50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Louisville

“Amazing food and atmosphere!“

“Staff was the rudest I have ever encountered at the Middletown location. I also witnessed extreme rudeness to a door dash driver who had clearly been waiting a while and when they asked about the order having been marked 10 minutes ago as ready they were told "We don't care about YOUR numbers, we have to appear to be on time." He looked like management. I turned and left, I will not do business with someone being rude to staff or anyone providing a service to them any more than rudeness to customers.“

“Leland did such a wonderful job today! Definitely will come back!“

“i follow a blogger on youtube that travels the world. he is visiting Ethiopia and through watching it learned that Ethiopia is the birthplace of coffee. So i googled Ethiopian coffee shops in Louisville and found Abol cafe. visited today and had some pour over coffee, it was the best coffe i've ever had, and i have tried coffee everywhere!!!! believe me when I say this place has the best Coffee around. This place more than exceeded my expectations of Ethiooian Coffee!!!! I will be visiting this place alot more.“

“So glad I found this spot! Great flavors, great deal! Bring the whole family! Lots of options not just froyo“

“Friday night date night and it doesn’t disappoint. Had the barrel aged double bock and the imperial stout, and of course the excellent pizza and salad. Great place to start the weekend.“

“Excellent customer service! Burger was everything you would want it to be. Love the simple and attractive classic style logo. I met the owner himself ( Jay) had a conversation about my dog. Good stuff would definitely recommend 🤘🏽“

“We went for brunch! It was heavenly. The espresso martini didn’t depresso. Excellent! My Hubby had a dish with their red sauce & I cannot wait to return for dinner for THAT sauce.“

“Had a great time on what ended up being a private tour for my wife and I since no one else signed up. I'd give it 5 stars if this were Yelp. Really interesting story on their more recent challenges and how they have thrived/survived. They have some great whiskeys to try and some of their unique finished stuff is incredible. If I had one complaint, it would be the plastic tasting cups.“

“Fantastic pizza, probably the best I’ve ever had. Service was spectacular. We came to Louisville for a concert, but it was worth the 7 hour drive just to get this pizza. Make sure you get a reservation in advance. We’ll be back any time we are going to, or through Louisville.“

“So much easier on our emotions than visiting a shelter, so you can interact with the fur babies and relax until you reach a decision. Great coffee from Quill's Coffee and yummy snacks! Amazing volunteers who help to make the entire experience very relaxed and chill.“

“Excellent service from Angelica in a relaxed but elegant atmosphere, serving amazing food. Started with crab cake with delicious slaw. Wife had snapper in parchment with zuchini flan and asparagus. I had lamb shank, polenta and carrots (requires big appetite). Everything oiled and served to perfection with lovely wines by the glass. Ended with coffee and tropezienne which is crispy brioche with cream filling and raspberry drizzle. We highly recommend this place for fine French dining. Wish we had this place in MN. The locals here in Louisville are lucky to have such a place.“

“Alimentos y servicios de excelencia. Recomendados 100%.“

I got some yummy vegetarian coconut ramen. The kimchi was great. I loved the fried cauliflower!!!! I would recommend this to any one. Lots of fresh salads!!“

“The chef is a genius. The soups are outstanding. I have never had one that wasn't absolutely delicious. The tuna is great and the meat sandwiches are not skimpy. Ever have the opportunity to visit you will not be disappointed“

“EXCELLENT food! Great portions. The salads are fresh and the chicken is flavorful and tender. My go to dish is the Athenian broiled chicken. It’s out of this world delicious. I haven’t written a review for any restaurant in a while but had to post about this place bc it is amazing. Definitely recommend but I kind of hope this place doesn’t get too busy! It’s such a gem 💎“

“🐾 5-Stars for Club K9 Dog Bar! 🐾 If you haven’t checked out Club K9 in Jeffersontown, you’re seriously missing out! This place is a dog lover’s dream come true — a full bar for adults and a full playground for your pups. There’s a spacious outdoor play area where dogs can run, play, and make new furry friends. They’ve even got a small dog pool in the back to help them cool off on hot days. The staff is always friendly, the vibe is relaxed, and the drinks are solid — exactly what you’d want in a neighborhood dog bar. What really sets Club K9 apart? Their annual Foam Party for dogs (yes, FOAM PARTY for DOGS!) is next-level fun. It’s like a canine carnival, and it’s become a must-do event every year! Whether you’re looking to grab a drink, socialize your pup, or just chill in a pet-friendly atmosphere, Club K9 is the spot. Highly recommend it for both two-legged and four-legged patrons!“

