Sandy paws welcome at the dog friendly Sandy Pantry Cafe! Tucked right inside Clontarf Reserve next to the swimming enclosure and the park, this little takeaway kiosk is basically a dog walk’s best friend. Roll up after a big beach run, let your pup sniff every blade of grass, then reward yourselves with fresh-made burgers, rolls, salads, pastries, and seriously good coffee — all served up fast.

All dogs are welcome here, and the four-legged regulars are treated to 100% natural air-dried kangaroo treats to keep them buzzing while you refuel. With the reserve, the water, and the park all on the doorstep, this spot practically begs for a long, lazy morning with your dog.

Pack the lead, hit the reserve, and make Sandy Pantry your next post-walk ritual.
