Well that was disappointing.....
Today is our first visit to Mugdog Cafe. I had called ahead to our visit and asked about this new addition to the park, I was told it was a dog friendly cafe so was excited about popping in today.
Sadly and despite what's advertised I found an outdoor picnic space. The actual cafe is inside, lovely and warm but this does not allow access to dogs, unless they're working dogs.
They advertise a waitress service, where you pop into the cafe and someone comes out to take your order, again this isn't what happens in reality. I had to go through the shop, into the cafe. If I'd been on my own with the dogs, I'd have had to leave my dogs unattended.
I was further disappointed when I was charged the same price for my food as the customers in the cafe for what was in essence takeaway food.......To top it off as I sat outside it began to rain......
As a dog owner I enjoy being able to include them as often as I can. Sadly my anticipation about a new dog cafe proved premature. This isn't a dog cafe, yes it's a thoughtful gesture to include a seated area for dog owners and their pets but nothing more.
One of the stars I awarded was for the discussion I had with the owner...after listening to me they refunded the cost of the meal, acknowledging that they have some teething issues. Hopefully these get ironed out but I won't be rushing back, anytime soon.c read more
