50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Traverse City

“Wonderful service and good food 🍲“

“OMG… SOOOOO GOOD! We called ahead to see how busy it was and Stephanie was delightful on the phone. When we came in Stephanie’s warmth, charm and friendliness met us at the door! She chatted with us about the restaurant and how it’s a product of her and her husband’s love for food. Everything is sourced from specific farmers so they know where all their ingredients are coming from! 💗 Our sever Vynessa 😊 was AMAZING, took great care of us, gave recommendations, chatted with us and poured love into her service! The food…. Holy smokes, it was so effing good! We had risotto, the flavors and textures just complemented each other perfectly, the best risotto I’ve ever had. The quiche was just as good and had great ingredients of rapini, sweet potato, broccoli, carmalized onions and more! We also had roasted potatoes and bacon sausage. We grabbed a scone and cinnamon roll to go, haven’t tried them at the time of posting this review. Please go here, support small, support local and have some of the best food of your life! P.S. it was so good, we went back the next day and it was just as wonderful! 💗“

“I treated my friends to dinner tonight and the service was just as fabulous as the food. Our server was Kateri (Kat) she took great care of us and also recommended some of the food items on the menu. Everything was delish. We are definitely going back. Thanks Kat for your great hospitality 😁“

“Amazing! Went in to enjoy breakfast with my girls and couldn’t have been more impressed. The food is to die for!! The atmosphere is perfect. The staff is great!. I would highly recommend going in, you WILL NOT be disappointed“

“Very comfortable atmosphere, greeted instantly, had help with the menu / ingredients in the food / coffee I was interested in. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING food and coffee. I had the grilled turkey on jalapeño cheddar sour dough with a sugar free cold brew. Honestly the best food I’ve had locally in a while. 1,000% recommend trying at least once but I’ll be back since the menu is HUGE.“

“My kids say the pancakes and potatoes are out of this world! Perfectly cooked bacon, fresh squeezed OJ. For those with a more diverse palate don’t pass up on the stuffed pepper. Kimmy took great care of us!“

“Beautiful winery, first time checking them out based off a friends suggestion! We learned they don’t do flights but the glasses were very reasonably priced($7-12/glass). Beautiful view of the vines and great service. Even chatted with an owner for a moment! Give them a shot if you’re in the area“

“Great! Love the tofu scramble. Re potatoes- suggestion: they used to be better; now to small, get overcooked too easily. No flavor.“

“AMAZING! Finally made it to Peninsula Cellars and it is now my favorite place, the cider and wine was so very good! The merlot slushie and in house sangria were so very delicious. Historic schoolhouse is so cute, Sarah was so very friendly and helpful. I cannot wait to go back!“

“We loved taproot!! Food was amazing.! Great for gluten free and vegan. Even had a small dog menu! Our pup had a burger for dinner and our waitress was fantastic and welcoming to us and our dog! Thanks for a great experience! We will be back“

“What a great find! Excellent brews and food. I was craving a good salad after having too much roadtrip food. The chicken salad did not disappoint. On top of that the staff was so welcoming and friendly. I’d definitely make this a regular if I came here regularly.“

“My husband and I both enjoy Indian food. This is hands down the BEST Indian food we’ve ever had! I had Daal Tadka and my husband had Daal Madkani. We also shared garlic naan. The ambience is modern with of course an Indian vibe. The aromas walking in were very enticing yet not over powering. They have a large variety of food. Plenty of vegetarian options which I was pleased with. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Service was timely yet not constantly interrupting. The chef brings the food to your table which was a lovely touch. I’m addition to the food being delicious, it’s very generous portions. We both had plenty left over to take home. Highly recommend this gem when you’re in Traverse City. We will likely visit it again before we head home next week!“

“Amazing whisky, great atmosphere. A must stop when you are nearby.“

“Earthen Ales is a pleasant place to enjoy a beer. I stopped by to try a flight of beers and really enjoyed their darker ales. It feels pretty casual and welcoming, and I like how it’s kind of hidden away back there. I’ll have to look out for their beers in my neck of the woods.“

“It's always a pleasure to visit Left Foot Charley. Brandon and the crew are great hosts and they are knowledgeable about their unique selection of wines and ciders. Know what you like? They'll have it. Not sure what you'd like? They'll help you pick it. If you visit in the winter, try a mug of warm Cinnamon Girl. We visit monthly from suburban Detroit - if I lived closer, I'd be there every day!“

“If you have a pup, this is the place to be. We took our 11-month-old puppy out for her first time. All the other dogs were very friendly and greeted her at the door. Then they went outside for a good romp in the big yard. The humans were also quite friendly and welcoming. It has a very cozy and welcoming atmosphere. There were a good number of beers on tap and tasty creative holiday drinks. We will definitely return.“

“Beautiful winery, amazing service, and a beautiful view!“

“This was one of our favorite sushi places we've ever been to. The sushi was really good! The staff was helpful when we had questions and we needed help identifying pictures with the menu. We had the spicy edamame and seaweed salad for an appetizer, and they were both delicious! The drinks were flavorful and we were satisfied with our whole experience! Everyone was nice and kind!“

