Roy Hammond

A cocktail bar and Asian-fusion kitchen at 24-28 Armstrong Street North, Roy Hammond is mostly an indoor venue, but its footpath tables put it on the list for a drink with a settled dog at your side.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor tables on the footpath along Armstrong Street North. The intimate indoor bar is not a dog space, so this is street-side only. The path is narrow and the street is busy, so it suits a calm dog that is fine with passing foot traffic. Bring your own bowl.

Good to know. The draw is the spirits wall, a long whisky and tequila list, paired with Korean fried chicken, gyoza and banh mi. It works best as a relaxed lunch or early-evening stop rather than a late session with a dog.

Getting there. It sits in Ballarat's Armstrong Street eating strip, with street parking nearby plus several city car parks within an easy walk.

Best earlier in the evening before the bar fills and the footpath narrows. Good for one drink with a steady dog, not a long stay.
