Blue Train Cafe, overlooking the Yarra from its vantage point above Southbank, is something of a Melbourne institution.
Of course, it's changed with the times and now sports a strikingly modern, industrial look - with splashes of colour throughout its sprawling space.
In fact, there's enough space for 500 - so when in "Entire Venue" mode for a ...

This refers to the Bar Area within Blue Train's sprawling and colourful main dining space. A good choice if you've got a mostly standing-style function for a slightly larger group than usual.

The Main Dining space at Blue Train Cafe is worlds away from the old restaurant from yesteryear; it's all high ceilings, an industrial modern Melbourne aesthetic, with Scandinavian furniture throughout.
There's also a healthy dose of cheery colour, making the Main Dining space a good pick for raucous celebratory family dinners, as well as corpora...

The Alleyway at Blue Train Cafe is located outside the popular Southbank institution yet within the Southgate complex.
High ceilings above, somewhat removed from the hustle and bustle inside, and plenty of room to spill out into the space beyond after dark. There's room for 100.
