🎬 Your weekend reminder: Movie Nights are on in the Yellow Bus! 🚌🍿
Every Friday & Saturday night, the Yellow Bus turns into our little kids cinema, with a family-friendly movie kicking off at 5:30pm.
And because movie night needs snacks, the kids can tuck into a mini pizza from Mr Pitta + milkshake while they watch. 🍕🥤
Meanwhile, you can settle in for dinner, drinks and a much easier winter night out. 🙌
📍 Every Friday & Saturday
🎥 Movie from 5:30pm
🚌 In the Yellow Bus

Nine years. Countless meals. Thousands of memories. ❤️
What started as a vision has grown into a place where the west comes together.
For the past 9 years, we've proudly served our local community with charcoal-cooked favourites, cold drinks, family celebrations, casual catch ups and everything in between. From weeknight dinners and Sunday roasts to birthdays, functions and Friday knock-offs, it's been an incredible journey.
We've watched families grow, welcomed familiar faces week after week and built something we're truly proud of, right here in Sunshine West.
To everyone who's walked through our doors over the past nine years, thank you for being part of our story. Here's to many more years of great food, great company and proudly serving Melbourne's west. 🍻
