Great Italian cafe with reasonable prices for high quality food. Their pizzas are based on traditional Italian with a modern twist. I love their pancetta pizza with mushrooms. BYO wine.

Approximate cost: $20

Amazing tea shop, enormous range of teas and associated wares. My fav tea is their Melbourne Breakfast, not cheap but very flavourful and nice treat!

Went here with my partner to grab a coffee and a light lunch. Staff were friendly and they make a great chai latte. Highly recommend their frittatas.

Approximate cost: $15

This place is absolutely amazing, they focus on that everyone needs slightly different treatments and tailor accordingly with great results. Super personal service and the staff are knowledgeable and able to explain how you should be treating yourself at home too. Jessica works on nails and her work is brilliant.

Best fish and chip place in Canberra (though obviously we don't have much to chose from). Their seafood baskets are delicious and quite fresh seeing as stuff has to come from the Sydney markets.

Had to get a full valet clean on my car after having dogs in it for a trip. Excellent service and my car was perfectly clean afterwards. Handy having the cafe there for customers as it does take a fair bit of time for the full clean.

Approximate cost: $40

This is an interesting cafe because they have a real focus on the nutritional value of food. The menu consists of lots of whole foods and plenty of the "superfoods". It's done well in a creative and flavourful way. Definitely recommend their muesli breakfast bowl.

I've gone here for their casual swimming in the baby area and the pool and pool areas are always clean. Staff are friendly and happy to offer guidance.

Lovely beauty salon that frequently has offers available. I wish they had longer opening hours though. Great staff and nice facilities.

Intimate bar in the City, extensive cocktail menu and quiet enough to be able to hold a conversation. Pricey but pretty standard for the area it's located in.
