OMG you guys. I totally wiped out AGAIN. I was walking to a cafe for dinner and the floor was wet and I slipped and fell which would have been hilarious if it wasn't so goshdarn painful. And then of course the waitress in the cafe rushed out and said, 'what happened?' as I was on the floor wincing in pain. Hmm. What do you think? I'm doing my mid evening yoga obviously!!!
Anyway, more importantly was the cafe I went to for dinner - Happenstance Cafe! My colleague told me about it so I thought I would check it out. It's a spacious and quite clean (or at least cleaning-looking) dog-friendly cafe at 35 Opal Crescent. This is my first time visiting any pet cafe and aside from falling over, I'd say it was a pretty decent experience.
The good...
- I had the aglio olio and the boo had a cheese and tomato based pasta and both were quite yummy
- We had an affogato ice-cream that also rocked
- The food was quite affordable, think my aglio olio cost $10 and was a good serving size
- You can customise your own pasta which is great for fussy eaters
- The dogs were mostly all chilled out and doing their own thing when we got there so Nacho didn't turn into the raving lunatic he normally is
- It was well-lit, and the patrons were generally quite considerate
- DOGS RUNNING FREELY!! WHEEEEEEEEEE!
The bad...
- One of the waitresses appeared to be nervous/afraid of dogs. I'm not quite sure why she would choose this place of employment. Perhaps she's trying to get over her phobia but seriously she looked panicked.
- Last order was at 9pm and we were a little late so they had sold out their cottage pie (for humans, dog versions still available but come on I have some standards) and their chocolate lava muffin
- It's all parallel street parking and not very many so we had to go around a couple of times, and you can't just wait because it's a one lane one-way street
- I think they only had one chef so the order comes one after the other rather than at the same time
The ugly...
- Don't get me wrong, I love dogs, but they poop and pee at random. Which means you can be nomming away on your aglio olio and then a giant stinky turd appears under your table next to your right foot like its a gift from the heavens brought specially to you.
Final score: I would recommend. Of course I went there on a weekday night pretty late. I imagine over the weekend it might probably turn into a doggie rave.
Thanks for reading!
