district 35, carlton north
/It’s no secret that Mamma loves a cafe/playground combo, and this one in the inner north is an absolute gem. Welcome to District 35 folks - the perfect place for your next family adventure or catch up with some friends.
This amazing local truly has everything you could need for the perfect ‘meal out with kids’ experience. Gorgeous aesthetics, indoor and undercover dining areas, delicious food, fantastic service, with a bike track and a semi-fenced playground! Yes folks, you heard right! Imagine watching the kids play while you get to sip your coffee and enjoy your smashed avo on a summer’s day - this is the experience that District 35 offers, and Mamma is absolutely here for it.
Ok - let’s chat food. Mamma loves to order the big breaky, shakshuka, smashed avo, southern fried chicken burger, chicken tacos, and the healthy bowl (on days she feels like nourishing her insides). Pair it with a turmeric latte, a delicious smoothie or a freshly pressed juice, and you’ve got yourself the perfect breaky or lunch. The kids menu is fab too - eggs on toast, nuggets or burgers will be sure to appeal to your minis.
District 35 have just introduced grab and go ice-cream choc tops and cups too - so if you’re just looking for a little pick me up for the kids (or you Mamma) to accompany your play in the park, then this is the spot for you.
Oh, and it’s also dog friendly so the whole family can come along! Mamma gives it a 10/10 - make sure you check it out.
