Bensons Cafe

Bensons Cafe sits on Summer St, the main strip in central Orange, and is a popular early-opening brunch spot. For dog owners the footpath tables out front are the draw: an easy, central place to tie up a coffee stop on a town walk.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor and front footpath tables, leashed. Indoors stays people-only. Staff are generally happy to bring out a water bowl, but pack your own in case.

Good to know. Toby's Estate coffee and a broad brunch and lunch menu, busy with locals and visitors. The footpath seating is open to the street rather than covered, so it is a fair-weather plan.

Getting there. 240 Summer St, central Orange. Free street parking out front, though it fills through the morning peak; side streets and council lots are the backup.

Nearby with the dogs. Robertson Park and Cook Park are both a short walk for a green stretch before or after.

Best mid-morning on a dry day, after the early rush has thinned. Good for a quick leashed coffee stop rather than a long sit.
