Café Melba @ Mediapolis

You’ve likely been to this easy, breezy, laidback Aussie-style eatery in the East but this one is tucked away in the heart of Mediapolis. Food wise, they’ve expanded beyond just Aussie flavours with local favourites like Beef Rendang, Chicken Tikka Masala on the menu. For the little ones, the kid-friendly set menu includes the usual crowd pleasers: pancakes, pasta, pizza and chicken schnitzel with a choice of fruit juice or milk and a scoop of ice-cream. Plus, they’ve got a whole bunch of distractions, a bouncy castle set up every weekend and public holiday (weather permitting), a giant tic-tac-toe set-up for the young and old to play together and ample space to scoot around. If you’re planning on becoming a regular, sign up for their Kid’s Club Gold Card, eight stamps nets a free adult meal, while 15 stamps opens up a number of ongoing perks and free meals.
