Memorial Weekend


  • The Dog Spot 19 S Main Street Joseph United States (map)

May 23 thru 27: Thurs, Fri, Sat 11-7, Sun 12-4, Mon 11-6

208-610-4932

We are a small cafe with limited seating. No reservations. First come, first serve. Outdoor seating is available when weather permits. We make all meals to order, this is not fast food. Please plan for a leisurely meal as wait times can get long.

We do not have room to seat more than 5 people in a group - and sometimes we cannot accommodate that size. We do serve food for all of our posted business hours, so planning a meal at a non-conventional mealtime is a great way to be able to enjoy our food. And we traditionally have more seating available between traditional meal hours.
