Our family visited Carlton Gore for coffee and this place was a gem! Loved the atmosphere, outside was great not too hot or cold and most of all the food. Coffee was great, brownie was probably the best brownie I’ve had in ages. Almond croissant is recommended too :)
So happy I found this little place! We ordered the Orange blossom hotcakes 🥞, French toast brioche 🍞 and a basic poached eggs on toast with a side of Avocado 🥑🍳 Everything was amazing, the fruit balanced the sweetness of the hotcakes (you could just taste a hint of orange blossom) and the food arrived really quick too!
Very happy, my food was delicious, as was wifeys. Only forced by her to drop the rating because there was no child’s options. Now I’m not a fan of making extra food (which usually is pretty limited in nutrition value) but what about some small portion options?
Actually after the coffee I think this deserves more, I’m going to 5 it and suggest you look at small portions too

Dining in for lunch on a Saturday was surprisingly quiet! Styled with white wire chairs, shades of blue cushions and marble tables, this cafe looks sleek!
There are plenty of great options on the menu we were spoilt for choice. We took our waiter, Donald’s recommendations and ordered the Signature cured eggs bene and Herb corn fritters. The eggs bene was different! But worth the risk - with sugar cured prawns, poached eggs, toasted croissant and sambal hollandaise sauce it had just the right amount of spice. Definitely worth trying for a new take on a classic and if you like prawns or a bit of punch in your sauce. The prawns and poached eggs were cooked perfectly. The corn fritters were nice and fresh and far from simple. The fritters worked well with the sides of poached eggs, avo, tomato relish, kale, shredded pecorino cheese and beetroot purée. A great option for vegetarians.
Coffee was a great and served just the way we like it. Thanks Donald for the great service and good recommendations. We’ll be back to try more dishes, which we hope will be just as good as the ones we tried today!
Love this cafe! The food is spot on, the staff are very very friendly, they have wifi so I could sit for a little bit and work, and a huge selection. Also it’s not too busy either
Have been this place a few times over the year. It always has a small crowd which is good. Always like their settings- modern and upbeat. We had some cabinet food this time. My pulled pork bap was yummy and spicy. Paninis was not too bad neither
Great find in Carlton Gore! Love the food and the service was fast and friendly. The potato galette was the highlight of my Eggs Benedict as it was good. The place was spacious and well-heated.
Lovely heathy salad. Perfect to start the day. . Simple but tasty. Good service. There was heater outside which keeps you warm. Will be back to try other dishes
Great place !!! Being a hot cake fan. I must recommend their magic 😍😍😍hotcake. It's the best hot cake I've ever had.😉😉😉The presentation of food are contemporary and innovative.
The cabinet is always full of delicious treats. Staff were super friends😊😊😊 loved everything we ordered! ! !

We come here for breakfast regularly. We love their potato galette and have been advised its GF. Staff are friendly and helpful. Good coffee too!
Only had 30min work break. So bought a large flat white and bacon eggs benedits with potato galette both to go. Made my order in under 10mins. Both food and coffee hot and fresh :)

