To All My Friends
A highly acclaimed, incredibly welcoming suburban bar that completely revolves around independent craft beer and artisan wood-fired pizzas. It features a rotating list of eight craft beer taps focusing heavily on independent Australian micro-breweries. The vibe is reminiscent of an open-plan neighborhood living room, featuring a leafy, breezy outdoor beer garden at the back. Hosts a packed local trivia night every Wednesday and community open mic nights on alternating Thursdays.

The Cook Grocer
An absolute goldmine for foodies. While this family-run corner store stocks standard travel essentials, its real drawcard is its massive selection of premium local and regional gourmet products. It functions as a showcase for Canberra-district food producers, packing its shelves with artisanal wood-fired sourdoughs, handmade small-batch chocolates, regional honeys, boutique farm cheeses, and one of the largest curated organic and natural wine walls in the territory. Perfect for putting together a picnic basket to take to the lake.
