50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Mills River

“Great place. great owner . Rotating food trucks . Very dog friendly!!!“

“Awesome, love the constantly changing ciders based on time of year. Never a long wait either with plenty of seating.
My only complaint is some of the bar staff can have zero personality or be outright rude which is very off putting. Other than the interactions with them, 5 stars.“

“Had lunch with you yesterday. very impressed great service delicious food. Glad I found you will return. 👏👏“

“I haven’t had this kind of experience in a long time. Staff were very attentive and the attractive chief even thanked me for my patience when the timing was not at all an issue. I ordered 30mins before the kitchen closed so I was the one that should be thanking them. Hands down recommend. I was alone and enjoyed myself very much. Thank you.“

“I might call it a really freakin' good pizza co. Even a great pizza company. Buy the size and get your pick of toppings. Service was friendly and pleasant. Pizza was ready right on time for pick-up as I walked in. Will definitely go again.“

“First time here and was not at all disappointed! Great food and a variety of food to choose from. Win win…. Beers were cold and a good selection to choose from. Great relaxing atmosphere. Will definitely be back and spend more time enjoying the grounds….“

“Rocky’s came Highly recommended from Emma, at the tasting room Eda Ryne. The very best food we have eaten in a LONG time!! The fried green tomatoes with pepper jelly and goat. Cheese were the Best Ever, along with the Medium fried chicken! I'll be telling everyone I know that visits the Biltmore, to stop here for lunch/ dinner!“

“We had dinner here last night after a movie. I honestly don't think I've ever had better service in my 70 years! We had at least 4 people working with us from the main server, main cocktail person and several others. Each was inquisitive about us and acted as if we were their only table. The food was awesome. Best cornbread ever! I had ribs which were delicious and I supstituted the sides with no problem. My husband had crabcakes which were authentic Maryland style with no fillers and lots of crab. The drinks, an Old Fashioned and Manhattan, were some of the best I've had and I consider myself an Old Fashioned connoisseur! The prices are high but no higher than other restaurants. We are locals and HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“

“The Sierra Nevada brewery is awesome! First off the facility is absolutely fantastic. It’s large but the building and the entire campus are immaculately clean & well kept. It still looks brand new. The tour itself was excellent providing great historical content & insight into their state of the art current operations. Following up the tour with a visit to the Taproom restaurant is a must. The food is phenomenal & the service is top notch. Finally, it was so enjoyable to finish the day with a beer on the patio. I give the Sierra Nevada brewery tour & Taproom my highest recommendation. Can’t wait to take other friends for a visit.“

“Order the Cubanito if you love espresso and aren’t in the mood for a latte or Americano. It’s tiny but mighty. Sweet, balanced and absolutely the best I’ve ever had!“

“Had lunch with you yesterday. very impressed great service delicious food. Glad I found you will return. 👏👏“

“Recomiendo los mejores tacos y la atención del mesonero Manuel y Shia“

“If you enjoy a good classic hotdog for a very affordable price, this is the place. We had lunch ch for 2 with drinks for $19.00.. Footling with chili and slaw, tater tots with chili, large drink with free refills for me. A smoked sausage dog, fries and a large drink for my wife.
Service was quick, food quality was great. Hard to ask for more. Will be back next ti.ee we are in Hendersonville.“

“We had our Christmas Party for Fountain Of Youth Day Spa Dec 19 and Hey Chickadee did all the food from appetizers to desserts , wish I had gotten pictures. Everyone raved about how good the food was !!! Thank you“

“We are visiting from St. Louis, where we have many great pizza options. We were looking for something that could compete with our favorites from home. Fahrenheit did not disappoint. The garlic knots were delicious. The salad was quite good. The pizza was great. The service was excellent and we liked the laidback and quiet atmosphere. I highly recommend.“

“First experience yesterday I had the chicken sandwich with fries . Hands down one of the best chicken sandwiches I have ever ate in my life and even the fries were perfect. I definitely will be a regular customer!!! The market area just topped it all off I got two bars of soap and can’t wait to try them they smell so amazing“

“Had a great visit to the vineyard. Quiet and relaxing atmosphere. Great wines and a good variety. Hosts were friendly and helpful. Highly recommend.“

“Can no believe I have missed this place! Wow. We had the huevos rancheros, southwest chicken quesadillas and the kids for the French toast. It was incredible. Food was fresh, flavorful; staff was friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back“

“10/10 recommend! Last weekend to decided to get out of the house with our 2yr old. We loved this place before having our son because of the outdoor space. The owner was so kind and let my son “help” take down some outdoor decorations. Then paid him for his hard work with a juice box. Made his night! Thank you!“

“Never once had a bad experience / it’s not just dinner / it’s an experience!“

“So glad we discovered this gem of a magical sweet little farm! Playground and chickens and farm life wins for the kids and lovely atmosphere and great options for the adults! Especially loved the kombucha options! Wish every brewery offered them. This place is at our family’s top local spots after just one visit.“

“The servers are all very friendly, and very understanding of my food intolerances!! This is one of the only places I can eat and I really appreciate them!! The owner is very nice as well and the food is wonderful !“

“First time in, been wanting to check it out for a while. Everything was great!“

“Veteran owned and operated! The owner and I have actually been to some of the same places in Germany!! Everyone is very friendly!“

“They have the BEST lavender vanilla coffee (on their menu its the lavanilla) & the chocolate donuts are so good! Their donuts are so light & fluffy & fresh! 10/10 recommend! Absolutely love them & I'm so happy I tried them!“

“The first time I tried to eat at Vinnie’s, the wait was an hour and a half—a clear sign that something magical was happening inside. Stepping into the warm, retro atmosphere with its classy bar, fun staff, and nostalgic wall art, you realize the wait is just part of the experience. From their legendary Sunday Gravy to classic family-style comfort dishes, the energy in the room is electric. Vinnie’s proves that a line out the door isn't a bottleneck; it’s proof of a thriving neighborhood icon.

