Convoy Commune

Convoy Commune is a relaxed neighbourhood cafe on Mitchell Street in Merewether, built for lingering over brunch, with a covered outdoor deck that welcomes dogs.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the airy, covered outdoor seating and along the wraparound deck, which has room to settle a dog comfortably beside the table. Bring your own water bowl; ask staff for a top-up if needed.

Good to know. It opens early, from around 6 to 7am, so it suits a post-walk coffee. The menu leans into brunch with acai bowls, toasties and pastries, plus vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options. The fit-out with timber and stone gives it a comfortable local feel.

Getting there. 88 Mitchell Street, in the heart of Merewether. Street parking is available on Mitchell Street and the surrounding blocks.

Nearby with the dogs. Merewether Beach is a short walk or drive away, and the surrounding streets are pedestrian-friendly for a wander before or after coffee.

Weekday mornings are the calmest for a table on the deck. Good for a proper sit-down brunch with the dog rather than a grab-and-go.
