Ground Up Espresso

Ground Up Espresso is a relaxed neighbourhood cafe on Young Street in Carrington, known locally for quality coffee and a friendly, small-town feel. Dogs are welcome in the rear outdoor patio, making it an easy stop before or after a walk along the Carrington foreshore.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome on the rear outdoor patio rather than indoors. Water bowls are typically put out for pups, and staff are used to four-legged visitors. Keep dogs leashed in the patio area, as with any shared outdoor dining space.

Good to know. Regulars rate the flat whites and the fresh breakfast and lunch menu, including scones and muffins. It has a cosy, welcoming vibe that suits a relaxed coffee stop with the dog in tow.

Getting there. Ground Up Espresso is at 120 Young Street, Carrington. Free street parking is generally available along Young Street and the surrounding residential streets.

Nearby with the dogs. The Carrington foreshore is a short walk away and makes for a good pre- or post-coffee stroll. Fairmont Diner, another dog-friendly spot, is also nearby on Cowper Street.

Confirm current dog policy and seating directly with the cafe before visiting, as arrangements can change.
