This park has not come up in my radar before despite its location, and what a shame that was!!!…read moreI managed to visit on a day off and sunny winter Melbourne day with the dog. Amazing great space and there's access to the water for the water loving dogs to dip in and out as they please. There's a few different sport zones ( soccer field, golf ) so you have to be mindful of visiting when there's a sporting event/ match. Otherwise it's a free run for the dog. There is also a no dog golf zone so watch out for stray golf balls of around this zone. Bike path runs next to the river and lots of benches to sit on. Love it and I will definitely visit more!

We jokingly refer to this neighbourhood park as "our other garden". The Yarraville Gardens…read morefeature lush and beautifully landscaped grounds with plenty of room for recreational activities. A mix of native and European trees line the terraced, upper portion of the park that abuts Hyde Street. There are some lovely flower beds, a grassy field to picnic in, plenty of BBQ sites, and a great adventure playground for the kiddies. As you descend through the park down to Docklands Hwy you pass through several reserves: The largest one is reserved for after work runners and kid-o soccer games, while the lower two reserves which face Docklands Hwy are for doggies (and summer cricketers desperately avoiding poop piles). I love the dog park here: This is a safe, secure, and very bucolic place to bring your pooch, and I've never had a safety problem in the three years I've been visiting with my dog. In the past year food trucks have been lining up on Somerville Road and Hyde Street most evenings. Mr. Burger tends to out at least three times a week and we also see White Guy does Thai, Taco Truck, Dude Food, and Los Diablos. Generally, Friday and Sunday nights are the best time to catch a truck, but there is usually at least one (and sometimes up to seven) present. Awesomely, there is a rarely a long wait at any of the trucks. There are hipsters and cool kids in Yarraville, but this ain't Brunswick and the crowds are still mild here. Grab some grab on a warm night and make a picnic of it. Just avoid the dog reserve if you want to eat unmolested by hungry canines!

Throw in BBQ facilities, playground, dog park, and a nightly lineup of Food Trucks and you have yourselves the total package. The council has limited the food truck frenzy due to rubbish issues, but you can still find up to 10 trucks here on any one night. Perfect for an impromptu picnic that you don't need to plan much for!

For owners of flighty, naughty puppies, this park is a god send. Completely fenced in and safe for…read moreall canines, it's a great place for doggies to socialise. There are even bags provided for your pup's discretion. The only downside is the proximity to Macaulay Road/Boundary Road, where things could quickly turn catastrophic for any escapees. But so far those gates have done and excellent job and my dogs remain safe and social.

Great to let the dog loose and run around for a very social time as there are always many dogs here…read moreon the weekend.

Whether your for the wolf or the hound it doesn't really matter. This quaint little cafe, recently…read moreopened, is offering good coffee and a small hipster inspired menu. The staff are friendly and efficient. There's little space to sit inside and outside. The majority of people were like us, the coffee commuters. Grabbing a quick caffeine fix before taking on peak hour train crowds. This time for something different we stayed at dined in like fancy, job free folk. Highlights are the open spaces, interseting artwork and Dr Marty's crumpets

I appreciate a spacious outdoor bench seat due to often having a friend with a pram or a puppy. It expands the space of the cafe nicely. The staff are clearly passionate about their venture here. The service was far superior to other locals in charming casual friendliness and speed. The menu is basic but has interesting flavor combinations - I will be back to sample more. The coffee is for retail sale which is an extra drawcard. Wolf and Hound has found their little niche in a cafe populated area with coffee connoisseur options, not overwhelming people with too much menu choice and feeling refreshing design wise. Nothing is cluttered or complicated and I appreciate this! I most certainly will be back across town for this comfort.
