50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Alexandria

“We visited this place on a busy Friday night. The owners of both the brewery and the restaurant (yes they are separate businesses) were both there and working. The place was packed with people! There were families enjoying a meal, friends catching up over a drink, or regulars enjoying a laugh at the bar with the friendly staff.

All beers are made in house by the owner and head brewer. They generally have a beer style for everyone. Everything from light beer (regular domestic beer) to ipa's (Till the Battle Is Won) to big boozy stouts (Saturn Ascends). Beers are made true to style, mostly with a German background. If you like a classic pilsner or kolsch, you will not be dissapointed, some of the best in the city! Matter of fact, get a flight so that you can try multiple beers. If beer isn't your thing, try one of their house made bourbon slushies, they're really good. And how can I forget their bourbon selection?

The food at Bender's Pub Grub is all made to order and from scratch, so be prepared to wait a little bit as they make your food. And trust me you will not be disappointed! The food is some of the best in the area!

If you are looking for an adult only corner bar with $2 PBR's and $1 jello shots, this place isn't for you. It's family friendly, welcoming, and some of the best beer and food in the city! Give it a try, we did, and we'll definitely be back!“

“My favorite Asian buffet. Good food, friendly people, and good pricing. The sushi is my favorite in the area. The wait staff are very friendly and mostly extremely helpful. I go here with my 90-year-old mother and the servers often take care to seat us near the buffet and our last girl even followed my mother and carried her plate back to our table for us. Lovely place. Also, they offer menu service which is really good and a hibachi.“

“Everything is AMAZING!!!!“

“How good are these you ask? While letting my empanadas cool I turned my back for five seconds and turned around to an empty plate. “Odd…” I thought, as I was the only one home at the time. And then I heard it, the sound of my dog scarfing down steaming hot empanadas! I called my dog a lot of names this day, with words I typically try not to use… in English and Spanish! Once the dog had cleared the crime scene I looked at what was left and tried to remember the specifics of the 5 second rule and its subsection on dog slobber. Ultimately I determined the entirety of my meal a loss. But they’re good enough I seriously considered it!“

“Chat GPT had directed us here on Saturday the 4th. The food was great! My son and I each had the Salmon with Sweet Potato fries. We had both flown in from 2 different states for a couple of attractions. After the Salmon we finished off a huge slice of Carrot Cake. The best I have ever had. Annie M was very attentive, kind and had a very happy face. For everyone, actually. I just wanted to say how pleased and surprised we were with how good everything was. And I also wanted to compliment Annie M.“

“Today I traveled from Florida to Cincinnati. My sister and I wanted to get a bite to eat . We didnt want to get fast food that you could get on every corener . While leaving the airport I Googled restaurants close by . There were several to choose from however, we decided on Pig Candy BBQ this restaurant did not disappoint. The food was amazing ( we had the special which was the brisket sandwich) this sandwich was very tender and full of flavor. If you are just traveling through or a local or feel up to a drive this is definitely worth your time .The staff knows what customer service means . All around Great food and service. A MUST STOP....... THANK YOU !!“

“Loved it!!! Food was great but service was even better ! KATELIN, KATELIN, KATELIN!!!! We shall return!“

“Taj Mahal is by FAR our favorite Indian food in the entire region - we recommend it all the time. Incredibly delicious and fresh, always consistent, and the dining area has a warm atmosphere! Favorite dishes are the saag paneer and curried chicken + garlic naan. The fact that they’re open late is the cherry on top. We will be long time fans and customers here“

“Love Wunderbar! Will always look forward to coming back!“

“Super impressed with Better Blend Anderson. My friends have raved about BB Florence for years. I finally found BB in anderson. My family has ordered over 10 smoothies so far and we've enjoyed all of them. My favorites are LeanGreen and PBOreo. Impressed with the fresh produce used, the size and value. The store is so clean too!! Well done!! You made me a regular in one week.“

“We love getting coffee and a bite to eat when in Fort Thomas. Their drinks are amazing, we love working from there, and their staff is so friendly. Highly recommend!“

“Whenever in a town for the first time, we look for an Irish pub. We’re very happy to have found Paddy’s. We had the bar/bartender to our selves for a short while. Discussed Irish whiskeys, history of the bar and more. Had a great time but had to move on. The Casey’s from Michigan.“

“Olla is one of my favorite places! Food is excellent! Quick service. In the spring, summer, and fall, I love sitting outside when it's not raining. I always take my out of town guests here.

My go to is Birria Guti Nachos!“

“Four buddy's and I stopped by for our first visit last night. Gus was on point with his attentive service and knowledgeable beer descriptions. Tried the Crazy Norse(I'm not an IPAer, but it was fantastic) and the "Route 9"(a smooth Lager) Outstanding!! 👍👍 The Cod sandwich was excellent!! Ashley's prompt support with the food and drink delivery helped to make our visit a highly enjoyable experience! We'll be back soon!!“

“I recently hosted a baby shower at Blinker's Tavern and I must say it was an absolutely amazing experience from start to finish. This establishment truly exceeded my expectations in every aspect, leaving me with a lasting impression. From the moment I reached out to Blinker's to inquire about hosting the baby shower, the event coordinator Amy L. was incredibly friendly, attentive and accommodating. The restaurant, servers and host went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was perfect. They seamlessly coordinated the flow of food and beverages, ensuring that everything ran smoothly and allowing me to enjoy my time. Amazing food, service and atmosphere. Thank you!“

