Olympic Circuit Cafe

Olympic Circuit Cafe is a fast, walk-up cafe in a commercial pocket of Southport, popular with early risers, tradies and cyclists. It is a takeaway-focused spot with casual outdoor seating where dogs are welcome, so think coffee-and-a-wrap on the way past rather than a long sit.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor tables and on the footpath out front, where you can tie a lead securely to a chair or table leg. Dogs stay outside the indoor ordering and food-prep area. As a busy takeaway spot, water provision is not a given, so bring your own bowl. One person ordering inside while the other waits outside with the dog is the easy play.

Good to know. The menu runs to all-day breakfast, hefty wraps, burgers, hot dogs and chips, with barista coffee, juices and smoothies. The selling point is fast, fresh service.

Getting there. The cafe is at 1/7 Olympic Circuit, slightly off the beaten track. On-street parking is out front and on nearby streets, though it fills during the weekday morning rush.

Nearby with the dogs. Musgrave Park, with its off-leash area, is a short drive or easy walk for a proper run. Broadwater Parklands is a few minutes east for leashed coastal paths.

Best outside the weekday morning rush, when parking is tighter. Pair it with a Musgrave Park run to make a morning of it.
