Brewfield Cafe & Catering

Brewfield Cafe & Catering is at 260 Liverpool Road in Ashfield's civic centre precinct, a short walk from Ashfield Station. It is a weekday cafe, trading Monday to Friday from 8am to about 2pm, doing specialty coffee, fresh breakfast and lunch, house-baked sweets like banana bread and Persian orange cake, plus a catering arm for office orders. Reviewers describe a calm, quiet space that is easy with kids.

The dog setup

There is no published pet policy to quote, so treat this as a cafe-with-outdoor-seating option rather than a guaranteed dog stop. The open layout and civic-precinct setting suit a well-behaved dog on a short lead at the outside tables; check with staff on arrival and bring your own water bowl. Being closed weekends matters: plan a weekday visit and aim between breakfast and lunch rushes for the quietest sit.

Afterwards, Bede Spillane Reserve Fenced Dog Park in Croydon is a short drive for an off-lead run. In the suburb itself, Excelsior Jones and POMPOM CAFE are established Ashfield coffee options. More options are on the New South Wales dog friendly cafes guide and the Ashfield destination page.
