small country town on the way...just to get a meal at this little gem. Location is superb..with outdoor dining available, to look over the Kiama harbour. Service is top notch with staff that are attentive and friendly. The cleanliness of the cafe is 5 stars. The waitstaff clear dishes and cups efficiently without being intrusive, they wipe down tables and seats as soon as vacated, and sweep the floor of dropped crumbs. The menu is a refreshing change from the usual cafe fare. With an all day breakfast menu, it is extensive and has more options than your standard egg or vegetarian dishes. The Brioche French toast is a beautiful thick cut serving with perfectly paired toppings. Waffles are available too. Have had both the big breaky and vegie breaky wraps..delicious. The hot mess roll is a definite must for anyone who loves a decent sized, hot, all in one breakfast or even lunch. On a soft milk bun, the beef brisket is juicy and tender with lots of flavour topped with scrambled egg, gooey Swiss cheese and ..well, you'll just have to try it to see for yourself. This cafe gets very busy, but there is always enough staff to handle the influx of customers and the food is served quickly..no mean feat when it is made to order. The coffee is exceptional, brewed perfectly and any requests for extras are noted and provided. The French Earl Grey leaf tea is my go to..not being a coffee drinker. Paired nicely with a Biscoff ball..yum! Lastly, I can't believe the prices for the outstanding in-house made to order food Short Black offers. It is excellent value for money. Can't recommend this place highly enough. Love it🤩
