Lilypad Espresso Bar

Lilypad Espresso Bar is a casual coffee spot on Holland Street with outdoor seating that welcomes dogs on lead. It is a short walk from Northgate railway station, which makes it an easy stop before or after a park walk.

Dog setup. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor tables. Staff are known to be accommodating and a water bowl is usually put out on request, but bring your own if your dog is fussy about sharing.

Known for. Espresso made with Maleny milk, breakfast burgers and caramel muffins, plus an antique shop out the back worth a browse while you wait on your order.

Getting there. Free street parking and an on-site lot are both available, and it is walkable from Northgate station if you are coming by train.

Nearby. Nundah Memorial Park is about a five-minute drive away if your dog needs a run before or after coffee.

Weekday mornings before the 9am rush are quietest. Good for a quick lead-side coffee rather than a long lingering brunch.
