Eat: Flying Brick Cider

Why have we included a cidery into our list of family-friendly activities? I hear you ask. Two reasons. Firstly, their Kids menu has something to suit even the pickiest of eaters. Secondly, Flying Brick has a massive lawn where you can lounge out on comfy beanbags while watching the kiddies play. Win, win!

Work together as a family and escape from one of Australia’s largest 3D timber mazes, before challenging yourselves in a quick round of mini-golf. There’s a playground on-site plus undercover barbeque facilities. Not keen to cook? Check out the cafe for a fabulous selection of delicious snacks.
