Cafe Chapter 4

Cafe Chapter 4 is a community-minded brunch spot just off the main Braddon strip on Batman Street, and it has a steady reputation as one of the more dog-welcoming cafes in the inner north. The covered outdoor courtyard is the reason to bring the dog.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor courtyard and at the footpath tables; inside is for people only. The covered courtyard is the pick, since it stays usable in most weather. Staff are known to bring out water bowls, though it is worth carrying your own as a backup.

Good to know. The kitchen turns out a broad brunch menu, eggs benedict, the bacon and egg roll, the Scrambowl, smashed avo, plus a solid coffee and a large tea list. Reviews consistently mention friendly, accommodating staff.

Getting there. Batman Street has paid street parking with some limited free spaces nearby, and it is a short walk from the Lonsdale Street strip. Ground-level access makes it easy with a dog in tow. Haig Park is a few minutes away for a walk to bookend the meal.

Quietest on weekday mornings; weekends draw a brunch crowd, so the courtyard tables go early.
