From brunch spots to garden cafes, here are the dog friendly cafes in Jakarta where you can hang out with your city pooch.
We know the drill – you want to go for a weekend brunch and bring your stylish little pup along, but you don’t know which places are pet friendly… The Big Durian is far from naturally friendly to our canine babies, so while narrowing down awesome places to hang out in the city, we went the extra mile to do the legwork and find out which spots are welcoming to our fur babies. So if you can’t bear to leave our little Boo at home, head to our favourite dog friendly cafes in Jakarta!
THE BEST DOG FRIENDLY CAFES IN JAKARTA
1. KOI
After serving hungry city-siders for over 20 years, KOI is officially a Jakarta icon. The Kemang branch of this family friendly eatery (yep, that includes your fur babies too!) is definitely one of our go-to Sunday morning hangouts. Their delish brunch offerings include hearty home-style dishes, just like home. Our fave nook? Their pet friendly patio so your pups can have a breezy afternoon…
Koi Kemang, Jl Kemang Raya No. 72, Kemang, p. +62 811 810 0026, e. [email protected]
2. HONU
Yep, your friendly neighbourhood poké bowl and matcha bar welcomes your four-legged fur babies too! Kick back with a matcha latte and when it’s their turn for a treat, there’s a pet store next door. Your pup will feel right at home.
HONU, Jl Kemang Selatan Raya No. 125, Kemang, p. +62 21 7179 3580
3. Sophie Authentique
We love Sophie Authentique’s delicious French pastries – their almond croissants are our favourite in town – and we love Sophie’s even more for being 100% pet-friendly! We’re always stepping in post walking our pups around the Kemang Dalam neighbourhood, and the staff are always ready to greet their cutest guests with a cold bowl of water as a refresher. Merci!
Sophie Authentique, multiple locations across Jakarta.
4. Caswell’s Coffee
Caswell’s Coffee has just recently opened up on the outskirts of Kemang, and this specialty coffee roaster and cafe is not just dog-friendly, it actually has a spacious outdoor dog park where you can let your pup run loose and mingle with other doggies.
Caswell’s Coffee, Jl RS Fatmawati No 15A, Gandaria Selatan, Cilandak, p. +62 812 2345 4644
5. Turning Point Coffee
It may be a little bit out of the way, but Turning Point Coffee is definitely worth the trip. Whether it’s their immaculately roasted cups of brew, their delicious treats on display, or their calming minimalistic interiors you prefer, this cosy café is perfect for a lazy weekend afternoon. Not only is this awesome coffee house pet friendly, they actually encourage dog owners to bring their pups along to the party!
Turning Point Coffee, Jl Ki Hajar Dewantara, Ruko Golden 8 Blok G No. 5
6. Antipodean Coffee
As one of the forerunners of Jakarta’s now buzzing café culture, Antipodean Coffee remains one of Jakarta’s most popular brunch spots. Located in the Hero Kemang compound, this small café boasts excellent coffee and a chocolate cake that is to die for! You can perch yourself on one of their outdoor seatings so your canine can join along too.
