On Oak Street in Barcaldine, Cheryl Thompson's cafe pairs strong coffee with a grounding in local Aboriginal culture. Its signature is Coolamon Coffee, a blend developed with a coffee roaster and sold under a boomerang logo that references Thompson's return to country and the Iningai people, Traditional Owners of the surrounding Desert Uplands. The room doubles as a small gallery, with Aboriginal artworks, artefacts and craft for sale, and connects to Thompson's Desert Dreaming Centre, where school groups learn regional culture and history. The kitchen turns out homemade breakfasts, burgers and sandwiches in generous outback servings, and the coffee has a steady reputation among travellers crossing the Central West. It is the kind of independent, owner-run place that gives a small railway town more character than its size suggests, open daily, unpretentious and clear about the story behind what it pours.
