A dog-friendly café in Taipei — with its own Dog Parking

Yes, NOR Coffee is dog-friendly. The specialty café on Chifeng Street (Datong District, Taipei) has a “Dog Parking”: a shaded leash post with a water bowl out front, and indoor dog parking for well-behaved dogs. The café shares its name with NOR, a lazy coffee-loving dog mascot, so dogs are part of the concept rather than an afterthought.

Updated · NOR Coffee

“all you need is coffee. and your dog.”

all you needis coffee.and your dog.

That line is NOR’s whole philosophy. The shop window says it too: “ALL I NEED IS COFFEE AND MY DOG”. You probably feel that too — that is why NOR built a place for both of you to stay.

What does NOR’s Dog Parking include?

  • Leash Post + Water Bowl — shaded, right out front. Good for dogs who like to watch the lane go by.
  • Indoor Dog Parking — for the well-behaved ones, at least. Calm dogs can settle inside while you recharge.

Tips for a smooth visit with your dog

  • Keep your dog on a leash — Lane 53 opens onto the Zhongshan Linear Park and its foot traffic.
  • NOR is a small, cozy café. If your dog is nervous around people or other dogs, the shaded post outside may be the more relaxing spot.
  • Not sure where to settle? Just ask the barista, especially when the café is busy.
  • Walk first, coffee second: the Zhongshan Linear Park is at the end of the lane, perfect for a short stroll before you sit down.

Meet NOR, the laziest member of the club

NOR is the café’s mascot and shares its name: a lazy, coffee-loving dog who has perfected the art of the nap. NOR watches over the Low Battery Club — a cozy refuge for humans (and dogs) whose batteries are running low. Read more about NOR Coffee.
