50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Indianapolis

“Loved my experience! Christina and Taylor were amazing and our smoothies were so good! We got the sex the peach and the peanut butter and jealous and they were so refreshing. Cute little coffee shop with local art and games. Definitely stop in!“

“Best place to sit in town and enjoy coffee and pastries. Beautiful ambience and friendly staff. Love going here!!“

“We recommend Salt on Mass for its incredible consistency. The experience is always welcoming and forever delicious. My husband David treated us to a delightful dining experience for Valentine's Day Eve. (I love dining "off holiday" for a more peaceful pace.) We've dined at Salt on Mass many times and continue to be thrilled with our experience. We reserved through Open Table and were seated immediately with our on-time arrival. I love a table with a view of the room's comings and goings, so #41 was ideal, again. We were welcomed by our server Ryan, who explained he was also our bartender. (Love it - special insights on cocktails and wines.) He served us well, attentive but not too much so, and we loved his creative chocolate martini as our "appetizer." :-) We chose our dinner favorites - Chilean Sea Bass with delectable risotto for David and Salmon with expertly grilled asparagus for me. The portions remain appropriately generous, so we split the Key-Lime Chiffon Cake for dessert. Congratulations Johnny and crew for delivering another memory-making visit. Each one leaves us craving the next! Here's to you all! Sincerely satisfied, Garnet and David 2-13-25“

“Had an amazing waiter who was very attentive and answered all our questions. Food was amazing, possible the best pasta I've had in years. Prices was very very good for the quality and quantity of food. Would absolutely reccomend“

“Devil cookies! They are sinfully good! My daughter came home with the biscoff pie, and I ate most of it and then shot back up there the next day and about 4 of them! I love the themed cookies, but the banana bread coookie was not it! It was still like bread. Crumbl needs more centralized locations.“

“Date night at Bocca never disappoints. My wife and I live near downtown, and it’s become one of our favorite spots. We grabbed seats at the bar last night, where Maritza proved she can shake a cocktail like nobody’s business. The carbonara is my go-to—hands down the best I’ve had this side of, well, Italy. The oysters are my favorite in Indy, always perfectly shucked, and the wine list makes me grin every time I spot my favorite Vermentino. You don’t have to be a neighbor to feel like one once you’re at Bocca!“

“Great Celebratory Cortado Andrew“

“Very quick service! Great communication. Me and my boyfriend had gotten an iced mocha with chocolate swirl whipped cream.“

“Patachou rocks. Not only is the food superb. Their restrooms are always clean and the service is great. They also take the time to watch out for their patrons when they misplaced their valuables I’m a customer for life. Now if I could just get another cup of their banana nut coffee. Best cup I’ve ever had“

“we drove down for Fathers day dinner, the food, atmosphere and service are just amazing, they have huge portions and the owner is super friendly. we are going to keep coming back.“

“Great vibe, atmosphere and drinks. Only issue, as a pure gamer, a few of the cabinets are unplayable due to wear and tear. Need more regular maintenance of these classics.“

“Lindsey was great! Made dinner recommendations which we loved!“

“First time trying tonight and the wings were phenomenal and the mango lassi is a must try! Will definitely be returning! 10/10!!!“

“Initially they seated us at a table tucked away in a corner. Terrible location. My view was Aldi’s dumpster. Then we found that the staff use the door for their smoke breaks. Constant traffic. We were a bit chilly so we asked to move to a different table. They accommodated us but then we had to change servers. We felt bad for our first server.“

“Door dashed these and as someone who has lived in a Puerto Rican/Dominican home, this is the closest to Nana's pastellios in Indy I car get. These were so fresh, still hot, sweet, savory, beautifully branded (how DID you DO that?!?), and made me do a Homer Simpson. guttural drool as I ate the guava queso version last. The side sauce was a pleasant surprise and | HIGHLY recommend trying this place if you love Latin food. Well worth the sample box price. We had Breakfast Sausage (not spicy), Ham & Cheese, in addition to the Guava & Cheese. * chef kiss *“

“this place is a true gem in nw nap. the food was 5 stars the hospitality was all fives as well. we met the whole family and they were all super pleasant. I asked for chilequiles (which wasn't on the menu) and the mom said no problem I got chu. serving sizes was large hash browns were crispy pancakes fluffy as heck.“

