50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Portland

“Impossibly wonderful food and vibe! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I expected great coffee and got it, but the biscuits and scones were delicious- even better than my own homemade.“

“We had such a delicious meal at Scales! Everything was presented beautifully and tasted excellent. Service was on-point and the atmosphere is super chic. I would recommend this restaurant to everyone in the Portland area!“

“We highly enjoyed our visit to the area and Eventide! Food was great - oysters and lobster roll were amazing, great atmosphere, and employee serving oysters gave us good info on area. We will definitely make another visit to Eventide from Austin, TX!“

“We totally enjoyed our first visit to Luke’s. There were 4 of us. The service was quick, the food was delicious, the vibe was somewhat key west and the staff were so great!! Definitely returning. Thank you“

“The best breakfast I have ever had, and I own a breakfast restaurant 😂 Super friendly staff, well worth the wait ! If you don't try the hollandaise I will question all your life decisions. Blueberry Fleur Mimosa ... 12/10! Try this spot if you're in the area, we will travel back 3 hours just for brunch !“

“This is my favorite restaurant. My favorite meal here is the clams & linguine. I have been obsessed with clams & linguine for decades and have had it a ridiculous number of times, all over the world, including at least 20 times in Italy. And Street & Co makes it the absolute best, by far. It goes beyond my ability to articulate its amazingness but I will say it's for garlic LOVERS. Service at Street & Co is also extraordinary. The only reason I give it 4 instead of 5 stars is it's open today (during the ICE shutdown) and not donating money to causes supporting immigrants! You basically get to choose one or the other to not be an awful company.. and yet here we are. So disappointed :(“

“We're from out of town and thought the concept of this place was intriguing- ended up loving it! Sipped on some delicious hot chocolate at the window side bar area while my husband shopped for some Christmas pre rolls. Life is good here :)“

“We had dinner last night and it was excellent!!! Service was wonderful, drinks were perfect and the food was amazing. Highly recommend!“

“The duck isn’t the only thing that’s going to be fat after you dine here! The food was amazing. The biggest highlight was the duck fat poutine, and it’s totally worth adding the fried egg and the duck confit on top! The duck fat milkshakes were thick, creamy and so delicious. The ONLY reason I didn’t give the atmosphere 5 stars is because the inside has the stools fixed to the floor and you can’t move them, which makes it very hard for a larger individual to sit anywhere comfortably. Fortunately, we were able to move outside and sit where the chairs could be moved, and it was perfect!“

“We brought our soccer team over for a team kick-off party and couldn't have picked a better spot. The staff was so friendly and excited to see us, the food/drinks were delicious, and all our families said it was the perfect spot to gather. We'll definitely be back!“

“Brought some of your Maine State Lager home with me to Villa Rica Georgia. What a fantastic beer!!!“

“Some like old antique places and find them charming. I do not. Our server was wonderful in my opinion and the food runners. All food was prepared well. My issue was amount of options and flavors. Interesting flavors did not love. Quality preparation. Very few drink options if you aren’t drinking alcohol. Their menu rotates so maybe it’s better on a different menu.“

“Meilleur oatmeal EVER parfait petit café🤘🏼“

“This place is amazing. Very LGBTQ friendly, and wonderfully nice management.“

“Some of the best beer in Southern Maine, always a ton on tap“

“I always enjoy stopping in when I’m in the Portland area! Only place with other options besides the ol run of the mill lobster with butter or mayo. Delicious!“

“The best in Portland. Great beer and wonderful employees. Cannot wait until they can distribute to Minnesota!!“

“delicious food, three excellent beers on tap. loved the vibe from the moment I walked in.“

“An unpretentious, low-key German restaurant that lives up to the hype . Delicious , real deal German food ..just like your oma would make !“

“Best Gelato I’ve ever had! I’ve been to a few different places but none even compare. I had the Hazelnut and Sea Salt Caramel and they were mouth watering. My bf had Maine Wild Blueberry and Oreo and we almost went back for more that night! Eagerly waiting for Boston Creme to come back so I can try it!!“

“Love it! My husband is obsessed now 🙂“

“Nice place to have a beer with friends.“

“Walked into the Portland location at 7:57 on a Saturday when they close at 8:00 and they graciously served me, even though it was clear they had finished cleaning up for the night. I am a regular at the Scarborough commissary throughout the summer and this was my first time visiting the Portland location. The staff all said hello to me with a smile and conversation and had no problem packing a few rolls for me to go! Great staff and always consistent food!“

“Warm welcoming staff, happy regulars, creative events, top notch dedication to their draft list pouring from clean lines and glassware, passionate owners who are present and make food from scratch. A true Portland gem!“

“Amazing beer. Friendly Staff. Cozy atmosphere. Good people. Go there!“

“Awesome place! We went for the first time yesterday, and we were not disappointed with the food and drinks! The 🦞 roll was one of the best that we’ve had. We ordered a cheese plate and oysters as well, and they were both delicious. Hidden gem tucked away in the Old Port! We will definitely be back again.“

