    Lexi's Cafe & bar seats dogs at its outside tables, and it opens at 7:30am on weekends.

  2. #2Cafe Raon for matcha and a Japanese-style brunch with a dog

    $$๐Ÿ• Dogs outside๐ŸŒณ Valentine Sports Park, 4 min walk

    Cafe Raon lets dogs sit outside and serves a Japanese-style menu that the other picks do not match. Order the Oyako Sando, which is crispy katsu chicken and egg on soft shokupan, or the grilled chicken poke bowl. The matcha is weighed and whisked to order with Uji matcha, and the iced matcha latte is the drink to try. Weekday hours run to 3:30pm, and Saturday hours are 8am to 3pm. Valentine Sports Park is a four-minute walk, so the walk and the lunch fit into one visit.

    $๐Ÿ• Dogs outsideOutdoor seating

    The Stage Door Espresso is a small coffee stop beside Bella Vista Metro station, with outside seating where dogs can sit. It opens at 6am on weekdays, so it suits an early start with a dog. The made-to-order toasted sandwich is a solid lunch option, with halloumi and pesto in it. Visitors say the drinks are well made and that service stays quick for a group. This cafe has no confirmed park nearby, so a walk needs planning separately.
