Maple and Myrtle

Maple and Myrtle is a retro-inspired brunch cafe on the Old Princes Highway in Nairne, and dogs are welcome under the verandah out front while you eat.

The setup. Dogs are kept to the outdoor verandah seating rather than indoors, which suits a food service kitchen. Keep your dog on a leash and settled beside the table; it's a small footpath-style area rather than a fenced courtyard, so a well-mannered dog matters more here than at a big beer garden.

Known for. Good coffee, a solid brunch menu with gluten-free options, and a cosy vintage fit-out. Corn fritters and the bacon and egg roll come up often in reviews.

Getting there. It's at 72 Old Princes Highway, Nairne, with free street parking along the highway and a nearby free car park.

Go for an early brunch before the verandah tables fill, and bring your own water bowl just in case - confirm with staff on the day if they're topped up and ready for a thirsty dog.
