The Museum Cafe

Had lunch there today - yum pea soup and beautiful chocolate cake. Lovely staff too! Will be back soon :)

Great coffee, great food, great service. Would eat here again on next visit to the Museum.

Standard price. Friendly stuff. Awesome lunch!

Great service with lovely views over the lake

Perfect food for reasonably price

Setting, view, service and location is great. But the café food is not good enough for lunch. Lamb with potatoes was more like a pie in a square bowl and in the stew two small pieces of meat 16,50 dollars. Apart from the food I would give it 4.

Great view of the lake. Bring visitors here!

Lovely food, nice setting.

Beautiful layout of café with view of the lake and captain cook's memorial jet. Foods are fresh and delicious.

This Avocado On Toast ‘sculpture’ is selling for $1,000,000 (?!!) I guess the old saying “you can have your avo on toast but you can’t buy a house too” is all too alive and well. Available for purchase from Woollahra Small Sculpture Prize. Get in quick before it’s snapped up...

Buttermilk pancakes 😍 w/ mixed berry compote & maple mascarpone.
Available every weekend!

Our sister cafe at the beautiful National Portrait Gallery is showing off today! Some menu items are the same, but most of them are different - drop by sometime and see for yourself why it is such a popular little spot - serving lovely brunch & lunches all weekend.
P.S. Our cafe is still better though (as rated by quick internal Museum Cafe staff poll just now) 😜😘

New vegan bowl available now - Grilled cauli, ancient grains Tabouleh, house made harissa & crispy kale chips - simply delicious! 💃🏻🙌🏼

THIS is what brunch at a cafe should look like! On a plate without the completely unnecessary "deconstruction" element 😄😋

Warning: This is NOT how we serve Vegemite on toast at our cafe! What is this cafe in Sydney thinking?!?! #bringbackplates

Very true! 😄

Happy Easter! The cafe is open today from 9am-5pm, it’s a lovely day out on the deck. And don’t worry, you can still get a normal cup of coffee! 😂

We're often asked what we do to have Canberra's BEST poached eggs on our breakfast menu - well today, finally, we are going to reveal the secret recipe for our gorgeous poached eggs.
Are you ready?
Step 1 - Start with the BEST free-range, local, fresh eggs you can find - for this we use Long Paddock Eggs Bungendore.
... Step 2 - Undertake four intensive years of Chef training to master the technique of poaching the perfect egg.
Step 3 - Once cooked, season lightly with salt & freshly cracked pepper.
Step 4 - Enjoy your perfectly poached eggs on the deck overlooking Lake Burley Griffin and bask in the magical weekend sun while you do.
That's it! We hope our competitor's don't steal this secret and follow suit. 😋😍😎
