44 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Madisonville

“My husband and I found this lovely spot while camping at nearby Fairview Riverside State Park. When we both retired recently we decided to celebrate our retirements with a return trip to the area, which necessitates a return trip to Abita Roasting Co. We LOVE this little hidden gem…from friendly service, relaxed atmosphere, beautiful setting, and EXCELLENT food, we cannot recommend it highly enough!“

“Just passing through Madisonville, staying at the Fairview Riverside State Park, and we decided to just eat out. So many awesome restaurants around here, but we had a hankering for Thai the moment we saw this restaurant just down the road from the park.What an excellent choice! The food was very tasty! We had the curry fish and the Pad Thai. I'd highly recommend both of them. My only criticism would be that there weren't many shrimp in the Pad Thai (5) and they were pretty small. Aside from that, we'd absolutely recommend this place and would eat there again if we are in the area.I did find it difficult to find a good, updated version of the menu online before ordering, so I'm going to upload one here. Cheers!“

“The crawfish balls were so freaking good. I even had a crawfish leg in my ball and I’m not even mad at it. That appetizer was so delicious and well made with good fresh Louisiana crawfish. 15/10 definitely recommend and will be back to try more meals“

“Went Halloween decor shopping today at Home Goods and had to stop in next door for a Crème Brûlée tea from UR teas. We walked up to the door and it was locked. The owner came and opened the door and said he was still there brewing so we could come in even though he just closed. He was super friendly and talked tea with us while making our drinks. If you’re ever out by this little gem you gotta stop in and give their Crème Brûlée tea a try. It’s my fav!“

“The atmosphere is welcoming and versatile—perfect for studying, working, or hosting small events. On top of that, it’s both pet-friendly and human-friendly, which makes it even more special. My pup and I always feel at home here. ❤️🐾 Highly recommend for anyone looking for great coffee, good vibes, and a space where everyone (two- or four-legged) belongs!“

“I have lived here for many years and this was surprisingly my first visit. Let me tell you all my favorite things: I love the upstairs bar area overlooking the harbor, and yesterday's sunset was beautiful.“

“Oh my, what a fun place to have some delicious food, a variety of drinks, a great Lakeshore view and you can bring your pup as a bonus! I’m talking about Barley Oak on Lakeshore Drive in Mandeville Louisiana. As my pictures and video below will show, you are front and center of the lakefront, and have a variety of choices in drink and dining selections and also where you’d like to sit! I had the redfish tacos, my friends had the shrimp tacos, and we all shared the sausage and cheese appetizer, which was absolutely amazing. You have got to get the gator sausage for sure. It being pet friendly, you can have your pup leashed inside or outside and the people water drinking station. there are water bowls for the pups as well. Where have you ever seen that! There’s also lively conversation, gathering of friends and family and don’t forget about a stroll across the street along the Lakeshore, a beautiful time all around. There is free parking conveniently streetside or Lakeside as well. The Barley Oak will not disappoint on any level.

Parking: Free parking street side and along the lake ….,,safe, clean and convenient!“

“This is one of my favorite breakfast and lunch locations on the Northshore. Excellent food and friendly service that can’t be beat.“

“I cant say enough about the service and quality of the staff and beers on tap. I met Ian the operations manager. He was very knowledgeable and took time to explain their process from hops to wort, to yeast selections to the finished product. The beers were simply amazing. I highly recommend the Invincible and 504.

And of course the food is amazing definitely close to food in Thailand, we know because we go every year. Also Very clean atmosphere. Definitely a must to go and give it a try“

“The shrimp tacos were so good!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 Stars – The Best Pizza & Experience! I’m not usually a pizza person and typically get sick when I eat it — but McClain’s Pizzeria completely changed that for me! Their pizza is incredibly fresh, from the high-quality toppings to the perfectly made crust. You can truly taste the care and passion in every bite, and best of all, I didn’t get sick at all! McClain and Maggie are absolutely amazing, and their staff is so friendly and welcoming. The whole team makes you feel like family the moment you walk through the door. If you’re looking for the best local pizza, this is the spot. Fresh ingredients, outstanding service, and a warm, inviting atmosphere — McClain’s Pizzeria deserves to be on the map! 🍕“

