Café in the House, Old Parliament House
Lovely location in Old Parliament House though service can vary and the Café is on the expensive side. My most recent long black was, sadly, no better than plunger coffee.

Pork Barrel Café
King George Terrace, Parkes ACT 2600, Australia
Pork Barrel Café enjoys some nice surroundings, situated in the park across from Old Parliament House. I enjoyed a well-made piccolo latte. Service was a bit patchy, particularly given we were the only group in the entire café.

Quite good. Better than the coffee at 1 National circuit…

Questacon cafe
Mall Rd W, Parkes ACT 2600, Australia
OK for a tourist cafe. My flat white came out in a latte glass rather than a cup, which at least warned me that the milk was superheated. Not bad after it cooled off a lot but awfully milky (maybe it was a latte after all?)

Café Milieu

Café Milieu use an organic fair-trade Grinders blend to make Ok coffee. They were very busy at 8:30 this morning, but still managed speedy service.

Biscotti Bar
Reconciliation Place, Parkes ACT 2600, Australia
Longish wait for a short macchiato, but they got it right in the end. Just to show coffee in tourist spots doesn’t have to be cruddy.
