Shillinglaw Cafe in Eltham is a fantastic sunny day cafe for families! The big sandpit and faux grass out the back is the perfect spot for kids to run and play without annoying anyone who is kid free inside.

The menu has huge range of delicious breakfast and lunch options, and make sure you check out the pastries fridge too!

As an added bonus, on the opposite of the on-site parking is the Alistair Knox Park and just next door is Eltham Library who do a range of kid friendly activities!

The park features slides, swings, balancing beams, see-saw, monkey bars, a tunnel, bbq facilities and plenty of open lawns for a run around, so grab your order takeaway and meet your mothers group at the playground.
