Young Mugs Cafe

Young Mugs Cafe is a suburban favourite in Ballajura, tucked into the Alexander Drive shopping strip, with a small on-lead outdoor seating area that makes it an easy coffee stop with the dog before or after a walk.

Dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor seating out front, on the paved walkway area of the complex. Keep your dog on lead and settled at your table, this is a shopping strip frontage rather than a fenced courtyard, so it suits a calm dog more than one that reacts to passing foot traffic. Staff are known to be welcoming, and a water bowl is often put out, but it is worth asking when you arrive rather than assuming one is out.

Known for. Regulars come back for the Sticky Pulled Pork Benedict and the coffee, and the cafe also runs a Nepalese dinner menu that is unusual for a suburban spot, including momo and chicken chilly. Hours are generally 7am to 2:30pm and it is typically closed Mondays, but cafe hours shift, so check ahead if you are planning a specific visit.

Getting there. The cafe sits within a small shopping complex at 329 Alexander Drive, with free car parking right outside and flat, easy access from the car park to the outdoor tables.

Best for a quick coffee on the way to or from a walk rather than a long sit, given the seating is limited to the outdoor frontage. Weekday mornings are the easiest time to get a table before the shopping strip gets busy.
