Be Good Café

Be Good Cafe is a cosy cafe-and-homewares shop in the East Ivanhoe Village on Lower Heidelberg Road, and it's an easy dog stop for good coffee and a browse, with a dog-friendly footpath setup right out front.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor seating on the front footpath, on leash and settled around other patrons. Staff are friendly, so ask for a water bowl if one isn't already out.

Good to know. This is a cafe and homewares shop in one, known for home-baked cakes and biscuits, fresh croissants, a simple brekkie Turkish, and Toby's Estate coffee. Worth timing a visit around a browse through the homewares while your coffee order comes together.

Getting there and parking. The cafe is at 261 Lower Heidelberg Road, in the heart of East Ivanhoe Village. Street parking sits directly out front and on side streets such as Linden Avenue and Buley Street; it's an easy walk for anyone local.

Nearby with the dogs. Fairy Hills Park and the banks of the Yarra River are both a short walk away for a stretch after coffee, and the rest of the East Ivanhoe shopping strip is an easy dog-friendly browse.

Weekday mornings keep the footpath tables free longest, before the village fills up with the weekend coffee run.
