A chain of well-known Café’s in Sydney and Melbourne has decided to open a smaller version of their larger shops in Canberra. The name of the Café is CupNBake.

The café in Canberra will be based in Manuka.

The Melbourne and Sydney Café’s have an attached-on site industrial bakery that produces all of their bread, pastries, pies and cakes on site. In Canberra the company’s bakery is based in Fyshwick and does not have a café attached to it. The bakery in Fyshwick operates from 0200 (2am) through to 0900 (9am) daily – 7 days a week

The café in Manuka will operate from 0700 (7am) -1600 (4pm) – 7 days a week.

This version will NOT have the bakery on site, however this café will be receiving all of their required bakery products from their own bakery based in Fyshwick (run by the same company – but at a different location).
