Round Bird Food & Wine Merchants

A relaxed café favoured by locals in, Round Bird Food & Wine Merchants sits in Lilydale and holds a 4.4-star rating across 789 Google reviews. 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.

The venue is notable for outdoor seating that takes advantage of the Yarra Valley setting. One recent guest summed it up: "The girl that made my coffee was LOVELY! And coffee was really good, thankyou!"

Round Bird Food & Wine Merchants operates 7 days a week, giving plenty of options for fitting it into a Yarra Valley itinerary. Weekend mornings get busy from around 9am through 11am — visit earlier or post-noon for shorter waits.
