Rústico At Hay Shed Hill

The lead. Rustico at Hay Shed Hill is a rustic vineyard restaurant in the heart of Wilyabrup, built around shared tapas and wine pairings, and it is genuinely dog-friendly. Dogs are welcome at designated outdoor tables on the verandah, but the dog-friendly tables are limited, so booking ahead and flagging your dog is essential.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome at designated outdoor tables on the covered verandah and patio overlooking the vineyards, not in the main indoor dining room. The outdoor area is spacious, with room for a dog to relax beside you. Water bowls are typically available and staff keep doggie treats on hand. Book ahead and say you are bringing a dog, since those tables go fast.

Good to know. The signature is a five-course shared tapas menu showcasing local produce, paired with Hay Shed Hill wines or a gin and beer list. The setting is a relaxed working vineyard, and the adjacent Hay Shed Hill cellar door is also dog-friendly for a tasting before or after lunch.

Getting there and parking. Find it at 511 Harmans Mill Road, Wilyabrup, with ample free gravel parking right by the entrance and flat access to the outdoor dining area.

Nearby with the dogs. The adjacent Hay Shed Hill cellar door pairs naturally. Quiet country roads suit an on-lead walk, and Gnarabup and sections of Yallingup beach are a drive away; check signage.

When to go. Book in advance for the tapas service, especially weekends. Good for settled dogs happy through a long shared lunch.
