A bayside craft brewery and taphouse at 298 Beach Road, serving house beer and cider alongside Argentine-inspired food, directly opposite the Black Rock foreshore. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor area, which makes it a solid sunny-day stop after a beach walk.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outer outdoor seating facing Beach Road and the bay; inside the main restaurant is generally off-limits to dogs. Access from the street to the outdoor tables is flat and easy. Make yourself known to staff on arrival for an outdoor table. Water bowls are not confirmed, so bring your own.

Good to know. The draw is the house-brewed beer and cider, hearty Argentine-style plates including steak and seafood tacos, and the bay views across the road. It gets lively and busy on weekends and warm days.

Getting there. Free street parking is generally available on Beach Road and nearby residential streets, though it fills on sunny weekends.

Max's takegerman shepherd
Outdoor tables are first-come on busy days and there is no dog booking, so arrive early on a warm weekend rather than counting on a spot.

Nearby with the dogs. The Black Rock foreshore and the Bayside Coastal Trail run directly across the road, with Half Moon Bay and the Cerberus wreck a short walk or drive away.
