GRIFFITH...
Griffith, a thriving regional capital
is fast becoming a destination for foodies.
The region grows 90% of Australia’s
rice and prunes, makes one in every
four glasses of Australian wine and
grows Australia’s sweetest navels.
Add to this significant production
of chickens, truss-tomatoes, olives,
almonds and walnuts and it is little
wonder Griffith is fast becoming a
destination for foodies.
Designed by Walter Burley
Griffin, Griffith boasts radial patterns,
parks and a beautiful tree-lined main
street, one of the longest in the
country. The shopping strip is
dominated by alfresco dining at
authentic Italian cafes serving
excellent coffee, pizza, gnocchi and
local wine. Boutique frock shops,
beauticians and shoe shops are a
further feature of the main street.
Banna Avenue is a hub of activity
during the day and lively with
couples and families out to dinner in
the evening.

Spoilt for choice it’s a vibrant cafe
strip, capturing the many cultures
of the community and featuring the
toils of the region on the table.
Affectionately known as ‘Little Italy’
60% of the population of Griffith
claim Italian heritage and traditions
such as salami making, preserving
olives and sauce days are important
family gatherings. Delicious locally
made salami, oils, jams and pickles
are available at the weekly Sunday
markets direct from the makers, or
through local outlets.
Griffith, synonymous with wine,
produce and welcoming people, is a
delightful place to spend a few days.