“Hands down the best food and staff for the area! We loved it so much we came back multiple times over the weekend.“

“Absolutely loved visiting StoneBrook Winery with my Fiancé tonight. Tom was very kind, knowledgeable and made sure we were well taken care of. I’d highly recommend visiting them! We are sweet wine drinkers and they had a great selection.“

“Great local brewery to grab a cold beer! They have friendly staff and wonderful owners“

“Been in the area for many years. I have heard that the food was great. We ate here the other day and I was not disappointed. The staff was attentive without being overwhelming, the patio had a beautiful view and the food was fantastic. This will soon become one of my regular places to stop. Im looking forward to trying brunch.“

“I met a group of friends here for dinner. The restaurant is nice & clean. It wasn’t crowded. But since the weather was nice we sat outside on the patio. Service was prompt. I ordered the steak sandwich with aioli & it came with a side salad. The bread was fresh & the steak was tender. But there was a lot of bread. The side salad was average the dressing was so less I could barely taste it. For a $19 sandwich I was expecting a little more filling & bread not being the main attraction. I would go again but I wouldn’t suggest it.“

“One of my favorite coffee shops. I have been going here at least once a week for years. Cute and cozy atmosphere, delicious drinks, incredibly nice owners and harry styles lovers, which is a plus for my daughter. They also have a little shop inside that I frequently buy from. Very cute stuff.“

“My new favorite coffee stop in Cincinnati. The staff was very friendly, the menu had a delightful selection of exciting seasonal drinks and the atmosphere was great. I ordered the iced girl scout latte and was very impressed with the drink I received. I brought my laptop with me to get some homework done and was very happy to find ample outlets and comfortable seating -- not as easy to find in a local cafe as you might think. It was quiet in the late afternoon but definitely started picking up in the evening as people transitioned from ordering coffee to the actual bar. All in all, there's a little bit of everything here. Good quiet vibes for some afternoon work, and a little more excitement rolling in during the evening. I wish I could have stayed and ordered a cocktail“

“My family had a retirement party for me last Friday. Sam, our hostess was wonderful and the staff that was helping made sure the food kept coming, and Sam kept the drinks flowing!😃. The party room was perfect. I had a wonderful time!“

“The girl that greeted us had dark hair (black I believe) I should’ve gotten her name. I was going in to pick up a testing cookie-Pumpkin cheesecake, with my 3 young kids. I’m someone who’s easily stressed and wanted this to be a quick in and out type of deal, we came 10 minutes early so I was expecting to wait but nope it was ready! We also ended up buying the cookies and cream cake. The cashier/baker was the sweetest though, even if the cookies had been terrible we’d come back to see her.

The pumpkin cheesecake was delicious, right amount of cheesecake and pumpkin flavor with the graham cracker crumbl on top. I was so excited this was at the location near us. Thank you!!!!!“

“Great lunch option in downtown Cincinnati. Lively, fast paced quick casual spot that focuses on salads, sandwiches and soups. Always packed for weekday lunch though tables turn over quickly. They have a great pick two option with soup/sandwich or soup/salad.“

“Really enjoyed the atmosphere and the food! The background story is really cool.“

“This was my first time at the gruff and it was absolutely amazing. The food was great. The service was amazing as well, and we got to sit outside and enjoy the weather! Most definitely will be going back.“

“Very good quaint place Pizza was really good“

“I just went to Parlor Doughnut on Beechmont. Yes their donuts are superior but more amazing is their customer service. It is impeccable from the owner to the manager to every person on their staff. It is the Chick Fil A of donuts...you have to go!“

“Outstanding food! Got the classic cuban and plantains. The cuban was spot on. Crunchy on the outside, moist and balanced on the inside. The plantains were cooked and seasoned to perfection. Even my 5 year old couldn't get enough.“

“Hand pies are amazing! Flaky, buttery crust with chicken pot pie filling!“

“I had an awesome experience at Olive Garden thanks to the two Kates working together! They were both incredibly friendly, had amazing attitudes, and made me feel welcome right away. They acknowledged me quickly and took my order with a smile. I think they both need a raise“

“such a nice place the owners are wonderful and very welcoming very clean inside and out watched the Bengals game there for Monday night football had a blast we will definitely be back!“

“This is a fantastic small coffee shop for the Anderson area! The baristas are always SO kind and friendly, and their coffee is delicious (I highly recommend a latte with one of their seasonal flavors). Thank you Luckman for the amazing service as always (you made my day!) and delicious coffee (today I got the gingerbread latte; it’s wonderful)! :)“

“I am in love with Curritos healthy delicious abundant food all in one bowl! I am a health food freak and im so happy to find them at Currito. I can taste the good health lol. Please open another Currito in Eastgate!! Me and my husband are your biggest fans! Thank you very much! We need more of these please!“

“This place has such depth in soups, The ramen is quite tasty and is better than the ramen shops in west Chester but the pho is amazing the depth of flavor is amazing. Soup dumplings are great. And the prices are comparable to the Cincinnati market. This place has great value. And is a welcoming spot that I share with my young family (7,4) I am very thankful for this restaurant, and in a matter of fact after thinking about this I am going to go there right now !“

“Great ice cream, amazing number of flavors and nice people. Try the Kinder cones.“
