Resturants / Cafes open on Good Friday?

Icepoet 15 April 2014 15 April 2014 5

It’s my birthday on Good Friday this year and I was hoping to catch a movie and go out for lunch with friends to celebrate.

I know that the cinemas will be open, but I was wondering if anyone knew of a good restaurant or café in either Civic or Woden that will be open for lunch on Good Friday?

Thanks all.

Just a bite mawson is open, but only early. Guru coffee mawson is open from 8am

Thanks Archreason. I ended up booking tickets for the movies at Dendy, so will try and find something open in Civic today. I noticed the Supabarn is open, so hopefully a few other places might be too.

Fyshwick Markets Fish shop that has the fish and chips takeaway/eat here place is open on Good Friday heard the advertisment this morning.

I seem to recall that in previous years the only fish you could get purchase during Good Friday was raw fish because the takeaway/eatery section was closed.

Very upset nobody is offering a seafood lunch on Good Friday like the Belco Labor Club has on Christmas Day.
