Posted on
Craving some country charm and good food but don’t have time to leave town? It might be time to rediscover Hall.
Located just off the Barton Highway in the north of Canberra, when you visit this quaint and quiet village it almost feels like you’ve stepped back in time to the nineteenth century. But with an abundance of delicious bites, it’s a modern foodie’s delight.
Here are five mouth-watering reasons you should stop in at Hall. It’s worth it.
Kynefin

Breakfast, lunch, cakes, coffee, beer, wine – Kynefin is iconic for a reason. And while it went viral in 2020 for its utterly adorable ‘Afternoon Picnic Tea’, you might better know Kynefin for its addictive Bombolini Doughnuts. Made fresh in-house daily, if you haven’t tried one already, you need to (there are even gluten-free and vegan options available).

You can’t miss the shopfront of the stunningly beautiful flower-adorned Sugar Plum Fairy Cakes – and you won’t want to. Located on the main streets of Hall Village, here you’ll find an abundance of home-baked cakes that almost look too beautiful to eat (which you can also custom order for a special occasion) and plentiful cups of ONA coffee. A visit will take your coffee and cake date to the next level.

A nod to when Hall was established, 1882 Bar and Grill is more elevated than your basic pub. Serving everything from woodfire pizza to kangaroo, pork tenderloin, and seafood linguine, here you’ll discover great food and a very extensive wine list. Sit back, relax, and enjoy a delectable lunch or dinner.
