Whistlestop Pimpama

Open 7 days for Breakfast, Brunch and Dinner there are so many opportunities to have a great family meal at Whistlestop Pimpama.

The Farmyard

I will start with the Farmyard as this outdoor eating area makes Whistlestop Pimpama a great toddler friendly dining option on the Northern Gold Coast.

Features include:

• Shaded Picnic Tables or picnic blankets supplied
• Lucy the sheep
• Old ride on mower and car to play on
• Fire Pit
• Garden games available for use i.e. skittles and bocce
• Lots of quirky things to look at like plants in wheelbarrows and tin roosters

The Farmyard is roped off so to speak from the drive-through laneway but it is not fenced nor fully enclosed. My children were too interested with all there was to see and do to bother with the road but worth mentioning as you will need to keep at least one eye on your toddler whilst dining in the Farmyard.

If you are visiting Whistlestop Pimpama for breakfast or brunch you can order from the restaurant area and let them know you would like to eat out in the Farmyard and they will serve you outside.

If visiting for Whistlestop’s Farmhouse Feast from 5pm to 9pm Wednesday to Sunday you can text your order ahead of time or visit the back alley takeaway window when you are ready to order and choose from items from either the Whistlestop menu or the Miss Piggys Smokehouse menu for your Farmhouse Feast. There is also a bar located to the right of the Farmyard entrance where you can order soft drink, beer, wine and cocktails to have with your Farmhouse Feast.

If conditions permit the Fire Pit will be in operation for your Farmhouse Feast. After your meal ask the staff for some marshmallows and fire sticks so your toddler can toast some marshmallows by the fire for desert.

I haven’t tried the Missy Piggy share platters yet but they look amazing and we were told by several other diners it was to die for. We plan to try this on our next night-time visit.

Whatever you order, it will be full of flavour, homemade and fill you up!
