A welcoming space where dogs and cats can roam freely. The atmosphere is cosy and comfortable, with sockets and free Wi-Fi available for work. Food and drinks are enjoyable, and staff are generally friendly, though you may need a little patience to get their attention when they’re busy in the kitchen. Desserts and alcohol are also available if you’re just looking for a quick treat or drink. Prices are affordable, with no GST or service charge.

I've been coming to this cafe for over a year and a half now, and it’s hands down my favourite hangout spot. The owner and staff are incredibly friendly and genuine pet lovers who always put our fur kids first. The vibe is casual and welcoming, with a warm community of like-minded pet lovers. It’s the kind of place where both you and your pup feel right at home, with many pups roaming freely and sharing their joy with everyone. What makes it extra special for me is how much it’s helped my dog grow. He’s learnt to open up and socialise with other dogs here, and it’s been so heartwarming to watch his confidence bloom all thanks to the freedom and love he gets in this space. Highly recommend for any pet parent looking for a happy and loving environment to relax and bond with their furkid.

Fries is crispy. Mushroom soup is flavourful and the bread has a nice crunch yet fluffy. The salted speculoos ice cream is great with the waffle. Iced salted caramel latte and iced gula meleka latte is great too! They have menu for furkids too and it’s indoor pet friendly :)

Cafe is pet friendly and serves good food. Sunday can get busier but they have enough tables and seats. The food is good, burgers, egg sandwich and coffee all taste good. Best is the ambience as owner is friendly and nice to patrons and pets.

First time here and left with great impression. Food was very good, coffee was great. Staff was friendly and gentle with the animals. It doesn't feel like a regular pet friendly cafe, where their food isnt that fantastic, or space is tight. Will definitely come again.

I hardly ever go to cafes but it was my first time here and I really love how the place is so lively and the owner of the shop is so friendly, caring and compassionate. Due to mobility issues we had a huge stroller and she even helped me bring it up. She made sure my fur baby was okay throughout because we sat outside for a period of time and she was so kind with her words to me until I was about to tear and I told her "okay don't say already" If I ever do have another dog in future I'll definitely come back and I'll recommend this place to all my furparent friends :)
