There’s something special about sipping your favorite latte with your pup by your side—and the Triad area of North Carolina (Greensboro, Winston-Salem, and High Point) is full of dog-friendly cafes that welcome your furry companion.

Here are a few of the best spots for your next pup-friendly outing:

☕ Greensboro

Tate Street Coffee House – A cozy local spot near UNCG with plenty of shaded patio seating for you and your pup.

The Green Bean – Centrally located downtown with an artsy vibe and sidewalk seating. Bonus: they often host events, so it's great for people (and pup) watching.

☕ Winston-Salem

Krankies – Known for their amazing coffee and Southern brunch, their patio is dog-welcoming and full of character—perfect for candid photos.

Camino Bakery (Downtown) – Another Winston favorite with sidewalk seating and a friendly atmosphere.

☕ High Point

DeBeen Espresso – A hidden gem with a great coffee selection, chill patio, and dog water bowls always on hand.

Carolina Coffee Roasting Company – Less known but super pet-friendly. They love when pups stop by!

🐾 Photography Tip:

Coffee shop patios can make for adorable lifestyle photos—think you, your pup, and a warm drink under the string lights. If you’re interested in casual “day-in-the-life” photos of you and your dog, I offer relaxed sessions at many of these locations (just ask first about any permission or crowd timing!).
