Bluebottles Brasserie

Bluebottles Brasserie is a busy, licensed all-day cafe and restaurant at 73 Beach Street, Woolgoolga, a few minutes from the beach. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor tables, which makes it a reliable spot for breakfast or lunch with a dog after a foreshore walk.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor seating along the footpath and street frontage. Indoors is generally reserved for service animals only, so plan to sit outside. Staff are used to dogs and water can usually be requested, though bringing your own bowl is the safe bet on a warm day.

Good to know. This is one of the town's most popular eateries, known for all-day breakfast and lunch, corn fritters, a green papaya salad and a well-regarded burger, with coffee to match. It draws a big crowd, which is worth planning around when you have a dog with you.

Getting there and parking. The address is 73 Beach Street. Street parking is available on Beach Street and nearby blocks, and there is a beach-side car park on the main street that is often easier at busy times, with a short walk over.

Nearby with the dogs. Woolgoolga Beach and the foreshore paths are a few minutes' walk away, so a stroll before or after the meal is easy. Check on-site signage for the current off-leash zones and times.

When to go. It gets very busy on weekends and public holidays, when an outdoor table with a dog is harder to land. A weekday morning is the calmer choice.
