Timber Albury opened about two weeks ago in the Ritz Arcade, previously occupied by Brown Husk.
Their health-conscious dishes and comfort food staples have found a popular following.
Timber Albury head chef Victoria Leov, who hails from Culcairn, said patrons appreciated the focus on fresh and flavoursome food.
Having studied culinary arts at William Angliss Institute of TAFE until June, Leov said she was inspired by the use of spice in many cultures.
“The menu is fresh and modern with some Asian infused favourites,” she said.
Timber Albury opens Monday to Friday, 6.30am to 3pm, and Saturday, 7.30am to 3pm.

Helping mum make choc chip cookies and then stealing the choc chips. I later found out she knew I’d taken them but she never said anything!

I always have a smoothie bowl at the weekend. On week days I usually grab a banana and I’m out the door!
