Open from Monday to Sunday, tour groups on a tight itinerary can arrive, dine and enjoy our unique Bavarian Floor Show within an hour (although you are welcome to dine at your leisure).
The buffet style food selection offers something for everyone and is always ready on arrival – no ordering time, no cooking time, no waiting!
The team at the Cuckoo are very used to inbound tour groups large and small, and can ensure that your group’s stay runs smoothly, that guests get to enjoy the floorshow wherever possible, and are all ready in time to leave for their next destination.
The Cuckoo does occasionally close on Mondays and Tuesdays, please book ahead to ensure your chosen date is open.
Social Groups
The Cuckoo is a very popular destination for social groups and is close to a range of activities including Puffing Billy Railway and a selection of different stunning gardens and national parks.
Our generous buffet has options for all appetites and, where requested, we can organise for soup to be brought directly to your table.
Live entertainment is always a must and our musicians have a never ending repertoire of all the favourites to sing along to and entice visitors to the dance floor.
Our friendly booking staff can help you with tour suggestions. Have a look at a few attractions within a short distance of the Cuckoo.
School Groups
The Cuckoo has been welcoming students from Primary and Secondary schools for decades and can offer a number of different experiences!
Just for fun!
Book your school group in for a pleasurable cultural trip up to the Dandenong Ranges. Educate your group with our traditional German themes. Indulge in the enormous buffet (the kids LOVE the dessert buffet) and soak up the Bavarian Cuckoo atmosphere that can’t be found anywhere else in Melbourne.
Students get to enjoy our unique Bavarian floor show and interact with the performers. Great for a treat and a unique experience which students remember for years. Gemutlichkeit!
