Lazy George Cafe Marulan

Lazy George Cafe is a popular Hume Highway stopover in the Marulan Village Centre, open early for breakfast through to mid-afternoon, and it explicitly advertises dog-friendly outdoor dining with plenty of room to spread out.

Dog access: Dogs are welcome at the paved outdoor seating area, with easy access straight from the street or the carpark, no need to go through the inside. Water bowls are generally on offer and staff have a reputation for being genuinely welcoming to travelling dogs. Keep leads on and dogs settled under the table.

Known for: Campos coffee, hearty breakfasts and all-day dining, gluten-free buns and a reliable halloumi burger, plus pizza specials, a solid fuel-up for owners as well as dogs.

Getting there: About two minutes off the Hume Highway, with plentiful free off-street parking in the Marulan Village Centre carpark, big enough for cars, utes and caravans. It is also a short walk from Marulan Railway Station.

Nearby with the dogs: Tony Onions Memorial Park is close by on George Street, with open grass and picnic tables for a stretch break, and the quiet historic town centre is easy to stroll on-leash.

A reliable, well set up stop for the Sydney-Canberra run. Good for a proper sit-down meal rather than a rushed coffee, since the outdoor area gives dogs real space to settle.
