Piccolo Me Greenway (Canberra)

Piccolo Me Greenway is a fast-casual coffee spot in the Greenway commercial area beside Lake Tuggeranong, trading on strong coffee and a big, indulgent menu. It works well as a quick stop on a lakeside walk with the dog.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor tables, with inside reserved for service dogs. The seating is geared to quick, casual dining, and there is room to set a water bowl beside the table. Bring your own bowl to be sure.

Good to know. The pull is high-quality coffee alongside a crowd-pleasing menu of milkshakes, Nutella-heavy sweets and hearty breakfast and lunch plates. Its spot near the lake and local shops makes it a handy break mid-walk.

Getting there. Public parking is available across the surrounding Greenway shopping district, including time-limited street parking, and it is a short walk from the Lake Tuggeranong foreshore.

Nearby with the dogs. The Lake Tuggeranong walking trail runs nearby for a longer on-leash loop, and the fenced Greenway Dog Park is close by for an off-leash run.

When to go. Quieter outside the weekday coffee rush, which suits an easy break with the dog after a lap of the lake.
