Why it's worth checking out
DOP sits on Ainslie Avenue in the heart of Canberra's Civic, in the central city precinct. A well-regarded cafe and wine bar, it's earned a strong reputation for its quality coffee and food by day and good drinks by night — the kind of versatile, characterful spot that works equally well for a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine.
The appeal is that combination of quality coffee, good cafe fare and a great wine-and-drinks offering in a relaxed, characterful setting in central Canberra, ideal for a morning coffee, a leisurely brunch, a casual bite or a relaxed evening over wine. Its versatile, all-day-into-evening offering and genuine character have made it a real favourite, and DOP has clearly won over a loyal following.
With a 4.8 rating from more than 260 reviews, it's clearly delighting its visitors. Menus, drinks lists, opening hours and offerings change with the seasons, so it's worth checking current details before you go — though for a great coffee, a quality bite or a relaxed glass of wine, it's often just a matter of dropping in and seeing why it's so well rated in Civic.
