EAT, DRINK & PLAY
Eighty/Twenty Food
Focusing on the 80/20 approach amongst all their cafes, Eighty/Twenty Food in Coombs is all about enjoyable, healthy food. Serving fresh, wholesome dishes as well as nutrient-rich treats, get the best of both worlds with the menu and leave that food guilt behind!
Morning Dew
Get your morning caffeine fix from Morning Dew café in Denman Prospect. Serving speciality Ona Coffee as well as a light breakfast and lunch menu, it serves as the perfect neighbourhood café.
Honeysuckle
Who says you have to head into the city for your regular catch-up? Honeysuckle in Denman Prospect offers local wines and craft beer with a delicious pub-style menu in a vibrant setting.
T-Bone
A new venue planning to open its doors in Coombs in February, T-Bone is set to be a wonderful addition to the Molonglo Valley. While we don’t know too much about it yet, their website tells us they will be the busiest pub in town.
Stromlo Leisure Centre
Providing an aquatic and recreation centre, Stromlo Leisure Centre is all about getting fit and healthy while feeling good doing it. They have a great swimming pool providing a range of different classes as well as group fitness, personal training and specialised youth and elderly classes in the gym. As part of the Y NSW, every membership helps them fund a range of important youth and community programs.
Ridgeline Park Playground
In the heart of Denman Prospect, Ridgeline Park Playground has been designed for all ages and stages, with play equipment including slides, swings and a flying fox. A great place for family and friends to gather, the park also features a picnic area and walking trails.
Ruth Park Playground
Coomb’s newest playground, Ruth Park Playground caters for all ages and features modern play equipment and a BBQ and picnic area. Think a bird’s nest tower, pod structures, swings, slides and shade structures. Bound to keep the kids entertained for hours, it’s a great place to spend a sunny weekend.

A NOTE FROM A LOCAL…
One of Canberra’s newest and upcoming regions, Molonglo Valley has been designed for families, with great playgrounds and leisure facilities, cafes and restaurants and of course beautiful homes. Whether it’s a morning coffee from Eighty/Twenty before a dip in the Stromlo Leisure Centre’s pool or a beer with mates at Honeysuckle pub, I love everything the area has to offer.
