Cafe Wild
Sit down at one of our cafés and enjoy modern Australian cuisine. Cafe Wild in the Visitor Plaza offers a gorgeous view of the Savannah Lake and Primate Islands, home to Spider Monkeys and Lemurs.


The Waterhole
The Waterhole Café located halfway round the Zoo circuit offers at a range of delectable food items to enjoy whilst overlooking animals such as Barbary Sheep, Blackbuck and Addax! The kids can have fun in the African waterhole themed water play area featuring hippo and elephant sculptures. The waterhole is sure to be a popular stop during your Zoo adventure!
NOTE: Due to the location of this café near the water play area, we encourage guests to bring a towel.
