Amazing place. Highly recommend to get there with your puppy. There is a dog menu. I bet the doggychino 😀 will be the most favourite one 😍 The coffee ☕️ is great 👍. Thank you. I loved the Tonkatsu sandwich 🥪 😋 - delicious. Plenty of free parking. There is a fenced dog park next door.

A super dog friendly cafe just opposite Blackman Park. They have pretty good coffee options and other cold drinks, I really enjoyed my Pineapple Blitz. They also have a small Japanese inspired menu which looks amazing and would love to try next time I am back there. They have a few dog friendly items on their menus for your favourite furry companion.

Right next to the off leash doggy park offering food and dronks for both humans and their furry four legged friends. 🐕 You can enjoy your coffee while watching happy doggos socialising and playing. About 4-5 outdoor tables available. Friendly staff.

Was in the area this week and decided to give Puppy Tail Café a run based off the reviews of the Tonkatsu Sando. It was pretty quite on the day I stopped by but it was midweek and not too many people around but looks like the kind of place that would be packed on weekends with families and those fit types 😳 The lady who served me was very pleasant, one tonkatsu please, that’s why I was there, love a good Katsu 🤤 After a brief wait my order was ready. I grabbed a seat and dug in. It looked great, though a tad small for $15 compared to other sando’s. Now don’t get me wrong, the flavours on this bad boy were sensational, good balance of sauce with the salad and chicken. My only gripe is that it could do with just being a tad bit bigger. It comes with a side of salted potato chips but I still felt like I needed something else to fill the gap. Maybe the serving size would be great if I was dropping a few kegs (which I do need to do) but on this day I wanted a double handgrip Sando….which this has the potential to be. Overall give this a crack if you find yourself in the area, the flavours are worth the trip alone!
