Uncle Earl's

Uncle Earl's is a small, trendy specialty cafe at 47 Burelli Street in the Wollongong CBD, well known locally as a dog-friendly spot. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor seating, which makes it an easy coffee stop on a walk through town.

The dog setup. Dogs join you in the outdoor area out front, not in the compact interior. It is genuinely dog-welcoming rather than merely tolerant. Bring your own water bowl to be sure, as the space is small.

Good to know. The cafe has a name for some of the best coffee in town, alongside energy balls, toasted sandwiches and pancakes, in a small, arty, upbeat space with friendly staff.

Getting there. Uncle Earl's is on Burelli Street, central in the CBD. Street parking nearby is paid and time-limited; the Wollongong Central car parks are a short walk if the kerb is full.

Nearby with the dogs. The CBD streets and the foreshore paths towards the water make for an easy on-lead walk. Coniston Dog Beach, the nearest off-leash sand, is a short drive south.
