Royal Copenhagen Port Noarlunga

Royal Copenhagen Port Noarlunga is a Danish-style ice cream and coffee spot at 13 Saltfleet Street, a short stroll from the beach and jetty, and it goes out of its way for dogs with its own dog-safe scoop.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the covered outdoor seating area, which has spots to hook a lead on while you order. Water bowls are usually out, and the shop is known for banana and yoghurt based ice cream cups and biscuits made specifically for dogs.

Known for. Homemade ice cream and gelato, hot donuts, a self-serve toppings bar and a big flavour range, all a few steps from the sand.

Getting there. Free street parking and a nearby free car park serve the shop, though both fill up fast on warm weekends. It sits in the middle of the beachside village, easy to reach on foot after a walk on the beach.

Nearby with the dogs. The beach and jetty are directly opposite, and the Onkaparinga River mouth is a short walk away for a longer lead walk. The Flour Store, another dog-friendly cafe on the same street, is worth pairing with a visit here.

Go early on a summer evening if you want a table in the outdoor area, since it fills quickly once the beach crowd arrives.
