Haven Broome is a specialty coffee and brunch cafe at Shop 17, 8 Short Street, set against Paspaley Plaza in the middle of Chinatown. It opens at 6:15am every day of the week, which makes it a natural first stop before the Kimberley heat sets in, and dogs are welcome at the outdoor seating where the plaza action is. With a 4.8 rating across nearly 200 reviews it has become one of Broome's breakfast draws.
The dog setup
Dogs join you at the outdoor plaza seating rather than inside. It is a busy, foot-trafficked part of Chinatown, so keep your dog on a short lead and comfortable with passing pedestrians. Water bowls are generally available or provided on request, a genuine help in the Broome warmth, but carry your own as backup and confirm seating with staff on the day since the tables are shared plaza space.
Worth knowing
The coffee is Little Owl Coffee Roasters, and the kitchen goes well past toast: the signature Half and Half pairs a yoghurt and fruit bowl with smashed avo, feta, beetroot relish and poached egg on sourdough, alongside a breakfast burger, corn fritters, pulled pork eggs benedict and chilli scrambled eggs, plus vegetarian and vegan plates. The kitchen closes around 1pm and the cafe wraps at 2pm, so this is a breakfast and lunch venue.
Getting there and parking
Short Street runs through the heart of Chinatown, with free undercover and rooftop parking at Paspaley Plaza. Everything from the cafe is a flat, short walk.
Close by with the dogs
A stroll through Chinatown suits a dog on a lead before the day heats up, and Matso's Broome Brewery keeps its pet-friendly garden seating going through lunch. At Town Beach and Cable Beach, Shire of Broome rules allow dogs in designated zones but require a leash near boat ramps, footpaths and the camel rides, and exclude dogs from zones near the patrolled surf club area, so read the signage at your access point. For more coffee, The Green Mango Cafe and Molly's BakeHouse are both local options.
More picks are on the WA dog friendly cafes guide and the Broome destination page.
Pepsi: 6:15am opening means we had the plaza almost to ourselves. Water bowl arrived before my human's coffee did.
