Come and experience Moon Rabbit. We’re reimagining hospitality by putting people and the planet first.
We launched Moon Rabbit in March 2018 to create practical training opportunities for young adults with additional learning needs.
Bridge To Work is a tailored work-readiness program with classroom-based training, ongoing support and practical placement at Moon Rabbit.
We also wanted to create an income stream to support our community programs that are currently underfunded, such as Laneway Lunches.
Visit the cafe
With great service, friendly staff and excellent food, we are an environmentally innovative social-enterprise café brought to you by not-for-profit organisation Bridge Darebin, which has been serving the Darebin community since 1982.
Our menu celebrates seasonal, local produce. We love using every part of an ingredient, whether that’s adding whole strawberries (tops included) to our smoothies, saving bread-loaf ends to make breadcrumbs and caramel-slice bases, not peeling the vegies that make up our scrumptious soups, or charring onion skins to make delicious burnt-onion dust. Everything else goes into enrich360 Food Waste Dehydrator that converts any unavoidable food waste onsite and overnight into nutrient-rich organic fertiliser.
We have plenty of tasty gluten-free, nut-free, vegetarian and vegan options, too!
We have two courtyards, undercover dining and a sandpit play area for children.
