37 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Stamford

“Best food truck in Connecticut! Delicious food and amazing workers. 10/10“

“I will always recommend the tater tots as they are perfectly seasoned and will never be soggy the way they package them. But my new obsession is the brownie sundae I want the recipe to the best brownie ever!“

“We were on a road trip, and looking for a place to stop with our dog. It was raining, so we were looking for somewhere indoors. We were also hoping to find somewhere with food (which can be tricky with a dog and indoors), open a bit early, and if possible, hoped to watch some EPL soccer games. It seemed like a long list of things we were hoping to find, and that we probably wouldn’t be able to find somewhere to meet it all… Then we found this place! Great atmosphere, dog friendly indoor and outdoor, food truck, opened early, AND had tvs with soccer on… couldn’t believe how lucky we were to find this! The drinks, food, and service were great. And to top it off, they had Athletic brewing on tap!“

“We had the most wonderful evening at Bar Vera. Nancy and Kiria were so kind, attentive and welcoming. Our favorites were the fried halloumi, the kofte meatballs, and the best baklava I’ve ever had. One of the coziest date night spots in Stamford. Cannot wait to come back here ASAP!“

“Dude was very nice. Welcoming of the kids. Enthusiastic about his tasty beer. Worth a stop.👍🏻“

“TODAY WE WENT TO CWISPY CHKN IN STAMFORD CT #foodlover #foodreview #review #ct #stamford #organic #chicken we ordered the sliders & chicken N waffles there were a few parking spaces in the front & the location is on a corner. My good friend Heaven recommended this restaurant #foodie #crunchy #foryou & my favorite item was the sliders #yummy #viral #shorts“

“Ooooooooooh yeeaahh!! Been waiting for a place like this to come local! It's finally here and it's excellent! I order from this joint at least once a week. Love some lamb over rice. Keep it coming because we love it!“

“Food delicious.
However, there’s no menu which is a little confusing. You just walk in and there’s a counter and you just asked what they have and they make you a plate. The oxtail was straight deliciousness. Tender, flavorful. The plate served was a large portion.“

“Great pizza, wonderfully creative sandwiches (and killer meatballs!). Legendary jazz and blues legends on the walls and the best house music. Love it!!“

“Great location in a lively, redeveloped section of Stamford. We had an event with a fixed price menu and each course was amazingly good. Come hungry, because they give you a lot of food. Apps, salad, pasta and main courses were all wonderful. Great service and a great view of the harbor. Not sure if it is open to the public, but if it is, check it out.“

“Amazing, filling tacos! ¡Muy sabroso!“

“We love 1234 Pizza and order from them on a weekly basis. Our favorites are the beef pepperoni pizza, the garlic knots, and the zeppolis! We always get delivery through them. The food always arrives quickly, and it’s fresh and hot. I also feel like they are more reasonably priced compared to some of the competition. Highly recommend!“

“No better place on a beautiful summer day than on the water at The Beer Garden. And we love playing here, great spot for music.“

“It was our first time there. A great place to have a cup of coffee, and some good eats. Also the lunch menu looked very good, I’ll try it next time I’m there. We’re going back, highly recommend it“

“visited for the first time yesterday, and will definitely be back. Staff were super friendly, food was amazing as was the service.“

“Tutto molto buono e posto gradevole“

“Good food and spiked shakes“

“My breakfast wrap with eggs, Vermont cheddar & bacon was great“

“When in Stamford… go to Half Full Brewery!!!“

“Amazing food, amazing coffee, and even better people. The croque monsieur is a must, the cappuccino was on point, and the chocolate chip pancakes were unreal.

Huge shoutout to Alexandros Petrou — my card wasn’t working and he went out of his way to help me by paying and trusting me to transfer the money. That level of kindness and humanity is rare and truly appreciated.

This is the kind of place that keeps you coming back — not just for the food, but for the people.“

“Super nice place for ice cream“

“ricos tacos me gustaron mucho y más con los chiles toredos que hacen mis suegros jajajaja“

“This place was amazing! They were so cautious with my allergy. The worker who took my order saw it through with clean gloves, a fresh knife, parchment down on the work station and a new container of cream cheese. Will definitely be coming back!!“

“I recently hosted my Headshots & Handshakes event, powered by OQC, at this restaurant—and it was the perfect setting for a vibrant and engaging community networking experience. The space was open, inviting, and just the right size to foster meaningful connections without feeling crowded.

