The Naked Fox Wine Bar, Kitchen & Café

The Naked Fox is a European-style wine bar, kitchen and cafe on West Swan Road in Henley Brook, with a cosy courtyard that welcomes dogs. It is a relaxed all-day option in the Swan Valley, strong on breakfast and coffee, and the staff have a name for being friendly to dogs.

The setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor courtyard seating, which is shaded and easy to settle into. Water bowls are provided for visiting dogs, so you can travel light. Indoor seating is the usual food-venue exception, so plan to sit outside.

Known for. Some of the better pancakes in the valley, plus gourmet toasties, eggs benedict and a good coffee list that runs to specialty options like a Biscoff latte. It reads as a morning-into-lunch place rather than a late-night one.

Getting there. Address is 12050 West Swan Road, Henley Brook, with ample on-site parking, so arriving with a dog in the car is straightforward.

When to go. Breakfast and mid-morning are the calm, cooler stretch, which suits a dog settling in the courtyard. It sits well as the first stop on a valley loop before the wineries fill up.
