About the restaurant

Passion for food and love of all things Italian is what inspired Basil & Vine Café.
The Fargnoli family believe food is central to our Italian way of life and large family meals are customary in our household - Meals are relaxed affairs enjoying each other’s company and the sense of community.
Traditionally Italian dishes are made with simple ingredients that can be made or procured inexpensively such as pasta, bread, cheese, olive oil and tomatoes. Italian cuisine is all about using quality ingredients well and not so much about fancy cooking techniques.

Belle Epoque is a wonderful place where you almost feel like you are in a Parisian tea salon. We had the high tea with a glass of champagne, and I also required a gluten free option. I was very impressed with the selection of both savoury and sweet items, as well as the gluten free options. It was actually too much food and our wonderful wait staff had no hesitation to package up what we didn’t manage to eat so we could take it away to savour later. Definitely worth paying the money for this high tea experience.

You can also take a piece of Mayfield home with you. Choose from our very own delicious jams, chutneys and oils along with other local merchandise.

Greenway

About the restaurant

Six-metre ceilings, wrapped in beautiful glass, facing north-east with views of the water.

Serving all of our favourites, some of the best coffee in Canberra, and awesome vibes all year long. It’s our sunny site for the south side and we couldn’t be prouder.

Come for breakfast, brunch or lunch, or grab a takeaway coffee, chai or hot chocolate before setting off towards Lake Tuggeranong.

Greenway is a nod to everything we hold dear, not least of all, the fact that it’s a collaboration with friends. Tim and Tristan, who used to manage Aranda but spent 2016-2019 setting up their own successful store Atlas on Hibberson in Gungahlin, helped us make this (rather large!) slice of paradise a reality.
