50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants West Vancouver

“One of the most beautiful cafes anywhere...like being in a cozy cabin. The coffee always perfectly prepared, the pastries fresh, and brunch is awesome. A great place to relax and treat yourself...!“

“These people are amazing. They had fantastic/empathetic customer service and had no issues making me new pizzas from scratch & delivering them asap when my original order got lost (via a 3rd party delivery service). The pizza was worth the wait ??. Thank you again. You are my new favourite!“

“I was recently did take out with a friend submitted a review suggesting that he received food poisoning from the food..I ate the same food from the same containers that he ate from and had leftovers the next day with another friend and were fine. The food was delicious ,portions were generous and when they forgot to put all the containers in the bag to take away i called them to mention this and they offered to add prawn and crab rolls to compensate for there mistake..i would not hesitate to recommend this restaurant..“

“Pros:
- excellent pizza
- gorgeous views of the harbour and ocean beyond
- you can walk up to the trestle bridge after you inevitably eat way too much pizza (it's SO good) and work off some calories
- the vibes are vibing at all times

Cons:
- if you don't get one of the tables in the covered area, there's NO shade on the lawn. Recommend to bring an umbrella or shade tent on a hot day
- the bathroom situation is lacking. While better than an outhouse or porta-potty, there is often a line for the washrooms and they are often dirty and overflowing with garbage“

“Very fast service, immaculate food presentation, a very chillz relaxed atmosphere, close to bus stop, as I’m holiday here from Sydney. The best dish I would recommend is La Vong rolls.“

“Marvelous. Fresh quality. Such nice customer service. Much love and respect to this specific location. I always order the same thing & my mum loves to order different stuff every time; never anything wrong, never any complaints & never unsatisfactory. Tysm for being a favourite location.“

“What a fantastic evening !! The service, the food, the location … could not have been any better ! We were all blown away by the attention to detail and superb service ! The food was delicious and perfect for a family gathering. Thank you very much for making the evening so memorable! 🥂“

“Amazing staff and food! 10/10 best hot pot in Vancouver, I would recommend to anyone!“

“Had a group of 6 come in late last night on a last minute request and were able to be seated easily. Amazing service from Nori and Miles who graciously served us a decorated fruit platter before we even ordered anything. The food came fast, and was delicious. We cannot wait to come back!“

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

“Really fun place to hang out and chill that the surrounding neighborhood meets up. The food is decent, but the rotating beer selection makes things interesting. Servers seem they enjoy working here and crack jokes with you. Highly recommend“

“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!!“

“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!“

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

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

“great food and great service, very friendly“

“This was the first place we came to check out when we arrived in BC for a vacation and it was the one I looked forward to the most because of the name and what it stands for, Animals Matter. Damn rights they do! I love the concept and clearly it's really popular, the place was full and people were coming and going nonstop throughout our stay there. I had an issue tasting the bacon that got drowned out by the rest of the food on my croissant, but the staff are amazing and asked if they could remake it for me. I didn't want a whole new second sandwich, I felt that was too much so I just asked for some bacon on the side so I could actually taste it. So I left happy after that.“

“The croissant and golden brick is ok. I hope they can be softer. However, the Mont Blanc is unbelievable — very unique and delicious. It has a thin chocolate crust with lemon color and lemon flavor under the chestnut paste. The little bit scents of sour made a huge difference. Will try more cakes next time“

“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! 🍝🇮🇹“

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

“Very impressed, great sandwich, made fresh in front of you! Friendly staff, clean place and delicious baked good. I would recommended.“

“We always get great service when we go. We're gone for just coffee, lunch both eating in and take out. We love chatting with the owners and getting to know them.

They use Kicking Horse coffee which is what we use at home. Love supporting local businesses and ingredients.“

“This place was all good.
The service, the food, the vibe, the view... Great drinks, friendly staff and terrific food.
Great place to regroup after trekking around Granville and getting hungry at all the food at the Market.
Just go, you'll enjoy it.“

“Really enjoyed our visit before the Teddy Swims concert. Great local beer selection, burger was delicious! The place was rocking!!! Asked the bartender if it was always like this on a Saturday and he said he’d never seen it so busy. Bartenders were slammed.“

“Excellent customer service through and through from the worker from Hong Kong. Thanks for making my first visit a pleasant one with various introductions of your offerings. For anyone curious, I recommend adding the tofu topping for a yummy protein extra 😋“

“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!“

“Aug 31/25: It's been quite a while since I've been back, but as soon as I came through the doors, one of the owners remembered me! She was as sweet as I last remembered, and she let me know the other wonderful owner, the chef, accommodated my food request, which I really appreciate.

The food is also still as I remembered —delicious, fresh, and high in quality. I will be back sooner for sure! (We had dynamite combo and gomae.)

