Puglia Pasta Bar

Puglia Pasta Bar is a casual Italian spot tucked into Feros Arcade off Jonson Street, doing fresh handmade pasta in a laneway setting. Dogs are welcome at the open-air arcade tables, which makes it an easy central stop for a quick pasta with the dog along.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor courtyard and laneway seating in the arcade, on lead and tucked by your side. The arcade is a high-traffic walkway, so keep your dog close and out of the path of staff and passers-by. Water bowls turn up sometimes, but bring your own given the casual laneway setup.

Good to know. It is known for simple, fresh handmade pasta in a relaxed European-laneway setting, and you can watch the chefs at work. It is largely walk-ins, with group bookings of six or more after 5:30pm, so expect to queue at peak.

Getting there. It is in Feros Arcade at 23 Jonson St, central. Paid street parking on and around Jonson Street is limited; the council car park behind Woolworths off Lawson Street is a short walk and a better bet.

Nearby with the dogs. Main Beach is a three to four minute walk for an on-lead stroll before or after, and the town footpaths make getting there easy.

Go early to beat the walk-in queue, and keep your dog snug in the laneway when foot traffic builds.
