Moon Rock Cafe - Tidbinbilla River

If you're visiting the CSIRO - Tidbinbilla Canberra Deep Space Centre, there is a cafe located inside. Located 24km away from its nearest competitor, the cafe is able to charge higher prices. After visiting the museum, we stopped for a late lunch consisting of basic items like coffee, soup of the day, and a BLT. The staff were friendly, but the soup could have been warmer when it arrived at our table. Overall, the food and coffee were decent but nothing extraordinary. Keep in mind that prices may be slightly higher, especially since it was a Sunday.

Nous avons déjeuner avec des plats très simples qui pour la plupart sont fait maison. C'est un peu cher peut etre l'absence se concurrence. Mais bon c'est un endroit historique avec les missions Appollo....il y a même un petit musée sur le theme de l'espace gratuit ...C'est cool de trouver ca au milieu de nulle part

Stressed out and rude stuff cannot cope with the influx of customers at lunch time. Need to either get more efficient staff or extra staff. Waited a long time to get order taken and then a long time to get served. Politely asked how the order was going a blonde lady who seems to do most of the food preparation rudely said "There is only one of me. You will have to wait. Capeesh!" I was going to fire back but thought better off writing it up on Trip Advisory. Food is also very over priced for basic food because there is no other cafes around for 30km. My advice is to avoid this place all together and bring a picnic lunch where you can sit on the lawns and enjoy the beautiful views of the giant space dishes.

Husband and I visited mid morning and decided to have a late breakfast. Tasty, hot toasted sandwiches and large, super cold milkshakes.......but the scones! YUM! Will come back again just for the scones alone. Great cafe, lovely staff.

The friendliest lady and very good coffee, plus a great view from the terrace outside. I definitely recommend it.
