Step off the trail and into a little piece of Gippsland history at Platform 3854 Café, housed in the beautifully preserved former Glengarry Railway Station, built around 1883. The heritage setting alone makes this a memorable stop, whether you're passing through or making it your destination.
The café serves freshly made pastries, toasties, cakes and coffee, with options to sit in or take away. It's a welcoming spot for families too, with a playground and skate park nearby, so the kids can burn some energy while adults enjoy a quiet coffee at their own pace.
Situated directly on the Gippsland Plains Rail Trail, complete with a bike station and water fountain out front, Platform 3854 fills a practical and social role for the local community and for visitors exploring the region on two wheels or on foot. It's the kind of place that gives a small town a genuine gathering point, connecting the area's railway heritage with everyday life on the trail.
If you're riding, walking, or simply looking for a relaxed café in a characterful setting, Platform 3854 is worth the visit.
