Rattling Red Cafe, Tyabb

Mamma cannot believe that it’s taken this long to discover this adorable hidden gem!

Tucked away in a village just behind Tyabb Packing House, is home to a 100 year-old vintage Red Rattler Train that has been transformed into a cafe!

Climb aboard and enter your private carriage for a unique dining experience. With carriages offering booth seats as well as two-person tables.

If you would prefer to sit outside, there is decking on both sides, as well as shaded tables down on the grass next to a little playground! The playground has a little cubbyhouse, slide and ride on bikes and scooters are available for the kids to (carefully) ride around the area.

The menu offers items like pancakes, smashed avo, a range of toasties and salads plus a kids menu - Mamma’s crew love a hot dog!

There’s a great vibe in this little community village, and kids will just love the novelty of eating onboard one of these trams. As an added bonus - it lies right opposite a train line - so kids can also watch the trains go past!
