Sat outside to start in the streaming sunshine to enjoy drinks and snacks then moved inside for lunch. Table and coffee service very quick and manager constantly asking if we needed anything extra. We appreciated the friendly staff and management attentiveness. The coffee was the. Est coffee I ever had and a large choice of reasonably priced beautiful meal from an very adequate menu. Situated with a great view over and the best park that the kids can play for every age group, growing cafe is the perfect venue to catch up with friends..
This lovely little café is a true hidden little gem. Beautiful surrounds and great park for children however it is the service and locally produced food and onsite baking that ticks all the boxes for me. Great selections to choose from and the staff are lovely. This place won't be a hidden gem for long!

I attended an event for Little Growlings 3rd birthday celebration. It was well organised and featured their whole menu. I sampled a large range of dishes and they were absolutely delicious. The friendliness from the owner and rest of the team was very welcoming too.
The offerings for children are an absolute stand out too. The playground outdoors is a large hit (and enclosed), but the cafe offerings are fantastic with a dedicated books and colouring station too.
I absolutely highly recommend a visit to Little Growling Cafe. They tick all the boxes when dining out with friends or family.

This is such a lovely cafe that is very children and family friendly, especially due to the playground right outside the cafe. The interior is very inviting and a relaxing place to chill out and enjoy some coffee and brunch.
I was lucky enough to be a part of their birthday celebration for reaching 3 years so they provided a fantastic spread. Started off with some coffees which were on point then there was a huge variety of milkshake flavours which were sweet and colourful. Definitely was attracted to all the pastries, muffins and sweets which looked and tasted great. Then we had a collection of sandwiches which were so tasty, my favourite being the pesto chicken and curry filling. Food continued with breakfast dishes of pancakes, smashed avocado, chicken and halloumi salad, four different types of burgers served with fries. Honestly can't fault anything about this place as they clearly put in the effort to present their food and drinks well while also incorporating simple but also delicious flavours.
Even though this cafe isn't local to me it is definitely worth the drive.
Growling cafe has really friendly staff and a great atmosphere. The food is varied with plenty of healthy brunch options as well as muffins cookies and pancakes!
I enjoyed the avo smash and the eggs were poached really well.
It’s a great place to take the kids as there is a massive playground!
This cafe is extremely wholesome and clean! The people and staff are so friendly and the food presentation is super on point! We ordered a variety of dishes! Everything was packed with flavour, delicately and carefully cooked! It was a fab experience! Highly recommend
Invited to breakfast, Little Growling cafe is a humble cafe with an amazing playground for children. The cafe is spacious, lit with lots of natural light and has indoor and outdoor seating. The menu is simple but done well. We tried a cheese toastie, avo smash and the growling breakfast. They couldn't do poached eggs on the day we visited so we were offered fried instead. Good alternative however one of the eggs was a tad over cooked (not a big thing). My daughter had a blast running and playing around the playground.
Would definitely recommend this place if you have little ones.
Fantastic little place we go once a week during the day
Great food tea coffee fabulously friendly owners. Our favourite place. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
This is the perfect place to take kids plenty of room for them to play and a really good kids menu.
Having said that the adult meals are really yummy too the pancakes were fluffy and the little growler salad with fruit and goats cheese was a perfect combination.
Totally worth the drive I would also recommend trying the extravagant toasties.
This place is located within a lands sales centre and it may be hard to locate at first. But it was totally worth it. Definitely an amazing place to go for breakfast or brunch. Their toasties are amazing and so are the shakes.
We tried the modern family toastie, chicken burger and salad. Their shoe string fries are also crispy and delish. Their rochers monster shake is really monstrous.
They have an external kids play area and is family friendly. Would definitely recommend this place.
They also offer catering and party/functions offering.
We are pretty lucky to have this cafe in our backyard...
Have had many coffees here but today stayed for breakfast and it did not disappoint. The toastie was delicious as were the overnight oats. Staff are always super friendly.
Very child friendly cafe too.
We have been here lots of times. A good cafe in Tarneit with a very simple menu. It’s a perfect spot to bring your kids as they have a play area. Coffee is really good!
Enjoyed our meal, burgers had a lot of sauce which I really like! Very busy day so there was a wait for food but that was ok, kids explored the play area which is a little dated but still fun. Some of our meal items were forgotten and adjustments (e.g no onion on burger) forgotten but all in all a really friendly family atmosphere and very kind staff who did apologise for the busy day and errors.
This place never disappoints us and always have something different. Tried almost everything on their menu including their Mumbai toasty.. very good, special mention to pistachio raspberry croissant which we tried today, loved it!
Great inclosed little cafe and park. Unfortunately every time we are there the outside park is full of rubbish and the bins are overflowing. But the coffee is always great and the staff are lovely 😊
Nice and cozy atmosphere. Service is great, food and coffee is of good quality.
Have returned with my parents and we enjoyed a beautiful breakfast together.
Small Cafe, we were lucky to get a seat for a quick coffee on a busy Sunday morning. Very nice coffee. Didn't order food but everything we saw on other tables looked great so looking to come back for food some time
This cafe located in a beautiful place near a creek.They have an open play area outside which is fenced where your kids can play while you're enjoying your coffee!Very family friendly, even you can arrange a birthday party there. Totally loved ot. Customer service is also awesome. Coffee is average though.
Came for brunch on the weekend and absolutely loved the cafe! Great food, good menu options and the coffee was amazing!
Fantastic addition to the area, look forward to coming back and extra bonus they are dog friendly so perfect place to stop with your four legged friend!
Recently I ordered two grazing boxes from the Tarneit store for my son's birthday. We got chicken sliders and cold veg sandwiches. They were so delicious and the presentation was very pretty and most of all clean and neat. The sliders were a hit even my husband complimented them (p.s. he is someone who rarely compliments on food). The girl I dealt with made the process so easy for me with prompt responses both via phone calls and emails. I have dined in at this store too and must also say that it is such a little gem in the west that you must visit if you want to enjoy a cuppa and a good meal with a good view out the back too. Will definitely be coming back and recommending to others :)
