Mini Train and Mini Golf Cafe / Yarralumla Play Station

This place has a character. It's has oldish design and dimly lit. The food is nice. All kids enjoy chips with different dipping sauces.
There is a play corner for little ones. Also, kids like sitting at different tables as each table has different chairs or even armchairs so it is entertaining to try different ones.
One of the reasons we went to the cafe a couple of time is because there is a mini train operating. My son loves trains so he can ride without stopping all day long. If it's not too cold you can also go to the playground across the road for a break from the train rides or otherwise stay at the cafe.
I am rating this place as 3 stars since I wouldn't have chosen to go there if there wasn't a mini train.

If you want a cup of milk for $5.50 then get a chocolate milkshake here. Was looking forward to a refreshing milkshake after a lovely swim, and got a disappointingly SMALL cup of frothed up milk.

This place does the best kids parties. Stress free fun for kids and parents with party hosts taking care of the food and entertainment

My daughter had her 6th birthday party here. The hosts were excellent (Dani) and the young man on the train was great with the kids. Definitely be back for another party.

Had our son's party there. Really disappointing. Not cheap and our 'hosts' were bored and disinterested. They had no clue what was going on and often disappeared. When I raised it with the manager in an email I got no response. Says a lot, really. Avoid.

We held our end of your celebration at YPS. Can't thank them enough for the service they provided. Anything we requested they were more than happy to accommodate. It was a great event with the help from Vince, Jason and his staff. Thank you again.

Has been renovated and changed since I last went. Restaurant very good and priced well. Kids will love the train and petting yard.

Brilliant place for a kids birthday. The carriages are so cute and the party hosts are energetic and helpful. My only complaint is the extra charge for parents accompanying kids into the farm area. It’s really quite strange. Especially for children under 5. Doesn’t make sense to me that only 2 parents can go for free. Makes for an awkward situation. Also the lack of toilets on site.

A fun day for my little guy. Quite pricey and I have only ever been able to get deep fried foods like chips and nuggets when attending the cafe. The animals seem well looked after although I always leave feeling a little sorry for them? The grounds definitely need some more looking after but there seems to be trades building etc. So this could be improved soon.

Great place to take family and friends staff are always welcoming mini train/golf and farm where else in Canberra can you get such luxurys as thisTop marks to all who have worked hard to make this spectacular place possible Thank you YPS

$40 for a train ride and farm animals for my toddler, 1yo and myself. Good experience for kids but too expensive, the zoo costs around the same but you get so much more

Excellent place to enjoy weekends with relatives. Beautiful views and greens, specially for kids to play each other. You can go with your pets to swim with them in a small pool and pay tickets to ride the small trip on train around golf camp.

A great place for kids but definitely needs work to make it a better experience. Would go again and looking forward to seeing what all the works do to improve!

Great draw card for young and old. Train and farm animal feeding stop great although a little expensive for families. Nice child friendly cafe. Only criticism - no infant change space in toilet facilities.

Shelters, play equipment, ponds with bridges and birds and nature type stuff, miniature train, petting zoo. Plenty to keep kids active and entertained.

The upgrade is awesome better than many zoos I have been too, family loved it so much. Mini farm addition and Mini golf was awesome. Will come back soon please support so they can upgrade even more A+

Unlike most mini golf courses I have visited, this place has been maintained. The owners are planning on some further renovation to one of the courses (the more difficult, Canberra themed course). The courses are mostly built around altering the ground rather than “swinging log over the hole” gimmicks.

Went there with the grandkids. They had a great time. We also had lunch there. Food was good and reasonably priced.

We pay $50 for the family pass which involved legitimate 5 minute train ride to a tiny petting zoo that was half closed for repairs. Can't help but feel scammed

Quaint train ride and a small area with alpacas, sheep, goats, chickens, pigs, miniature horses and ponies and various birds. Could have better signage / maintenance. Staff are friendly. Not many other visitors so had the place to ourselves.
