Sorensen’s Glasshouse
8 Herbert Street, Leura
+ 61 2 4700 2633
Located in the picturesque village of Leura, Sorensen’s Glasshouse & Gardens is a serene and contemporary eatery with horticultural history.
The café is situated on the former nursery site of Paul Sorensen, Australia’s most celebrated landscape gardener, who designed many of the region’s iconic estate gardens. The structure itself is a stunning, light-filled glasshouse that allows diners to feel immersed in the surrounding greenery, regardless of the mountain mist or winter chill outside.
The menu reflects this botanical setting, focussed on seasonal ingredients and garden-to-plate simplicity. It is particularly renowned for its hearty soups, delicate tarts, and a refined selection of cakes that pair perfectly with their specialty coffee.
Whether you are sitting among the ferns in the glasshouse or wandering through the historic gardens after a meal, Sorensen’s offers a tranquil escape that honours the sophisticated gardening heritage of the Blue Mountains.
