Meal Machines Cafe & Play Centre

This is a great place for all ages! Amazing menu for a play centre, much more a restaurant than 'just a play centre', the meals weve had are all great. The smoothies alone are a meal in themselves with coconut cream and such a great range of options and can get take away too. Perfect place for a meal before or after a movie for people without kids too. Great staff with helpful and friendly energy, clean and sunny seats at the front windows. Kids have a huge play area with ball pit, book corner, toy kitchen and even a bouncy castle! The disco we went to was great fun 🥳 We found allergy awareness for my sister was spot on too with so many gluten free and dairy free options, a great range of alternative milks and even vegan hot choc! Highly recommended a visit here!

Decent play centre cafe, pretty compact though. Food is mainly gluten free so be careful with your choices if you're used to standard meals - I ordered a strawberry milkshake and it tasted quite yucky to me because it had coconut cream, but was honestly my bad for not looking closely at the menu details, and there's a reason the kids didn't finish eating the brownie bites. Chicken and chips were decent. It looked pretty gloomy inside with grey walls and only blue and white play equipment everywhere. As my toddler said "I liked the other one better because that one has colourful balls, and this one only has blue" lol. There's a separate room with a bouncy castle thing and nothing else so I don't see why anyone would sit in the tables in that room as you'd want to have visibility of the main play area. Staff also assumed we hadn't paid for the kids when we were ordering food and almost charged us again, luckily we explained once we caught on to their vague question of "any kids in the play area? And how old are they?". Overall place looks safe for kids, good amount of table and seats around with some room to move, so good use of compact space. Clean toilets. Reasonable pricing. Free 3h parking outside. Current admission prices to play area (as of Dec 2024): 1-3 years $5.50 ( Under 1 Free ) 4+ years $7.50
