Launnie Heights

Launnie Heights is a cafe set in the Tamar Yacht Club building with broad views over the river, and its outdoor deck is dog-friendly, a relaxed waterfront coffee or brunch with the dog.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome on the outdoor deck, the spot to pick for the river views. The interior is for dining. Bring your own water bowl, and the riverbank paths right outside are handy for settling the dog first.

Good to know. The cafe does all-day breakfast, lunch and coffee with a genuinely pet-friendly outlook, and the Tamar River outlook is the draw.

Getting there. Address is 7 Park Street, beside Royal Park near the city centre. Parking is available around the Tamar Yacht Club, and it is an easy walk or short drive from the CBD.

Nearby with the dogs. Royal Park is right next door with leashed riverbank paths, the QVMAG precinct at Inveresk is close for a walk, and the Tamar River walk carries on for a longer stroll.

When to go. A fine-weather brunch on the deck is the highlight. Come a little off the weekend peak for an easier table with room for the dog.
