Stanley's Cafe / Restaurant

Stanley's is a long-running cafe and restaurant at 48 High Street in central Shepparton, doing all-day breakfast, lunch, homemade cakes, and Albanian dishes you won't find elsewhere in town. For dog owners the draw is the covered laneway, a sheltered spot to sit with your dog out of the sun.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor areas, and the covered laneway alongside the cafe is the comfortable place to settle. It's table service in that space, so keep your dog tucked beside you and out of the walkway. Bring your own water bowl; treats aren't a given.

Good to know. Reviewers single out the egg and bacon rolls, poached eggs on sourdough, and eggs benedict, with consistently warm service. The kitchen winds down around 2pm and it's closed Sundays, so make it a morning or early-lunch plan.

Getting there. On High Street, a main central road, with free street parking usually nearby. Saturday mornings are the busy stretch.

Nearby with the dogs. Victoria Park Lake and its walking tracks are a short drive or brisk walk away for a wander before or after.
