Kowloon Cafe Perth

Kowloon Cafe Perth is a Hong Kong style cha chaan teng tucked into the Coventry Village precinct on Walter Road West in Morley, serving baked pork chop rice, sizzling hotplates and proper HK milk tea to a loyal local crowd. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor seating, which makes this a solid refuel stop after a walk rather than a special trip.

The dog setup

Dogs stay in the alfresco seating out front, in line with the food safety rules that apply to indoor dining across Western Australia. Tables sit directly outside the shop within the precinct, so it is footpath territory rather than a leafy courtyard. Water bowls are not consistently put out, so pack a collapsible bowl and keep your dog tucked close, because the precinct footpath carries steady foot traffic.

The vibe

The menu is classic Hong Kong cafe comfort: baked Portuguese chicken with fried rice, satay beef instant noodles, sweet and sour pork, thick French toast and dim sum, all at budget friendly prices. The set specials bundle a main with soup of the day and a hot or cold drink, and the HK style milk tea is the drink to order. Hours run 11am to 8:30pm Monday and Wednesday through Sunday, with Tuesdays closed.

Max: the alfresco tables fill fast at lunch, so if you want to sit with your dog rather than get takeaway, come in an off peak window.

Getting there

You will find it at Shop 3A/243-253 Walter Road West, Morley, inside Coventry Village. Street parking and the surrounding precinct car parks make it an easy stop by car, and the venue works best for owners happy with an outdoor table rather than an indoor sit down meal.

While you're out there

Dancing Duck & Co on Lincoln Road is another dog friendly Morley table, famous for its dog biscuits, and Riverside Gardens Dog Exercise Area in Bayswater gives you riverfront off leash space a short drive away. For a fenced session, Dianella Fenced Dog Park covers that too.

More tables are on the Western Australia dog friendly cafes guide and the Morley destination page.
