Meal Machines Cafe & Play Centre

Just held my daughter's 8th birthday party here. I cannot thank Ellie, Chris & the staff enough for making it such a wonderful day. We had 20 kids attend with multiple parents, and the food provided was not only delicious but filled everyone up. The best part is that both adults and kids loved the platters, and it cost way less than if I self catered! Combined with the entry to the play centre, cutlery and plates provided fantastic service throughout the entire process and our own private room. This has been a fantastic birthday experience 😁👍

Our first visit with a grandchild and what an amazing experience it was. World class facility with a huge safe play area for children. Super clean and indoors. Comprehensive well priced menu. Better coffees would be difficult to find. Covid safe. Ideal for toddlers up to 6. Toilets clean and plenty to choose from. Wheelchair accessible. Plenty parking. Worthwhile a visit. All staff members extremely friendly and helpful!

Great place for the kids they had a ball. I never knew this place even existed. If you want a 5 star all day breakfast or just a burger or some chips n nuggets this is the place to be 🍳 🥓

We just had a brilliant birthday party at Meal Machines. The food was fabulous, and the staff were very easy to deal with and made the day run that much smoother.

Got these meals to try for ease with a busy everyday life. It’s hard to find something balanced, healthy and delicious. This place does not disappoint! All the food tastes like good old home cooked meals that are flavoured and cooked to perfection! And all you need to do is chuck them in the microwave! Very impressed.

I've been to Meal Machines several times. Its the perfect cafe if you have children with you.
There are so many activities for kids to keep them engaged for ages. While parents (or grandparents, etc) can enjoy a coffee or drink of your choice and sample the delicious food. And all the food is gluten free. But if you think GF means less taste, you will be pleasantly surprised. Try their cakes and cheesecakes. They are heavenly. As is all their food. I recommend the green smoothie.
All the staff are very friendly and helpful.

Always great, kids always love it! One criticism is that there are only 3 toilets and one of them has had a broken lock for months. They are aware of it as there is a sign on the door saying that it doesn't lock - probably time that got fixed!

What an amazing experience! Amazing healthy, clean eating food options to suit the whole family along with delicious treats. The mocha was the best mocha I have tasted in all of Hobart. It was clean and a fantastic space for kids of all ages to play. I was impressed that staff ensured this was also such a safe place for the younger kids to play. The layout was great, I could sit back and watch the kids from every angle while relaxing and enjoying my meal. I can't wait to go back! We stayed for hours.

We were invited to a kids party at Meal Machines. Very attentive and friendly staff, food the kids and adults both loved and very red cheeks from all the play. We all had a great time and will be back.
Oh yeah, very good coffee and delicious smoothies

Fun place to take the kids. Very quiet these days. Great food and coffee. Good atmosphere but can get very noisy when heps of kids are running around. The smiles of my kids are worth it.

100% gluten free and tastes amazing! I had a chicken and avocado focaccia toasted and it was delicious, can't wait to go back and try more from the menu. Staff were very lovely too!

The meal machines packed meals are a life saver to busy working families. We know that regardless of time constraints once home at night with kids, we will be eating healthy delicious meals. Thanks team!

I genuinely enjoyed taking my sibilings (5 & 2) to Meal machines. The equipment was appropriate fo both of them, and the food was great, if a little more expensive than other cafes. Great place for families.

Always clean, good food, fun play equipment for kids. Staff are friendly and it's a nice atmosphere. Plenty of free parking. Great for a catch up while the kids play!

Great place with a indoor playground and jumping castles and gluten free food open late on Friday nights

Meal machines is not just a great cafe its also a play park for kids and a gym for adults.

I partially can vouch for their take home meals as someone with a busy schedule these often come in handy and taste like a healthy meal always fresh and delicious.

I love bringing my 3 year old here for a treat and play. She loves it.
The staff are always friendly and helpful and the food is delicious.

Was beautiful food and service, and superb atmosphere for children. Such a nice change for when going out for dinner with a child 🙂
Ps. My steak was cooked perfectly!!

Such a great place to take the kids. It is secure and safe for younger children but also entertaining for the older children. Food is great and staff are amazing 👌

Great location, clean space and friendly staff. Although they were rushed off their feet they were attentive and apologetic for wait times. My three year old had a great time!
