Places to Eat, Drink & Play
I just love the vibe and atmosphere of this place. Of course, they have great food, the t-bone steak and the tuna tartare and the eggplant miso dish are the bomb. They serve food late into the night. Visit their website to book online, they are often hard to get into.

Smokey, modern and delicious. You will smell the restaurant well before you see it! Open early to late, I don’t know of any other restaurant like it in Canberra. Delicious, everything!!

You cannot go past this place for brunch and waiting in line is worth it, get a take away coffee around the side while you wait. Only thing missing is a Bloody Mary and Mimosa on the menu.
ONA coffee - Raspberry Candy if you're wanting the best to start the day!

I love their cocktails and their food. Modern Australian cuisine using native ingredients. They change their menu regularly. Gosh, we have been their many times, and sometimes a couple of days in a row...

Peru and Japanese fusion. The fit out of this restaurant is like no other in Canberra!! The use of timber and fabric, it is spectacularly designed. I have to say, their food matches their great taste in design. It opened not long before Canberra entered a lockdown in August 2021. I have eaten it more takeaway than dine-in, it is excellent!!

I have loved Molly for years, I’m not too keen on whiskey but Matt certainly is. Another prohibition bar by the owners of Highball it’s reopened recently in a much bigger location. This old-fashioned themed bar will have you comfortable in seconds. They do a great Charcuteie board if you’re settling in for a few whiskeys.

Cuban prohibition rum bar, accessed by the back black staircase. It’s been opened for a few years but they fit out is still stunning. I’m partial to a Diplomatico on the rocks to set the right tone for the night.
