Had the crab omelette and green bowl. Asian style of food and very good portions. Coffee was great and well made too.

This place needs no introduction as it’s been a mainstay of the North Shore foodie scene for quite a number of years. It does a roaring trade - in normal times - with their back decking always packed on weekends for brunch. Now it’s a bit quieter but it also creates a real opportunity for those who always wanted to try their food. We dropped by for some much needed take away.
Thie Butcher's Block would have to be one of the best eateries I have been to in a long time. Outstanding!!! We arrived for lunch and the service was excellent, the food was faultless. This is a must try! we waited a little while for our coffee and the Manager came to see us immediately and sincerely apologised. We ordered two falafel burgers as one member of the family is a strict vegetarian. The burgers we thick and juicy and served on a beautiful wholemeal bun, DELICIOUS. The calamari had a light tasty coating and the eggs benedict was served on thick wholemeal toast. I will defiantly be bringing the family and my friends to this place. WELL DONE.
Flat White was merely fair, Brunch sets are fabulous especially the vegetarian options And its homemade Muffins. The Owner or Manager was friendly to ask feedback and recommendations. Due to busy shifts on Weekends, there’s no latte art on top of your Flat white. But it’s still a good one to go.
The duck parfait was the best out of all the dishes we tried for the night. I like the texture of the really chunky chips as well (personal preference). The mains did not wow us, but happy enough to have these in a local restaurant. Definitely would like to try more items if live nearby.
The place & space is lovely,the service is relatively friendly & efficient, so I can see why it has such good reviews. The food is a step behind though. My crab omelette was little average & pricey at $24. The omelette was massive, but was mostly just eggs, it desperately needs a sauce or truffle oil to give it a kick, really didn't notice the chilli masala that's supposed to be inside. The side greens were very refreshing to palette more enjoyable then the omelette itself.
Thank you for the friendly and professional service. The food was delicious and will look forwards to returning back to try more of their new menu. Both dishes executed fresh ingredients and everything tasted well together.
Great place! Pretty snazzy. The layout of the place is rustic/industrial, the waiters & waitresses are professional and always very attractive. Coffee there has always been great - respect to the baristas.
In the north shore suburb of Wahroonga The Butcher’s Block is a cafe that’s serving the community an impressive breakfast and lunch six days a week. Formerly a butcher’s shop for more than 70 years, its customers are now getting their brekkie and lunch fix. Plenty of packing nearby, backing onto a carpark. This restaurant is really long, so plenty of tables, also the staff are super attentive.
The Butcher’s Block is a cosy cafe situated near the train station in Wahroonga, a stone’s throw away from where I used to go to high school. I have since been back here a couple of times to catch up with friends and will share my experience in this post. On the first occasion, we ordered a few dishes to share. The first dish was the chicken burger with chicken breast, avocado, lettuce, tomato, mayonnaise and a side of chips. This was a delicious burger, I really enjoyed how tender and well marinated the chicken was and the avocado and mayo were both nice and creamy. We also ordered the fish and chips with a side of salad, this was also tasty, the fish was nicely beer battered and crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Finally, we ordered a freshly baked meat pie from the bakery and I could taste the real mince meat in it, not just god knows what you eat from frozen pies at take away shops.

Food was above average overall (3.5). Starter was interesting, mains were ok (steak was average), dessert was nice.
One staff member was quite abrupt and rushed us a few times (between receiving the menu and being asked for our orders we were given perhaps two minutes) while forgetting to serve the other table she was looking after. Another staff member was absolutely delightful: friendly, warm and accommodating.
Simple interiors, clean and pleasant.
Overall quite nice but on the pricey side. Personally would recommend brunch over dinner.
We went here for my birthday lunch with my family, my Mum is in a wheel chair and the restaurant is accessible and the staff were very accommodating. The reason for the 4* not 5* is that the service was pretty poor. We had to keep asking the staff for water, the served my niece a full cream milkshake instead of a lactose free milkshake. Other than this the food was really good and we enjoyed our lunch! Good options for df and gf people and I also don't eat red meat. Would eat here again
Enjoyed our time at Butchers block. We had the rib platter and the marinades were quite different and tasty. Calamari seemed to be a popular option with many patrons opting for it.
Seating is a bit congested and the lady who waited on us (Pooja) could have been more accommodating.
Will be back to try the breakfast menu
Food is amazing! Coffee is really good and a must try! The almond croissant is very tasty! Pancakes and corn critters are also good!
Had a late lunch at butchers block. We had the beef burger, the katsu bowl and the falafel bowl. They all tasted fine but the price does not match the potions given.
This place was awesome, the Ribs were super tender n tasty the sides were all perfect matches
Delicious cocktails and steaks cooked perfectly! Such a nice local place for date night.
My first visit due to a staff farewell function. We were allocated a private venue in the alfresco area with 25 attendees. Catherine was our host for the entire evening. The service was very friendly and attentive, the food was immaculate and very generous in portion. My colleagues are still raving on about how much they enjoyed the place and already planning a return visit. A must try if you're ever in the area.
