What are we doing about food? It’s a small question with a lot of possible answers: somewhere to meet, dinner to bring home, ingredients to cook or a cake that needs organising.
The Maroondah Exchange’s food guides help you start with the choice that matters to you. Pick a category or explore the local food map, then follow the business links for current details. You don’t need to work through every listing to find a useful next stop.
Bringing your dog?
Use the Dog Guide’s food and drink filter to find cafés, meals, snacks and food shops with dog-access evidence. Check current dog access and conditions with the venue before you go.

Ice cream, gelato & frozen yoghurt
Sometimes the outing only needs one more stop: something cold and sweet before heading home. Around Maroondah, that could mean Carousel’s creamery in Bayswater North, a Mastika ice-cream shop in Croydon or Ringwood North, or one of several choices at Eastland.
This part of the Food Guide brings together seven ice-cream and gelato destinations, plus Yo-Chi for frozen yoghurt. The type of treat and the location give you a useful starting point.
Jump to the eight local listings
Choose the treat, then the stop
Carousel is an ice-cream and gelato creamery on Canterbury Road. Mastika has two separate local listings: Hewish Road in Croydon and Warrandyte Road in Ringwood North. Those give you options away from the shopping centre, depending on where your day takes you.
At Eastland, Gelatissimo is a gelato option and Ben & Jerry’s is listed at HOYTS. C9 brings chocolate and gelato together, while Wendy’s is a milk bar with ice cream. They belong in this section even though their offering is not limited to a dedicated ice-cream parlour.
Yo-Chi is the frozen-yoghurt choice. Its self-serve yoghurt and toppings are a different kind of stop, so it is listed clearly as frozen yoghurt rather than being called an ice-cream shop.
Start with the option that suits what you feel like and where you are going. The directory below groups the eight places by suburb and links to their locations and available venue details.