“Nice little place, tasty beer! Can’t believe it took me this long to get there!“

“Excellent whole-bean coffee; best anywhere! Fantastic ethic, excellent customer service.“

“We had a great night with the family! So many games and attractions for all of us. The staff and service was top notch. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Excellent pizza with a good brew selection. I look forward to visiting again!“

“The "atmosphere" is fine... The tables and chairs look and feel like they belong in an 80s pizzeria, and are showing the wear and tear of being older, outdated, and not the best. And if that makes you not want to eat here, you are a damaged person... This food is amazing. As in, making a good run for best burgers in the city amazing. The prices are reasonable, the selection has something for everybody, and the staff are wonderful. But... My friend, Bro, Dude, Bruh... The food... This is 'why didn't anybody tell me it was this good' level. This is 'why did I wait so long to try it' level. If you haven't been here for the food, you are failing at life“

“We stopped by here today on our way home with our yellow lab Hawk and they were so awesome to us. The owner even came out and sat with us for a bit. Hawk was a star and loved his water bowl and his French fries. The food was awesome and atmosphere. Great. Our waiter was awesome as well. Thank you!“

“Very nice staff, I wish I had looked at the name tags to mention them but the barista with the curly ginger hair and the one with black hair and piercings were amazing. We were passing but on a road trip and they made everything better! Also those chai lattes were to die for!!!“

“Always great service by friendly people. Good food. Crummy portions. But I mean paltry! I stopped going because I ALWAYS left unsatisfied.“

“All I can say is wow. Been here twice in a week. The Shepherds Pie is insane good. The Scot egg, Mac & cheese, and beer cheese are all incredible. Great great food!!“

“First of all, we are not even sweets eaters. But, after our recent trip to Italy for the first time, we have been longing for authentic gelato. Stopped in tonight to get some to go, honestly was trying to keep my hopes reasonable. Bought mint choc chip, salted caramel and orange creamsicle. Tried two and oh my!!! The creamy texture and flavors took us right back! Love this place and will return!“

“Really enjoyed our visit at Zombie Taco’s. The bartender Justin was great and made some delicious drinks“

“Delicious pizza, friendly staff. Highly recommend!“

“Very good food🌮😋 I will definitely return“

“This spot was the perfect break after a long, hot hike. Michael welcomed us warmly—and even had a treat for our dog. He helped us pick the perfect drinks—a fruited blonde and an American lager—and the pretzel with cheese dip hit the spot. Tucked away in a charming part of town, it’s an ideal place to relax. Thanks, Michael, for the great hospitality!“

“It’s Father’s Day and we decided to go to the blind squirrel. It busy and we knew it may be a minute. Our food took a little longer than expected but nothing crazy. Some sweet man from the kitchen brought our food out and apologized for the wait and told us that the food was on him. Such a generous gesture. I would highly recommend eating here. The food was good and the service was excellent!“

“Beer is amazing and the atmosphere is even better“

“Great food! Friendly Staff! Will be back for sure and will spread the word about how great everything is.“

“Live less than 5 minutes away. Great addition for a relatively dry area.“

“Great staff and ambiance — dog friendly!“

“Brass Social not only has amazing food but also is very accommodating! They made space for our party of 25 tonight with ease. The service was exceptional, food came out for everyone at the same time, and they made space for us to all sit together! Highly recommend for any occasion!! Brandon is a hands-on owner and truly cares about his service to the community!!“

“This was my first time eating here. It's a really cool place, like a sports bar theme. The fish and chips was incredible. Can't remember the name of the special brew I had but it was outstanding. Staff was very friendly and price was very reasonable. I'll definitely be going back.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Cheese & Vibes? Say Less. I walked into Cultured thinking I’d have a cute little cheese moment—and walked out a full-blown dairy enthusiast. 🧀✨ If you love great wine, perfectly curated cheese boards, and an atmosphere that makes you feel effortlessly cool, welcome to your new obsession. The selection?? Next level. Every cheese, every pairing, every sip of wine feels intentional, elevated, and just straight-up delicious. Like, I took one bite and immediately started questioning why I ever settled for basic grocery store cheese. (I’ve changed. I’m different now.) And the vibe?? Absolutely flawless. It’s giving "I’m sophisticated but also fun"—the kind of place where you could have a romantic date, a gossip-filled wine night, or just sit alone and pretend you’re the mysterious lead in an indie film. 🎭🍷 Final thoughts? Cultured isn’t just a wine & cheese shop—it’s a lifestyle. If you haven’t been yet, grab your people (or just yourself, no shame) and go treat your taste buds to something truly elite. 🧀🍷🔥“
