Brisbane's Dog-Friendly Riverside Cafe

Most venues relegate dogs to a patch of concrete near the footpath. At Bliss on Riverside, your dog is a welcome guest — not an inconvenience. Our sprawling outdoor terrace sits directly on the bank of the Brisbane River in Tennyson, with enough space to stretch out, watch the water, and enjoy a long, unhurried brunch together.

We're one of the few dog-friendly cafes in Brisbane with genuine river views from the outdoor seating area. The deck faces directly onto the Brisbane River, with a tree-lined foreshore perfect for a post-brunch walk.