Great find! Recommended: Creamy mushrooms, bubble waffle (might not be on menu anymore?)
Ambiance: Came here for a late brunch with my mum. The cafe was quiet, but nicely decorated and spacious so we opted to sit outside. They even have a little bowl of water for the doggos which is great!
Service: Staff were very efficient and attentive - service was fast and friendly but we didn't feel rushed to order or finish our food.
Food: We ordered the bubble waffle w/ fresh fruit and the balsamic creamy mushrooms (as pictured). Both dishes were amazing! The bubble waffle was crunchy on the outside and soft/chewy on the inside (as it should be) and was accompanied with a variety of fresh fruit and even some little meringues. The syrup came in a little pot on the side which is also a bonus!
The creamy mushrooms came very generously with two poached eggs and a lot of sauce - I'm a firm believer that any creamy mushroom dish needs to come with the creamy sauce so you can mop it up with the bread, and Carlton Gore Cafe did just that :D
Price: Fairly reasonable and typical cafe prices. I'd say you get a lot more food than expected for the price.
Overall: Will definitely be back for brunch again! Excited to try some new stuff and also drinks next time :)
Food: very affordable and good for the price.
Service: very welcoming and friendly staff.
Ambience: your typical minimalist cafe.
Would definitely recommend and be back.
Nice little cafe with great coffee. If their chocolate caramel slice is anything to go by then their food will be just as good! Fantastic heating for outside seating, like the attention to detail...hygiene levels great and the staff friendly. Would recommend.
Wonderful service with an inviting atmosphere! So grateful the heaters were on! Coffee a 3.5/5 and a variety of morning tea options to choose from!
Came here for lunch. Pretty good cabinet selection. Could have had more salad options in the cabinet. Staff were friendly and service was quick. Lots of seating and very spacious.
The French toast was nicely presented and it was nice to have strawberries. The vegetable tortilla stack had plenty of vegetables and a good variety of vegetables. I really liked the pumpkin and the side of chutney that it was served with.
The ginger slice was devine. Would definitely come back here again.
We went there today lateish in the afternoon. Very friendly greeting and service. Our hot drinks arrived promptly after making sure my 88 year old mum realized they normally serve double shot coffee. Our Tarakhi and chips was lovely as was the toasted sandwich. A great find.
Recently brought by new owners and changed from Urban cafe we had to check out Carlton Gore Cafe. The coffee was great, tick! There is a good selection on the menu, lots of things I want to try. This time I had the avocado bruschetta with a side of bacon - it was so good!!!
A popular spot in Newmarket with locals, visitors and workers in the area. Whether you're after a coffee, food or a snack you won't have a problem finding something.
There is a nice large area sectioned off for you if you're visiting with a group of 5 or 6 to sit. I worked in this area, that allowed me to still be part of the atmosphere with space to focus on my work. Lots of table space so I got to spread out and nice that the power points are available to plug into.
I had the scrambled eggs and sourdough toast, lots if butter and a soy flat white. My visitors had the frenchtoast and big deal meals!
It closes at 3 the team was great leaving us to wrap up as they cleaned and packed down other areas of the Cafe.
Very attentive staff, friendly and quick. Food tastes just as great as it looks. I will for sure be visiting a bit more and bringing friends along on my next visit.

Carlton Gore Cafe is our regular place to get Saturday breakfast now 😊
You never get disappointed here.
Good food,good coffee and even better service.
I didn’t take my dog this week as it was a bit cold for sitting outside but they are defiantly pet friendly and it is a perfect place if you’d like to sit for a coffee when you have your dog around.
100% recommended.
Absolutely beautiful taste and presentation of the food. Real treat for brunch. Coffee is also commendable. Will be back for more

The cabinet is always full of DELICIOUS treats. Staff were super FRIENDLY 😊😊😊 LOVED everything we ordered! ! !
Definitely going back soon 😋😋😋
had early brekkie here, coffee here was quite nice. chilli scramble egg was fluffy and tasty, while the toast was too hard to cut and chewy, center was soft. Same thing happened to my toast. or maybe just need a better knife 😂
I got the minted pea mash with poached egg. the presentation I give 10/10, and they really good on poached eggs, both of mine are perfect. The pea mash was a little bit sour.
Staff here are so helpful and friendly.
Anyway the experience here can be 8/10.
Good food at a good price point with eightthirty coffee accompanying. But I cannot thank the staff enough for how calmly and patiently they spent a good 20 minutes trying to successfully retrieve my phone from the gap between their sliding doors when my son got it stuck there. They are true heroes
We are regulars here. Coffee is great and the food is awesome. Great for brunch on Saturday as it’s not too busy.
I always start my day with a cup of flat white at Carlton gore cafe. It wakes me up every morning and it’s the best coffee shop in new market region. Nice environment and meal. 5 star recommended,if u haven’t been here, don’t hesitate bring you friend and family, Worth a try.
Chicken & Leek Filo is must eat. It was filing and yum.
Service is good 👍
Superb food always beautifully presented, great customer service and a lovely clean spot, you can also take your dog, and they even provide doggy snacks. Highly reccomend
Staffs are very kind, foods are great which makes me go back more, price were resonable but sometime they were closed when it says open on google map 😥
Really nice cafe,they offer quite ranges of tasty cabinet foods. Especially the kumara ball,never see elsewhere have them, it was really delicious!
Delighted Sunday brunch, relaxing environment, good service, nice staff and very pleasant, as for the food, I personally think is standard, not too much surprise, however, is a great place to catch a coffee with a friend or just simply enjoy a simple brunch. *Had creamy mushroom, which is great, not too creamy yet not too light just balance.
Love having breakfast there before work! I usually get French toast (with no egg) and the chefs always amaze with the amount of fruit they provide! Great environment and staff.
