Echoey, but it's a lovely fun and relaxed atmosphere.

There is one very cool Combi Bus to play in! 

🏃 Safety for children who might run ✅

There is a good amount of space to play and run inside. The outside industrial Street is not overly busy. 

Pickles on a pizza??? YASSSS please!!! The pizzas are terrific, but you NEED to try the callamari and the loaded sweet potato fries.

Hands down, the best hot chocolate we have ever had EVER. The campfire hot chocolate is served with a freshly roasted marshmallow and cherry wood smoke. 

All other hot chocolate is officially ruined- Mork or nothing! 

Menu: 

There are delightful house made pastries and cakes. Our favourite was the pistachio and yuzu thingy!

Situated on a busy Olinda road, I wouldn't recommend bringing your sugar fuelled runner for a sit-down dessert here. Get takeaway and head to the Botanical gardens up the road. 

"That brownie was really nice and soft warmed up." 

I strongly recommend a vegan chilli hot chocolate!

Even though it is very busy on the weekends, it's not too loud.

This place was WOW. 

It is far enough removed from the main road thanks to the nursery out the front to be safe for your runner and the bakehouse goods are nothing short of EPIC. 

They mill their own flour onsite! 

Menu: 

While I do not have a copy of their whole menu, there is BREAD, pies, tarts and of course the tastiest sammiches on that side of the Westgate Bridge.

The outdoor space offers a good area to play, but the cafe is located in busy Footscray. It is by far the best runner friendly and wheelchair friendly cafe in the area. 

"So. Much. Halloumi! I wish it had a tomato relish on it though." -Lovely hipster lady.

"Bacon was awesome. They always do a great job at Rudy's." -Lovely hipster man. 

The hipsters are correct. The DO always serve a fantastic brunch and a perfect coffee at Rudy's. Whenever we happen to be in the area, we go here.
