After not wanting to stop in Weston for breakfast because of the morning traffic, we decided to try Manuka and stumbled on this place. OMG is all I can say. The food is really good and the service very good. My Favourite breakfast is the Zucchini fritters. What a way to start the day

Approximate cost: $15

The service is slick, the menu is innovative, the price is over the top - but this is Manuka, ladies and gents. The staff were very accommodating when we went there on a very busy Sunday lunch in June. The soup was quite impressive and the beef burger that I went for was really well done - it is gourmet, but for the price, it has to be. Nice place to take visitors - it shows off some of Canberra's class.

Approximate cost: $25

This place is very popular. Ive been there for breakfast and lunch, although the food was okay, it's very overpriced. The atmosphere is pretty cool too.

Urban Pantry is very popular- if you plan on a weekend breakfast you absolutely have to book. Otherwise the wait can easily be an hour or more!

That said, the coffee and the atmosphere are worth it! These guys know how to make coffee.

They also do a very good Italian-style dinner!

I enjoyed my dinner at Urban Pantry, but I probably won't head back. For the price, it seemed over-rated. The food was decent, but nothing special, and the wait-staff were incredibly vague.

Approximate cost: $32
