Fishtales Seafood Cafe

Fishtales Seafood Cafe on Obi Obi Road is a casual, long-standing spot for fresh seafood in the Mapleton village. For dog owners the useful part is the covered alfresco area, where dogs are welcome and can sit shaded while you eat.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor and alfresco seating. The covered area keeps pets out of the sun, and access from the street is easy. Staff will often bring water for a dog, but bring your own bowl to be safe.

Good to know. The cafe is known for fresh, locally sourced fish and chips, grilled fish, homemade burgers and potato scallops. It typically opens for lunch and dinner across the back half of the week, so check hours before a midweek trip.

Getting there. Fishtales is at 11 Obi Obi Road on the main road through Mapleton, with free street parking along the strip and easy walking access from the village.

Nearby with the dogs. Mapleton Lilyponds and its fenced off-leash dog park are a short walk or drive for a stroll before or after the meal. Dogs are not permitted in Mapleton Falls National Park.

The village is quiet and easy to potter around on lead, so pair a meal here with a Lilyponds walk to make an afternoon of it.
