Okie Dogie

Okie Dogie is a gourmet American-style hotdog joint in the Rochedale South Village shopping centre on Underwood Road, known locally for its hotdogs and Cajun fries. It is a casual counter-service spot rather than a sit-down restaurant, and its outdoor seating in the plaza has been shown with dogs on the venue's own social media.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor seating area of the plaza. There is no confirmed indoor pet policy, and rules can vary shop to shop in a shared centre, so check with staff at the counter when you arrive. Bring your own water bowl, as on-site water for dogs is not confirmed.

Good to know. Regulars rate it for the gourmet hotdogs, Cajun fries and friendly counter service.

Getting there. It's in the Rochedale South Village plaza on Underwood Road, with ample free parking in the shopping centre car park.

Nearby with the dogs. Baroona Park Off-Leash Dog Area is about 400 metres away, a good spot to let a dog stretch its legs before or after eating.

When to go. A shopping centre plaza can get busy around usual lunch and dinner hours, so an off-peak visit gives outdoor tables more breathing room. Good for a quick bite with the dog rather than a long, lingering meal.
