footscray milking station

Footscray Milking Station
35 Bunbury St
Footscray
Melbourne 3011

Very recently opened, here we have another example of a brave opening in an unlikely suburban location. Visit the toilet block in the courtyard to see the original 'milking station' where cows from neighbouring pastures were bought in and milked, and the milk was sold from the very same shed (out the little hatch window you will spot below..) It is a tidy progression really from Milking Station to Milk Bar (some exterior signage preserved) to cafe. On to the pictures....

















Following are shots of the original milking station - now the toilets.
