SAMESAME SUPPLY

SAMESAME Supply, known locally as the Shed, is a 1970s Southern-California-themed cafe right on the Gold Coast Highway at Miami. It leans into a casual, hang-around feel, which makes the open-air seating an easy place to settle with a dog.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor areas, which have a rustic, open-air, lounge-around setup. Water bowls are generally on hand in this relaxed, community-minded spot, but bring your own to be sure on a busy morning.

Good to know. It is known for good coffee, elevated Japanese street food and grab-and-go snacks, plus a games shelf with board games and books if you are settling in. It trades daily from early morning to early afternoon, so it is a breakfast-and-lunch venue.

Getting there. The address is 2166 Gold Coast Hwy. Street parking is limited and spread across the surrounding streets and the highway frontage, so check the signs. It is an easy walk or ride if you are local to Miami.

Nearby with the dogs. Miami Beach is a short walk east for a post-coffee run, and the tree-lined residential streets nearby make for a pleasant loop. Check beach signage for off-leash times.

Best mid-morning on a weekday when you can claim a shaded spot. Good for dogs who are happy to lounge while you linger.
