Scramble And Bean

Scramble And Bean is a park-side cafe at 7 Waratah St, right on the edge of Rushcutters Bay Park next to the tennis courts, and it has built a genuine reputation as a dog-friendly breakfast and brunch spot with water and park views.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the open-air outdoor seating area, which looks over the park and water. Standard, well-behaved dogs on lead are fine here, and the cafe is well known locally for being accommodating to dogs. Bring your own bowl if your dog needs a steady water supply during a busy service.

Good to know. Known for parmesan scrambled eggs and solid coffee, with a good vegan and vegetarian range. Open daily 7am to 2:30pm, so it suits a post-walk breakfast rather than dinner. Live acoustic music often runs on weekend lunches, which adds to the crowd, so expect it busier then.

Getting there. Free street parking is available on Waratah Street and nearby residential streets, but it gets tight on weekends. It is an easy walk through Rushcutters Bay Park itself.

Nearby with the dogs. Rushcutters Bay Park is right outside the door for an on-leash wander with harbour views, and Reg Bartley Oval is next door for more open space.

Go on a weekday morning if you want a quiet table. Weekend lunches get loud fast once the live music starts.
