watermarc
You’ve got to visit WaterMarc in Greensborough at least once, and when you do, you’ll be back again and again! This massive Multi Activity Regional Centre has something for everyone.

mables jones
If there’s a café in Greensborough that ticks all of Mamma’s boxes, it’s Mable Jones. This family-friendly spot welcomes little ones with colouring pencils and paper before you even order your coffee, making it perfect for kids. Just a short drive from the newly redeveloped Partington's Flat Reserve Playground, the spacious café is filled with natural light, greenery, and an accessible ramp. The menu offers fantastic vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options, and Mamma loved the Colouring-In kids’ menu that kept the little ones happily entertained. Mamma enjoyed Dippy Eggs and Soldiers, followed by pancakes with ice cream, maple syrup, and rainbow sprinkles, while drinks and service were top-notch. The whole experience left everyone feeling refreshingly upbeat!
