A beautiful Irish Lass!
Dennis P.

Whether you are a Northy or Southy, this is a great central location to meet up after a days grind. I've had small planned events here and large planned on a whim events, and King'O's has always come through. Central enough to have it as a launching place for your outings, or to the end of a great evening. http://www.kingomalleys.com.au/

Went here on visit to Canberra in 2007. Enjoyed the food and the beer, of course. Definitely would visit again. Recommended.

I've only had bad experiences here. Expensive, and a trashy atmosphere. Lots of cred, for little reason.

Been here a few times. I'm not a vegan, but I love their vegan dishes. It's so nice having actual…read morevegetables rather than plant based meat. It's nice food that happens to be vegan, not "trying" to be vegan. I love how they update their menu seasonally, so pictured is pumpkin from one season, and eggplant from another. They are nourishing and filling. Service times for tables/ tickets if people order consecutively to split bills rather than as a whole table is a bit inconsistent even if your tickets are one after the other. But otherwise the staff are lovely and the vibes are good. I'm not a dog owner but I love how people can bring their dogs. If you come here and are a dog owner, please bring your dog (obviously outside). All my reviews are standardised to the following star ratings: 1. Customer service I.e. friendly, easy to book, etc. 2. Accessibility I.e. location, decor and scenery, easily assessable or flexible, etc. 3. Work, health and safety I.e. clean, safe, etc. 4. Quality of goods and/or services I.e. good food, good movers, etc. 5. Comparison to similar for location - I.e. would I recommend this above other places

THE TIPSY BULL. CANBERRA we stopped here for a…read moredrink after a day of sightseeing. Had read about it and it had good reviews. I see why. Hard to describe as it appeared more likely to be a BBQ/Burger/ Beer venue. We found that outdoor ambiance on a Friday, after work, happy hour type time.. But we found tons and tons of Gins. Who would ever believe there could be so many! Seems Gin distilleries are the new Brew Pubs of Australia At any rate, how do you choose from 50/60 gins? Well, you have one of the incredibly knowledgeable staff ask what you usually drink, suggest similar choices and some different tastes you might like. I chose one for its shock value. It was made with ants only found in one place in the world, Northern Australia, of course. I was told the ants tasted like lime. Yeah right, but damn if they didn't. As a snack we had some incredible Sourdough Bread with a whipped concoction of Ricotta Cheese. Really great. The place was filling up with others coming for early dinner so we left, quite satisfied, happy with our find. Can't address the actual food here, but judging by the increasing crowd it must be good. Strongly suggest making a reservation. I do have a question, though. Just how cold does it have to get in .Australia for you guys to actually light all those outdoor heaters you have?

There are a bunch of folks already complaining about customer service here -- let me add to that…read more Back in Canberra for dinner with my mum, book an outdoor table -- get there, told that's not what I booked, that couldn't tell you when, but that we can't leave because we pre-paid. It's clear they're using this mechanism not to make sure people turn up, but rather, to hold them hostage when they let them down.

Pretty cool and trendy pub in Canberra. Came here for the weekend with some friends, two of which…read morehad been and raved about the cocktails. The cocktail menu was pretty extensive and every drink sounded amazing. They all cost $15 which isn't bad compared to drinks in Sydney. For my first round, I got the So Ho Lychee flavored drink - YUMMO! And the thing with the cocktails are, you can actually taste the alcohol, they don't skip. I tried my friend's Cherry Blossom drink, very yum and very strong! My next drink with the Japanese Geisha Drink which had midori and sparkling champagne - very tasty as well. Later in the evening, an R&B singer started performing and she was really talented. This is a very cool place to hang out and have a cocktail!

I spent an evening drinking whisky, eating cheese and listening to jazz. Hard to beat. If you like whiskey or mixed drinks, this is the place to go. I'm an American and I arrived in Canberra on a Wednesday afternoon. The first thing I did when I got to my hotel was Google "Canberra jazz" and Hippo Bar was the top hit. It's located right in the heart of the city center, but its vibe is very different than the touristy stuff around it. It was dark and cozy with a film noir atmosphere. If a complex murder mystery had erupted in front of me, I would not have been surprised. They are skilled mixologists too. One bartender made a drink where he filled a rocks glass to the brim with water. Then half-filled a small brandy glass with some brown liquor, lit it on fire, began spinning the brandy glass on top of the water glass, then started shaking in something from what looked like a pepper shaker, causing sparks to fly within the brandy glass. He did this for a lot longer than I expected. It was quite a show. He finished by pouring the singed brown liquor into a new glass and grating what smelled like cinnamon on top. I was impressed. The only disappointments were the wine. I had two glasses to start and both choices were mediocre. They are clearly focused on mixed drinks and whiskey. The food choices were minimal as well. I enjoyed a cheese platter, but it wasn't a meal.
