PEGGYS CAFE

A friendly, home-style cafe on the quieter King Street, away from the Mitchell Street bustle, Peggys is unusually accommodating: per its listed business attributes, dogs are welcome both inside and out. That makes it a handy wet-weather option when most cafes keep dogs to the footpath.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor seating, and the cafe's listed attributes note dogs are allowed indoors as well as outside, on lead and under control. That said, indoor dog access is at the venue's discretion on the day, so a quick check on arrival is courteous. Staff are generally accommodating; bring your own water bowl.

Good to know. The cafe is known for homemade toasties, focaccias and pastries, good coffee and a solid tea selection, with friendly, welcoming service.

Getting there and parking. Find it at 38 King Street. King Street is known for easy, free street parking, and the entrance, parking and seating are wheelchair accessible.

Nearby with the dogs. Rosalind Park is close by for a pre or post-coffee walk, and Lake Weeroona is a short distance on for a longer scenic loop.

A calm choice mid-morning on a weekday, and a useful indoor backup if the weather turns. Good for a well-mannered dog that settles politely indoors.
