Most Romantic Restaurants in Canberra
"Within the four separate spaces—the lounge, mosaic room, the salon and dining rooms— of this industrial-chic restaurant in Hotel Hotel, the Modern Australian plates served are designed for sharing, showcasing local and seasonal produce through each one. Sharing plates such as clams, chorizo, samphire and cider, and pressed ham hock with celeriac, apple and mustard are followed by sweet plates such as poached quince with yogurt sorbet, barberry, rose and pistachio. monsterkitchen.com.au"
"All Alpine ski lodge in decor, Hippo Co is one of city’s leading bars with a commitment to the craft of making a serious drink. There’s a great collection of whiskey and scotches, plus a balcony to take in the scene over Garema Place in Civic. There are plenty of spots for a chat and conversation-starter objects (awhole pack of taxidermic critters, framed vintage prints and retro light fittings, to name a few) about the room if you get stuck for topics."
"This is one of Australia’s longest-running and most sought out nightclub. The Hippo Co boasts a collection of over 200 choices of Whiskey. It is an amazing location to chat, share a couple of drinks and listen to some of the best Jazz music in Australia."
"One of the best night clubs in Canberra is Hippo Co, which is a cool bar with light lightening. The place offers live blues music every Monday and live jazz every Wednesday. The night bar has a list of fantastic cocktails and whiskeys."
"They serve up some of the best wood-fired pizzas in town, and on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, you can well and truly get your pizza fix at Braddon’s Bacaro. From 5-6pm, dig into all-you-can-eat pizzas for $20 per person. The cosy bar is nestled behind Italian and Sons and shares the same kitchen as the award-winning restaurant – just head down the neighbouring alleyway to find it."
"I liked the generous portion of buttermilk pancakes with seasonal fruits, lemon yoghurt sauce, house made honeycomb and vanilla ice cream. I loved the lemon infused yoghurt that thickly coated the pancakes providing tartness to the otherwise sweet dish. The vanilla ice cream, also a generous serve (about 2 scoops!) was served in a small bowl on the side."
"You’re also assured of excellent customer service from their staff. Dobinsons opened its kitchen in 1994. They have been continuously providing quality cakes for Canberrans ever since."
"Whisky bars seem to be all the rage at the moment, but Honkytonks does things a little differently – here it’s all about the TEQUILA!. If too many ‘lip, sip, sucks’ have put you off it for life, I urge you to try again…this is a different experience entirely. Combined with some pretty amazing Mexican food, moreish Sangria, and a ‘cantina’-like atmosphere, the incense-filled interior of Honkytonks is great for a chilled after work drink, or something a little noisier."
"Honkytonks specializes in Mexican and American fusion cuisine. It is one of the hip places in town to be at. It operates on all days (except Sunday and Monday)."
"This restaurant is a hidden treasure, which is great because otherwise you’d likely never be able to book yourself a table. Think South-East Asian dining that’s both fun and different. Their menu is basically a classier version of tasty street food."
"Snappy and modern with a focal square bar that takes pride of place in the centre of the room, Parlour Wine Room has emerged anew. Packed with tables and cosy nooks with couches perfect for hiding away from the cool of winter, it’s on Parlour’s terrace that you’ll be wanting a seat this summer as you overlook the evolving precinct of NewActon with a signature cocktail in hand."
"INKA, a blend of Japanese/Peruvian fusion, is one of the newest kids on the block. In the 1900s when the Japanese migrated to Peru, the cultures came together and birthed a new cuisine: Nikkei. INKA encompasses just that within the walls of its stunning restaurant."
"When two cultures collide…magic happens at Canberra’s first Nikkei restaurant Inka on Bunda Street. Fusing Japanese and Peruvian cuisine, Inka is home to a functions mezzanine, sushi bar and restauran..."
