cowderoys dairy, st kilda

A cool cafe with an old milk bar vibe nestled in amongst the trees in the quiet part of St Kilda and plonked right next to a park and playground.

Cowderoy's Dairy has been many a mums and bubs favourite for many years, and regularly visited by Mamma before she was a mamma!  A cool cafe with an old milk bar vibe nestled in amongst the trees in the quiet part of St Kilda and plonked right next to a park and playground.  Great food and coffee, a cute outdoor area where you can still be near the kids if they're off at the park or take your goodies to go and sit on one of the park benches.

Mamma's special mention: If you want even more adventure play head to nearby Plum Garland Playground for some beachside action.

Craving something sweet? 
Check out the cake window at this place!
Such a variety of flavours to choose from! 
There's decadent choc-hazelnut expresso cakes topped with honeycomb - and traditional favourites like carrot cake and brownies.

Not to mention the delicious savoury items like their speciality burgers.  The little ones have their own 'Little Fox' menu items to choose from. As well as miniature cupcakes and sweet items.

To keep little hands busy, they supply pencils (adorably kept in little teapots) and colouring pictures.
With plenty of space, both indoors and outside, it is easy to see how this is a local (and not-so-local) favourite!

Mamma's special mention: after indulging, why not have a play down the road at the awesome Playdays?

coffee train cafe, seaford

This is one cafe that EVERYONE can enjoy - even your dog can have breakfast!

Where else can you have a dog's breakfast? Like, literally - A. Dogs. Breakfast?

Yep, this is what happens once a month at this terrific dog - and kid-friendly cafe. Bring your dog and treat him to free samples!

With a shaded, spacious courtyard - perfect for prams to fit and puppies to frolic;  an inside kids corner complete with train tracks, light up oven, tea set, books and more - it's perfect to keep all the kids (canine and human) entertained through every season.

This cafe is very cute, with its train theme running throughout. Each table is named as a train station, there are local artwork and old photographs of local train stations and trains spread throughout; as well as a bookshelf full of books based on local attraction.
Delicious food and coffee, served by wonderfully friendly staff. 

Mamma's special mention: located close to Kananook Creek Walking Trail, mamma suggests a walking adventure before or after your visit?
