Our Father

Our Father is a well-liked local cafe on Burraneer Bay Road, known for a strong brunch menu and a genuinely dog-friendly setup. It is a good pick for a coffee stop with the dog on a Sutherland Shire loop, not a destination in its own right.

Dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the front undercover outdoor seating and in the breezy rear courtyard. Indoors is off-limits under council rules, as at any NSW cafe. Staff are known to be dog-friendly and treats turn up from time to time, but bring your own water bowl to be safe.

Known for. Bacon and egg rolls, corn and zucchini fritters, banana bread and a well-regarded coffee. Reviewers also note the barramundi and avo toast on the lunch side, and consistently friendly, efficient service.

Getting there and parking. The cafe sits at 182 Burraneer Bay Road. It is a popular spot on a main road, so parking fills up on weekends. Try the surrounding residential streets if the strip out front is full.

Nearby with the dogs. Burraneer Bay itself is an easy stroll from the cafe if you want to stretch legs after brunch, and there are a handful of small local parks scattered around the suburb.

Go early on weekends before the outdoor tables fill, and check current seating rules if you're bringing a bigger dog into the courtyard.
