Boffins - Canberra

Great restaurant perfect for an amazing meal in a quiet and stylish setting.

Fantastic!. As we were staying at University House we decided to give Boffins a go and we liked it so much we dined two nights in a row! Fantastic service, fantastic food, highly recommend! The perfect understated elegance that Canberra does so well.

Really lovely meal with fresh ingredients and interesting flavours. Great selection of reasonably priced local wines. They have a new, fresh team who are keen and passionate and the atmosphere was comfortable and stylish. One star off because service was a little slack at one point but all over a great experience and highly recommended.

More of a 4.5 star than 5, but still exceptional. Great food and professional staff. The diner style booths give it an historic charm. Soft furnishings and lighting make it perfect for dinner conversations you can actually hear. Usually better to make a booking, especially during busy nights of the week and parliamentary sittings.

Small quite but beautiful location and atmosphere. I had the duck which was to die for and zucchini cake which to me was amazing. Well attended to by staff. I highly recommend for quiet romantic/intimate dinners.
