Mother’s Day High Tea @ Rivers of Yarrambat

Can’t wait until the actual day to start celebrating? Or maybe you just want to avoid the madness of the second Sunday in May? Rivers in Yarrambat is hosting a special ‘two-weeks-out’ Mother’s Day High Tea that is perfect for families who like to beat the rush. Nestled in a beautiful lakeside setting, this is far more than just a cafe; it’s a full-on lifestyle destination where you can shop for home decor, get a treatment, and then sit down for a cracking afternoon tea. The spread is legendary—heaps of local produce, dainty sandwiches, and cakes that’ll have you coming back for seconds. It’s a much more relaxed vibe than the CBD high teas, making it ideal if you’ve got younger kids who might find the Town Hall a bit too stuffy. Plus, you can have a wander around the lake afterwards to walk off the scones and feed the ducks. It’s a hidden gem of the northern suburbs and a great way to show Mum some love without the usual Mother’s Day crowds. Absolute winner for a lazy Sunday afternoon.
