Honey’s

Honey's is a corner cafe at 1/105 Skene Street in Newtown, the kind of relaxed local spot with vinyl on the turntable and coffee people cross town for. Dogs settle at the street-side outdoor tables, which makes it an easy stop on a Barwon River walk.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor seating on the corner. Being a corner block, there is decent room to tuck a lead out of the walkway. Staff are accommodating, but bring your own bowl for water when it is busy rather than count on one being free.

Good to know. The coffee is the headline, and the food is well regarded, with the carrot cake a regular mention. Cafe service runs daytime, with dinner on Friday and Saturday nights.

Getting there. Street parking is available on Skene Street and the quieter residential streets around it. It is an easy walk from Pakington Street and the river.

Nearby with the dogs. The Barwon River trails are a short stroll away for on-lead and off-lead walking, and Pakington Street is close for a longer wander past other dog-friendly cafes.

Come mid-morning on a weekday for the calmest table. Weekends draw a crowd to a small corner site, so timing matters if you want your dog to relax.
