Planet 72 Icecreamery

Planet 72 Icecreamery is an award-winning ice cream shop at 402 Esplanade, Torquay, opposite the beach at the Hervey Bay foreshore. It is a quick, casual stop rather than a sit-down cafe, and dogs are welcome at the outdoor seating, which makes it an easy treat on a beach walk.

The dog setup. Dogs are permitted in the outdoor seating area. It is a high-traffic spot beside a busy footpath, so keep your dog on lead and to one side. Bring your own water bowl, as this is a takeaway-style counter rather than a full cafe.

Good to know. Planet 72 trades on its huge range of flavours and has been named one of Australia's best ice cream shops. Expect queues at peak times in summer and on weekends.

Getting there. Street parking runs along the Esplanade and the nearby side streets. It can be busy, so off-peak visits are easier with a dog.

Nearby with the dogs. The beach and the long Esplanade pathway are directly across the road for a walk before or after. Check the council signs for on-lead and off-lead sections along the foreshore.
