The coffee is great- it's so convenient to get them from the window. I also like to dine in because the layout of the restaurant allows tables to relax and talk. Every meal I've eaten has been delicious. And I love that it's opposite a playground so the kids can play within sight.

Wonderful layout, cheerful front staff, reasonable prices and great choices. Brilliant, differently coming again. Thank you for starting my day off with smiles and joy �

Over the two decades or so that Rocksalt has been at Hawker it has transformed from a fine dining evening restaurant to an all day modern Australian cafe/restaurant. It has a nice outdoor area under a pergola in the Hawker "village square" which works well for much of the year. The indoor seating provides a cosy alternative in winter but is a bit dark and lacks any distinct character. Like many places the breakfast menu is the best offering but is not available at lunch time except on Sundays. Fortunately my most recent visit was on a Sunday. The quality of the food has varied over the years as owners and chefs changed. It did go down a couple of years ago but the current team seems to be trying hard and it is much improved. The Adore coffee is well made and consistently good, but not quite in the really top bracket.

Coffee is great and possibly the best Eggs Benedict in Canberra!

A good come back. Rocksalt at Hawker was one of the top restaurants in Canberra almost 10 years ago and since the change in ownership and head chef, it has gone down hill. It has again changed ownership and head chef probably last 1-2 years and customers seem to have returned.

It was 80% full on a Saturday night in a very quiet suburb which wasn't a bad effort. What really surprised us is the generosity of the serving without compromise in quality. I was almost full after a big garlic bread and a big serve of beautifully deep fried zucchini flowers. Luckily I ordered a light nicely cooked fish of the day for main.

The decoration was modern and service was fine.

Although the food still wasn't as delicate as what it was 10 years ago, it still has potential to become one of the top restaurants.

I have never had a bad breakfast or coffee from rocksalt. I have a fair few allergies and they are always more than happy to accommodate. Double thumbs up!

Lambs brains. The lambs brains at Rocksalt are lovely. Not too fatty and not too try. The crumbed outside is just right.
It would be nice with a white sauce, but the crispy bacon and nuts is just fine.

Fabulous breakfast at Rocksalt. I had the chance to experience breakfast at Rocksalt last month and I have to say it was fabulous. Great selection to choose from for breakfast with all the usual favourites plus a few extra special dishes - I chose the pesto, mushroom and bocconcini melt which was to die for (see picture). The coffee was great, and the service fantastic.

Consistently good meals and service. A regular favourite ‘go to’ cafe for catch up with family and friends. Both indoor and outdoor seating and pet friendly for outdoor dining.

Great local venue and a nice place for breakfast or lunch. Recommend the fritters or hot cakes. Can get busy at times so allow for that.

We just had lunch at Rocksalt. I had the Steak Sandwich and my husband had the pulled pork enchilada. The steak Sandwich was great. The steak was thick, well cooked and easy to eat. My husband said his Enchilada was lovely as well. Wait staff were lovely. Food and drinks are reasonably priced. Will go there again

Really nice coffee and delicious food. The takeaway menu is fantastic value (thank you for that it's a blessing) and the dine in menu is excellent too. I've lived in Hawker for a few years now and a number of the front of house staff have been there all this time which has to mean it's a great place to work. If you're in the area and this isn't your local - it should be!
