St Ivy Cafe

St Ivy Cafe is a waterfront spot on The Promenade in South Morang, popular for lake views over coffee and a breakfast menu that runs from eggs benedict to a potato rosti burger.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor dining area, which is spacious enough to fit a lead and a water bowl next to your table without crowding other diners. Indoors is for people only, so plan on the courtyard side if you're bringing a dog. Confirm current seating arrangements at busy times, as outdoor tables can fill fast on weekends.

Known for. The waterfront lake outlook is the drawcard here, along with a broad breakfast and lunch menu.

Getting there. Street parking is available along The Promenade, with more public parking near the surrounding lakes and parkland. It's an easy walk in from the lakeside path.

Nearby with the dogs. The Promenade's waterfront path is right outside the door for a stroll before or after your coffee, and Delacombe Reserve Fenced Dog Park is a short drive away if your dog needs to run off some energy.

When to go. Go early on weekends to get an outdoor table with a lake view before the breakfast rush fills the courtyard.
