Rowa Café — Restaurant in District of Belconnen

Rowa Café is a cozy little spot nestled in Westfield Belconnen, offering a pleasant escape from the lively atmosphere. I stopped by recently for a quick coffee and pastry, and while it’s not the place for a lavish brunch, it delivers on simplicity and comfort.

Food was lovely though and everyone was friendly. Just group the items a...
