Double Barrel Kitchen and Bar

The lead. Double Barrel Kitchen and Bar sits at 1 The Concourse in Benowa, a relaxed waterfront cafe and bar on the marina with lakeside views. It is a genuine dog-friendly spot for brunch or a long lunch, with dogs welcome in the outdoor deck seating. Typical hours are daily from around 7am to 2pm.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor seating area, which has lounge-style deck chairs and tables overlooking the water. Dogs are not permitted inside the indoor restaurant. Staff are known to be friendly to dogs; bring your own water bowl to be safe rather than assuming one is on hand. Confirm the outdoor area is available if you are visiting on a busy weekend.

Good to know. It is known for a coastal, casual vibe and a breakfast and brunch menu, with regulars pointing to dishes like the chilli crab scrambled eggs. Specialty coffee, cocktails and a wine list round it out.

Getting there. Address is 1 The Concourse, Benowa. There is free street parking plus a free car park, and flat, easy access from the parking into the outdoor dining area.

Nearby with the dogs. The marina concourse pathway runs right alongside the water for a scenic on-leash walk before or after. Cabana Offleash Dog Area and Scenic Park Fenced Dog Park are both a short drive for an off-leash run to burn energy first.
