Red Shed

Great view, but everything seems to gave changed over the past several months. New staff, new (but less impressive) menu, new process for ordering (used to be friendly and efficient table service, now it's ordering at the counter). On several different visits, the food we ordered wasn't available (they'd 'run out', before midday). It was even hard to get a piece of toast! And now they close at 2pm. I'll get my views elsewhere.

Had a great experience, the staff were friendly and the spaghetti marinara was amazing for lunch. Highly recommended.

A Hidden Gem in Canberra – Red Shed I recently had the absolute pleasure of attending a function at Red Shed in Canberra, and I was completely blown away. This place is truly one of Canberra’s best-kept secrets — a charming hidden gem with a stunning atmosphere and view that instantly makes you feel welcome, relaxed, and inspired. From the moment I arrived, I knew it was somewhere special. I honestly can’t wait to host my own event here one day. The space is stylish yet cosy, beautifully tucked away, and perfect for any occasion. Now, a special shoutout must go to Matt, who made the best lemon lime and bitters I’ve ever had — and trust me, I’ve had a few! It’s a simple drink, but getting that perfect ratio of zingy lime to sweet and bitter is a rare art, and he absolutely nailed it. The team at Red Shed were next-level lovely. Zoe, Alice, Camilla, and Dominic — what a dream team! They are genuinely warm, thoughtful, and perfectly suited to hospitality. Their energy, smiles, and attention to detail made me feel so well looked after and added a really personal touch to the whole experience. And to Polly, the manager — thank you for creating such a welcoming and memorable space. You’ve built something really special with a team that clearly loves what they do. I left Red Shed feeling like I’d stumbled across something truly special. I’m already planning to bring my family and friends to showcase this beautiful place — and I know they’ll love it just as much as I do. Highly, highly recommend. 💫

The food and view are lovely. I didn't appreciate the attitude of the staff who worked hard to rush me out even though I arrived within hours. It felt like it was an imposition to order food 35 minutes before the kitchen closed. Management may need to address this.
