About Reminiscence Restaurant, Italian, Tapas Cafe Wine & Whisky Bar

Right opposite Springwood train station, this understated storefront unfolds into a multi-room haven of tapas and top-shelf pours. Behind the modest street front lies a relaxed lounge and a sheltered, tree-lined deck out back—ideal for kicking back after a day on the Blue Mountains trails. Frequent patrons point straight to the deep roster of specialty whiskies and tailored cocktails. Shared plates mix Spanish notes with broader pantry influences: crisp pork belly, seared lamb cutlets, and cumin eggplant alongside house-baked bread and velvety pumpkin purée.

  • Curated Spirits & Wine: Extensive cellar sheets feature hard-to-find whiskies, local tap beer, and classic cocktails.
  • Multi-Room Hideaway: An unassuming shopfront opens to bar seating, a lounge, and a covered garden deck among trees.
  • Station-Side Convenience: Directly facing Springwood station, easing pre-theatre dinners and transit stops without driving.

Before you head over

Practical dining advice for planning your visit to Reminiscence

  • Take the Train Directly Opposite

    Arrive via public transport rather than driving if you plan to explore the extensive wine and whisky library; the restaurant sits directly opposite Springwood station.

  • Request the Outdoor Covered Deck

    When the indoor dining room is full, acoustics can become lively; request a table on the covered rear deck amongst the trees for a quieter setting.

  • Plan for Dine-In Table Service

    Note that dining is exclusively dine-in with no takeaway service, though the kitchen accommodates gluten-free, vegan, and pescatarian dietary needs seamlessly.
