Sippy Social

Sippy Social is a community cafe in the heart of Sippy Downs, near the Village Green, and it is one of the more genuinely dog-welcoming spots in the suburb: well-behaved dogs are allowed inside as well as out, which makes it a year-round option rather than a fine-weather one.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome both inside and in the casual outdoor area. Water bowls are usually on hand, and the cafe often has dog treats going too. Because indoors is on the table for a well-mannered dog, it works when the weather turns.

Good to know. The draw here is brunch and coffee: the eggs benny gets named a lot, the coffee rates well, and there is a regular rotation of fresh baked goods. Live music turns up on Saturdays, so if you want a quiet coffee with the dog, a weekday is calmer.

Getting there. It sits at 38 Central Drive, moments from the Village Green. Street parking runs along Central Drive.

Nearby with the dogs. The Village Green is a short walk away for a green stretch before or after coffee, and the leafy paths around the University of the Sunshine Coast campus are close by for a longer loop.

When to go. Weekday mornings are the calmest for a dog. Save Saturday for when you want the live-music buzz and do not mind sharing the room. Good for owners who want the indoor option on a wet or hot day.