“In on a work trip from Alabama, and this was by far the best meal we had. One of the best I have ever had. Violet was amazing and so attentive. We shared the Alfredo fries, and I had the fillet and cheesecake for desert. The atmosphere was amazing. She even gave us a tour of the building.“

“OMG We had the best experience since covid Our bartender Tyrone was amazing fun and fast smiling made our night Thank you Tyrone for making our night great !!!!“

“We absolutely LOVE!!! We come up every year from Evansville for our Daughters birthday We love it so much, see you tonight !“

“Love love love! Met up with some friends from out of town and even brought my two kiddos and it was such a pleasant experience. Plenty of games to keep the kids entertaining and delicious beer. Good food aswell. Our server Sav was *chefs kiss*“

“The Fest Hall was the perfect venue for our wedding of just under 100 guests! It was WAY more affordable and flexible than any other option we looked at in Indianapolis. We were able to cater in our own food, hire a DJ of our choosing, and bring in our own decorations, which saved a ton of money and gave us a lot of creative freedom to create the wedding we wanted. There were different bar packages to go with any budget, too. We were able to choose 5 beers to have on tap, plus two wines and canned ciders. While the space is connected to the brewery, you almost wouldn't know it, as we had a private entrance and no issues with sound spilling over from the brewery side. The space has great natural lighting, great sound system and dimmable lights, and beautiful tables and chairs, which made it perfect for an indoor wedding. Our ceremony and reception were in the same space, and we were able to set up in a way that didn't require the space to be flipped in between, which just made everything easy and cozy. We worked with Kiley, and she was super helpful, communicative, and just helped us feel at ease with the whole process. The bartenders who served us were also super helpful and kind. Cannot recommend enough if you are looking for an affordable and dreamy venue in Indy!“

“Great burgers, friendly staff, and a nice clean place. So happy you came to greenfield. We look forward to returning“

“We found a new great restaurant! Great service. Friendly people. Wonderful food. Fried green tomatoes were to die for!“

“This is my absolute favorite ice cream in Indy!“

“this is quickly becoming a hot spot in the area. its a local business that has a variety of dishes not easily found elsewhere nearby.“

“I pulled into the location in lynchburg va today thinking it was open already and two you the really nice girls walked out and give me free samples!!!! I'm so excited for this to open I'm definitely going to be a regular!!! ❤️“

“We got our dog a CBD treat here. It worked very well to help relax his "new neighbor anxiety" 10/10 recommend We are definitely coming back to treat ourselves to infused goodies“

“Girrrrrrrrrl. Walk, run, sprint to get this tiramisu ❤️“

“Ordered the Ale Supremo pizza and ended up having to wait about an hour until we got it. No biggie. It happens. The manager (Diane) threw in a large order of wings, refunded our money, AND gave us a $20 gift card. Now THAT'S customer service! The food was absolutely delicious, too. Needless to say, we're Ale Emporium customers for life. Thank you!“

“I’m from out of town my granddaughter took me to a vegan restaurant in June it wasn’t good. I have alpha gal so my options are limited. My daughter brought me to 10th Street Diner. It is so good. I will be coming back. She is not limited with her food choices and ate the Buffalo Chicken sandwich, she loved it.“

“Great location and the food is excellent!😊“

“My wife and I stopped in today for lunch right around 11am, so shortly after they opened. We were the only customers there upon arrival. The service was great, atmosphere nice, and the food was even better! I had the spaghetti and meatballs and my wife the Hoosier Tenderloin. Both were great. We’d both recommend going and we certainly will be going back.“

“King and Michelle stopped by Black Leaf Vegan before heading back to Maryland from Indianapolis on Labor Day Monday. One of the first things that impressed us was how quickly the business responded to our Facebook Messenger inquiry about whether they’d be open for the holiday. That responsiveness was already a big plus. When we arrived, we were immediately drawn in by the décor—it’s warm, stylish, and welcoming. The music set a perfect vibe. Michelle (vegan) and King (decidedly not vegan) both ordered from the breakfast and lunch menus, and we were equally impressed. The food was flavorful, and the smoothie King had was refreshing. ⭐ 5/5 – Highly recommend! If you’re looking for a vegan-friendly option in Indianapolis, this spot deserves a visit. Bonus points: The owner personally came over to our table after confirming we were the ones who messaged the business. That extra step in hospitality goes a long way and left a lasting impression.“

