The men allegedly attacked the stores armed with knifes, smashing doors and stealing cash.
At about 9.45pm the men smashed through the locked front glass door at Kingsley's Chicken on Rae Street.
While one man guarded three customers still inside, the chicken shop's staff fled out of a side door.
The other man then allegedly went into the kitchen to steal money from the float and three mobile phones left behind by staff.
The men then left in a white Hyundai hatchback, before driving over to the Canberra Cellars 'Bottle-O' on the corner of Luxton and Josephson Street, Belconnen to continue their attack.
The two men entered the bottle shop, stealing cash and cigarettes from the attendant.
They then drove away in the direction of Southern Cross Drive.
One of the men was wearing a black and white skull face mask, a blue hooded jumper, grey track pants and white shoes.
The other man was also wearing a black and white skull face mask with a light blue baseball cap, a black hooded jumper with a white motif on the front, black track pants and black shoes.
Any witnesses or anyone with information is urged to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or via act.crimestoppers.com.au.
