50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Vancouver

“Overall experience here was great! The food was super fresh, customer service was on point as expected and the atmosphere was incredibly lively. There’s so much happening here which can get a bit overwhelming, especially with all of the clashing sounds. You’ve got the main music, birthday celebrations with tambourines and the hand pulled noodle guy that walks around with his own speaker! On top of that, it’s also incredibly busy. The only thing that genuinely made my table uncomfortable was the noodle guy. He came to our table and hit our friend in the face and head with the noodle multiple times. At first it was funny, but as it kept going we got increasingly more uncomfortable. He hit all 3 of us in the faces and the entire experience made us feel really weird. Other than that, everything else was great. The waiting area is super spacious and they have lots to do to keep you distracted and busy while you wait!“

“Reservations for 10 in the bar to celebrate my mom’s birthday-the staff were great and food was amazing as usual !“

“*Special event on...everyone is still kind and quick to help. Retail of any sort isn't easy but they make it look like it is!*

Awesome place with Vancouver's best beer. It's crazy how good round after round of new creations are made. Patio is nice, inside is spacious and bright.“

“Great service. Great Food. My go to place for Thai food!“

“Amazing service from Olivia. This lady is one of the best if not the best servers I have ever had at any restaurant bar-none!!“

“This is my daughter's favorite place. We came over after the JFL show where she crushed it on stage. They were packed and managed to fit us in once I told them the exciting story. Everything about this place feels like a warm hug. If you can get a reso, RUN, don't walk there. YUM!“

“some great deserts and pastries here, very nice and quiet place to relax on robson street, the mango was excellent and a must try for mango lovers, the red velvet had a little too much icing and not enough cake but we been there a few times and will be back“

“Absolutely amazing! My favourite go to sushi spot since 2021 since it’s so close to my home. Staff is nothing but lovely and food is always great. The yam roll is a fan favourite amongst all my friends. Really enjoy the food and the atmosphere and service!“

“I was here before the renovation, it was really good then, now that they are 100% plant based i thought it would different, nope! Its still amazing!! I highly recommend the fully loaded sammy!
The new side they opened is absolutely beautiful! My friend i come with is celiac, she approves ! They really care about the difference between celiac and gluten free diets.“

“great food and great service, very friendly“

“Highly recommend! Food, services and the environment are PERFECT!!! Definitely will recommend to everyone around me!“

“What a cool place! Loved spending time with the kitties and trying the menu“

“I just bombed my midterm and then came straight to Browns to be greeted by Dia, and she made the rest of my night better 😭 If you ever get Dia as your server you won’t be disappointed.

Atmosphere was amazing! Thanks Browns :P“

“めちゃめちゃうまかった！Had sockeye salmon don and saikyo-zuke tara don both came with unique satisfying flavours and totally made our day. So appreciative of their efforts to offer such high-quality meals. You can tell generous good people running this place for sure which made me feel good being there. Cafe space is a part of office building foyer nice and open space (when building entrance locked you can buzz then building security lets you in). Oh did I mention matcha latte the flavour is very similar to what you would find on streets in Kyoto - simple goodness.“

“The first thing that hit me was how clean the venue was. The staff was very friendly. We chose the prix fixe. The steak was one of the best I’ve tasted because there were no tough bits at all and the sauce was SO good. The side salad was well balanced. I am GF so I asked for veggies on the side and they gave me these grilled mushrooms that were very addictive. The cocktails were delicious and my husband’s wine was so good.“

“Amazing creme brûlée ❤️ Cute little shop, with a lovely atmosphere“

“Maxine’s is the best! Best brunch, best dinner 💯“

“Cute little casual Italian spot!
Staffed by a lovely man who wears all the hats — host, server, and chef. We had the Bolognese and the Beef Mushroom Pappardelle, and everything was yummy. Cozy atmosphere, generous portions, and warm, personal service. We’ll definitely be back! 🍝🇮🇹“

“Great Bubble tea and dessert place

I enjoyed my caramel pudding fresh milk tea with pearls, and also the little custard filled dessert (Taiyaki) that comes as a combo.

The store offers a stylish ambience and there are some boardgames offered, I find that's inviting.

Only sad thing: They make you order on a touch screen and that removes the in-person interaction with their staff. The machine still asks for a tip...“

“Stopped by Kramky Cafe for the first time today and I’m really glad I did. It’s in my neighborhood but a bit out of my usual route, so this was my first visit and definitely not my last.

