About Cocoa Moon Cafe

Perched along the Yarra River in Warrandyte, Cocoa Moon Cafe serves up hearty brunch staples surrounded by vintage motoring curios. Inside, die-cast model cars and manual espresso machines clutter the shelves, while the dog-friendly street patio looks out across the river walking tracks. Locals head straight for the brisket benny—tender pulled beef and soft-poached eggs balanced over crisp potato rosti—or grab a Melbourne magic before an unhurried riverside stroll.

  • Brisket Benny: Tender pulled beef and poached eggs served atop crispy potato rosti.
  • Dog-Friendly Riverfront Patio: Outdoor tables welcome dogs right across from the Yarra River trail.
  • Vintage Motoring Memorabilia: Eclectic dining space filled with die-cast cars, vintage tees, and coffee gear.
