Railway Wine in Highett offers a warm, moody vibe within its indoor setting while the beer garden out back is perfect for sunny days with the kids. Come for a glass of wine (or two) and some delicious food, while the kids play on the cubby-cum-climbing frame.
Cancel your plans mammas, because we’ve found a wine bar complete with wood fired pizzas, a kids menu and **pause for dramatic effect** outdoor play space!

Boasting an impressive wine list (which also includes beers, cocktails and non alcoholic options), patrons are able to order food from Railway’s sister restaurant next door, Teo’s.
There are no wrong choices when it comes to wine and carbs, but this Mamma‘s go to order is a glass of Shiraz and a plate of spaghetti carbonara, liberally adorned with crispy guanciale.
Since this is a local for Mamma’s family, the little ones usually go between ordering the kids margherita pizza and spaghetti bolognese (but classics like chicken and chips are also available for those with discerning taste buds). When it comes to pizzas, there is plenty to choose from, including gluten free and vegan options, though little Mister can never go past a pepperoni.
Open from late afternoon onwards, the kids can be fed and the wine can be drunk all before bath and bedtime - what a win!

Mamma’s special mention
Head to Sir William Fry Reserve down the road if the kids still have a little energy to run off.

Pizza and beer, what more do you need?! Mamma’s answer… Two Rupee’s delicious and fragrant Sri Lankan pan rolls - curried meat or vegetables wrapped in a crepe and fried until brown and crispy. They were sooo good in fact, that mamma’s 4 year old didn’t even care that they were a little spicy.
So grab the kids and head over to Two Rupees for an easy last minute meal or to watch the footy on one of the many screens dotted throughout the brewery… oh, and they’re dog friendly too so don’t forget to bring the pooch!

Mamma's special mention:
Once you’ve had your fill of beer and pizza, head to Clayton’s Heatherton “Troll” Park to run off some of that energy and vanquish some beasties.
