Correction (3 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten, and every place below was checked against its own current information.
It’s late. You’re hungry. Two facts matter: when the counter closes, and how you get home.
Seven places near Craigieburn South list a closing time of 10:30pm or later. None of them has a Craigieburn South address. Five are in Craigieburn and two are in Mickleham, all postcode 3064. The listings we read give trading hours, not separate kitchen times, so “listed close” below means the time the page gives.

Open past 2am (listed): no.
The directory says the place “is all about Middle Eastern Cuisine”. We captured no menu and no prices, so no dish is named.

The store page says “Start Your Order Delivery Or Pick Up”. It lists a delivery deal “From $31.99” for 2 Value Pizzas + 2 Sides, marked “Only available at selected stores”. Deals change, so the order screen is the price on the night.
KFC Merrifield — 228 Donnybrook Road, Mickleham VIC 3064
Listed close: 11:59 PM every day, from OpenStreetMap’s opening_hours tag (Mo-Su 10:00-23:59). That is a crowd-sourced listing. KFC’s own page showed no schedule when we read it, so confirm before you go.
Open past 2am (listed): no, on the only hours we found.
The same OpenStreetMap entry tags takeaway and a drive-through. We captured no prices. 228 Donnybrook Road is the Merrifield store, in Mickleham.

Listed close: 10:30 PM, every day, on its own page. Opens 11:00 AM. Craigieburn Central’s directory lists 11:00am - 11:00pm every day, so check before a late visit.

The 3am rule
Past 2am, the list is one name long. Hungry Jack’s is the only place here with a listed close later than 2:00 AM: Thursday drive-thru, then Friday and Saturday. Check the store’s hours that night before you drive.
Get home: we did not check the Night Network, train or bus times for this page. Use PTV’s journey planner for the last service before you order.

How we checked
On 2 October 2026 we read each venue’s own page where it printed hours (Hungry Jack’s, Domino’s, El Jannah) and the Craigieburn Central and Merrifield City directories where it did not. KFC’s hours are OpenStreetMap’s. We confirmed each place at a second source on a different domain: Shopfully, AGFG, OpenStreetMap, KFC’s own page, or the shopping-centre directories. Prices are copied exactly as printed on the venue’s own page. Hours change and a listing can lag the shop, so ring before a long drive. We did not check public transport for this page. The photos are illustrative, from Unsplash: they show the kind of scene, not the places on this page.
