Why it's worth checking out
Patissez sits on Bougainville Street in the popular Manuka precinct of Canberra's inner south. With 837 reviews behind its 4.1 rating, it has built a strong following, and is well known for its indulgent freakshakes.
The appeal is a relaxed cafe with a devoted following — somewhere to settle in for breakfast, brunch, a coffee or one of the over-the-top milkshakes it helped make famous. Its Manuka location, close to the precinct's shops, cafes and dining, makes it an easy and welcoming stop.
Cafe menus, specials and trading hours change over time, and weekends can get busy. If you're after a particular dish or specific opening hours, it's worth confirming the current details directly with the cafe before you head over.
