This is yet another of the little places we stopped at during our recent Canberra foray.
Café Della Piazza
19 Garema Place
Canberra City
02 6248 9711
The mission was to find an iced coffee to both soothe and invigorate in the late morning which has already become sweltering hot.
Iced coffees can be funny. They should be slightly bitter yet refreshing, and become sweet and thick by the end of the drink. In the USA an iced coffee is simply the disgusting combination of coffee and ice cubes, but for me it should also contain ice cream, cream and maybe some syrup or something dusted on top.
Cafe Della Piazza is a small café in Canberra’s CBD nestled amongst a couple of similar places. It is relatively nondescript so we were lucky to select it from amongst the others. Its nice to sit outside and infinitely better than eating in the Westfield only minutes away.
I was delighted to find that the iced coffee was fabulous! I need not have steeled myself for disappointment as it was everything I wanted, with the addition of coffee dusted on top for a bitter contrast with the cream. The iced chocolate was also scrumptious, thick and very sweet.
