After my having lunch at Local Press Cafe, I headed back the next day with friends for brunch. The one page menu makes it easier to decide on what to order. Cups and a water jug are provided after sitting down. The menu does not include drinks so I didn’t know how much my soy […] Read more…
A few weeks ago, a friend and I were looking for a light dinner before heading out dancing one night, and wandered over to Lonsdale Street in Braddon. We decided on The Elk & Pea and got a table outdoors on a rare night that it wasn’t raining. We were greeted warmly by our waiter […] Read more…
A few friends and I stopped in at Common Grounds Cafe in Gowrie for brunch one Saturday morning. I’d never heard of this cafe until reading a Canberra Weekly article about the place.

I’ve been keeping an eye out on Local Press Cafe at the Kingston Foreshore ever since I spotted its sign back in January. The sign immediately conveyed a natural and raw vibe.
