Two Blind Mice Curtin

Two Blind Mice Curtin brings together the easy feel of a local pub and the cooking of a modern European kitchen in the Curtin Shops, in Canberra’s Woden area. The venue describes its approach as casual dining with more ambitious food, combining Italian restaurant influence with a relaxed, neighbourhood setting. It works across the day, with cafe-style breakfast offerings, lunch, dinner, drinks and a menu designed to suit both quick visits and longer meals.

The food ranges widely without losing its central European and Italian character. The wood-fired pizza list includes familiar choices such as Margherita alongside options like Diavola, Capricciosa, Bianca and Prawn & Semi-Dried Tomatoes. For a more substantial meal, the menu includes Beef Ossobuco Ragu with pappardelle, slow-cooked Lamb Shank, Venison Gnocchi Bolognese, Seafood Marinara and a Grass Fed Scotch Fillet. Smaller plates such as fried zucchini flowers, burrata, mussels and pan-seared scallops make it easy to share, while gluten-free options and gluten-free pizza bases are also available across the menu.

Breakfast is a genuine part of the offer rather than an afterthought. The cafe-style menu includes sourdough toast, eggs your way, a bacon-and-egg roll, sauteed mushrooms, avocado on toast, Eggs Benedict, porridge, buttermilk hotcakes and a larger breakfast plate. The website also highlights family-friendly meals, with children’s choices available at breakfast and dinner. Later in the day, the drinks list covers coffee, fresh juices, tap and packaged beer, cocktails and non-alcoholic options, giving the venue a useful choice for a morning coffee, a casual drink or a full meal.

The atmosphere is presented as relaxed and unfussy, with the comfort of a local gathering place rather than a formal dining room. That makes Two Blind Mice suitable for a casual date, a family meal, a catch-up over drinks or a group celebration. The venue promotes flexible spaces for get-togethers and parties, with no venue hire fees stated on its site. Located at 6/44 Curtin Place, it is a practical local option for people looking for a restaurant in Curtin with a broad menu, wood-fired pizza and enough variety to accommodate different appetites.
