Dog-friendly coffee in Ashbury before a weekday run
Start at 3 Tomatoes on Holden Street, which opens at 6:30am on weekdays. Order a coffee and take an outside table, since dogs can sit only there. Reviewers call the coffee consistently good and the service friendly and quick. Then walk the 4 minutes to Peace Park for the run. The off-leash area gives a dog room to run, the open grass suits a runaround, and the park has dog drinking water and poo bags for owners, and it also has a playground and public toilets. For a weekend, the same park works as the start of a longer outing.
Weekend in Ashbury: a big run at Peace Park, then breakfast
Begin with a long run at Peace Park, which covers 5.52 hectares and has an off-leash area for dogs to exercise without a lead. An observation tower stands on the hill in the park, and the picnic area suits a longer stop before the walk. Then walk the 8 minutes to First Street Pantry, a neighbourhood cafe and deli on First Street, and arrive around half past nine. Its breakfast and all-day brunch are the strongest part of the menu, and the pantry brioche roll, the salmon bowl and the salted caramel iced coffee are the orders to make. The cafe closes at 2pm on weekends, so leave time for breakfast to finish well before then. The dog rules that apply to both outings come next.
