The Beach House(Blackmans Bay)

The Beach House is a relaxed cafe, bar and restaurant on Ocean Esplanade, right across from Blackmans Bay beach, serving seafood and cafe classics for breakfast through dinner. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor dining area, and the bay view makes it a comfortable spot to linger.

• Dog access. Dogs are allowed on the outdoor patio, not indoors. Staff are generally accommodating, but bring your own water bowl as this isn't guaranteed to be supplied.
• Known for. Seafood, weekend brunch and a panoramic outlook over the bay. Reviewers regularly call out the combination of dog-friendly seating and genuinely good food as hard to find locally.
• Getting there. The restaurant sits directly across from the main beach area. Street parking runs along Ocean Esplanade but fills up on sunny weekends, so aim for an early sitting.
• Nearby with the dogs. Blackmans Bay Beach is right out front and is a popular walking spot, with a paved coastal path good for an on-leash stroll. Check local signage for Kingborough Council's seasonal, time-based leash rules before letting your dog off-lead, especially over summer.

Best visited outside the weekend lunch rush if you want to be sure of an outdoor table with your dog.
