8 things to check

1Booking & access

  • Booking channel: walk-in is the norm.
  • Walk-in note: Walk-in..
  • Pet-friendly hours: same as the venue’s general hours (per OpenRice).

3Dog play area / pet zone

The de-facto pet zone is the indoor seating; the layout is the regular restaurant floor, with indoor seating. The FEHD licence confirms dog-friendly access; staff routing of pet parties is reported in the OpenRice reviews.

6House rules — the law vs. the field

  • Leash length ≤ 1.5 m (FEHD baseline).
  • No dogs on dining tables or bar counter seats (FEHD rule).
  • 1.5 m exclusion from any open buffet / salad bar — not applicable here (per the OpenRice menu).
  • Dangerous Dog Regulation (Cap 167D) breeds excluded by law; the FEHD permit does not override the parent ordinance.

7Practical tips
  1. Walk in — no booking widget; arrive outside the peak window to grab the pet-friendly row.
  2. Carry the AFCD e-licence (iAM Smart) — operators can ask.
  3. Bring a portable water bowl and mat — only the amenities listed above are confirmed.
  4. Aim for the outdoor row where staff are reported to seat pet parties.
  5. Check the OpenRice booking notes for any size or count caps at the time of booking.
  6. Plan a relief walk before or after the meal — the FEHD licence does not extend to a relief area on the premises.
  7. Do not bring a Cap 167D “Dangerous Dog” breed.
