u8one2 catering
u8one2 is a catering company with a headquarters-cum-café in the bottom of the Space apartments on Northbourne Ave. I popped in this morning for a quick coffee to be greeted by a bunch of friendly faces hard at work preparing the day’s catering orders. They promptly made my double macchiato (short and tasty), and I was lucky enough to be offered a muffin fresh from the oven.
This place certainly doesn’t have the ambience of a busy café, but it is good nonetheless for a quick coffee or meal accompanied by the quiet bustle of the catering staff doing their thing.
u8one2 is open 8am - 3pm weekdays.

While only open a few days where Coyote Cafe used to be they already seem well established. Now using Canberra’s ONA beans, my latte was well made - perfect temperature with well textured milk. Chocolate and walnut brownie was a particularly good accomp…

Passable coffee. Over-extracted shot of espresso lead to an unwanted bitterness, and milk was done too hot to ~75ºC.
Coffee isn’t really their strong point: the amazing pastries (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED) and other baked goods is where they shine. Definite…

This hotel has a small cafe in their lobby and make take-away coffee until 10:00am. It’s not great, but is the closest coffee to the ABC’s Northborne office.

All Bar Nun
1 Macpherson St, Canberra ACT 2602, Australia
Duck into the pub’s cafe area to bang out some work on the free wifi. Met by screaming children, terrible decor and non-functioning wifi but gladly an utterly delicious and smooth double shot latte. A complete fail redeemed by good coffee karma.

Delissio Brasserie
Mort St & Elouera St, Braddon ACT 2612, Australia
The long black here is middling to good. A little weak maybe. The breakfasts are excellent so the combination of food and coffee make this a worthwhile option. But if it is just coffee you are after head around the corner into Lonsdale St.
