Luna

Luna is a bar and dining venue on London Circuit in Civic, Canberra, built around an evening of food, drinks and music. Its art-deco setting combines older architectural character with dramatic contemporary touches, creating a polished backdrop for a casual drink, a shared meal or a later-night outing. The venue describes itself as a place to begin or finish the night, with music forming part of the experience rather than being an afterthought.

The food offering centres on elevated street food and seasonal dishes influenced by flavours from around the world, with a modern-Australian thread running through the menu. Luna’s dining format is designed for sharing, while the venue also says it can accommodate more intimate occasions. The drinks list places particular emphasis on signature cocktails, made with local and international spirits alongside in-house elements. For those choosing beer, wine or spirits, the venue also promotes a Thursday and Friday happy hour featuring tap beers, selected wines by the glass and premium house spirits.

There is more to Luna than its regular food and drinks service. Its program has included live entertainment, long-lunch events and other hosted occasions, giving the venue a changing social calendar. Luna also offers a range of spaces for private events, from smaller gatherings through to larger celebrations, and invites enquiries for business functions and other occasions. That makes it a practical option when you want a venue with both a bar atmosphere and event capability.

In Civic, Luna suits couples looking for a dressed-up drink and dinner, groups sharing food and cocktails, or anyone wanting to add music and a more theatrical setting to their night out. It is open from 4pm until late on Thursdays and Fridays, and from midday until late on Saturdays and Sundays. With a 4.5-star Google rating from 184 reviews, it is an established option for drinks, shared dining and celebrations in central Canberra.