“i walked in and it was freakin busy!!!! so many people waiting for their online orders a lady even came up and pointed to her sandwich and asked the worker to hurry it up lol. But i waited a bit and someone took my order and i sat and waited. they guys there were busting their asses im not gonna lie. and when i was getting my sandwich dressed and wrapped they were all super nice to me and helped me out. one of the dudes even complimented my freakin akatsuki hoodie!! fr!! they also gave me some pairing cards cause i was waitning but it was only like 10 mins, super cool dudes“

“We tried this spot while in Covington and it was a pleasant surprise. The table chips and salsa were really good. The chips were thin and homemade which came to the table hot and the salsa was delicious. I got a shrimp taco salad and yuca fries but were fresh and tasty. I'll definitely come back. The hubs got birria tacos which he also liked.“

“I’m impressed with the salads. Haven’t tried their smoothies, etc but definitely plan on it.“

“Was craving a snow ball on my way home from work and it just hit 7 o clock and all of the snow ball stands were closed that I could find except one. It was a few minutes out my way but i was craving a snowball after the extremely hot day. So since they were open until 8 i gave them a shot. An boy was i glad i did. I’ve had snowballs from what seams like hundreds of different snowball stands. Ive had some of the best snowballs you can find. Being i was raised and lived in New Orleans until i was 24 so ive tried every snowball stand around. So ive seen some reviews saying LouLa’s were good but thats a disservice. When i got my large Chocolate with condensed milk it looked very good but i took that first bite and WOW is what i literally said to myself. Easily one of the best snowballs Ive ever had. The chocolate was perfect and they weren’t greedy with the syrup like some places. The condense milk was nice and thick. The snowball was just perfect. It was just what i was looking for. I just wish it was closer to where i live so i could go all the time. The location itself was great also. They have more then snowballs and if you want it to go or you want to sit outside and enjoy your snowball they have plenty of chairs and tables for you to sit and enjoy your snowball or whatever you order. They have plenty parking space as well. Bottom line. SnowBall A+ Location A+ Service A+ Quality A+ Time Open/Business Hours A+ Overall A+++. If you like snowballs and are in the area or you just want a 5 star snowball then LouLa’s is the place for you! Go see them and get yourself a chocolate snowball w/ condensed milk! You won’t regret it!“

“Tap Room never disappoints! They always have awesome live music, great food & drinks and the people are second to none. Highly recommend!“

“This little place was so cute, and SO GOOD. My husband and I both got some mixtures. He got a banana and abita river mix, topped with condensed milk, and I got the Snickers Stuffed with chocolate ice cream, and topped with condensed milk. Highly recommend. If you like Fudge pops, definitely get that snickers mix. It was amazing! Here's the menu, go check them out!!!“

“Service and food were great! Our waitress ( I believe her name was Jaden) was friendly and dressed MODESTLY! I thanked her for how she was dressed. I can’t believe the shortest shorts and skirts at this restaurant worn by workers. RIDICULOUS! Now I would go back. I had the catfish Perdu that’s fried catfish with etouffee on top. Delicious!“

“Chicken salad (add Swiss) on croissant is always made fresh and delicious!“

“Love the place and my favorite is The Spoke Burger.“

“Friendly service, good food, reasonable prices.“

“Just went here for the first time with my daughter. I had the AMAZING Nutella French Toast for breakfast with Lavender Iced Coffee. Daughter had the breakfast combo with the Beast Mode energized tea. I highly recommend them. Cole was awesome, friendly and attentive.“

“Love the food and just all around great place and people“

“This is a quaint restaurant on the lakefront in Mandeville. I had the Killer Quesadilla with shrimp. It was great. The sweet potato fries were very good. These were waffle fries which added to the crispness of fries. The queso was a little think but was good. Service was good also.“

“I'm traveling from Virginia back to Houston and we decided to stop for Beignets. We found ourself at Cafe Du Monde in Covington,LA. I have never been here and everyone was super friendly. Kevin assisted me with all my questions and even let me sample the famous cold coffees Au Lait and the mocha. I would recommend the mocha and stopping for the freshly made Beignets.“

“Very good food and service. Today the waitress chased us outside as we were pulling out of the parking lot to give us our to go queso we forgot. Now that’s good service! And the food is better than any mexican I’ve had in this area.“

“Great Burger 🍔 Everything was fresh Good game day place“

“The food here is ALWAYS fresh and delicious! Burgers are juicy, tots are perfectly crispy, and the drinks are spot-on every time. You can tell everything is made with care because it’s always hot and tastes amazing. This Sonic is my go-to when I’m craving something fast but still flavorful—absolutely love it“
