16 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Hartford

“My family and I went here for my son’s 8th birthday and the food and service was incredible. The atmosphere gives cozy and welcoming. The customer service is worth every dollar I spent.“

“Tired of the never-ending onslaught of hazy IPAs? Looking for a real wide variety of beers that all have great flavor? This is the place. Maibock, Helles Lager, Pils, Czech Amber, plus more. They even have beers on a side pour (iykyk).
Plus the vibe is chill. The owners and bartenders are super friendly (shout out to Dylan who is the best). The building is historic. And they support the local community with events.
Parking is simple with a lot across the street. They have snacks but you can bring your own food (grab some to go from Parkville). Dog friendly. Kids are welcome but this isn't the kind of place you're going to find a family birthday party for a toddler (thank god).
This is definitely the kind of brewery for beer lovers.“

“This coffee shop is so much more than a place to grab a drink. It is like a community living room. Warm, creative, and welcoming in the most genuine way. There are art supplies to sit and create, free books to borrow, and games to play. It’s a place that invites you to slow down, connect, and stay awhile. The cold brew I had today was absolutely amazing…..smooth, rich, and clearly made with care. Even more meaningful was the experience with the owner. Her kindness, authenticity, and passion shine through in every detail of this space. You can feel how much heart has gone into building something that truly serves the community. I’m so grateful to my son and his girlfriend for encouraging us to stop in after a UConn game, what a gift that recommendation was. Places like this are rare, and they matter. If you love small businesses, creativity, connection, and spaces that bring people together, please show up and support this one. Bring a friend. Stay for a while. Make it part of your routine. Convenient to the XL Center, Yard Goats, downtown, and right off the highway. Closed Mondays, open all other days — plan your visit and don’t miss it. Support this local gem. Our community needs places like this. ☕️📚🖌️🥰“

“Very friendly and what a great couple to host we hired them for our town football team as a pregame treat and their ice cream was phenomenal!!!! Highly recommend, looking forward to booking for my personal use in the near future. Ice cream is my weakness and they definitely pass the test .10/10“

“Clean Restaurant, Friendly n Welcoming Staff and Fantastic Food!!! I have No need to go to any other Restaurant cuz they have it All here..In my opinion, it's the Best Jamaican Restaurant in Hartford.“

“great selection, friendly service, super clean, informative, everything was delicious“

“Hundreds of 5 star reviews and it really is true, this place is five stars in everything they do. Quality, price, friendliness you name it. 20 people were lined up to order when I came in and it moved quick. I also saw several regular customers have parts of their order put on the house. Goes to show how great this place is.“

“Honestly a GEM of a restaurant and a place that I will return going as long as they are open. Food was superb and a great menu , it will be tough for parking I think because it is in downtown Hartford. But hell I dont care because the food is that good, so the plan is to order food to eat inside and order to take out for next day, great job guys, coming back soon!!!!“

“Great food and cocktails with excellent service 😍🤗“

“Love this restaurant. Dishes are absolutely delicious. Robert and Bella are welcoming and wonderful going above and beyond in making sure you have a delightful dining experience. Both are also so helpful with dish recommendations and our meals came very quickly. They are so friendly and personable and provide exceptional service. We can’t wait to dine there with them, again. Bánh Meee is our new favorite restaurant in Hartford. Thank you! 😊“

“I was there last night with my family I came from Florida a few days ago and went to ct to see my brother that goes there all the time with his wife and I may say it was amazing service and all 🙏🏻😊“

“the Family was just as pleasant and my chicken was ready when I walked in the door and you talking about Good 😋😋😋“

“Cozy atmostphere with nice outdoor seating. I really enjoy the way they cook eggs , always perfect balance in their sandwhiches. The coffee was really tasty. Wish there was more places like this around Hartford support local and there will be! ✌️“

“First, I have to say they make my absolute favorite egg rolls/shrimp eggrolls ever. I'm addicted to them. I'll get atleast 3 just for myself and in addition to whatever else I'm getting. If I'm in the area, even if I'm not hungry/already eaten, I'll stop by and get atleast 3 eggrolls and a shrimp egg roll.

I love this place. I most definitely recommend it. Especially with the plaza across the street, place your order, take care of business and then have a yummy snack/lunch/dinner after. It's obviously not a gourmet fancy shmancy place, but the food is what matters and I've had the same orders thay cost twice as much and this place tastes better.

The service is always faster than expected. I don't think I've ever had to wait for more than 10min (the average being like 5-7), even when there was 2 orders before me.

I'm slowly working my way through the menu to try everything and I've yet to find anything I don't like/anything to complain about. The food is always nice and hot (or cold or whatever temp its best at). The food is always very fresh in every manner. And the food tastes just as amazing the next day. It reheats well but also tastes great no reheated too (like cold or room temperature crab rangoon). I usually do leftovers- fried rice in a wok but even when microwaved it's just as delicious.

I have atmosphere 4/5 because the inside is sparse, it's obviously meant to be a take out place. But it's got a nice quaint mom and pop, family run vibe. Even though it's clearly a take out place, technically there is a couple small tables if you're like eating on the go(?) and it's otherwise nice, clean, and for its size it's not like cramped. For what it is it's 5/5, but on the unified scale of restaurants in general it's meant to be eaten at (though it is possible to do so). Also they have the sauces, utensils and fortune cookies readily available and self serve unlike a lot of places that are stingy about those for some reason.

The staff is kind while also expeditious. For Chinese-Take-Out restaurants I'd posit the standard is speedy without the pleasantries. But the staff here are nice and kind and fast but not to the point of costing the pleasant-ness. I often stop in and place my order before I run across the street to CVS. If I'm early when I get back I'll wait outside, and often the woman there will bring my food out to me with a smile. She could wait till I come in, she could wave me in through the window or whatever, but she takes the effort to kindly bring my food to me outside.“

“Second to none!!! 😋 Everything is fresh and delicious!!!“

“My son loves this place. Usually he's a big Mac kid but I was lazy and placed a order for the double cheese burger it was delivered fresh and hot. The burger was huge he was like this burger is big. Needless to say he don't ask for Big Macs no more he asks for the big burger. I went in person and placed a order the workers were kind and food did not disappoint. This is our new burger place.“