The two staff working today were incredibly kind and welcoming, which immediately set a good tone. The place has a great vibe. It’s cozy, small, and very much a neighborhood café feel, with nice music playing in the background that makes you want to slow down and enjoy your coffee.

I had their drip coffee, which was really good, and I liked that they use Moja Coffee, a solid Vancouver local roaster. I paired it with a sugar-free berry muffin, and the only sweetness comes from the banana, blueberry, and pineapple. It tasted clean, light, and surprisingly satisfying. Perfect for breakfast without feeling heavy. Best of all, come early around 730 and you’re in for some warm baked goods fresh from the oven!

Overall, great coffee, thoughtful food, kind service, and a relaxed neighborhood atmosphere. I’ll definitely be back to try something else next time.“

“Adorable little cafe with amazing sandwiches on fresh baked foccaccia. They also have panini sandwiches and espresso drinks. Comfortable indoor seating, chill vibes, and friendly staff. I had the Marseille sandwich, which was turkey and brie on foccaccia. It was huge and enough for 2 meals, for $17. Unlike some nearby cafes that we passed on, they make the sandwiches to order instead of serving them pre-made.“

“Today I have an Americano（12 oz）with an extra shot of espresso（total 3）👍👍👍“

“Wonderful 60th Bday celebration today and excellent food! Definitely would come back!!“

“We sat and our waiter brought dishes. An excellent experience. A tad loud as there are lots of tables in a small space. Cocktails listed were numerous - ok on the taste. Overall, recommend!“

“Absolutely LOVED their plant based menu! Very much recommend the oyster mushroom “calamari” 😍“

“My husband and I shared the California Burrito! It was sooo delicious!!! The cheese on the outside was heavenly!!!“

“Do not expect to get a table here. There were only 2 seats when we visited, so expect to get takeout. The waiting time for takeout was only 15 minutes on a Saturday for lunch.

We got 5 rolls, and the fish was very fresh and from Japan. Our favourite roll was the Yuki House Roll which is 5 pieces, but generously stuffed full of multiple fish. The Salmon Oshi was also pretty good, but a little too much sauce for our preference.

Would recommend if you're craving really fresh takeout sushi.“

“A wonderful neighborhood cafe and bakery! Everything we had was delicious and the community vibe was strong. Lots of happy people and dogs outside!“

“Had dinner here with my friends last week and everything was amazing! The food was delicious, and the staff were all very friendly. Zoey was our server and she was outstanding and made our experience even better. We ordered the pho, soft-shell crab, and lobster roll. Every dish was excellent. The pho broth was especially tasty, and the noodles were just like the ones I atein Vietnam!“

“Oh my gosh, wow. So good.“

“Excellent the best“

“Maria’s Taverna had a great ambience and delicious food. I shared appetizers meat balls, spanakopita and taziki and hummus! So delicious I took a doggie bag home for my chicken souvlaki. Thanks I definitely recommend!“

“My mom and I visited on Christmas for brunch and it was delicious! I loved the interior/decor and the whole theme of portraits that you can actually purchase. (I loved the bathroom sink!) I got the mushroom hash and my mom got the bacon eggs benedict.

I loved the hash, the potatoes were tasty, the mushroom and onions were good and there wasn't too much cheese as I am not a huge fan of cheese. Sourdough toast was good. I don't like sunny-side eggs though so I just ate the whites. It came with a lot of sour cream, salsa was nice. My mom loved her dish and again potatoes were yummy!

There was a line up so we waited over 30mins I think but we were given a small tea while we waited. There is very limited seating as the place is quite small. But certainly cozy once seated! Even the table was art! Staff was super friendly! We will be back again“

“Beth is one of the kindest people I know, and has created a great community hub. She initiated setting up Leg-In-Boot Square live music, with picnic tables and patio umbrellas. She does many good works, and helps many people. AND her baking & cooking are fabulous. The view is great, too.“

“Came for the first time on St. Patrick’s Day. I ordered ramen and requested to remove veggies. I tried Yokohama Iekei Ramen & Karaage on my first time here. I ended up eating karaage without dipping the tartar sauce because it was better without any sauce.“

“I liked it a lot. It was a great experience.“

“Just had the chicken burrito made by Karan, and it was absolutely delicious! The flavors were perfectly balanced — tender, well-seasoned chicken, fresh ingredients, and just the right amount of spice. You can really tell it was made with care. Everything was wrapped up perfectly, and it held together without being soggy or dry. Easily one of the best burritos I’ve had in a while. Great job, Karan.“

