Gigi’s Kiosk at Waverley Park

Gigi's Kiosk sits at 6 Cavenagh Boulevard, right beside the Waverley Park lake and playground, which makes it a natural coffee stop on a walk rather than a sit-down destination.

The dog setup. It is a casual kiosk: order at the counter and take a seat in the undercover outdoor dining area, where dogs are welcome. Water bowls are generally out for canine visitors. Because it is right on the walkways, you can just as easily grab your order and carry it to a park bench with the dog.

Good to know. This is a family-run Italian kiosk known for loaded focaccia sandwiches, pastries, barista coffee and gelato. It gets busy and popular items can sell out, so go earlier if there is something specific you want.

Getting there and nearby. Street parking runs along Cavenagh Boulevard and the surrounding Waverley Park streets. Dogs are allowed in the open grassy areas around the fenced playground, and the lakeside boardwalk makes an easy scenic loop before or after your coffee.

Come mid-morning on a weekday for the shortest counter queue and the fullest cabinet.
