Marina Coffee

A marina-side coffee spot that actively welcomes dogs. Marina Coffee sits in the Breakwater Marina precinct off Mariners Drive, near The Strand, with indoor and outdoor seating and a clear view across the yachts. The owners make a point of welcoming dogs - their own line is that every pup is family.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor and patio seating. Staff are known to put out water bowls and sometimes a puppuccino, and the setting is quiet enough to suit a settled dog. Bring your own bowl as backup.

Known for. The marina outlook, the relaxed waterside vibe, and a straightforward breakfast and lunch menu with coffee. A handy stop on a Strand-and-marina walking loop.

Getting there and parking. Off Mariners Drive at Breakwater Marina. On-site marina parking is available, with more along Mariners Drive and near The Strand. Walking paths connect through to the foreshore.

Nearby with the dog. The Strand parkland and boardwalk are right alongside the marina for an easy on-lead walk, with adjacent green space and a paved waterfront path.

When to go. Sunny mornings on the outdoor patio are the pick for watching the boats. Good for a calm, longer sit by the water.
