Currently, in January 2026, the cafe is hemmed in by road works so getting to it involved a bit of effort. I had a bacon and egg sandwich (without the included embellishments - no price reduction offered) that was pricey but substantial. However it was very dry and needed butter. The long black coffee was ok but a bit cloudy indicating the fine grains had got through. To be honest I never got a perfect long black anywhere in my 3 week tour of ACT, NSW and VIC but I am fussy when it comes to coffee. It was quiet and service was fast at 8am.

Horrifically overpriced but great food and coffee 90$ for breakfast with two coffees and two basic mains is a bit of a stretch. But the food was high quality and fresh, good portion size. Coffee is Interesting with multiple different blends and roasts and styles of coffee to have which was interesting

A small/medium cafe near the Canberra City Centre; just off Northbourne Avenue. Street parking nearby as well as an easy stroll from surrounding suburbs. Enjoyed the French Toast which was definitely amazing and delicious. An amazing feast of flavours and an experience to eat!

Place is cozy and food is absolutely amazing! Totally recommended. Note that when we visited on 12 oct 2025, there was construction work for light rail extensions, which made parking a little bit difficult. I am not sure when it is scheduled to be completed.

Caffe Cherry Beans - Civic offers a cozy, tucked-away cafe experience in Canberra with friendly staff and a welcoming vibe. The menu covers coffee, breakfast, light cafe fare, and desserts. Reviews praise fast service, satisfying drinks like dirty chai and iced dark chocolate with vanilla ice cream, and a calm, spacious atmosphere, while noting occasional upkeep concerns and a weekend surcharge.
