‪Sadly it was winter time, but still worth a visit. Would love to visit in spring and summer. Free entry and wheelchair accessible.‬

‪Needed a break from hustle bustle. Stopped by at GBG.
Magnificent variety of plants and trees among many paths & lush lawns.
Nature soothes the soul & GBG delivers.
Disappointed cafe looked shut as coffee takeaway sought.
A beautiful garden to visit and relax in.‬

‪The expression stop and smell the roses. Well we did. Numerous rose varieties in the central garden beds surrounded by all sorts of interesting plants from around the world. We spent an entire afternoon wandering the gardens and marvelling the extensive array of plants that the botanic gardens had on display.‬

‪Review of the ‘The Tea House’ café in the Geelong Botanic Gardens, Geelong, Victoria

Much to our delight we caught the third and final of the Jazz Soirees of the season during our second visit to the Geelong Botanic Gardens (GBG) on Saturday afternoon that week. The session ran from 14.00 to 16.00 h with a break at mid-point for the singer Lucy Lorenne and her accompanying musicians. We had followed the people attending the soiree into the GBG but stopped short at the café with lunch in mind.
We caught the music through the trees of the soiree beginning, which helped to stimulate the atmosphere of the gardens – Victorian heritage botany with an overlay of early-mid 20th century socio-music – for those prepared to explore their imagination.
It helped that we had entered the gardens beneath the famous tiara-shaped name board that bridges the wrought iron gates at the entrance. Once inside, we were greeted by a couple of Geelong’s famous nautical bollards shifted from the sea/harbour front to the gardens. There’s the young maid in her bonnet with a sunshade on her shoulder and, behind her, there’s a middle-aged man who looks not unlike your local clergyman in cassock and dog collar. He’s offering a bowl of succulent plants to visitors. Nice touch. Are they a couple? Some additional imagination is required.
The cafe is to the right and immediately behind the ‘meet & greet’ bollards. Both the café and the surrounding outside seating within the picket fence are strictly limited for space - presumably with routine issues of queuing/waiting and/or seating/standing under cover when the weather is against you. We queued for 10-15 minutes outside and into the café – Covid-19 conditions prevailing earlier in the year remember – whilst simultaneously waiting to catch people leaving their table. You needed to be quick. Table/chairs/sandwiches in hand we shifted to some relatively isolated space in the shade. Our coffees followed us out to our seats under the trees. We paid $22 for the meal.
Meal finished we followed the sound of music from the café along empty connecting paths to the public latrines and Visitor’s Centre where there were a couple of ticket desks. The soiree was underway at the rear with people seated on the ground or on folding camp stools beneath sunshades and inside a temporary plastic mesh fence. There must have been >200 people stretched back across Camellia Lawn with the majority hugging the shade of the trees that lined Camellia Walk. The fence restricted access to casual visitors who tended to watch for a spell and then move on.
The Jazz Soiree would presumably have brought additional people into the GBG for the occasion – Saturday/weekend/final Jazz Soiree - but if the numbers that we saw that afternoon are typical of a normal summer day then the GBG Cafe is due for an upgrade. The kiosk may have an attractive 1960s image, but it appeared woefully inadequate for the estimated 30 people amongst whom we waited to place/collect an order and then find space in which to eat/drink it. Presumably the audience at the soiree that afternoon represented another source of clients – assuming that the kiosk was able to handle the additional numbers as they filtered back to the entrance after 16.00 h.
However, there is a recent note on the Web of the café closing during the winter months 2022 for much needed renovation/upgrading. Presumably, this development will feature in the various reviews from Spring 2022 on.
And then there’s the GBG itself.
A visit to the GBG is a must for those who follow the issues that are rapidly impacting the natural world everywhere – this thing about the build up of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and the eventual impact upon food/material requirements for the estimated 10 billion people that will call the planet home before the end of the 21st century. Herein the value of botanical resources everywhere and, importantly, the people/resources available with which to ensure sufficient food for all. Herein the role of plants/botanists/horticulturalists/foresters/engineers and similar resources. The GBG café may have missed an opportunity for those seeking a welcome coffee/brioche in Feb22, but the GBG as an asset for the future is fundamental – and remains to be determined/implemented.
Enjoy the collection of plants/shrubs/trees/grasses/etc. at the GBG, consider the vision of those early Victorians 130 years ago and, importantly, take your children round the 21st century garden (tell them about the water collecting/recycling/use technologies introduced/upgraded during the past 15 years) – the future of your kids may depend upon it.
And all this is located on just 7 ha of land in Eastern Park. Time to target more resources.

‪One of our favourite botanical gardens but not the best place to visit on a cold winters day. A small historical garden packed with plants and interesting features, a shame that the cafe is closed.‬

‪The Geelong Botanic Gardens were established in 1850 and are the fourth oldest botanic garden in Australia.

My wife and I walked across the entire gardens during our recent visit to Geelong. The Gardens are well maintained and very scenic.

We walked inside the Glass House Conservatory and it was hot and humid inside.‬

‪The fourth oldest gardens in Victoria; a wonderful place, with free entry and a frontage outlook to the waters of Corio Bay. These are part of the expansive Eastern Gardens. Like an oasis on a hot day, usually at least 5-10 degrees cooler. Lawns are lush and beautifully maintained and historic aspects are recognised and acknowledged appropriately. There are 3 main sections- the 19C gardens, the 20C gardens and the newest development, the 21C gardens. A welcoming environment with friendly and helpful staff. Easy to see why these gardens are popular for weddings, concerts and other special occasions. Highly recommended.‬

‪Well worth a visit to the gardens. Peaceful setting not far from the centre of town. Themed gardens throughout with a convenient coffee/tea house.‬
