Book NowAbout Vincent The Dog
Tucked behind a quiet Drummond Street facade, this dog-welcoming Carlton hangout pairs sunny courtyard seating with an unexpected culinary switch. By day, coffee runs alongside customizable bagels and hearty breakfast spreads while pups mingle under the tables out back. After dark, the kitchen pivots entirely to Caribbean staples—smoky jerk chicken, pimento heat, and slow-simmered curry goat cut with scotch bonnet spice. Attentive floor staff gladly tailor plates to tame the pepper or accommodate dietary needs, serving up coconut and banana sides when the jerk jackfruit runs hot.
- Dog-Friendly Courtyard: Features a cozy open-air back garden with around half a dozen tables where dogs are warmly welcomed alongside brunch guests.
- Customizable Bagels: Build your own breakfast bagel or choose from preset spreads with ample vegetarian options and robust coffee.
- Caribbean Dinner Service: Evenings flip to authentic island flavors centered on scotch bonnet heat, jerk chicken, and tender curry goat.
