Alpine Cafe

One of the local cafés in, Alpine Cafe sits in Warburton with a respectable 5-star Google rating. Like many Yarra Valley cafés, the pull here is a combination of solid coffee, considered food, and the kind of unhurried atmosphere that suits everyone from weekend escape-the-city brunchers to local regulars.

Expect quality coffee, a focused brunch menu through to early afternoon, and the kind of all-day food that suits whether you're starting a Yarra Valley drive or wrapping one up. Most stop service mid-afternoon, so plan accordingly.

Notable features include outdoor seating that takes advantage of the Yarra Valley setting and wheelchair access and accessibility features. One recent guest summed it up: "Great new little cafe just off the rail trail! Will def be a regular. Really nice coffee and food."

Alpine Cafe opens just 2 days a week — bookings well in advance are strongly advised, particularly for weekend lunch. Weekend mornings get busy from around 9am through 11am — visit earlier or post-noon for shorter waits.

You'll find Alpine Cafe at 3340 Warburton Hwy, Warburton VIC 3799, Australia. With bookings on 03 5966 2411. And full menu details on the venue's website. Worth combining with a longer drive through the Yarra Valley to break up the day.
