How it works with your dog

As soon as you sit down, we bring water and food bowls for your dog. There are hooks for the leash, and cleaning stations with supplies all around the café. Dogs stay on a leash at all times, and every breed is welcome as long as your dog is sociable and not aggressive.

A real menu for dogs

Seven items made in house, from $4.99 to $8.99: the Pawfle, Turkey Doggets, Woof Loaf, Woof Meat Balls, homemade pup cakes, frozen yogurt with probiotics and an alcohol-free dog beer. Each one lists its ingredients, so you can check what your dog can’t eat.

“The world needs more of these! It’s wonderful to be able to bring our dogs, who are part of our family, along for lunch. The food is great (not just great for a dog restaurant, but great period), and the service is absolutely amazing.”
