   I really enjoyed coming here in the past and there are heaps of gluten free options which is great but unfortunately yesterday the service was quite slow as we waited almost an hour for food (burgers and egg dishes). This made the experience less enjoyable as we wanted to try head out to explore the area. It was quite busy but seemed like food was just very slow. The sweets and scones are really nice 😊

   Must do iconic experience in the Dandenongs. Amazing view, feels like you are dining in the trees with the local bird life.

   A great place for catching up in the Dandenongs. The history/photos on the walls add to the atmosphere. The hospitality and staff attentiveness was great - they were friendly and helpful in catering for our dietary requirements.

   Lovely place to have a high tea! Was placed at a table where we were able to see birds outside the window and it made the atmosphere very enjoyable. Will come again!

    What a lovely greeting we received upon arriving early for our afternoon tea booking. With elderly guests we were gratefully seated at an interim table to wait until our beautiful window table became available. Our scones were light and tasty and of incredibly generous proportions, we were glad we hadn’t eaten lunch and did not feel rushed to give up the table despite the tea house being incredibly busy. It would have been nice to have the table cleared earlier or be offered water or something else sooner but they were very busy and this did not affect our enjoyment of our Easter get together. Will definitely visit again

    Great little place with loads of character. Much better than Kallista Cafe down the road. The food was excellent with a good choice of meals and all were reasonably priced. They were very full when we were there and the waiting staff got a little overwhelmed. Nothing serious though.

    We had to wait 15 minutes for a table even though we had a booking. This was difficult because there isn’t much space available to wait. The cake piece sizes have decreased considerably over the last few years where now you are paying $9.5 for a sliver of cake. The slices used to be 3x the size. The tea cup given to serve tea was not clean. We cleaned it ourselves. We had to ask for cream even though we asked when making the original order. This place would not survive closer to the city with service like that. It’s a shame because the building is nice. The staff try but the standards set are very low.

    Enjoyed a very nice lunch date with friends yesterday. The staff were exceptional, the food tasty and plentiful and the location idyllic. We sat and chatted without being made to feel that we had to move on. Before we knew it, it was time for a coffee and scones with jam and cream. YUM! Thank you, we loved our time at the Kallista Tea Rooms. 😋🥰

    Wonderful food was enhanced by the amazing service and delightful setting. I took my mum for lunch and the staff made it a special day by putting a birthday candle in a little treat and singing happy birthday. It was lovely to enjoy the yummy food while watching the cocky's in the old oak tree. I would highly recommend visiting and experiencing Kallista Tea Rooms for yourself.

    As a coeliac it is great to feel secure that the staff and management understand the issues and if the food is stated gluten free then I can be sure it is glutenfree.

    We regularly visit Kallista Tea Rooms. It’s a great location with delicious food options, amazing coffee and their cold drinks and juices are very refreshing. They have a yummy dessert case with slices and cake plus lots of other smaller jarred deserts to keep the kiddies happy. If you are coeliac you’ll have no problems here.

    Kallista Tea Rooms is a delightful place for lunch or coffee. We enjoyed some delicious food from a good variety of options without being an overwhelming menu. The kids menu choices were just right and all the food was fresh and very tasty. We had very friendly service and as much attention as we needed. The location is a big plus with great views as well as plenty of parking. It is a beautiful area with lots of post-lunch walks close by. We only had a 30 minute drive to get there.
