38 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Walkersville

“Absolutely the best Mexican food right here in Da Ville! No more chipotle. Will still do Big Papi's (also great). But everything here is so good!! Have to build up my palette courage for some of the meats, but everything is seasoned and cooked absolutely perfectly. The place is clean and the service is great!!“

“The BEST a authentic Italian food in Maryland - full stop. My Italian grandmother would eat here and be proud. Their handmade pasta texture is perfection. The carrot in their bolognese is the perfect mix of identifiable without being overbearing. The bureaus is texturally exceptional, and we order two orders of Arancini because my husband and I refuse to share them. RUN, Don’t walk… but save a table for me.“

“Food was fantastic. it was just so delicious but they don't have a lot of gluten-free options. So I ended up getting a Cobb salad and their candid bacon. Also we probably had every server come up to our table and ask us if we needed anything if you wanted to place an order if we need a refill so a little hard to say who served us and if they gave us excellent service because every time somebody came to the table it was somebody different but the food was good.“

“We took a chance to come back after not going for quite awhile. Previously we kept getting the same server and she was clearly not happy with her job. After years of being away we were very happy to see a younger group of servers that were helpful and energetic. Sadly the food was meh. We always used to go for the food and tried to ignore the service. The menu was good but it wasn't as good as usual. We went to brunch at noon so that could explain the quality of the food. Everything seemed dry. Even the sauce on the eggs Benedict was much too thick. I got Risotto and it was good but there was about a quarter cup of oil poured all over it and it became distracting to the dish. We went as a group of four and didn't order cocktails. The bill was about $70 and I find that reasonable but I just wish the food had been better overall. I loved the “new to us” bar area and perhaps we will come back to get some small plates and cocktails. Most likely we won't be back for brunch.“

“Four stars for service and space. Just off the Main Street, there are plenty of tables and chairs for diners and people who want to work. (There are outlets and wifi.) The people who run it are efficient but very nice and helpful.My latte was tasty and my daughter enjoyed the bottled orange juice.The food was average. My daughter’s waffle was a little dry but she enjoyed the whipped cream. My ham quiche was large and not bad!“

“Awesome experience at McClintock during a weekend getaway in Frederick! An incredible tasting experience, delicious spirits and fabulous cocktails in the back bar! Totally recommend! Now back home, sitting on our deck enjoying a Buck Rodgers using the spiced pear cordial!!“

“Everything about this place is 10/10. The owners are so genuine, kind and ALWAYS have a smile. Never have I ever entered and not been greeted with enthusiasm! The beverages are handcrafted with so much love, I swear you can taste it. Pragya always takes time and care for each drink she makes. No short cuts- ever! As someone who has been in the service industry for many years, it is a rarity to witness someone day after day, customer after customer provide A+ service not to mention consistency of product! Rabi curates the sandwiches (and other food items but, I am partial to sammies) carefully and thoughtfully- ALWAYS. Every bite has a piece of everything that’s on it which is what truly makes a sandwich amazing. Let me not forget to mention texture break up, variety and unfailing flavor! This is a place you go and feel like family. You’re included, acknowledged and taken care of!“

“Excellent farm brewery located outside of Frederick. Beautiful property and great beer! My husband and I have been here a few times and always enjoyed the beers we have tried, especially the tangerine one! We took home a growler of it. This place is very family friendly, always has food trucks and you can get food delivered as well. Great place to spend an afternoon with family and friends.“

“We celebrated my son’s 17th birthday here and it did not disappoint! The staff were friendly and attentive - multiple people stopped by to fill our water throughout the evening. The decor was really nice with a variety of textures (wood, brick, fabrics, metal). The food was amazeballs. My son and I had the filet and my husband had the duck. And, because it was a celebration, we got 3 different desserts . The chocolate cake was so good, I dropped my fork. We will definitely be back!“

“Great place for brunch and/or just hanging out and having cocktails. Their menu is creative and clever. That goes for both food and drink.The staff members are very attentive and polite.The upstairs lounge is always a vibe.I would recommend this place for a casual outing or for date night.“

