The General Sherman (TGS)

The General Sherman (TGS) is a trendy cafe and licensed bar tucked under the Wexford Medical Centre in the Murdoch health precinct. The deciding factor for dog owners is the shady outdoor seating at footpath level, where well-behaved, leashed dogs are welcome.

The dog setup. The outdoor area is the primary spot for dogs, though community feedback indicates staff may allow dogs inside in some cases. Staff are accustomed to pets, but keep your dog leashed and clear of the tight pathways, as the medical-centre foot traffic stays heavy.

Known for. Highly-rated coffee, cold brews and iced drinks, plus a food menu spanning a signature double-beef burger, truffle fungi bruschetta, crispy chicken katsu and poke bowls. The licensed bar serves cocktails, beer and wine, making it popular with after-shift hospital staff.

Getting there. 2/3 Barry Marshall Parade, Murdoch WA 6150. The Murdoch Health Care Car Park (Gate 2, Barry Marshall Parade) often offers 30 minutes free, and street parking is available but can get busy. Murdoch train station is within walking distance.

There is no specific dog menu, so bring a collapsible water bowl for a quick coffee stop. For other dog-friendly cafes in the area, consider The Little Parry in Bull Creek or LA Moon cafe in Kardinya. A practical, solid choice for hospital-precinct workers or a coffee run before heading elsewhere.
