Chermside Tavern

A traditional local tavern on Gympie Road, right beside Westfield Chermside, with a sports bar, gaming lounge and hearty pub meals. Dogs are welcome in the designated outdoor area rather than inside.

The dog setup. Dogs are permitted in the outdoor section, on-lead and well-behaved. Indoors is service dogs only. Water bowls are sometimes put out, so pack a collapsible one to be safe. Worth knowing: the outdoor area doubles as the designated smoking area, which may not suit every dog or owner.

Good to know. Expect pub classics - steaks, schnitzels, burgers - competitive drink prices, and a loud, lively atmosphere driven by the sports and gaming crowd. It is a functional spot for a feed with the dog, not a quiet cafe stop.

Getting there. Find it at 1/740 Gympie Road, Chermside, with on-site parking for patrons and the adjacent Westfield car park as a backup (mind the time limits).

Nearby with the dogs. Marchant Park is within walking distance for green space and paths, and Seven Hills Bushland Reserve is a short drive for a longer walk.
