• Price band: OpenRice $51–100 per person.

• 1.5 m exclusion from open buffets and salad bars (not applicable).

What the field reports:

• Small mall cafés with pet-friendly stance typically accommodate small or medium dogs on a short lead.

1. Visit on weekday lunch — quieter, more room for a small or medium dog.
2. Bring a portable water bowl — staff won’t have one.
3. Carry AFCD e-licence — the venue is on the FEHD register.
4. Order the all-day breakfast — the menu’s main draw.
5. Don’t bring a “Dangerous Dog” breed (Cap 167D) — the FEHD permit doesn’t override the parent ordinance.
6. Pick the corner bench — quieter for a small or medium dog.
7. Use a mat — the bench is metal-framed.
8. Use NOVO LAND podium / landscape for a relief walk before/after.

OpenRice 3.6/5 across 33 reviews; reviewers consistently note the all-day breakfast and the NOVO LAND convenience, with mall pricing cited as the price-band reason.
