Lily Paris French Café & Pâtisserie

Lily Paris French Café & Pâtisserie is a French bakery and coffee stop at 4 Zephyr Mews in the Mandurah Ocean Marina, and dogs are welcome at the outdoor tables along the marina walkway. The cabinet of croissants, crêpes and macarons plus a boardwalk right outside make it an easy pastry run with the dog.

The dog setup

Dogs sit with you at the outdoor waterfront tables on the paved walkway, not inside the café. The tables sit directly on the marina path, so keep your dog leashed and settled beside your chair while prams and passers-by move through. Staff are used to dogs at the waterside tables, but bring your own water bowl on warm days rather than counting on one.

Worth knowing

The Dolphin Quay listing has the café closed on Mondays, trading from 8am to 3pm Tuesday to Thursday and from 7am on Friday to Sunday. Baking is done in house: almond croissants are the regular favourite, crêpes come sweet or savoury, and the cabinet runs to macarons, mini crème brûlées, chocolate mousse and a Black Forest slice. Savoury plates cover croque madame and French toast, with coffee and teas alongside. It suits a shorter visit rather than a long sit-down meal.

Getting there and parking

The address is 4 Zephyr Mews in the Dolphin Quay precinct. Parking around the marina is free and the walk from the car park to the walkway tables is flat, or you can arrive on foot along the boardwalk from the Mandurah foreshore.

Close by with the dogs

The marina boardwalk runs past the door for a leashed loop past the boats. In the same precinct, Springbok Kitchen and Oysterbedz both keep dog-friendly outdoor seating if you want to stay for a proper meal, and Turquoise is another café option in Mandurah for your next coffee run.

Max: I hold court by the walkway railing while the almond croissant disappears. Boats, crumbs, coffee. That is the whole morning sorted.
