Ploughmans

The short version. Ploughmans on Hovell Street is a cafe, picklery and providore in Wodonga's cultural precinct, with an undercover outdoor area where dogs are welcome. The focus is regional produce and good toasties.

The dog setup. Dogs join you in the undercover outdoor area, which you can reach from the street without walking through the indoor dining room. Staff often bring out a water bowl, but ask if you need one and carry your own as backup.

Good to know. It is well regarded for Reuben sandwiches, toasties, a strong vegetarian line-up and a much-praised carrot cake, with good local coffee. It opens Tuesday to Saturday for breakfast and lunch, closed Sunday and Monday, so check current hours before heading in.

Getting there. It is at 118 Hovell Street. Street parking is available but can be limited on weekdays, with a wheelchair-accessible entrance and parking.

Nearby with the dogs. Belvoir Park is close for an off-leash run, and Gateway Island offers walking paths along the Murray River a short drive away. Good for a relaxed bite between walks.
