Riversmith

Riversmith is a rustic-industrial cafe and restaurant at 122 Bussell Highway, right on Margaret River's main pedestrian strip, and it welcomes dogs in its alfresco seating. It is a handy town stop for coffee, brunch or a casual lunch with the dog at your feet.

The dog setup. Dogs on leads are welcome in the outdoor alfresco seating along the Bussell Highway frontage. Indoor seating is kept for service dogs, so settle in outside. Water bowls are usually available in the outdoor area, but a portable bowl is worth bringing on a warm day.

Good to know. Riversmith is known for South West produce, good coffee and a strong breakfast and lunch offering, with a prime people-watching spot on the main street. Being right on the pedestrian precinct, it is easy to reach but can be busy at peak brunch times.

Getting there and parking. The address is 122 Bussell Highway. There is street parking out front and public car parks behind the main-street buildings, and it is an easy walk from central accommodation.

Nearby with the dogs. Margaret River Rotary Park has riverside trails a short drive away, and the leashed-dog sections around Prevelly and Gnarabup are a 10 minute drive for a beach walk afterwards.

Go early for a quieter footpath table, especially on weekends when the brunch crowd builds and the main street fills up.
