Yarralumla Bakery
What a disappointment. Burnt, bitter and over-extracted, too big, scalding hot macchiato. The first coffee in a long time I have had to leave unfinished. One sip and I was out of there.
Quiche wasn’t bad, though.

Everything else was shut so we reluctantly tried this. Undrinkable long black; one star because I’m a positive, upbeat kinda guy.

Double Shot Caffe-Espresso Bar
18 Duff Pl, Deakin ACT 2600, Australia
Good coffee, but they might be suffering from too much popularity and trying to run with too many tables - they had really, really slow service when I was there on a Saturday. The hot chocolate was a bit sickly sweet.

28 Hopetoun Circuit, Deakin ACT 2600, Australia
A casual little cafe with a very friendly atmosphere. My Flat white was pleasant, but nothing special - just a cut above the Canberran norm. As of my visit, they were using a Hansel and Gretel coffee, but I didn’t ask for more detail. I imagine they wou…