Italian comfort dining built on pasta, dough, and slow-simmered sauces enjoys fantastic core margins. Vinnie’s leverages this strength by keeping the dining room bustling and tables turning with high-energy, attentive service that never feels rushed. By pairing tight cost management with a welcoming community spirit, they transform physical space into a recession-proof engine for making memories.“

“We had a lovely visit here last evening while briefly in the area. They are doing alright after the terrible hurricane thankfully!!!!! Over the years this has been our favorite go to spot and yesterday was no different. Food very tasty, plentiful, feel is a positive price point. I personally can be a bit picky about barbecue, I really don’t care for excessive fat in my meat and I find the brisket is perfectly lean!! 2 employees who are new to us as we haven’t been back in two years, Ian and Sheryl were very pleasant, smiles on their faces, communicative, and remained diligent in providing great service. They have had some updates on their menu, not as many side choice selections but the ones we all chose were most appetizing! I do miss the pineapple casserole side and was told its available on the menu in the fall. Spouse also feels their beer selection is great. They were all out of the popular homemade banana and wafer pudding, but just gives us something to look forward to during our next visit as we will absolutely continue to eat here. Positive all around! Tasty, clean, and lovely folks all working inside thank you thank you!“

“Great spot to grab some beers and enjoy some live music! They have plenty of options to choose from, so there’s something for everyone. There’s also plenty of seating and space to sit back, relax, and enjoy the atmosphere.

The staff was super nice and even let us try a few beers from their small-batch list, which was a great touch. There’s also a food truck on site, and based on their calendar, it looks like they have something different going on each day of the week. Definitely a fun place to hang out.“

“Great place great staff!!!!“

“My daughter and I stopped in Mt pleasant location today for the first time ! It was yummy ! Can’t wait to go back ! The pork belly was off the chain !“

“Loved this small cidery! Delicious ciders that can be experimented with through the use of sweet syrup. Small food plates were outstanding. Great atmosphere along with the gracious-friendly hosts. Highly recommend!!!!“

“Very fresh and unique tacos!“

“Place always looked sketchy but the lines of cars tell the truth-it’s a cute place with quality coffee. Glad to have it as a coffee option.“

“Great place for food and drinks, with a hard working friendly staff. I enjoyed performing there the other night and look forward to it again.“

“I just want to say that the woman who always takes my order is such a joy. She’s always nice and has great customer service skills!“

“I love coming here with friends. The atmosphere is incredible and the live music is always good. Drinks are affordable and they have food which is amazing. I definitely recommend checking this place out. This business really stepped up during Helene and it still continues to do so.“

“Good stuff! Enjoy it often, but alas, not often enough…“

“I was prepared to write a '5', but in truth there were a number of small things that kept me from going there. First, it's a cool space off the beaten track. The beer is good, the mural is superb. The house food truck was passable. I was expecting a little higher standard on the sandwiches, but I may be a bit picky.
And the fryer was down. No fault there - they've got a new one on the way.
My biggest critique was the number of aggressive dogs there. I take my dog to a fair number of taprooms around the country, and honestly - many of these (6+) would've been 86'd by staff at most taprooms. My dog loves to interact, and would not have understood the aggressiveness.“

“friendly bartender. nice suggestions on what else/where else we should try.“

“Great service and happy people They found my wallet and sent it to me no problem, very respectful and honest“

“If you’re looking for somewhere to view the sports on TV, this is the place to go. Great staff and wonderful food.“

“I had a lovely first experience. Unsure what to order, Bart asked about my preferences and dislikes, including Amaretto. He crafted a masterpiece. The place was chic and fun! 🥃🥃🥃“

“Friendly atmosphere, lovely staff, delicious options to eat/drink! Highly recommend! �“

“First time visiting Eggs Up Grill and just want to say everything was delicious. I enjoy a good country breakfast and this fit the bill. Our server Bristol was awesome!“

“Family-style, family-friendly, family-owned ice cream shoppe. There are so many wonderful sweet options and huge cases of Hershey's ice cream. There is also a lovely lunch menu with Nathan's hot dogs, sandwiches, and salads. There is cozy seating indoors and lots of fun spaces outdoors to sit (or swing) while eating. This is a place that has something for anyone in your family. The staff is very kind and very helpful.“

“My husband and I absolutely loved this place! We were visiting the area for a few days and couldn’t get enough of the fresh food here The poke bowls were delicious . Nikki was pleasant professional and understanding toward my food allergy The menu is clearly marked since I am gluten intolerant. Place is kept super clean by staff ! Do not hesitate to eat here !!!“

“We stopped by 12 Bones with our two frenchies after hiking outside of Hendersonville on our way to our Airbnb in Fletcher. We loved that they were so dog friendly in the taproom, even providing us with a bowl of water for them. The beer selection was great, & the food was awesome too! My husband had the Hogzilla with baked beans & I had the BLT with corn pudding. Everything was absolutely delicious! One of our primary goals on vacation is always to eat unique foods, & these certainly helped us fulfill that. Everyone was so sweet to our dogs & service was great. Thanks for helping make my husband's birthday weekend great!“
