MELROSE PARK

Public BBQ

Melrose Park in Wooloowin strikes that rare balance between family functionality and genuine charm. The expansive grassy areas invite impromptu cricket matches, while mature trees provide generous shade across the well-designed playground. What sets this spot apart is its thoughtful layout - the skate park draws older kids without overwhelming the main play areas, and the covered BBQ facilities with gazebos make weekend gatherings almost effortless. The park cleverly caters to multiple age groups simultaneously, with bike paths weaving between play zones and an outdoor gym tucked discretely nearby. Clean toilets and ample parking seal the deal, though the real bonus is Picolo coffee across the road for the inevitable caffeine rescue mission. The playground equipment shows quality without being flashy, and the whole space maintains that lived-in community feel that suggests locals have claimed it as their own.
