Bartons

From speciality coffee and homemade cakes at 7:30am to more than 20 wines, cocktails and an evening flatbread menu from around 5pm, this Dockhead spot pulls off the rare trick of being a proper neighbourhood haunt from breakfast through to last orders. Owners Steve and Barbara keep things warmly independent — expect outdoor seating, a dog-friendly welcome complete with puppuccinos, and a cosy Library available for private hire.
