Canberra's Best Private Dining Rooms
Canberra's private dining scene punches well above its weight, anchored by lakeside fine dining and European sophistication. The Boat House offers three garden-set rooms beside Lake Burley Griffin, while Water's Edge brings a unique dining dome concept to the waterfront. In the city centre, Courgette's wine cellar and Koto's interconnecting Japanese dining rooms cater to intimate gatherings, and Edgar's Inn in Ainslie provides relaxed pub-style private dining. The Parliamentary Triangle's French bistro Louis rounds out a diverse offering. Canberra's private dining rooms combine political city polish with genuine warmth and some of the country's most talented chefs.
