Wonder by Alice

Wonder by Alice is a flower cafe and creative studio at The Point in the South.Point Tuggeranong complex in Greenway, styled with an Alice in Wonderland bent and fresh flowers everywhere you look. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor tables, and the menu stretches further than most flower shops - Campos coffee, brunch, ramen and high tea.

The dog setup

Dogs are welcome in the outdoor seating area at The Point, which has both sunny and shaded tables. Staff are known for putting out water bowls, and the cafe has hosted Canberra Dog Walks group meetups with pup-friendly treats, so four-legged regulars are part of the routine here. Inside is kept for people, so plan on an outdoor table.

The vibe and the food

The draw is the floral, whimsical setting paired with a menu that runs from high tea to ramen, washed down with Campos coffee. Hours generally run 8:30am to 3pm Tuesday to Friday and from 8am on weekends, closed Mondays - it sits inside a shopping centre, so confirm on the day. A quieter weekday visit suits the outdoor tables best if your dog would rather skip weekend centre bustle.

Getting there and parking

The cafe sits within the South.Point shopping centre on Anketell Street, which has extensive undercover and open-air parking with pedestrian access from around Greenway.

Close by with the dogs

Greenway Dog Park on the shore of Lake Tuggeranong is fully fenced with separate enclosures for big and small dogs, and the Lake Tuggeranong Loop handles a leashed lakeside walk before or after your table. If you are pairing cafe stops, EightyTwenty Greenway and BrewBar Reed Street are both nearby and dog-welcoming.

More options around the district are on the Greenway destination page, and the full list sits in the ACT cafes index.
