Correction (3 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources between 2 October 2026 and 3 October 2026, and every price was copied from the page it was published on.
The parent planning at 9pm wants four answers: is there a kids menu, is there a high chair, what are the hours, and what does it cost. This page gives what each place’s own site says on those, with the source named.
There are five places. Three are in Officer, one is in Pakenham and one is in Beaconsfield, so this is a list in and around Officer. We could not read a kids menu price for every place, and we say so where that is the case. Menus and hours change, so check the nap window and the booking details with the venue.

Third Wave BBQ Officer — Shop 7/43 Siding Avenue, Officer VIC 3809
Third Wave BBQ’s Officer page says: “Kids menu and high chairs; wheelchair accessible.” It also lists takeaway from the venue and home delivery through its delivery partners. Its Officer page lists Saturday 11am to 10:00pm and Sunday 11am to 9pm.
The Officer page prints an All You Can Eat BBQ every Tuesday from 5:30pm, at the prices below, “a head”. The page text we captured did not show what kids pay or any kids menu prices, so ask before you book.
On the menu (copied from thirdwavebbq.com.au on 3 October 2026):
- All You Can Eat BBQ, Tuesdays from 5:30pm: BBQ Base Camp: $69
- All You Can Eat BBQ: Carnivore Mode: $96
- All You Can Eat BBQ: BBQ Royalty: $119
- Bottomless drinks package (most venues): $59.90
Pram check: The site’s wording is “wheelchair accessible”, and we recorded nothing about pram space, so ask when you book.
Gordi Restaurant Cafe & Bar — Shop 21 Arena Shopping Centre, 4 Cardinia Road, Officer VIC 3809
Gordi’s menu has a section headed “KIDS MENU (UNDER 12)”. The Australian Good Food Guide lists it open from 8:00 AM on weekdays and 8:30 AM on Saturday and Sunday; we took the hours from that listing because we read none on Gordi’s own site.
On the main menu, Chicken Parmigiana is $30, the Beef Burger is $29 and the Vege Burger is $28. The menu also lists a Brekky Burger: “Brioche, bacon, egg, tasty cheese, tomato relish & hash brown”.
On the menu (copied from gordi.com.au on 3 October 2026):
- Garlic Bread (V): $13
- Chicken Parmigiana: $30
- Beef Burger: $29
- Vege Burger: $28
Pack: Look at the kids section of the menu before you leave; it prints Kids Fish & Chips (under 12) at $12.
Club Officer — 3 Niki Place, Officer VIC 3809
Club Officer’s site says its kids menu is “Available for kids under 12 only. All kids meals include a drink and dessert.” It also describes a dedicated kids’ play area, and invites diners outdoors with lake views. Its club trading hours are Sunday to Wednesday 10.00am to 2.00am and Thursday to Saturday 10.00am to 3.00am; kitchen hours are not stated on the page.
Club Officer is a licensed club with a membership page. The pages we read do not say whether non-members can walk in, so check before you go. A Chicken Parma is $32 and the Beer Battered Fish & Chips is $33.
On the menu (copied from clubofficer.com.au on 2 October 2026):
- Soup of the Day: $12
- Garlic Bread: $13
- Chicken Parma: $32
- Beer Battered Fish & Chips: $33
Pack: The kids menu prints Kids Nuggets at $15, with chips and tomato sauce, and the site says kids meals include a drink and dessert.
Castello’s Pakenham Hotel — 226-230 Princes Highway, Pakenham VIC 3810
Castello’s lists “Accessible entry ramps and ambulant restrooms” for its Pakenham Hotel. On kids, its site mentions “a choice of offerings for the kids, all at affordable prices for all you can eat”. The page gives “Venue Hours: 10am-4am”, and its bistro hours are listed separately, so check those for dinner.
The Pakenham Hotel is in Pakenham, not Officer. The sports bar menu we read prints the Angus porterhouse at $37 and the steak sandwich at $29. It did not show kids prices.
On the menu (copied from castellos.com.au on 2 October 2026):
- Angus porterhouse 250g: $37
- Steak sandwich: $29
Pram check: The site says “Accessible entry ramps and ambulant restrooms”; we recorded nothing about pram space, so ask when you book.
DoppioZero Pizzeria & Wine Bar (Beaconsfield) — 10 Brunt Road (Melaleuca Lodge), Beaconsfield VIC 3807
DoppioZero’s site says: “Doppiozero is a family owned and operated restaurant, we love to bring our family friendly nature to all that dine with us.” It also says it provides “great traditional Italian pizza to residents of Officer, Clyde North, Berwick, Narre Warren South, Guys Hill and more”, and its site has an Order Takeaway link.
Its hours, as printed on the site: Monday to Thursday 5pm to 10pm, Friday 5pm to 11pm, Saturday 12pm to 3pm and 5pm to 9:30pm, and Sunday 12pm to 10pm. We could not read a menu with prices, and nothing we recorded mentions a kids menu.
Pram check: What we recorded does not cover steps, paths or high chairs, so ask before you go with a pram.
