There’s a charming shift happening in the way we spend our leisure time: dogs are now invited to join us at almost every turn, with canine inclusivity becoming a quiet marker of hospitality at some of the capital’s most stylish and welcoming morning spots.
In 2025, London is positively brimming with venues that rise to this occasion and the capital is quickly becoming one of the most dog-friendly cities in Europe. So, whether you're looking to enjoy a lazy Saturday morning with your pup or a stylish breakfast date, we uncover some of the best dog-friendly cafés London has to offer.
Pawsitive Café, Notting Hill
Found in the heart of Notting Hill, Pawsitive Café is much more than a dog‑friendly brunch spot. The café is a wellness-inspired haven, extending well beyond the usual bowl of water by the door, with calming pastel interiors, a canine brunch menu and even a doggy play area.
Pups can choose from a menu that offers customisable bowls, beef steak and even a “pawtisserie” selection that comes with pupcakes and a dog-friendly afternoon tea. The human menu is also thoughtfully crafted, featuring a range of Malaysian-inspired dishes alongside brunch classics such as pancakes, French toast and Eggs Benedict, all served with freshly brewed coffee.
Paws for Coffee, Hampton Hill & East Sheen
Just a stone’s throw from Bushy Park, Paws for Coffee in Hampton Hill and East Sheen is the embodiment of canine-centred hospitality. Founded by professional dog trainer Louise Rawlinson, this café transcends a mere dog‑friendly status, it is unambiguously dog‑loving. Both human and canine guests receive curated menus, patrons can choose from high‑quality coffees, gluten‑free breakfasts or artisan wraps, while dogs are treated to puppuccinos, dog sausages and an array of homemade biscuits.
Love My Human Townhouse, Chelsea
Founded by a Royal College of Art graduate with a background in luxury design, Love My Human Townhouse offers creativity and canine comfort all under one roof. Originally a boutique pet shop and luxury grooming salon, the Townhouse has grown to include a stylish dog-friendly café, a wellness centre and dog daycare. The café is open daily and offers an indulgent menu for humans, with brioche toast and poached eggs, alongside a canine menu offering everything from sushi and birthday cakes to turkey meatballs and butternut squash purée, all designed by a qualified dog nutritionist.
Cuppapug, Hackney
Set beneath the arches in Hackney, CuppaPug is a joyful, light-hearted café dedicated entirely to the charm and mischief of pugs. Designed in soft pink tones with playful details, it offers visitors the chance to spend an hour in the company of its resident dogs, affectionately known as VIPs (Very Important Pugs).
The menu reflects the theme with humour and heart, featuring pug-inspired cakes, smoothies and colourful drinks, along with dog-friendly treats such as puppuccinos and pug-shaped biscuits. On special Puppy Days, guests can also meet and play with pug and French Bulldog puppies from CuppaPug’s rescue partner, Pearl’s Legacy.
Snuffle Dog Café & Wine Bar, Sydenham
Located in Sydenham, Snuffle Dog Café & Wine Bar offers an experience where dogs and their owners can indulge in a little luxury together. Founded by Silvia Fois, the venue celebrates the special connection between humans and their canine companions. While expert groomers attend to your dog’s every need, ensuring they leave looking their best, guests can enjoy a meticulously brewed coffee from Old Spike or savour a glass from the café’s carefully selected wine list.
For those seeking a stimulating environment for their dogs, Snuffle’s doggy daycare provides ample space for off-lead play, socialisation and supervision by an attentive, dog-loving team.
The Table Cafe, Southwark
In the heart of Southwark, The Table Café has established itself as a choice for brunch for both pets and owners. The café is best known for its award-winning menu and offers an elevated take on brunch favourites, fluffy ricotta pancakes, rich eggs Benedict and a variety of vegetarian and vegan options, all prepared using locally sourced ingredients. Dogs are enthusiastically welcomed, often forming a sociable little gathering of their own in the café’s outdoor seating area.
Bluebird Restaurant, Chelsea
Situated just off the King’s Road, the Bluebird Restaurant is a relaxed retreat from Chelsea’s lively pace. With all-day menus that blend modern European influences and a reputation for an exceptional Sunday roast, the café maintains a loyal local following. Guests can indulge in a brunch menu that features French toast, eggs Benedict and truffled croque monsieur with the option to add bottomless Mirabeau bubbles. Its courtyard is particularly appealing for dog owners, welcoming well-behaved pups at the manager’s discretion.
Farm Girl Café, Notting Hill, South Kensington, Soho
With locations in Notting Hill, South Kensington, and Soho, Farm Girl Café has become a favourite among dog owners seeking healthy, feel-good food in a stylish setting. Inspired by Australian café culture, it offers a wellness-focused menu featuring açai bowls, vegan lattes, and signature dishes like avo toast and the rose latte. With its bright, stylish decor, nutritious bites and relaxed atmosphere, Farm Girl is as photogenic as it is pet-friendly and most branches include dog-friendly courtyard seating, making it easy to unwind with your pup in tow.
Pavilion Café, Victoria Park
For those east of the City, Pavilion Café in Victoria Park offers a different sort of luxury. Housed in a charming domed structure beside the lake, it’s a favourite among locals, particularly early risers and park-goers with dogs in tow.
The breakfast is impeccably sourced and unfussy, featuring sourdough with jam, spicy baked eggs and buttery pastries alongside consistently good coffee. Outdoor seating stretches along the water’s edge and the pace is slow and unhurried, making it an ideal prelude to a long morning walk.
In a city that continues to evolve around lifestyle and inclusivity, London’s brunch culture now proudly embraces its four-legged patrons. From playful pug cafés to elegant townhouse retreats and wholesome park-side hideaways, these venues reflect a growing appreciation for the bond between people and their pets. As more establishments open their doors to dogs, we can see a small but meaningful shift, where mornings are savoured in good company, both human and canine.
