Why it's worth checking out
Gryphons Caffe & Bar is a café, bar and dining venue serving Canberra from morning through to dinner. Its offer is deliberately broad: morning coffee, breakfast, lunch, dinner and drinks are all part of the day, making it suited to a quick daytime stop as well as a longer evening visit.
The venue presents itself as relaxed, familiar and welcoming, with an emphasis on good food, drinks and easy company rather than a formal dining experience. The website suggests a flexible setting for catching up over lunch, settling in for dinner with a glass of wine, or simply dropping by during the day. It may suit casual dates, small groups and solo visitors looking for a straightforward place to eat or have a drink.
Gryphons is listed in Manuka, Canberra, while the venue’s website provides the address as 16 Barker St, Griffith ACT 2603. It is open across the day, with later trading from Tuesday to Saturday for dinner and drinks; Sunday and Monday trade is daytime only. Bookings and enquiries can be made by phone or email, or visitors can drop in.
