One of the standout things about this dog friendly restaurant is that it doesn’t just tolerate your four-legged companion — it actually welcomes dogs inside. That’s a rare and wonderful thing, especially in a full-service restaurant and bar setting.

Gender-neutral restrooms are also available, which speaks to the inclusive and thoughtful atmosphere the team has worked to create.

When it comes to paying, visitors have plenty of flexibility with credit cards, debit cards, and NFC mobile payments all accepted. Delivery is not currently offered, so this is best experienced in person — which, honestly, given the setting and the dog-friendly perks, is the way to go anyway.
