Six-metre ceilings, wrapped in beautiful glass, facing north-east with views of the water.Serving all of our favourites, some of the best coffee in Canberra, and awesome vibes all year long. It’s our sunny site for the south side and we couldn’t be prouder.Come for breakfast, brunch or lunch, or grab a takeaway coffee, chai or hot chocolate before setting off towards Lake Tuggeranong.Greenway is a nod to everything we hold dear, not least of all, the fact that it’s a collaboration with friends. Tim and Tristan, who used to manage Aranda but spent 2016-2019 setting up their own successful store Atlas on Hibberson in Gungahlin, helped us make this (rather large!) slice of paradise a reality.

Lamb, mackerel and duck were excellent. Zucchini flowers okay. Wine expensive. Quiet at 6 but hard to hear across the table by 7.

The steak, spatchcock and octopus was well cooked and beautifully flavoured and balanced with all the ingredients on the plate. To add to the delight was how well the vegetables were cooked and flavoured.

Our large group were well looked after with a variety of dishes from the menu being tried. The souvlaki and the seafood were perfectly prepared and the service from our wait staff was friendly and helpful with some light hearted banter thrown in. Great for party groups.