“February 10th, 2023 was such a tiring day. I had classes at UCW till late and, as a good hungry taurine, I had to eat something delicious to make me feel well. Also, it had to be mandatorily vegan, so I would also keep my mind in peace. While searching for a restaurant with vegan options, I saw this sushi one, called Cofu Pressed Sushi. It was not far from UCW Vancouver House (around 15 minutes by bus) and it would be open till 9:00 PM. So, I decided to go there. I called my husband and we met there. The restaurant is not that large, and they have just a few tables, just the way I like it. But the best, in my opinion, was that it was so clean, fragrant, and decorated with such a good neatness that I felt a cozy mood as soon as I entered. Nevertheless, we were very well welcomed by the server, and he explained the whole menu to us. Besides they former factors I mentioned, the latter is the most important in my opinion. The way I am hosted and treated in any commercial place makes the whole difference in my final perception. I took the Aichi combo from the Omakase Menu. This combo had plant-based tuna (made of jackfruit), tofu, avocado, fresh mix veggie, and a sauce made of vivid beets and spicy mayo. As for my husband, he chose the Ofu combo. It had plant-based salmon (made of carrot and konjac), pumpkin, eggplant, red & yellow bell pepper, and a sauce made of cilantro, cucumber, and wild carrot. As the picture shows, the dish presentations were so beautiful, showing the food as something delicate, that the sushi master really took care of it. Last, but not least, the taste. It was so delicious! Every bite mattered to me. I was hungry, but I took every sushi slowly to feel all flavours and had the best sensory experience. For some the amount of food may look little, but I guarantee it made me fill satisfied. As a whole, I felt really delighted and I wish to return there soon to order the other options.“

“I’m not usually one for hotel or office building coffee shops but I was in a rush and decided to try. I was impressed. My Americano misto was delicious with beautiful foam and the portion size on the breakfast sandwich was huge!! Not what I expected. I’m glad I didn’t order something else. I would have been too full. If this place was a stand alone and not tucked into a corner it be 5 star all day!!“

“A highly recommended brew pub from friends who have visited Vancouver. Great friendly staff and a busy place on a Friday night and I would suspect all the time.
Terrific local brews but, sadly, their kitchen was a bit rushed and my FISH AND CHIPS selection was disappointing. Chips were terrific .....cooked crisp as requested with a lovely flavour but the fish batter wasn't drained properly and fried too thick which overwhelmed the taste and completely lost the fish.“

“With impeccable attention to every last detail from the Japandi-inspired zen like interior to each of the carefully curated artisanal offerings, in a world of ubiquitous coffee shops SLO Coffee has created something refreshingly different.“

“Great cocktails and excellent service“

“This was a wonderful restaurant for me and my boyfriend to go to for valentines day. The atmosphere was nice and dim-lit but it wasn't too fancy where we felt out of place. We were sat next to the fireplace which was beautiful and they had the olympics playing in the back on TV's! The location in Granville island and on the water is perfect for a date. Our waiter was named Yevhen and he was absolutely wonderful! He seemed to always be there when we needed him, was incredibly kind and was very knowledgeable about the menu. Our food came so unbelievably quick, I was so impressed. I got the Raspberry Crush cocktail which was delicious. Highly recommend this restaurant. Amazing food, service and location. Thank you Yevhen for making this a memorable night!“

“Friendly staff. Quick service. Tasty Food. Perfect breakfast spot. No wait on a Sunday late morning.“

“My first visit and it was exactly how my friend describes it, great atmosphere with even greater food for one’s palette“

“If not the BEST, one of the best pizzas anyone can have! There is a lot of variety and options to choose from whether gluten free or not. Gluten free comes in on one size fyi. You can also enjoy high quality desserts as well as gelato. This specific location also serves alcohol! Be sure to try their negroni as it's so smooth to drink. The staff is professional, and helpful including the business owner who came and say hi to us in our visit, and strike a genuine conversation with us which is much appreciated.“

“93 Coffee is welcoming, great food and drinks and a lovely bright location in the Denman Mall.. Highly reccomended“

“Our go to when we visit the city! Delicious food!“

“Absolutely wonderful staff, beautiful location and cool hotel.“

“Skylar was an awesome server! The food was fresh and super tasty. So glad we tried it!“
