Botanicafe

Botanicafe is a plant-filled brunch spot at 165 Beaudesert Road, Moorooka, and one of the more reliable dog-friendly stops on Brisbane's southside. Dogs are welcome in the front and undercover outdoor seating, so you can settle in with a coffee while your dog stays beside the table.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the front, undercover outdoor seating. As with most Queensland cafes, dogs stay in the outdoor and deck areas rather than inside. Staff are known to be dog-friendly and often bring out a water bowl, but bring your own bowl to be safe on a warm day.

Good to know. The kitchen leans healthy and generous, with well-regarded coffee, savoury muffins, homemade sausage rolls, acai bowls and a brekky burger. It is a casual, family-friendly room with a kids' play area and board games. Hours run early to early afternoon, generally from around 7:00 am until the early-to-mid afternoon, so it is a breakfast and brunch call rather than a dinner one; confirm current hours before a late arrival.

Getting there. Street parking runs along Beaudesert Road but gets busy; the quieter side streets nearby are a better bet. Buses run along Beaudesert Road with stops close by.

Nearby with the dogs. Evans Road Park fenced dog park is a short drive away for an off-leash run, and Toohey Forest's on-leash tracks are only a few minutes further for a proper walk before or after coffee.