The atmosphere was beautifully enhanced by J Rod Designs, a trusted local favorite, whose decor added an elegant and professional touch. The bar featured three signature cocktails that were an absolute hit, and the bartenders brought great energy and service throughout the event.

A standout moment for me was when the owner gifted my daughter and niece small stuffed animals to keep them entertained during the event—such a thoughtful gesture that spoke volumes about the care and attention this establishment shows its guests.

Our attendees had a fantastic time, and I wouldn’t hesitate to return—either with the organization or for a personal visit. Highly recommend!“

“It's one of my favorite Stamford pizza spot growing up. We went there today with my friend who was in town, The food was still good. New owners and I will try more and have more ideas if it's still the original that I grew up with.“

“A&S never disappoints with catering an event. Edwin is always responsive and helped to plan the full event from selecting a menu to rentals to arranging for staff and carefully planning every step. I would use the team again and had a wonderful time. The clean up was fabulous too.“

“Taco-Mex served food at a party we went to and it was very fresh and delicious. Service was friendly and accommodating. Lots of choices and so yummy. Highly recommended.“

“Chopped cheese smacks like you’re in the city, deli options are stacked and always fresh, breakfast goes crazy with everything you’d want, and the smoothies are clean. Stamford needed this spot for so long and Ahmed and his team delivered—legit feels like a top NY deli. The low reviews are just entitled noobs; this place would easily be a 4.8 in Manhattan.“

“We arrived at 9:30pm, the restaurant was set to close at 10. The hostess welcomed us in and seated us with no fuss. Ines took care of all our refills and drink orders- she was so sweet with my kids. We ordered the Salmon, the Greek salad, and my son ordered the kids chicken fingers and Mac and cheese. Everything was delicious! Waaay exceeded my expectations.

Check this place out!“

“After a long wait the food comes then shortly after you get your drinks The food was good though“

“Phone number does not work.“

“Edit: the last few months this place has changed, and not for the better. The pizza/pasta is not as good. Also the hours changed drastically. I used to come in a few times a week. Now even though I live across the street, they're not even on my radar anymore. I hope they can resolve whatever derailed them.“

“I loved the Pumpkin 🎃 cream cold brew! absolutely delicious 😋“

“Party room upstairs DJ and casino nights“

“Awesome staff and good food.“

“Patisserie Salzburg is the kind of place you drift toward when the sun is out and the harbor air feels just right. Small tables outside, light bouncing off the glass, people slowing down for a moment. It is my mom’s favorite spot, and once you sit there with a coffee and something sweet, you understand why.

Step inside and it feels like you’ve walked into a full European pastry counter. The display stretches with croissants, fruit tarts, layered cakes, macarons, dense chocolate slices, and rows of delicate desserts that look almost too precise to touch. It is the kind of spread that makes you pause and scan twice. You come in thinking café, but it leans closer to a full bakery in both range and quality.

Then you notice it goes further. Behind the sweets is a full lunch lineup that could stand on its own anywhere in Stamford. Pizza slices with bubbling cheese, golden quesadillas, trays of chicken wings, baked pastas, fresh salads, dumplings, and soups. There is even a proper deli section with wraps and prepared foods that feel homemade rather than mass-produced. It is not trying to be one thing. It just does everything well and lets you choose your mood.

While there are a few locations, it still feels very much like a personally run operation rather than a polished chain. There is consistency, but also personality, and that comes through in the food and in the atmosphere.

The space itself is compact, but that is part of its appeal. It carries that European side street café energy, a little tight, a little busy, but warm and lived in. Nothing feels staged. It feels real.

The staff are friendly and efficient, but there is also a presence you notice quickly, the no nonsense “mama” running the place. She may not return your smile, even if you offer one first. But it does not come off as cold. It reads more like someone who has seen everything, knows exactly what she is doing, and stands firmly behind what she serves. There is something honest about that. In a town where many places try too hard to charm, this kind of quiet confidence stands out.

Patisserie Salzburg is more than a café, more than a bakery, and more than a lunch spot. It brings all of it together with character. On a warm day in Harbor Point, it is exactly where you want to be.“
