The Flinders Street Project

The Flinders Street Project is a modern produce-led cafe on Flinders Street in the CBD, easy to spot for the thousands of wooden spoons strung across its ceiling. Dogs are welcome at the footpath tables, which makes it a handy coffee-and-brunch stop on a city walk.

The dog setup. Dogs join you at the outdoor tables on the Flinders Street footpath. Inside is for assistance dogs only, in line with food-safety rules, so plan to sit out front. Staff are accommodating, but bring your own collapsible bowl for water rather than counting on one.

Good to know. The kitchen does creative brunch, smashed avo with desert lime marmalade among the regulars, alongside good pastries and specialty coffee. It is a sit-down brunch spot more than a grab-and-go counter, so it suits a settled dog happy to wait under the table.

Getting there and parking. The cafe is at 276 Flinders Street. Street parking on Flinders Street and side streets like Gawler Place is limited, so check the signs for times and rates. It is highly walkable from the CBD and close to bus stops on Flinders Street.

Nearby with the dogs. Rymill Park (Murlawirrapurka) is a short walk east for a larger parkland loop with lakes, and Victoria Square (Tarntanyangga) is a few blocks west for a quick stroll.

Weekday mornings and mid-afternoons are the calmest for a footpath table; weekend brunch gets busy. A reliable central pick for a coffee mid-walk with the dog.
