The Parkway Perk Cafe and Phams Noodle House

The Parkway Perk Cafe and Pham's Noodle House is Bradbury's two-in-one local: an early-morning cafe on the shopfront of the Bradbury Shopping Centre that hands over to a noodle kitchen in the evenings. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor tables out front, which makes it a genuine coffee stop for Campbelltown dog owners rather than a takeaway-only workaround.

The dog setup

Dogs join you on the footpath tables and patio out the front of the shop, and locals treat it as a reliably dog-friendly stop. It is a busy shopping-centre strip, so keep your dog on a lead and settled under or beside the table. Water bowls are not a given, so pack a portable one, especially in the morning rush.

Max: come early. Before 7am the footpath is quiet enough for a nervous dog to relax, and the first coffee of the day is the best one.

The vibe

By day it is all-day breakfast and lunch, from smashed avo and bacon rolls through to coffee and muffins, with doors opening from 5.30am on weekdays. Come the evening, the kitchen switches over to Pham's Noodle House, a long-running Campbelltown name, turning out laksa, pho, satay chicken and wonton noodle soups. Weekday early mornings are the calm window before the shopping-centre crowd arrives.

Getting there and parking

You will find it at Shop 8B, 100 The Parkway, Bradbury. The Bradbury Shopping Centre car park sits right out front with free parking, and there is street parking along The Parkway. Access from the car park is flat and easy, which helps if you are managing a lead, a coffee and a dog all at once.

Pair it with

Give the dog a proper run first at the Baden Powell Reserve fenced off-leash park, a short drive away, then walk in for breakfast. Other local options include the Hidden Leaf Cafe and Sugar Mint Cafe over in Campbelltown.
