MCNISH DINOSAUR PARK RESERVE

Public BBQ

McNish Dinosaur Park Reserve manages that peculiar Australian feat of combining prehistoric creatures with weekend sport in suburban Yarraville. The dinosaur sculptures scattered about create an oddly charming backdrop for your barbecue, though I suspect the Triceratops would have strong opinions about your sausage technique. The tennis courts next door provide convenient entertainment should the kids tire of roaming among the fibreglass fossils. It's quintessentially inner-west Melbourne - practical, slightly quirky, and refreshingly unpretentious. The facilities are perfectly adequate, including those aforementioned toilets, making it a solid choice for families seeking something a bit different from the usual suburban barbecue experience.