“Oh My God what a gem this place is! First off when you walk in it smells incredible. I had the Godmother grilled cheese. It was so good I couldn't hold a conversation......or maybe it was their margaritas!! Anyway the sandwich was unbelievable and the "secret sauce" on the side for dipping is something I didn't think I needed but ended up wanting to be buried in!“

“Wonderful service and excellent food!“

“everytime I come to Portland I try new restaurants and this place definitely is one of my favorites so far! great on a cold day“

“We wandered in today and sat at the bar. We were so impressed with both the service and the food. The bartender was cordial, friendly, and extremely attentive. We had a flatbread that was absolutely delicious and chicken, bacon ranch salad with house made ranch that was exceptional. Closer than any. We don’t have a flatbread company near our home sure wish we did.“

“Went during the day and got to sample 6 of their mixed drinks. The guy behind the bar told us the Boston Tea Party drink was selling out and wouldn’t return, which was too bad because it was the best one on the menu. Everything else, unfortunately, was just okay.

It was really nice they let us bring in outside food! And if you order food and eat there they will give you $2off your drink order.

Parking was easy. The staff were friendly. The space is really cool. They drinks were just alright.“

“Great fish market that is worth the trip to Commercial St. They will cut it for you to the amount you want. Fish is always fresh. And their prices are reasonable“

“We traveled from Memphis to Maine and tried out several different highly recommended lobster roll spots. None could compare to Bite Into Maine, soooo good. The next time im in Maine I will def be coming back“

“I am the owner and operator of Hager Photography and I had the immense pleasure of photographing a few events at Rising Tide this year. A wedding reception and a private rehearsal dinner. This was such a perfect venue! Clean, fun, laid-back, and I can't stress this enough - TONS OF PARKING. Great location, close to the heart of downtown Portland. You would be very wise to consider Rising Tide for your event. I can't wait to go back!“

“Had an absolute blast hosting our Winter Film Challenge kickoff party here. Awesome communication, staff and vibe. Cant wait to come back!“

“Very cool place to grab some great beers! Definitely stop in if you get the chance. We loved the sours on tap (Frusch!)“

“Very efficient and speedy delivery - a whole 9lbs Maine tuna toro. Is this skin side up or belly side up?“

“Best brewery I have been to in Maine don’t pass up going there. Staff is amazing“

“If you haven’t had the Boone’s fish house oyster room experience your missing out on some delicious food, great cocktails and fabulous beer choices. The atmosphere is such a great vibe with ocean views from their decks in the warmer weather to dine on, they have two bars to choose from I love the second floor one a nice open space with plenty of room to sit and have a drink and good conversation without the back ground noise from other tables. They have a beautiful setting to host your events with friendly knowledgeable staff to make it a personal experience for your needs.“

“Dog friendly, and yummy BBQ most days. We can’t wait to make another trip!“

“Had absolutely an amazing experience at N to Tail Restaurant today! From delicious food to drinks and exceptional service—we will absolutely be back! Thank you!“

“This top notch crew served our employee appreciation day today. most of us first time trying their food. very good food. Great customer service. I would definitely recommend them.“

“Avocado Toast, hash browns, yummy pastries“

“What can you say?? It's New England's first craft brewery, opened a few months before that MA patriot one. :D They keep it simple with a quaint tasting room, plenty of seating outside in great weather, very comfortable and still fantastic brews!! Definitely recommend!“

“Great chicken parm calzone.. Courtney was great at the bar she made us a mean margaritas.“

“This place packs a punch for a hotel bar. The theming is great, there are multiple seating options (bar, couches, tables, lounge space) and the bartenders are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Sheila and Mena are standouts, always happy to share their Portland experience and mix up any drink you like. 100% recommend for hotel guests and locals alike.“

“I visited the Thames location. The open space atmosphere was very bright and refreshing. Menu was quite particular in terms of beans origins and varieties. I had a lot of questions, but the employee helping me did not really know answers about the specifics on the board. So I just got what seemed healthy and tasty after a quick google of some details. I had the Kenya Gatina AA – washed Batian Ruru with notes of blackberry, caramel, and orange zest. It was far from my typical, and I can appreciate that the coffee was of a good quality, but my experience would've been much more enjoyable if I could've been directed to flavors more suited to my palate. Beautiful view and in an easy to find area!“

“We went here around lunch hours to get some drinks. There was no customer at the store. Alongside boba teas, they had some small snacks and bites in the menu. There were some spots to sit in at the store too.

We ordered a thai tea, milk tea and mango slush. They had the first two in shaken style meaning small bits of ice. The barista took some time to make the drinks, seemed not so proficient in making them. But the drinks turned out okay. The that tea had good flavor. Mango slush was tasty initially but got really watery at the end. Bobas were fine, not as good quality as I had in other places. Overall a decent place since its the only bobas store we saw in the area.“

“If I had those stars to give, I would give Ribollita at least 1 star: It was just that good! ⭐️⭐️ The chef makes his own pasta. The dishes are perfectly done. The sauces are perfectly prepared. When I asked if the chef could add a garnish of pine nuts to the Fettuccine Alfredo and spinach, he obliged me and toasted them perfectly. You will be glad you had dinner at Ribollita's when you visit this restaurant!“
