Silo Bakery

Best Known For

Slow-roasted lamb pot pie, with vegetables, puff pastry and potato mash.

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 signature French toast, with Prosecco jelly, pomegranate coulis and housemade mascarpone. For the lunch crowd, expect options like handmade pasta, blue swimmer crab and tamarind broth; or slow-roasted pork belly, apple compote, sauerkraut and jus. Don't forget to grab a loaf of sourdough, or pear and caramel tart on the way out for later.
