We were hungry, the place was buzzing with locals, which is always a good sign, and so we ordered two “ big breakfasts” and took a seat in the pleasant and traditional country café. Soaking up the warm and welcoming atmosphere we watched the passing parade, appreciated local art on the walls, and enjoyed observing the charming unhurried mood of fellow diners as we the awaited our meals.
Now I can tell you I am a very big eater, and rarely ever leave any of my meal behind, but this meal was country cooking with gusto! in a word, it was YUM!
Anne Howell was on the till, the proud new Peppers owner of 3 months. No newcomer to the task, Anne had worked for the previous owners for the past 13 years. “ We make everything on site. We do catering, mainly finger food and can seat up to 45 in our cafe. Another Annie, who is 75 years old, comes in twice a week to make her specialty – pasties. Annie has been making these pasties for the past 13 years, it is her passion, and everyone loves them”.
House specialties include apple and apricot pie, quiche and an ever changing selection of country favourites.
If you are ever in Charters Towers and looking for a real meal, Peppers is the place to go!
