Bunda Street has entered an exciting new chapter, with a new wave of new openings, relocations and fresh dining concepts.
New additions include 7 Cutz Steakhouse, a bold new steakhouse focused on expertly prepared cuts and refined modern dining, while local favourite Kinn Thai has relocated to a new larger space next to INKA.
Hunter & Barrel has also opened at Scott’s Crossing opposite CBD Dumpling House, bringing its signature fire-drive cooking style to the city, while 38 Katsu is now serving premium Japanese – style katsu next to Betty’s Burgers.
Lastly, new concepts Curiosa Wine Bar, an intimate Italian-inspired wine bar around share plates and curated wines, and Stacks Sandwich Co., offering elevated sandwiches and casual grab-and-go options, round out the evolving mix of experiences across the precinct.
Coming Soon:
The former Kinn Thai site has been split into two offerings. The first will soon be home to Bocca by Frankie B's, a family-style Italian concept centred around generous, share-friendly meals served in a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Joining the space will be Yo-Bar, known for its vibrant frozen yoghurt offering and customisable desserts, adding a fun and casual sweet treat destination to the precinct.
Adding to the transformation, Oh My Papa will introduce a multi-level venue spanning two floors, complete with a rooftop bar. Set to deliver a high-energy mix of drinks, dining and late-night atmosphere, the new venue will bring an exciting day-to-night offering to Bunda Street.
These changes reflect Canberra Centre’s ongoing investment in its dining precinct, bringing together premium new venues and refreshed favourites to deliver a more diverse and elevated food experience in the heart of the city.