“Given the current selection of breweries in Frederick, Idiom is good. Is the beer perfect? Nah. But certainly better than all other options in town. I feel like Idiom is becoming a victim of it's own success, or perhaps I am the victim of their success. With the addition of the kitchen, there are no dogs allowed..not a fan of that. As well as, it gets so busy even during non-peak hours now that there is a line of 5+ people with every trip to the tiny bar. At times this line for beer is ridiculous, but again..there arent great alternative places to go. Anyway..just my thoughts. *moreover, the staff there right now do not seem happy. Not sure if that's because of what I've mentioned, management, other...only they know.*i mean, you can set the record straight, but that doesnt change my thoughts above. Anyway I gave you 4 stars. Do you want 5? If I were waiting in line for Mylar Rings or equivalent, then I might be ok with that. Look at the success of Prospect. At theyre busiest, they dont have the lines that develop at Idiom and they only have like 8 taps. Cushwa also doesnt have lines. Again, just my thoughts. Also, yes, obviously we can bring dogs outside...anywhere.. Lastly, is the staff upset that they work day jobs? I do that as well.. If you arent open to customer feedback I dont see that ending well for you. It's all good man. We go there. We like it. Just feedback.“

“Coming from a fellow Hispanic this is one of the best Mexican food hot spots in the frederick area. Open on friday Saturday and Sunday evenings I would recommend the carne asada or the steak burritos and tacos. You can eat in your car or they will wrap up to go. For those who don't speak Spanish dont worry they speak English!!“

“Brian and Loree were AMAZING to work with. So easy going & replied to us so quickly with any questions we had. The place was very clean. From rehearsal to wedding day, Brian was on top of everything & made sure everyone knew what to do! I HIGHLY recommend working with Brian & going with this venue!!!!!!“

“Very quaint and private ! Wines were good, especially the Syrah S. We bought a mixed case of their wines. Great short walk to the River where tables and chairs are set up for bottle sipping Delightful day … Highly recommend this vineyard.“

“Atta Boy, Attaboy! - Best Wedding Reception VenueWe recently had the pleasure of hosting our dream reception at Attaboy Barrel House, and we can't express enough how impressed we were with the venue's professionalism and enthusiasm. The staff went above and beyond to ensure everything was absolutely perfect.They were organized, efficient, and attentive to every detail. Throughout the planning process, they provided invaluable guidance and support, helping us navigate through various choices and options. Their expertise and experience shone through as they effortlessly handled all the logistics, leaving us stress-free and confident in their ability to execute our vision flawlessly.It was evident that they genuinely love what they do. On the day of the event, the staff's energy and excitement were palpable, and every aspect of the venue exuded an atmosphere of joy and celebration. The staff's dedication and commitment were apparent throughout the day as they coordinated seamlessly with other vendors, ensuring everything unfolded smoothly.We must give a dedicated shoutout to the event coordinator, Kristina, who 's tremendous skill set shined in every possible way. She was such a solid point person for us, plus she knows how to throw a party!In conclusion, Attaboy Barrel House exceeded our expectations in every way. They played a huge role in creating an atmosphere of pure joy and celebration. We are eternally grateful to the entire team for their dedication, expertise, and warm hospitality. We wholeheartedly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a remarkable and unforgettable wedding and/or reception experience.??“

“Great food and for the most part friendly people , but they are understaff but I appreciate them explaining their menu. We will definitely come back.Parking: There’s plenty of space but I can see this place getting super full in the summer time !“

“Beers here are the best I've ever had (and I've had a lot of different beers over the years). Great atmosphere with sort of a Cheers-like feel. Kristy is usually there serving beers. Her knowledge, experience and warm personality make it a pleasure to frequent my visits here. I highly recommend a visit to this place and see for yourself.“

“This is my favorite sandwich shop in Frederick! I usually order the veggie 2 sandwich with extra herb cream cheese. The herbed cream cheese sets it off!!!. It's served with macaroni salad or potato salad and both are equally delicious. You can also get utz chips or gourmet kettle chips to go with your sandwich. Staff are super friendly and service is always speedy.“

