Pack your pooch – where to find Brisbane’s best dog-friendly cafes and bars

Dogs are so, so great. They are the most pure creatures on earth and we do not deserve them. Right, now that that’s out in the open we can get down to business – people with pooches are generally keen to take their furry mates everywhere they possibly can, but unfortunately the world we live in is sometimes cruel and prohibitive. It’s ruff (!), but we’ve taken paws (!!) and done the digging (!!!) to sniff out (!!!!) Brisbane’s best dog-friendly cafes and bars. From dedicated hashtags to pup-centric treats, these venues appreciate that it’s a dog’s life.

James Talty

His handiwork is embedded in the design of Scout at Petrie Terrace and Botanica at Red Hill, his minimalistic style bringing out the natural beauty of the timber. Stripping back his process to bare essentials of what the design is required to do, James Talty crafts custom-made furniture for the home and business. Tucked along Musgrave Road in Red Hill, his studio may have caught your eye as you fly past towards Ashgrove or Spring Hill, since its opening six months ago. A self-taught craftsman, James was a city planner, working in an office environment for eight years, before following his desire to do something more creative. James grew up around woodwork. He says his father was very handy and passed down his hand tools to James, which he uses in his workshop. His designs subconsciously look to mid-century Danish and Scandinavian style, mixed with an Australian rustic feel, each piece crafted from salvaged and plantation wood. The Weekend Edition caught up with James to talk weekends and inspiration.