Happy Anniversary Yuki-Cafe~💗“

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

“True authentic German cuisine and atmosphere. The owner is very invested in everyone having a good time and being looked after. The food is fresh, hot, and amazing“

“One of my favourite local spots. The food is fantastic! The menu is exciting curated by a Japanese chef and owner. I’ve been a few times before, this place never disappoints. You can taste the quality of ingredients best in simple dishes and the hand rolls are to die for.“

“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!“

“Pictured: Sesame Chili Tan Tan Noodles (vegan) Ramen Egg Sandwich, Matcha Soy Latte and Ginger Yuzu juice.

Food is absolutely delightful, reminiscent of Japanese craft and quality, the matcha is from Uji, and the Tan Tan broth is from the mind of some genius chef. Support these folks, they care about what they feed you and you can tell.“

“decided to pick this resto for my bday celebration because it had such high ratings, which are well-deserved by the way! we got the roti (super crispy by the way), green curry (i wish the spiciness could be turned down one slight notch) with chicken, the pad thai and a thai iced tea. everything was cooked to perfection and tasted very good (just like the thai food in uk which i prefer) and was exactly what i was looking for! thank you for the good food and letting us chat until closing without interference!“

“A great local spot, slightly off the beaten path.

Coffee and teas are great. The food I have tried is great, too.

They have some great service staff, quick, polite, and warm.

I love the little touches around the small shop. Photos of dog visitors is a great reason to keep coming back. They have a human accessible jar of treats inside the door for you to grab for your pooch.

Lots of cute merch too!

Well worth the visit.“

“Nice ambience, tasty cocktails and good service. The appetizer “potato pillows” were delicious and not greasy. The vegetarian ravioli dish was well presented and it tasty yummy per my friend. The duck was not tender enough though. I ordered my latte extra hot but it was cold. However, the server quickly gave me a really hot one upon informing her. Overall, it was a nice evening spent at the restaurant. Thanks!“

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

“I love this restaurant and have been coming here for years for breakfast, lunch or dinners. Food and service is good and most important is atmosphere is lively with music in background and euro decor. I was born in Argentina and reminds me of the many typical cozy European cafes there. 😀🌸“

“Oh my gosh, wow. So good.“

“When my wife and I discovered Saffari Pizza on marine drive North Vancouver,we enjoyed the tast of the fresh ingredients,and the dow made to perfection,since than we stopped going to any pizza place,whe I ask my wife what we going to have today for dinner she answer right away Saffari pizza,it's become one of our favorite treat, adding to tha excellent taste,the staff and the owner manager treat everyone like a family with smile and respect,we recommend everyone to try Saffari Pizza,because when you tried it once you want always come back,bring your family to a nice treat at Saffari Pizza,everyone will be very happy“

“I absolutely loved my experience at Presatto! This spot feels like a hidden gem...chic, cozy, and thoughtfully curated from the space to the menu.

I tried two of their focaccia sandwiches and was blown away. The Versailles with pesto chicken, fior di latte, arugula, and sundried tomatoes was rich and flavorful without being heavy. The Marseille was my favorite: roasted turkey, creamy brie, fig jam, and crispy onions... every bite was perfectly balanced between sweet and savory. You can tell the ingredients are high quality and everything is made with care.

I also had a glass of their fresh-pressed orange juice (yes, they have one of those amazing Euro-style OJ machines) which was so refreshing and a nice touch between bites.

They offer pastries and coffee as well, and the overall vibe is warm and welcoming. There's even a beautiful mural on the wall that adds to the charm of the space.

The sandwiches are definitely filling. Service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing.

Highly recommend if you're looking for something casual but elevated. I'll definitely be back!“

“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.“

“seriously, The BEST coffee shop in East Vancouver, hands down! Javier and Rebecca are Welcoming, friendly, ready for a laugh and all around an absolute Joy to interact with. The coffee and fresh baking is some of the best I have ever tasted and it's always served with a warm smile ✨️☕️ 10 Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“Such a cute and lovely place for brunch! We had Shakshuka and Salmon Benedict, as well as Turkish coffee and kombucha tea; everything was so delicious and elegantly presented, the staff are super friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend!!!“

“We actually ate at Rogue because there was a fire alarm issue. But Steamworks were the ones to reach out and move our reservation due to the issue. Without asking, they moved our reservation to Rogue (Thank you so much - it's their sister restaurant) and ensured we still had an enjoyable time for our Team lunch. Thank you so much for the wonderful customer experience!“

“Great cocktails and excellent service“

“We had our wedding reception here, let me start off by saying the manager/owner was so sweet, she and her husband were so quick to confirm that we could hold our wedding here. She offered to create a sign for outside the restaurant, always quickly responded to any questions or concerns. They also ordered just for our event extra tables and chairs. The employees/waiters/waitresses here are so sweet and attentive, and for their first experience doing a wedding, I was impressed with how well they adapted to the chaos of at capacity customers and crowds. The magic of the day can not happen without the people behind the scenes hustling to make it special. Waffleland cafe is so beautiful and a sweet gem in the heart of Gastown, we are so lucky to be the first wedding and I just know there will be more. Cute, whimsical, romantic decor made it so easy to add little bits to customize it to our celestial/forest. We were given a little card/gift from the owner and a sweet card that we read as we left the event. 10/10 would recommend. Thank you again Waffleland team!“

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