Silo Bakery

Best Known For

Smoked salmon pizza, with red onion, capers, garlic and chilli cream.

Part Brooklyn, part Parisian – that's Silo Bakery on Giles Street in Kingston. From a room full of Australian and European cheese to freshly baked bread, this happily buzzing Canberra café is alive with conversation, as friends catch up over coffee and a sweet treat from the cabinet. Geometric tiled floors and white subway tiles add a sleek, clean look to this local favourite where lingering over brunch is the norm, while enjoying a plate of eggs Florentine, with sautéed spinach, Parmesan, olive oil and toasted baguette. For the lunch crowd, expect options like handmade pasta, blue swimmer crab and tamarind broth; or a tasty leek and taleggio pastry, with witlof salad and walnut dressing. Don't forget to grab a loaf of sourdough, or pear and caramel tart on the way out for later.
