Iconic Cafe

Iconic Cafe sits at 115-117 South Gippsland Highway in Tooradin, a renovated white cottage operating as a roadside stopover for travellers heading toward Phillip Island. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor seating area.

The dog setup. Dogs stay outdoors, with indoor seating reserved for human customers only. Keep your dog on a lead and under control at all times. The cafe is on the main highway, so a secure lead is non-negotiable. Bring your own water bowl, as there is no confirmed on-site water bowl program.

Good to know. The same operators behind the former Old Jetty Cafe run Iconic, which opened in 2026 in its place. Expect comfort food, coffee, cold drinks, smoothies and milkshakes in a cottage that is designed to feel like home. It draws locals and tourists alike as a convenient Gippsland Highway pit-stop.

Getting there. Parking is roadside on the highway. It is described as easy and accessible, though no specific bay count or off-street lot is confirmed.

Stop in before or after a Phillip Island trip. If you want to stretch the legs afterward, the Tooradin Foreshore and jetty area is a short drive away off Foreshore Road.
