Tucked in the historic Gearin Hotel, just a leisurely wander from the heritage-listed **Carrington Hotel** and a five-minute drive to the **Three Sisters** lookout at Echo Point, this cosy coffee haven is your perfect launch-pad for every Blue Mountains adventure. ([onthesoulside.com][1])
### Why visitors rave
1. **Artisan coffee & treats** - sip a flat white before tackling the **Prince Henry Cliff Walk**, then refuel with house-baked cakes for the trek to **Scenic World**.
2. **Live music every week** - from the crowd-powered *Argentis Live Jukebox* Sundays (pick any of 200+ songs!) ([rbm.org.au][2]) to the ethereal folk of **Luna Wolf** (next set: 23 March 2025, 12-2 pm) ([allevents.in][3]), there's always a soundtrack to your latte.
3. **Evening soul sessions** - share a local wine platter while mellow jazz floats through the timber rafters during *Soul Evening* Fridays. ([onthesoulside.com][4])
4. **Trailhead convenience** - grab a takeaway brew before sunrise at **Echo Point**, or park easily beside Katoomba Station when you roll back from a day at **Jenolan Caves**.
5. **Creative community vibe** - owner-curator David Griffiths keeps the stage open; it's the venue Sydney musos beg to guest-spot when touring the Mountains. ([facebook.com][5])
Tucked inside the historic Gearin Hotel, the Soul Side of Town Café is Katoomba's home for freshly roasted brews, soulful gigs, and friendly vibes.
Only a easy stroll from the grand **Carrington Hotel**, and minutes by car from the jaw-dropping **Three Sisters**, the café makes the ideal base for travellers hitting **Echo Point**, **Scenic World**, or the lush walking tracks that lace the **Blue Mountains** National Park.
Every week, enjoy up-close live acts like Luna Wolf, plus pop-up guest sets from touring mountain musicians. Match the groove with a velvety flat white, a decadent brownie, or a share-board of regional cheeses-and when the sun dips, slide to the new **Soul Evening**: boutique wines, shared plates, and sunset soul.
Planning your day? Start at sunrise with a takeaway brew, snap the first light on the Three Sisters, swing past the **Carrington's** Queen Victoria grandeur, then unwind here for brunch. As locals say, it's the "last great coffee for 1,000 miles."
