IMAGINE a café where the atmosphere, vibrant and light for breakfast, becomes plush and reinvigorating for lunch. As the sun crosses the sky, the relaxed cafe by day transforms into a casual restaurant and bar by night.

The perfect balance of funky lighting, polished design, comfortable seating and a menu to match creates a setting where you can feel at home at any time of the day.
This was the goal of Melbourne’s Rocky Veneziano, who, on the streets of Melbourne in the summer of ’98, saw an unfulfilled need in the city’s restaurant scene. He envisioned a restaurant that served flavourful, bold dishes that would appeal to any appetite.

He saw a place where groups of friends came for the food, but lingered over drinks and conversation because everyone was having too much fun to leave.
His ideas came to fruition and caught on like wildfire. His venues – The Groove Train – spread across Melbourne, then to Brisbane, Darwin, Perth, and has recently opened in Shepparton.

The style of Groove Train restaurants is a place that sets the scene for every dining experience.

The Groove Train Shepparton is now open at 2-10 St Georges Road. Book now via their website www.groovetrain.com.au, Facebook page @TheGrooveTrainShepparton or phone 5846 8999.
