The Front

Every plate is a canvas at this neighbourhood café and art gallery in Lyneham. It’s the place to head for fluffy pancakes piled high with more fruit than a Carmen Miranda headdress; a classic brekky burger beefed up with cheddar, sausage and slaw alongside your egg and bacon combo; and avo toast sprinkled with a litter of Egyptian dukkah. After filling your bellies, head to the gallery next door to catch the latest exhibition by local Canberran artists – and maybe even some after-hours entertainment on opening night.
