Armidale foodies seeking fare with a French twist head along Rusden Street to find Café Patisserie. This cosy café buzzes with activity as locals stop by for a warm buttery croissant to go with their morning coffee, in rustic surrounds of painted brick, recycled timber, trailing greenery and Edison bulb lighting. From an enticing menu of sweet crepes, savoury galettes, housemade quiches and pies, expect to delve into the likes of a provencale galette with spicy Merguez sausage, cheese, ratatouille, soft egg and green salad. Seafood lovers opt for the Nordique – cured and hot smoked salmon, spinach, sour cream, lemon, herbs and beetroot salad; while sweet tooths choose a salted caramel and whipped cream crepe. Don’t forget to grab a treat to take home from the overflowing cabinets.
