Café Piemonte
Piemonte is a region in Italy that means ‘foothill’ and when you eat out at Café Piemonte in Terrey Hills you’ll immediately find your feet with the delicious Australian/Italian cuisine and the welcoming family atmosphere.

Colin Fisher has been running Café Piemonte with his wife and kids for a year and counting. The Fisher’s chose to take up the challenge of running their own café after falling in love with the semi-rural atmosphere and the relaxing area of Terrey Hills.
 |
Terrey Hills is a family-orientated suburb so it’s only fitting that Café Piemonte makes kids and parents feel right at home. There are options on the menu that little kids go nuts for, while outside is a playground, Ted the Shetland pony, and a big brood of chooks the littlies can feed.
But while Café Piemonte is perfect for children, it’s the parents who have it good here. From the balcony parents can watch their kids muck around outside while they dig into hearty café style food and sip a quiet glass of wine.
