Hendriks Cafe

Hendriks Cafe on White Street is a modern brunch spot that makes a point of welcoming dogs, with water bowls always out and pet-chinos on offer. It is an easy stop on the way to or from Mordialloc Beach and the creek boardwalk.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the front and outdoor footpath seating on White Street, the usual breezy street-side arrangement. Inside is for people only, which is standard for a cafe with food service. Water bowls are kept out and they will do a pet-chino if you ask.

Good to know. The kitchen leans into a creative brunch menu, with crab toast, the steak sandwich and lobster rolls among the regulars, and coffee from Zest Specialty Roasters. Hours run roughly 7am to 3pm on weekdays and 7:30am to 3pm on weekends, so it is a daytime venue.

Getting there. White Street is an easy walk from Mordialloc station and just off the Nepean Highway. There is free street parking nearby plus a free car park close by.

Nearby with the dogs. A pet shop sits a few doors down for treats. The Mordialloc Creek boardwalk and Mordialloc Beach are both within a short walk, though beach dog access is seasonal and time-restricted, so check the council signage at the entrance before you let the leash off.