“True diamond in the rough, food is excellent. Can’t wait to go back again. Thank you Peegeo’s!!“

“The best chicken soup you can get in TC!!!!“

“Good location fun can bring dog“

“amazing drinks and fantastic service!“

“First time here and it was delicious!!! Fresh, fast , tasty food and friendly service! I don’t make it to TC often, but I’d make a trip for this place when I do!“

“I arrived with one thing in mind, something to help kidney and liver function. there was choices and they were very helpful is narrowing down to exactly what was right for me. their knowledge and customer service are something you only see with locally owned businesses and their passion for tea is phenomenal! Thank you!“

“my friends and family love Mulligans thanks for the consistent quality!“

“This has been my favorite stop of our vacation thus far. The beer selection is large so I initially figured it was a quantity of quality place. NOPE. Every beer we tried was solid if not out right delicious. The pizza is made to order and the crust is made by a local. It was incredibly enjoyable. The owner was there working his butt off which shows me just how much heart goes into opening everyday. The staff was attentive and the regulars were friendly. Not to mention that the atmosphere is a vibe.“

“We love chilling at Silver Spruce when we come back to our hometown, so we had to use them to cater beer for our wedding day! We were able to do a few kegs of different kinds & it was an absolute hit! Super easy because of self pouring option with the jockey box and delicious! Highly recommend Silver Spruce Brewing for your wedding day brews!“

“Best Iced Pumpkin Latte I've had!!“

“Great food! Brought the family out for Ramen and nobody left hungry. Even grandson approved!“

“great coffee and ambiance!“

“This winery was at a time, one I’d ignore. I never found the wines very interesting. However!!!, we visited the winery and they got rid of all the tchotchkes to focus on the wine. If you are fortunate enough to meet the tasting manager Hiro Miura, you will learn about gorgeous, delicious, interesting facts about grapes in every stage and distinction and contribution to the final product called wine. I’m a retired chef and I learned so much in our relatively short visit to the vineyard. I enjoy making connections with people I meet along my travels. This visit was marked as a favorite. Thank you Hiro for sharing your passion.
Warmly,
Sharilyn“

“Fun, friendly and energetic staff. they make you excited to get your coffee/Energizer. My daughter was struggling to decide what she wanted and the person taking our order asked her probing questions (like what's your favorite candy, lemonade flavor, lollipop flavor) to help her decide what to get! Definitely recommend!“

“Staff was SO kind and accommodating to our boy's (loud and busy 🙂) soccer team!! Pizza was delicious and space worked so well for our larger group. THANK YOU to Ben and staff for the hospitality! We will definitely be back when we're in TC and recommend to others.“

“Delicious food, meticulously crafted coffee, friendly and accommodating staff. I’m one of those “needy coffee people” and I know I can count on a great cappuccino every time. The space is clean and bright and welcoming. I’ve spent more than one afternoon working with my laptop there and it is a comfortable, welcoming environment.“

“The view was pretty. My family and I got charcuterie board snd the flight. We also got the desert wine. Everything was yummy. I brought the bottle of desert wine and a wine glass to take hone. Looking forward to going there next year.“

“Great little place in Traverse City! They have a good variety of tasty beers and the pizza was delicious!“

“Best ice cream shop yet !, fresh and unique. was so delicious and they made it quickly!“

“Great ice cream! And Mac and cheese. Deb is the BEST!!! She's always so friendly and up beat!!!“

“Always delicious and a beautiful building inside and out. Highly recommend for alone time, group of friends or would be a great treat for a work group. Now there’s a restaurant and brewery in the same building, excited to try it all! Kudos to the talented and friendly staff at Seismoto.“

“Amazing server and food!!“

“We visited on 7/8 for a lunch. Food was delicious as always. My nephew accidentally dropped his very FULL shake and it hit the wall and spilled on the floor. The staff was incredibly kind and gracious, replacing his drink very quickly and cleaned up the mess in no time. He was VERY sad and embarrassed but Eden was so sweet and showed him such grace. Thank you for helping him feel ok with having an accident and not making him feel worse! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“One of my favorite restaurants - it has excellent options for meat lovers (the braised short ribs are delightful) and vegetarians (the quinoa masa cakes are so good)! Don't forget dessert here either.“

“Everything about my experience with them for my wedding was perfect! Booking was easy and Sharon really worked with us since we lived out of state. Being from Texas, my guests and I had very high expectations for our bbq and they absolutely delivered. I’m still hearing about how it was the best brisket they’ve ever had. And the service from Caitlyn and the others on the day of was phenomenal. I highly recommend!!!“

“Small quaint makes good memories“

“Great food, friendly staff and the owner is awesome!“

“I’ve been to Bonobo Winery a few times and every time has been incredible. The large deck is perfect in the warmer months and the fireplaces inside make it so cozy in the winter. Great views, delicious wine, and friendly staff. We’ll keep coming back!“
