The Brew Cafe Hilton

The Brew Cafe Hilton sits on South Street in Hilton's shopping strip, a family-run corner cafe built around serious coffee and an easy welcome for dogs, right down to a free house-made treat at the table. It is the kind of local stop where the weekend crowd arrives with dogs and nobody blinks.

The dog setup

Dogs are welcome in the outdoor seating area out front. Keep them on a lead and settled around other patrons and passing dogs, and expect a complimentary house-made dog treat or puppuccino to arrive alongside your order. The venue describes itself plainly as a dog friendly cafe, and the staff mean it.

Max: the outdoor tables sit close to the footpath, so keep the lead short when the strip gets busy with other dogs on a weekend.

The vibe

The coffee is the headline: they pour Micrology Coffee Roasters beans, and the long mac topped up gets a specific local following. The menu covers casual breakfast and lunch, it is kid friendly, and service is unhurried. Weekday mornings are the easiest time to get a table; weekends bring the local coffee crowd, so allow a short wait.

Getting there and parking

The cafe is on South Street in the Hilton strip next to Coles, about ten minutes from Fremantle. Street parking is available on South Street and the surrounding side streets.

Close by with the dogs

For a proper run before or after coffee, the South Beach Dog Off Leash Area is a short drive west. In the same suburb, Charlie's Coffee Bar and Mumma Bee Cafe round out the local circuit, and Cafe Lumos is just up the hill in White Gum Valley.
