   The Trail puts its tables outdoors on New South Head Road, close to the passing traffic. Dogs can sit at the outside tables, and table service is offered if you prefer not to walk in. Order the sourdough bacon and egg, which two customers single out, then stay out for a smooth coffee made with Little Marionette beans. A smoothie menu and a vegetarian option sit alongside. A two-minute stroll gets you from The Trail to the reserve.

   Rocco's has outdoor seating on Laguna Street, and dogs can sit outside with you. Customers describe the room as calm and not too busy in the early morning, which suits a slow table outside. Cappuccinos and mochas are praised, and one says the beans are Allpress. An almond latte and a brownie are a good pairing for a long sit. A children's menu and a vegetarian choice make it workable for a mixed group. It opens at 6am Monday to Saturday.

3. #3Parsley Bay Cafe Kiosk for outdoor tables beside the reserve

The hamburger is the dish two customers name, and the falafel wrap covers the vegan choice. One customer finds the soy latte tasty, and the coffee overall is well regarded. It opens at 8:30am every day and closes at 3pm.
