Australian Native Bonsai

Australian Native Bonsai is a cafe, native plant nursery and bonsai display rolled into one, set inside a converted old garage on Auburn Street in central Goulburn. It is an unusual, garden-style space to slow down with a coffee, and the relaxed layout makes it an easy one to bring a calm dog along to.

The dog setup. The seating is mostly outdoor and semi-outdoor among the plants, so well-behaved dogs can join you while you browse or have a coffee. There is some sheltered area if the weather turns. Bring your own water bowl, as the setup is casual rather than a formal dog menu.

Good to know. Coffee, tea and hot chocolate alongside Australian native bonsai specimens, local flowers and gifts. It is a quiet, wander-at-your-pace sort of stop rather than a quick-bite cafe. Hours have run Thursday and Friday 9am to 5pm and weekends 9am to 4pm, but confirm before a special trip as a small operator can shift days.

Getting there. 66 Auburn Street, Goulburn, in the historic commercial strip. Street parking on Auburn Street with public lots nearby.

Nearby with the dogs. Belmore Park is a short walk away for a leg-stretch, and the central Goulburn streets make for an easy on-leash window-shopping wander.
