The venue's own wording is that well behaved dogs on leashes are welcome, so leads on at all times in both the lawn and veranda areas.

About Flying Brick Cider House

Flying Brick is a cider house on the Bellarine Highway at Wallington, between Geelong and the Ocean Grove beaches. There is a wide open lawn, a covered veranda and a retro fitted restaurant inside. Leashed dogs can sit with you on the lawn, which takes walk ins only, or on the veranda, where the venue recommends booking ahead and flagging your dog. The restaurant interior is closed to everything except service dogs, which is the usual arrangement under Victorian food rules.

Which dogs it suits

Small Medium Large Giant

A clear, specific policy published by the venue that names exactly which two areas take dogs, plus a genuinely large lawn to spread out on. Held at four because no dog amenities such as water bowls are advertised and the lawn offers limited shade.
