Chester Z

Chester Z is a small local espresso bar in the Candlewood Village Shopping Centre, and it is one of the more dog-welcoming coffee stops in Joondalup. Dogs sit with you at the outdoor tables, and the kitchen makes its own dog treats, which is the reason regulars bring their dogs along.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor seating, which is casual and relaxed and easy to reach on flat ground from the car park. Staff genuinely like seeing dogs and often have homemade treats on hand. Bring your own water bowl, as a dedicated dog bowl is not guaranteed.

Good to know. The coffee has a strong local following, and the spot trades on friendly, name-remembering service and homemade food. It is a neighbourhood coffee stop rather than a big brunch operation.

Getting there. Located in Candlewood Village on Candlewood Boulevard. There is ample free parking in the shopping centre car park, and access from the car park to the door is flat and easy.

Nearby with the dogs. The surrounding Candlewood residential streets suit a post-coffee leashed walk. For off-leash running, the Elcar Park fenced dog park is a short drive away in the Joondalup CBD.

Best on a weekday morning, when the outdoor tables are quiet and the service is unhurried. Good for a relaxed local coffee with a sociable dog.
