Central Canberra – or ‘Civic’ – is home to a vast array of hospitality options.
East Row and City East are situated around City Walk, Garema Place and the Canberra Centre and features everything you could dream of. Closer to the ANU along West Row and in City West you’ll find hidden laneways, casual eateries and fine dining.
New Acton features hotels, bars, cinemas and an array of trendy eateries. Lonsdale Street and Mort Streets in Braddon feature pubs, outdoor dining, pop-up shops, restaurants and plenty of colour (including our famous Rainbow Roundabout).
However, Walter and Marion Mahony Griffin’s ‘garden city’ masterplan required there be a shopping precinct in every suburb. Therefore, some of the best hospitality venues are hidden away outside of the city centre.
Within the inner-south, Kingston and Manuka have a wide variety of options and are just 5 minutes’ walk from one-another. The smaller areas of Griffith, Narrabundah and Deakin each have their own unique options.
Within the inner-north there are a huge variety of options in Dickson as well as some smaller venues in Ainsley, O’Connor, Lyneham and Watson.
The Yass Valley is one of the world’s most prestigious cold climate wine regions, and lies entirely within 1 hour’s drive of Canberra.
The Snowy Mountains are just 2 hours from Canberra. You’ll be able to enjoy some spring skiing in the same day as mountain-biking, horse-riding and bushwalking.
The beautifully diverse NSW South Coast is 2-3 hours away and includes Shoalhaven & Jervis Bay, the Eurobodalla Shire and the Sapphire Coast.
The Southern Highlands have been welcoming tourists for over a century. If you’re headed through Sydney then why not stop over along the way?
