Café ZoZo

Cafe ZoZo is a well-regarded, dog-welcoming cafe at 3/139 Military Road, Neutral Bay, with rear access off May Gibbs Lane. The lane-side tables, set back from the main road, are the reason it works so well with a dog in tow.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor tables down May Gibbs Lane, under umbrellas and away from the Military Road bustle. Enter from the rear off the lane rather than the busy front to reach the dog-friendly seating easily. Staff will often bring out a water bowl, but pack your own to be safe.

Good to know. With 148 reviews at 4.5, it earns steady praise for value and generous portions. Regulars point to the pesto mushroom eggs, the omelettes, and the chicken sandwich with homemade pesto, plus a sour cream apple tart for the sweet-tooth. Open Monday to Friday 7am to 3:30pm and Saturday to 2pm, closed Sundays.

Getting there. Free street and local-lot parking sits around the Neutral Bay precinct, though it fills fast at the morning peak. Military Road buses stop close by.

Nearby with the dogs. Forsyth Park on Undercliff Street and Anderson Park off Kurraba Road are both a short walk for a run-around, and the on-lead harbour path around Kurraba Point makes a good finish.

Best on a weekday morning before the brunch rush claims the lane tables. Good for a relaxed, well-priced feed with the dog settled beside you.
