About Tancks Corner

Set in the picturesque hills of Yarrambat, Tancks Corner pairs country-kitchen brunch with the quiet charm of an old-school post office. Morning regulars settle along the weather-shielded verandah, where overhead heaters, pull-down blinds, and knee blankets keep the chill off long before the first flat white lands. The kitchen puts a playful spin on weekend classics—swapping predictable hash browns for golden, crispy baked potatoes under velvety hollandaise, or topping towering ricotta hotcakes with cream and fluffy pink fairy floss. Inside, shelves lined with local candles and pot plants give way to relaxed tables where orders arrive fast, generous, and piping hot.

  • All-weather verandah seating: Overhead heaters, blinds, and knee blankets keep the outdoor verandah comfortable year-round.
  • Inventive morning menu: Brunch plates feature clever twists, like crispy baked potatoes on eggs benedict and fairy floss over hotcakes.
  • Post office and general store charm: The space doubles as a working local post office stocked with artisanal gifts, candles, and plants.

  • Creative Twists on Classic Brunch

    Classic brunch favorites receive imaginative culinary touches, from fairy floss garnishes on hotcakes to crispy baked potatoes replacing hash browns on eggs benedict.

    Love the twist of crispy baked potatoes instead of hash browns. Also the house made hollandaise was perfect

Before you head over

Practical advice on parking, seating comfort, and table choices for your visit.

  • Prepare for an Unpaved Parking Area

    The on-site parking area is unpaved and can become potholed or muddy during wet weather. Plan foot-traffic footwear accordingly if visiting after rain.

  • Embrace Heated Verandah Seating

    The verandah features outdoor heaters, protective blinds, and complimentary leg blankets, making alfresco seating a comfortable option even in brisk weather.

  • Choose Verandah Tables for Lower Noise

    The indoor dining room can become bustling and loud during peak weekend rushes, so opt for the covered porch if you prefer a quieter conversation.
