Nosh

Nosh is a cafe at 136 River Street, Ballina, with footpath seating where dogs are welcome. It runs to fresh, healthy breakfast and lunch fare on the main street, making it an easy coffee stop with the dog before a riverside walk.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor footpath seating, kept on-leash. The area is street-side, so an easy access point for walkers. Staff are friendly and water bowls are typically on hand. If your dog is unsettled by busy footpaths, takeaway is an easy fallback.

Good to know. The kitchen leans healthy and fresh, with super-greens plates, well-rated coffee and good vegetarian and vegan options. Reviewers single out the warm service.

Getting there. Street parking sits in front on River Street, with side-street options including Burns Lane for closer access to the outdoor area.

Nearby with the dogs. The Richmond River walk is a short stroll away, and the Ballina foreshore parklands are close for an on-leash walk.

When to go. Quieter on weekday mornings than at weekend brunch. Good for a fresh breakfast with the dog before a foreshore walk.