“Called to see one of your Friday regulars Terry. Tried a couple of your ales thought the bitter was great, as that's to my taste. Terry bought me a growler of stair way. Very nice a tiny bit on the sweet but will have it again. Back to England tomorrow but when weather gets warmer we will come back up. From DCBeautiful place also great setting.“

“In my opinion the best ice cream you can ever eat. Probably no other place around with the view of 20 miles while you eat and watch all the animals. The people that own and run this gem of a spot are always extremely nice and will always make you feel welcome when you visit.“

“Great brewery! They always have delicious beers on tap, the staff are super cool & helpful, there's a burger place in the back, plenty of seating, changing tables in bathroom for those of us with babies, awesome merchandise, and they have great events there too! There's a parking lot right next to the brewery and lots of street parking.“

“Nothing not to love here at all. Incredibly imaginative and diverse menu of enormous sandwiches, salads and innovative variations on baked potato toppings. What they do, they do with supreme excellence. Pricing is most fair considering the generosity of the serving sizes; definitely a place to share a plate and not to feel bad about it. The "West of Santa Fe" salad hits the sweet spot of what they are best at; Tex-Mex and California cuisine with an upscale feel. Good selection of craft beers too for happy hour or maybe an early dinner before a Frederick Keys game, as we have done many times in the past. Don't let the business park location and industrial feel fool you. Very obviously the restaurant is run by foodies. One note: sub-optimal place for a business lunch or for (say) senior citizens despite the great accessibility: its austere and thus, loud inside. One can come back here dozens of times and not be bored.“

“Stopped in on a Sunday late afternoon in January. They have plenty of beer selections and seltzer options. I had the blood orange IPA and thought it was good. The bartenders were attentive and personable. The atmosphere was easygoing. There was music which was nice. The little creek is just outside the doors - in January the water was frozen but I imagine it is very nice in the warmer months to just be outside enjoying the weather. There was a food truck out in the parking lot - I didn’t eat anything. Parking was easy enough but the lot was small. It might be full in better weather but I’m sure there is street parking nearby. They are dog-friendly here and there were multiple well behaved dogs inside. I’d stop in again if in the area.“

“Monocacy brewing is a great place for a cold and tasty pint. The staff is always friendly, knowledgeable and quick. They only serve beer so you don’t have one person behind the bar having to make cocktails and pour beer.They have a decent inside seating area and plenty of outdoor seating. They have events such as food and beer pairings. We did an ice cream and beer parking which was an awesome and fun experience.My favorite beer here is ghost of the ice cream man which is named because this building used to be an ice cream production plant. If you’re in town trying Frederick’s many beers, you have to try this spot!“

“Ordered catering for my teen’s bday with her friends and our family - so delicious! We had two bbq meats that were both terrific, and the Mac n cheese was a hit. I ordered double and it was still almost all gone. Cornbread was some of the best I’ve had. Delivered on time and warm. Highly recommend! Thanks, Fred!“

“It was a rainy evening, so maybe the ambiance would be better on another evening. Either way, the Catfish special was spectacular. So delicate inside and just the right amount of spice. It came on a bed of perfect and fine-ground grits with sweet and spicy brussel sprouts to die for.“

“Love this place and the people who own & run it. It's my go-to for a breakfast or lunch sandwich (the veggie). My business, Cowork Frederick, also gets food from them on a regular basis. Small or large orders (call ahead for large) - they always provide fresh, tasty food and friendly service. I also love that they use compostable cups.“

“Had a great meal tonight! Service was friendly and prompt without being intrusive. Parker house rolls are a must--but, buttery deliciousness. I had the salmon, literally the best I've ever had. Crispy skin and melt in your mouth fish--perfectly cooked. Caesar salad had Parmesan "churros," a fun surprise. Cocktails were really good, and I had the chocolate egg dessert--milk chocolate egg with salted caramel center sitting on a nest of dark chocolate. Good times. Thanks for a fun and tasty dinner!“