“Came here for a special event and wish it was closer to where I live. The vibes are wonderful with good lighting, large vinyl and VHS wall, and plenty of places to sit both in and outside. The drinks were fairly priced, but was sad they were out of rootbeer. Main issues: not enough restrooms & at least for this event they didn't have enough bartender for the size. Will probably look for other show or event to justify coming out this far north.“

“My girlfriends and I have known Joe for many years- from when he worked at Buck Creek Winery. He is The BEST! Now that I have finally visited the shop 2 days in a row- I know why everyone raves about Heartland. Last night there was a great crew working! The teens were very personable and friendly. They offered us a sample. Everything tasted sooo good. If you know how great Joe is- you won't be surprised that he has a phenomenal group of employees representing his shop. As for the ice cream...my youngest son LOVED the Superman. I chose Cornbread and Coffee Cookie. Sooooo good! You HAVE to try the Cornbread ice cream! It is the most unique, delicious ice cream ever! I had to get it again today. My oldest son came this time and he sampled Cornbread. He liked it so much- that is what he ordered, too! The Cookies and Cream is also to die for! I love how easy it is to sign up for the rewards program. We also loved how many options we had to choose from on the menu. If I can ever tear myself away from the Cornbread ice cream- I would like to try the Italian Ice. It was great to see you today, Joe! What a wonderful business you are building. I'm sending Nikki in STAT! lol. My boys and I highly recommend Heartland. Looking forward to visiting again soon....“

“Wonderful coffee and super friendly staff.“

“Awesome donuts and boba! Always good when I go“

“A beautiful coffee shop, perfect for visiting, sitting, reading , or just looking at all the plants. Just an all-around great hangout place! I had the Nutella iced latte, and it was delicious! The coffee and lattes are served in unique mugs, not discardable ups, which is a big bonus in my opinion.“

“This pizza is very tasty. I really like it. Happy to support an independent business who genuinely cares for the people on their team. Futuro are The Real Tank Doggs of Detroit-style pizza in Indianapolis. “You tryna sell wolf tickets to the lion of the jungle I'm the eyes of God, they call me cyanide in the struggle You the kind of guys that would be traumatized in the scuffle And I'm buying pies with the Italian guys with the muscle” —Vinnie Paz“

“This is my absolute favorite ice cream in Indy!“

“Good location, nice atmosphere and good coffee. It was packed when I stopped by for an afternoon iced latte.“

“Shay was our waitress and she did an excellent job providing us with good quality service very attentive. Pancake breakfast was good. And the omega breakfast was also cooked too perfection. But the best thing was the large cups of coffee that was very strong and stayed hot the entire meal without being refilled.“

“It was so good and fresh. The milk boba tea is fantastic“

“Honestly wasn’t expecting this to be as good as it was but wow everything was great the guap fries, tenders, even the kids meal. Got medium and medium plus it was perfect level of spice thats good but not excessive. Probably one of the coolest places aesthetically to eat and just an overall vibe. Highly recommend.“

“Great people and great pizza! Love that thin crust“

“Can't believe we've never eaten here before today! Enjoyed lunch on the patio this morning with our two dogs. The flatbreads were amazing!! Their homemade tomato sauce is outstanding. We can't wait to come back and try the other menu items!“

“Had the best tasting with Lee at Peace Water Carmel today! It's always a great experience and fantastic wine, but Lee went above and beyond to share information about the wine! Highly recommend 👌“

“The dark chocolate brownies they have alone are worth stopping by.“

“Just had an extremely tasty breakfast eating in at Open Kitchen at 10th and Drexel. Best biscuits and gravy I have ever had at a restaurant. Slightly spicy-Huge portions everything homemade. The place is very small with 2 four tops and 3 or 4 two tops. It took quite a while to get the food because they make everything fresh but it was well worth it! They do carry out as well as Grub Hub and Door Dash. They also have lunch and dinner which I can’t wait to try.“

“Tonight while waiting to play trivia a guy came in and was handing out a card saying he was deaf and needed money. My friend Chelsea Haboush who is a server there immediately kicked him out than told me that he is not deaf and has spoken to her before. He has also run this scam before. While I am very frustrated that someone would fake a disability I am thankful for Chelsea's quick reaction and kindness“
