16 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Pisgah Forest

“I love to camp and around Brevard is a great place, but I also like good coffee which I haven't figured out how to make in a campground. Stopped in here with my daughter and both of us had the best coffee we could remember. I had the Americana / coffee and she had the dirty chai. Pup cups for the dogs of course... Came back the next day for two different drinks and they were awesome as well.Seems like there can be a bit of a wait during the peak morning rush but it doesn't last long and it's well worth the wait anyway.Hopefully I'm not messing up the ranking by giving only four stars... especially when I'm not sure what to improve, but I'm a tough grader so don't let that throw you, it's great coffee. Almost forgot! she gave us some great tips for vegan food in Asheville and a couple of cool places to check out in the area as well. Now I really feel like a jerk for only giving four stars!“

“Super tasty food, craft drinks and they are brewing their own craft beer (YUM!). Great listening room and sound system- relaxed neat venue. The space out back is large and you can listen to the music behind the stage when the large garage door is open : ) ? place“

“I seldom write reviews, but this experience was exceptional, and I also own a restaurant in another city. The service was outstanding: John, who is also a bartender, and Chris, who was training under him, were fantastic. The square root salad with figs was superb, and the Brussels sprouts were delicious too. They exceeded expectations, and I was impressed by the service and quality.Ps. The GM, pretty sure ‘Jacob’ was authentic and great as well.“

“I met a friend here for ice-cream a couple of weeks ago. The staff was extremely friendly, professional, courteous and kind. The ice-cream was nice and cold and sooo yummy. There is no inside dining, as it is an ice-cream stand. They have picnic tables to sit at and one could always eat in their car. They have a drive up window for ordering as well. I had such a wonderful time and look forward to going back. If you find yourself in Etowah, or passing through, I highly recommend you consider stopping in for something. They also have food items too. Based on my positive experience, I highly recommend.“

“Update April, 2024: always came here for the burgers but appears as if co-owning with Victory has eliminated the GF buns! It's our last time here..sad as we really loved the many cider choices. :-(They've really done a good job of social distancing & enforcing masks when away from your immediate seating area. Good food too! They offer a GF bun & the bbq is too. Best burger I've had in a very long time! The Pineapple Freeze will knock your socks off...esp on a hot afternoon!“

“We visited this brewery during our week long trip to Pisgah with our two German shorthair pointers. Our hike was rained out, though we attempted it anyway. After aborting the hike due to weather, we decided to look for a place to get a mid-day beer. We looked at a couple breweries, even drove to Sierra Nevada Brewery. SN was disappointing since their outdoor area was not covered nor open for service apparently. We then went to Burning Blush to check it out. This was also one of few places open at noon (and it was a weekday). Lucky for us, they allow pups inside, which was a plus given the weather. The place was quiet but as I said, was a weekday with terrible weather. The beers were great, the food truck was amazing, and the staff were very kind. They gave our pups a few biscuits (which they loved). My dogs are my kids, so I'm happy to have found this place! Def recommend if traveling with furry friends! We would 100% go back when we are in the area again. THANK YOU FOR YOUR KINDNESS TO OUR POINTERS!“

“This restaurant is usually amazing, today they were very busy and short staffed and I got plastic utensils for the first time after going over 20+ times, I highly recommend the massaman curry. But overall a great place to eat and with the summer coming up these conditions shouldn't be too surprising.Vegetarian options: Tofu and veggie options.“

“I love this place. My husband and I came back from Looking Glass Waterfall, which was incidentally passing this way, and I saw the saw Oskar Blues Brewery sign it take a right. Then we followed the map and found the big can and big buildings, and we tried to drive to behind and found bar beer. The temperature was perfect and the music was very good.“

“Its been my go to place when I visit Asheville. I aways order the veggie Pizza they have. They let me customize my pizza and always make it to perfection. I have been coming here for over 4 years now and the staff is really good. They recently moved to a new location and have awesome interior and a nice dining area. Can't wait to visit again.“

“Wine Down is under new management and is now open Monday through Saturday 3 to 9. The always great wine menu has been expanded with some tasty new choices. The atmosphere is warm and cozy. They also have an excellent selection of craft beers. The food is great, the daily soup special is always amazing.“

“First time visit and WOW! What a great first impression. Nice open bar with plenty of taps to choose from. Excellent beer and well crafted. There is also a liquor bar for your favorite cocktail.Food trucks are a staple and offer a nice variety of fare.The outdoor space is unbelievable. Plenty of seating and picnic tables. Cornhole is also abundant.Great live music on the weekends.All around a really nice place that’s family and dog friendly.“

“I asked for suggestions on both wine and meal and they matched together the perfect dinner!! I will definitely be going again and recommend anyone to go for an authentic Mexican meal.Dietary restrictions: My boss is on a gluten diet and he loved his meal!! They are super accommodating to diet restrictions.“

“Made a sudden decision to stop and grab a beer after visiting some of the gorgeous waterfalls in the area. Could have stayed longer since this place has a great selection of beers. Even better is the small taco restaurant - Gordingo’s, that is housed within the brewery. Plenty of pace inside and out to sit down and enjoy life.“

“Had a great time stopping in for breakfast. If your not sure where to go, once I side just walk to the back and grab a table inside or on the back porch. It's very laid back. The biscuits and gravy were perfect and the atmosphere by the river relaxing. The general store on the way in is worth a look before hitting the road.“

“A nice brewery with a good Munich dunkel. The main seating area is what you might expect from a microbrewery. The rear patio seating however is in an alley in reminded me more of an employee break area. I mention this because we brought our dog and that's where dogs are supposed to sit unless they are service animals and the area needs to be improved to truly be a customer patio seating area. That outdoor seating area in back left me a little disappointed.“

“Wish you had more of your own beers, but I understand the work involved with that. Had your Chai Amber at White Squirrel Market.. delicious! As for the taproom.. when there are people at the bar, get rid of the chair for bartenders to sit in, there are plenty of people to talk to at the bar, have them up and moving. As a former Taproom Manager, it doesn’t look good, also, part of what draws people in are the people behind the bar, have them engage. Love the beer, space is cool.“
