50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Petaluma

“Had brunch here today with my daughter and we were lucky to get seated right away as it’s a popular spot, especially on weekends (opted for outdoor seating rather than wait for a booth). I ordered a scrambled egg skillet and my daughter had a Greek omelette. Both were excellent!“

“We are so grateful to HenHouse Brewing for their generosity in donating beer for our fundraiser to help save dogs in Contra Costa County. Their support helped make our event a huge success, and the beer itself? Absolutely phenomenal.

What makes HenHouse beer so special is how it’s made: always fresh, unfiltered, and unpasteurized. Brewed in small batches with an eye toward quality and creativity, each flavor bursts with vibrant hop character and balance. HenHouse has built a reputation for brewing with intention—showcasing the artistry of hops while keeping drinkability front and center. I agree. DELISH.

Our guests loved the lineup and I borrow this writing from online descriptions:
- Hollow Moon IPA – Bursts with tropical guava and piña colada notes from Mosaic and Sabro hops, perfectly balanced.

- Frozen Envelope IPA – A hazy, juicy treat, dripping with orange, pineapple, guava, and grapefruit. It looked like a creamsicle in a can and tasted even better.

- Big Chicken Double IPA – Bold and brimming with hops (Mosaic, Simcoe, Amarillo, and more), this is HenHouse at its hop-forward best.
Best Life Blonde Ale – Smooth, crisp, and lightly hoppy, the perfect can to crack open any time. And great graphics!

Not only were the beers a hit, but HenHouse’s generosity and community spirit shone through. They did not just donate—they partnered with us in creating a fun, memorable experience, and I'm confident they got alot of fans post-event.

Simply put, HenHouse Brewing represents the best of Northern California craft beer: inventive, community-minded, and always brewed with passion and care. Plus their graphics are so fun!

We can’t thank them enough!“

The man at the counter was friendly and welcoming. The samosas were flaky and delicious. The meat on the steak salad was so tasty and the salad was large and fresh. The person working recommended the Spicy Basil dish, and it did not disappoint. The food was so good,if we lived here we would eat here all the time.“

Best in town and we don't go anywhere else to get Chinese food. Pot stickers , won ton soup, chicken soup, prawns dishes and veggies are always great.“

“Best sushi, and great service!“

As a note, the menu often has new and rotating dishes responsive to the current season or availability of bio-diverse food. Visit frequently to get the full experience!“

“$1 drip coffee and the best iced mocha on the west coast! 😎“

“Last night, at the Vault of Scottsdale, I had a marvelous experience with Adobe Road Wines and the TRG team. They had the iconic #66 TRG GT car that won the 24 Hours of Daytona victory, and they provided a marvelous collection of wines to the guests. Kevin Buckler and Callum were nice enough to give me a VIP pass to the event. The crew member for The Racers Group race team - Al - was very friendly and informative about the race team. He allowed me to sit in the car behind the wheel and get photos with it. The Vault also had a nice sports-car collection, and it was the perfect setting for the wine-tasting. Al and Cullum were nice enough to give me a tiny ARW token, and autograph some photos of the TRG GT America race-car I saw race in the streets of Nashville a few years ago. The food was delicious - the sweets with fruit, the cheese and crackers, and the best mashed potatoes I've had by far. The food was high-quality and I got to make some great connections. I wish I could attend every event that they host, but I will definitely return the next time they come to Arizona, hopefully for multiple events. Everyone - if they come to your location - this is a 100% great experience for both wine tasters and motorsports fans. Thanks to Kevin, Cullum, and Al for the terrific hospitality and VIP entrance. I admire and respect what Kevin Buckler is building up with Adobe and The Racers Group. If you're ever out in San Francisco area - go to Petaluma and visit their headquarters in-person. The scale is not high enough for me to justify the experience. So, I have to give it 5 out of 5. If not for the 5/5 scale, it'd be a 100/100. :)“

“an excellent place to have a good wine or a cold beer. Nice place.“

“As a professional barista, I have a higher standard for coffee than most and will refuse to drink from most commercial roasters. Acre coffee is one of the best experiences I've had in a coffee shop yet. Legitimately good coffee, friendly faces, great atmosphere and an eagerness to bring you back in. 9/10. When coffee is this good, a long line can bring a wait time but the coffee, food and pastries are still well worth it“

“I came threw town and stopped at Bianchini's. I got a Roasted turkey breast sandwich. It had this pesto mayo inside that was super good. The meat tasted fresh and the roll was fresh baked. The man that took my order was really nice and I thought overall that they had good customer service. Would go back if back in the area.“

“We came here for lunch to try some vegan pies, and they definitely exceeded our expectations! I ordered the fungi pizza and the potato pie, and both were amazing. We almost finished them completely! The crust was wonderfully baked and definitely worth eating. They also made for great leftovers during the rest of our road trip. I'm sure their non-vegan pizzas are excellent too!“

“Yummy food great portions authentic taste“

“Food a way overrated. I'm from Texas, and very aware of real BBQ is. Kiosk prompts you to tip for someone touching in your order, Really? Also way overpriced for so called BBQ!!“

“OMDOG!! Thank you!! Your burger is as good as I remember it from Java Jacks. I highly recommend your burger to anyone. Thank you again! You rock!“

“Me and my girlfriend tried this restaurant this past Sunday on account that we became aware of them having a vegan menu to supplement there regular menu, obviously being Vegans ourselves this was pretty exciting, not many places have an entirely separate menu for us to access, well this was only the first of many good qualities about this establishment, the service was impeccable and all the staff were incredibly friendly and engaging and helpful, as well as genuine, and the food, let me tell you, you won’t find better flavors at almost any restaurant, I’m not even kidding, and the list goes on and on, the pricing was fair, the portions were plenty, the salsa and sauces were amazing, the variety was great, and what’s more is that they did not attempt to substitute any of the alternative meat options, they just made sure there dishes were flavorful and decently proportioned and came out of the kitchen in a timely fashion, literally we had not one complaint and this review is so much more than deserved, don’t even know if I’ve had a better all around experience at a restaurant ever, please all vegans if you have not tried this place yet, please do, and those of you that are not, they will not disappoint either! Thankyou Tortilla Real!“

“Took the tour with Tyler and it was fantastic! Gave us an extra sample of the Pilsner to try and the Loft bar alone is worth the tour price. Stopped by the taproom afterwards and ordered the nachos, burger and fries and of course more taproom exclusive Lagunitas brews. 10/10 would recommend“

“Their custom salads are my favorite. Choose a type of green (romaine, spring mix, etc.), and add ingredients, toppings and dressing. Nothing complex, but always good quality served with a smile. Their sandwiches are quite good, as well. One of the specials (as in, not available every day), is a Buffalo Chicken sandwich and is probably my favorite. The prices are reasonable for the quality and quantity of the food.

Parking: It is a large lot, shared by multiple tenants in the shopping center. I have never seen it more than 50% full.“
