Brewfield Cafe & Catering

Brewfield Cafe & Catering sits inside the Ashfield Civic Centre foyer on Liverpool Road, a bright, open space that works well if you want a quieter coffee stop away from the main strip. It is closed on weekends, so this is a weekday option.

The dog setup. Dogs are permitted, and the wide, open foyer layout with outdoor seating gives well-behaved dogs on a lead room to settle. It is not a dedicated dog cafe, so keep leads short and expect a fairly formal, civic-building atmosphere rather than a beer-garden vibe.

Good to know. Open Monday to Friday, 8am to 3pm, closed weekends. Known for its coffee, vegetarian-friendly menu and made-to-order food, and it draws a steady crowd of council staff and locals rather than a weekend brunch queue.

Getting there. The cafe is at 260 Liverpool Road, Ashfield, inside the Civic Centre, a short walk from Ashfield Station. Parking is limited on the surrounding streets, though the Civic Centre area has some nearby council parking.

Nearby with the dogs. Ashfield Park is a short walk away with open lawns and shade, a good follow-on stop after a coffee.

Go on a weekday between meal rushes if you want a calm sit. It is shut on weekends, so plan around that.
