Dog-friendly cafes in Marrickville, ranked

    $🐕 Dogs outsideOutdoor seating🌳 Enmore Park, 4 min walk

    Double Tap Coffee on Smith Street has outdoor tables where dogs are welcome, and Enmore Park is the nearest green space for a loop. The cold brew and the filter coffee are the reason to stop. The savoury menu is built on sourdough, so a toasted sandwich is the sensible order to share. It is a weekday stop, with hours on file from 6am to 3pm Monday to Friday, so plan the walk for the morning.

    Best for: Morning dog walks and takeaway coffee

  2. #2Algorithm Cafe for a breakfast with a dog at your feet

    $$🐕 Dogs outsideOutdoor seating🌳 Braddock Playground, 4 min walk

    Algorithm Cafe on Marrickville Road has outdoor seating where dogs can sit, and Braddock Playground is the park for a loop before or after. Matcha and coffee lead the drinks, and the breakfast plates suit a slow start. The scrambled eggs on toast with a sausage are the plate to order. It opens at 6am on weekdays and at 7am on weekends. Families with children use the same outdoor tables, so it can fill up at the weekend.

    Best for: Breakfast with a dog and slow mornings

  3. #3Seven 2 Three Specialty Coffee for a Sunday walk and a toastie

    $$🐕 Dogs outsideOutdoor seating🌳 Newington Road Playground, 4 min walk

    Seven 2 Three Specialty Coffee on Addison Road has dog-friendly outdoor seating, and the toasties are the food to order. The kimchi toast is named most, and the Vietnamese grilled chicken with brown rice is the lunch choice. The milk coffee is the drink to get. The cafe is open seven days from 7am until 3pm, so a Sunday morning walk can end here. Newington Road Playground is the nearest park for a run around.

    Best for: Sunday walks and lunch with a dog

  4. #4Coffee Alchemy for a coffee with a dog out front

    $🐕 Dogs outsideOutdoor seating🌳 Wicks Park, 2 min walk

    Coffee Alchemy on Sydenham Road has outdoor seating at the front, where dogs are allowed, and Wicks Park is the nearest park. It is the dog stop for a coffee alone. Order an espresso or a manual brew, and take home the house blend, called Goodness Galileo, in a bag. It serves no breakfast or lunch, so bring a snack for the dog walk. It opens at 7am on weekdays and from 9am until 1pm on Sundays.

    Best for: A coffee alone with a dog

  5. #5Bespoke and Grind for pies with the dog tied up outside

    $$🐕 Dogs outsideOutdoor seating🌳 Marrickville Park, 1 min walk

    Bespoke and Grind on Livingstone Road bakes pies each day, and the outdoor tables are the main place to sit because inside seating is limited. Marrickville Park sits a one-minute walk from the front door. The big breakfast and the healthy bowls are the orders to make. Opening is before 7am on weekdays, so an early walk fits in. Bring the dog to the front tables.

    Best for: Early walks and pies outside

  6. #6Coffee Drip Cafe for eggs on toast after a walk

    $🐕 Dogs outsideOutdoor seating🌳 Ness Park, 2 min walk

    Coffee Drip Cafe on Livingstone Road runs a kids menu, and its outdoor tables take dogs. Order the eggs on toast or the cheese toastie. The beans come from Melbourne, which one visitor points out is rare in Sydney. Ness Park is the closest park, and the cafe opens from 8am on Sundays. A board lists Greek frappes and smoothies for the warm walk home.

    Best for: Post-walk breakfast and family groups

  7. #7Vesbar Espresso for a big breakfast outside

    $🐕 Dogs outsideOutdoor seating🌳 McNeilly Park, 2 min walk

    Vesbar Espresso on Warburton Street is the dog pick for a big breakfast. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor tables, and McNeilly Park is the nearest park. The bacon and egg roll on a fresh bun suits a morning walk. Coffee gets good and great mentions across the past few years. Parking is hard to find on busy days, a few visitors say, so allow time to park.

    Best for: Big breakfasts with a dog

  8. #8Basiq Cafe for chilli labneh eggs and a playground stop

    $$🐕 Dogs outsideOutdoor seating🌳 Newington Road Playground, 4 min walk

    Basiq Cafe on Addison Road has a few outdoor tables in the sun, and Newington Road Playground is a quick walk off. Order the chilli labneh eggs with sourdough toast, or the pork belly sandwich. The chai latte is the drink one visitor favours. It opens at 6am every day until 2:30pm, so a dog walk before the playground works well. Plates come large, and prices feel fair for what arrives.

    Best for: Early outdoor brunch near a playground
