The Red Herring, a cafe that deliberately aims to challenge Canberra cafe culture. Situated in the heart of Civic, The Red Herring does things differently: The furniture consists of a collection of cobbled together couches and armchairs arranged in a series of rooms a study, lounge room, bedroom and even a kid's play area.
The coffee is a rainforest certified blend (ona), which is expertly made by a trained barista. The Red Herring serves inexpensive, fresh, and delicious food that is made daily by the owner of the cafe. Make sure to try the roast pumpkin and ricotta cannelloni and the French custard and nectarine-baked cheesecake. Gluten free and vegan options are also available.
The Red Herring is located at 83 Petrie Plaza, between Cotton On Kids and Onya Bike.
It is open 8:30am-7.pm, Monday-Friday, 10-7pm Saturday and 10am-5pm Sundays.
