Non Stop Coffee

Non Stop Coffee is a drive-through and walk-up coffee spot on Ruthven Street in the Toowoomba CBD, built for speed rather than a long sit-down. Dogs are welcome at the compact outdoor seating, which suits a quick stop.

The dog setup. Dogs join you at the small outdoor seating area; the indoors is not for dogs. The space is tight and sits on a busy street, so it best suits a settled dog that copes with passing traffic and foot traffic. Water bowls are not guaranteed given the drive-through setup, so bring a portable bowl.

Good to know. It is known for quick service and good coffee, with breakfast snacks, sandwiches and treats. It opens early, around 5am on weekdays, which is handy after a dawn walk. If your dog rides happily, the drive-through lets you grab coffee without unloading.

Getting there and parking. The address is 5/320-322 Ruthven Street. Free street parking is available on nearby side streets.

Nearby with the dogs. Queens Park is a short drive or a moderate walk for a proper on-leash stretch, and the CBD streets are fine for a quick stroll.

When to go. Early, when the street is quiet, is the calmest time for a dog at the kerbside tables. Grab the coffee and walk the dog at Queens Park after.
