About Warran Glen Cafe

Tucked behind a lush Warrandyte plant nursery, Warran Glen Cafe turns brunch into a leafy garden escape by the creek. Grab a seat out on the balcony for a morning flathead fish or a breakfast board, while the sound of trickling water takes the edge off the morning rush. Parents appreciate the breather—the kids' menu pairs with table colouring and an outdoor wooden play train, plus bags of duck feed available right at the counter for visits to the pond. A boardwalk meanders back through homewares, potted greenery, and gift displays, making it easy to stretch a flat white and warm scones into a slow afternoon.

  • Creek Setting & Duck Feeding: Guests can pick up duck food at the counter to feed waterbirds along the running creek and nursery pond.
  • Family-Friendly Play Area: Young children stay occupied with an outdoor wooden train and table colouring packs while parents dine.
  • Nursery & Garden Grounds: Balcony seating overlooks landscaped greenery, connecting directly to nursery paths and gift shop stalls.

  • Creekside Duck Feeding Experience

    A creek and waterside boardwalk allow diners to buy specialized duck feed right at the counter for wildlife feeding.

    You can also buy feed at the café to feed the ducks, which is a lovely little touch.

  • Outdoor Wooden Train Play Area

    Young children stay happily entertained on a dedicated wooden train structure while parents enjoy coffee and food.

    Our children were instantly drawn to the outdoor wooden train, where they played hide and seek while we enjoyed our coffee and treats.