“Attaboy Beer is a DOG FRIENDLY microbrewery that is made up of a garage and beer garden. I recommend coming here if you are into experimentation styles--they enjoy playing around with mixed fermentation and barrel aging. They sell beer and chips. You are welcome to bring your own food to the brewery, however, they do host a food truck every day. Please note that they do have two locations--this page is for the Attaboy Beer spot and not the Barrel House (event and mixing spot).“

“So we had a fantastic time here while visiting my sister in law. It’s right along the River so it’s pretty and the all windows layout brings in a lot of light. There is a family friendly area around the corner so whether you’re looking for a kid friendly spot or a laid back date night it covers both. They walk you through the ordering process and you can grab half beers or whatever you feel like from the wal taps as it’s self service. They have an excellent section of beers and being able to grab smaller pours of the heavy ones makes it easier to grab a lot of samples (and a great conversation starter if you’re on a date). They also have wine, cocktails and NA stuff that my pregnant wife was able to enjoy. The food is not your typical bar food. We got the tater tots, the artichoke flatbread, pizza, the bison burger bowl which was freakin’ amazing and these spicy brisket sliders on pretzel buns that were fantastic. Nothing was overpowering, the flavors were nice. It’s comfort food but well done. I need to try the wings next time but I’m confident they would be properly done. As a random bonus we met the owners and they were just really good people who made sure to stop by and check in with us. 10/10 will come here again, worth a stop if you’re in the area or even making a trip in this direction.“

“This was our first time at Maytas. there were four of us. the staff was very friendly. they served us immediately. the chicken empanadas and the round golden potatoes were very tasty and made a great appetizer. for dinner we got chicken with yucca salad and rice. it was a large meal and delicious. the coffee is very good. Similar pricing to most places right now. we will definitely go back again“

“By far my FAVORITE coffee shop in the DMV. The most unique, cozy, spacious, aesthetic, and friendly place. I love getting work done and socializing here! Dog-friendly, has the best vegan options for meals, pastries, and drinks, and a phenomenal rewards program. They have tons of coffee that you can buy and make at home too. Sundays they have live jazz and blues music from a band that is spectacular! I’m a regular now and they know my usual order, even giving it to me automatically once they see me. The flights let you try 4 coffee types at once in mini glass mason cups and is a fantastic option to take advantage of each month’s monthly flavors! I love their creative monthly lattes. Their iced chai latte is my daily go-to. No other place compares to Dublin!“

“I ate all my rolls before I thought to photograph them ? This place is my new go-to for Sushi in Frederick. Rolls were delicious, fresh, and large. The pricing is fair and I really appreciate the number of vegetarian options.Edit: added a photo of my last order. Huge rolls“

“Straight to the point, these tacos were STUFFED. I really appreciated how much meat came in each taco, only thing is that the different meats didn't really taste too different from each other. Other than that the staff was great and welcoming. Plus, the restaurant itself was clean and had lots of seating. I actually liked the fact that they leave all the topping at a side bar for you to add yourself.“

“This is my favorite Coldstone by far. The ice cream is always perfect but it´s my GIRLS Hailey, Gabby, and Julia that every time I come greet customers with a smile and great customer service. I had ABOVE and beyond service this week when due to many compounded concussions (which they didn´t know of) memory loss is something that gets worse. I completely forgot to ask for dark chocolate instead of regular chocolate and I was so sad! The girls asked me if I wanted them to remake it and I felt really, really bad about making them do that but they did it happily. They always give generous portions so you feel like you get your money´s worth all around. These girls need a raise, they are the best!!!“

“Would definitely recommend this place. The young man that took our order was courteous, polite and patient despite being busy. I should of asked for his name, This was just now, if you are the employee reading this review… Kudos! Great customer service!“

“We had a large party, as our family and friends hadn't seen one another in a long time. Alani was our server, and she was very attentive, personable, and friendly! When she saw one of us trying to take a selfie of everyone at our table, she asked if we'd like her to take some pictures of us. We were very pleased with her service, and the food was great!“
