What visitors mention
The Church Block Cafe is a window-service coffee stop at 1/27 Alexander Street in Eglinton, just outside Bathurst. The single reason to bring your dog: you order through the window, so your dog stays right beside you the entire time without stepping inside.
The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the immediate outdoor area while you wait at the service window. Keep your dog on a leash, as Alexander Street carries local traffic and pedestrian flow. There is no confirmed water bowl or dedicated dog amenity, so bring your own.
Good to know. The cafe earns its 4.7-star rating on the back of house-made quiche, cake, and sweet and savoury treats, plus locally sourced coffee. Reviewers consistently highlight the polite staff and relaxed atmosphere. Social media posts occasionally show local horses dropping by, which gives you a sense of the community this spot draws.
Nearby with the dogs. If you want to stretch the legs properly, Kefford St Off-Leash Dog Park is the closest designated off-leash option in Bathurst. For a sit-down meal later, Dogwood, BX - Restaurant Bathurst is worth a look.
Street parking is available directly on Alexander Street. A quiet weekday brew is your best bet for an easy park and a calm outdoor spot for your dog.
