Food scene
Grazeland is open only on weekends but is a wonderful place to try a myriad of cuisines! Definitely recommend if you’re looking for dinner not too far away (driving distance) and want to try some different foods. It’s under cover but outdoors - so wear warm clothes in the winter.

Vernon street has a few eateries. We highly recommend Motorino for pizza and pasta. Or Dukkah is also a fab restaurant! There is also a fish and chips shop, a cafe open mornings only and a small grocer/bottle shop for the essentials.

Neighbourhoods
Yarraville is a charming little pocket in Melbournes inner west. About 10 minutes drive from us. It has fantastic eateries, pubs, cafes and a cute little old school cinema. If you have any time to kill highly recommend a wander around yarraville and maybe even a movie and a sneaky choc top. They have ‘not your average’ choc top flavours so don’t think it’s just another cinema and choc top. I will also vouch for ‘goje’ frozen yoghurt! Amazing!
