Gather on Hay

Gather on Hay is a breakfast-and-lunch cafe set in a character building on Hay Street in West Perth, with a leafy back garden that is the drawcard for dog owners. Dogs are welcome in that alfresco garden, a sheltered space away from the street.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcomed in the spacious garden and alfresco area at the rear, accessed through the cafe. The building interior is generally not open to pets, so the garden is your spot. It is quiet and sheltered from Hay Street traffic. Bring your own water bowl, especially in warmer months and at busy times.

Good to know. The menu leans towards healthy breakfast and lunch with a good spread of vegetarian options. Weekdays run 7am to 5pm and weekends 8am to 2pm, with weekend brunch the busiest window. The garden setting suits a long, relaxed sit.

Getting there. The cafe is at 1222 Hay Street, West Perth. Street parking is available along Hay Street and nearby side streets, though much of it is paid or time-restricted during business hours, so check signage. The Green CAT bus route along Hay Street is within easy walking distance.

Nearby with the dogs. Kings Park and Botanic Garden is a short drive or a decent walk away, with extensive on-leash trails. The leafy West Perth streets nearby also make a pleasant pre- or post-brunch loop.

Come on a weekday or early weekend if you want the garden to yourself. Good for dogs that settle happily in a calm, shaded outdoor space.
