Cafe at the Arboretum
Overview
Cafe at the Arboretum is nested at Canberra’s National Arboretum with sweeping views back down into Canberra and across the lake.
At the Café at the Arboretum, you can choose a little or a lot – just a snack or a ready-to-eat lunch to enjoy in the Village Centre, or why not take it with you and enjoy a picnic in the beautiful surroundings of the Arboretum.
The produce is sourced primarily within Canberra’s 100-mile foodshed to support good farming in the region. The cafe proudly features locally grown vegetables, fruits, seafood, dairy, and organic and biodynamic meats.
