Dog Friendly Restaurants Woodfin

“We love this brewery! The beer is delicious, as is the food. The wide open space next to river is inviting for people and dogs of all ages. We always enjoy spending an afternoon there!“

“Great beers! Love the spot to. Super chill“

“Their sandwiches are masterpieces!“

“Wow, so good! All of the arepas were delicious. We also had the fries plantains and the flan; both amazing. Lots of gluten free options! The patio area is pretty small, but everyone who came was able to find seating. Many people were taking their orders to go.“

“We were highly impressed with our first visit to Tall John’s! We had the Bravette Steak and Duck, both cooked to perfection! The cocktails were equally unique and tasty! Cool Vibes & yummy food! Oh, and we both have a gluten issue and were accommodated easily! We will be back ❤️“

“Every single interaction we had at Limones was sincere, intentional, and well executed. We were greeted and given a place to wait in the lobby with an herbal seltzer. Our server Jamie was extremely knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and gave eloquent, robust descriptions of the food as well as his recommendations we requested. We shared the lardo pizza - you should too. This is cellophane thin pork fat rendered just so to melt into incredible cheese and oven fired crust. I would go back for more this second. Every part of our meal exuded that impeccable attention to detail. A ravioli type pasta with ham cornbread and peas was the perfect Appalachian/Italian pairing. The tiramisu was thick, custardy, eggy in the lightest but creamiest way. The pistachio gelato with pistachio syrup was incredible. My only wish would’ve been to try one more dessert but we did make a 9:30 reservation so you roll the dice. That panna cotta sounded wonderful. I could not imagine anyone being less than thoroughly impressed with Limones. My husband was a chef for 20+ years and felt every aspect of a great meal was part of our meal there. 10/10 Limones.“

“On Saturday, February 14th, I went downtown for a solo dinner at Huli Sue’s and quickly realized I had completely forgotten Billy Strings was in town for the weekend. Between Valentine’s Day and a sold-out show within walking distance, downtown was absolute chaos. Walking into Huli Sue’s, though, felt like stepping into a well-oiled machine. The hostess (I truly wish I had gotten her name) greeted everyone calmly and kept the flow of guests organized and welcoming. They were operating on a reservation system for the evening honestly genius given the circumstances. Even as a party of one, the wait was about an hour and a half, which I completely understood. Knowing I was craving their food, she suggested takeout. She even let me sit at the table where they roll silverware so I could look over the menu and wait for my roommate to text their order and never once made me feel rushed. While I waited, I watched her run the entrance like an absolute goddess. She was pleasant, efficient, and incredibly organized. Every table being notified was already set, down to water poured and ready. When guests arrived, she greeted them with genuine enthusiasm and walked them to their tables like they were honored guests. Downtown was a madhouse. People kept walking in without reservations, and she calmly explained the wait. When guests were understandably discouraged, she let them know they were accepting reservations for the 15th and I honestly didn’t hear a single person turn her down. She made everyone feel welcome. Despite the cold and the madness outside, the restaurant remained calm and peaceful inside. Even at full capacity, the volume stayed comfortable. The kitchen ran like an orchestra no yelling, no chaos, no stressed staff just teamwork and smiles. I wanted to take a moment to praise Huli Sue’s, their staff, and their phenomenal hostess. They handled what could have been an overwhelming night with grace and efficiency. They already had my business —but after that experience, I’ll make it a point to go even more often.“

“Food was absolutely delicious. Cheese plate a vegan cheese lovers dream. Amazing service by Vic! She paid close mind to the nut allergy at our table and was very attentive and kind. Highly recommend for vegans and non vegans alike! Save room for dessert!!!“

“Best doughnuts I’ve ever had. Kind of tastes like it has a croissant outer crust. I am so grateful I don’t live next to here.“

“Our lunch today was outstanding! Amazing flavors and three of us shared 4 items. Hunter was so accommodating and nice today, we will be back!“

“Fantastic meal last night at Jargon! The ginger carrot 🥕 soup was incredible. We paired it with Asparagus and risotto. The strawberry dessert was amazing and the after dinner drinks with espresso beans were perfection.“

“I first learned about Bad Manners Coffee from their Instagram page and general social media presence. When I saw the sign as I drove through WAVL I was so excited I had to drop in to finally check it out. I tried a classic iced latte with house-made strawberry syrup added and a jalapeño bagel. The latte was the perfect amount of sweet without being cloying and the bagel was warm, buttery, flaky, and had the absolute barest hint of spice. I love spice so would have enjoyed a little more but it’s mild enough that you could give it to a slightly adventurous child and they would excitedly tell you “I ate something spicy” and you could smile knowingly.
I sat out on their small one-table patio to eat my breakfast and drink my coffee. I’m happy they have it as an option but I will say it felt slightly precarious as the deck slopes downward and there is a gap between the concrete slab at the door and the wood of the patio flooring. Elderly and disabled folks should avoid this area due to the uneven footing and safety concerns but the interior is accessible and has tables.
They put up billowing and gauzy curtains and artificial plant wall coverings over lattice work to evoke a sense of privacy between the surrounding businesses and the perpetual construction happening behind the building.
The music that played seemed to be a calm and ambient mixture of Phoebe Bridgers, Mitski, and other female singer-songwriters of similar genres. The aesthetics of the interior are bright and artsy with pink walls and leafy green plant life and create a comfortably welcoming atmosphere.
Bad Manners Coffee also seems to partner with some local artists as there were cards/mini-prints and stickers available for sale with individual payment options via Venmo available. We love a local business that supports local artists!

The two baristas I encountered were warm, professional, kind, and helpful. They gave recommendations on drinks and food to myself and all following customers without being pushy or sounding like they were performing from a script. Both ladies also had exceptionally lovely smiles and hairstyles!!

I had a wonderful visit and I will be back time and again now that I know this little corner of peace exists.“

“A large group of us went and shared a bunch of plates, every single item on the menu was incredibly flavorful. It was hard for us to make up our minds on what was our favorite. Also, lots of good options for vegetarians. The atmosphere is beautiful and fun as well. I wish we had one in Greenville, but we will be back when we’re in Asheville!“

“Went on the recommendation of a friend that wanted me to try their 'Crab Rangoon' sour. Was not disappointed. Not usually a sour person but really enjoyed it and it seems like they have plenty of other options that are equally as adventurous.“

“Love this local brewery! Definitely a fav of mine in Asheville.“

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

“My friends and I ate here during our visit to Asheville in August 2024 and I can’t stop thinking about it. It was so good! I cannot wait to have another opportunity to go back“

“Yum! Great pizza! Wonderful, friendly staff.“

“They have a lot of vegan options! The environment is beautiful too with lots of plants ❤️“

“Cool little place! Split one of the vanilla sandwiches because it was so big! The ice cream was great and the cookies were soft and delicious! Friendly staff as well. Will be back from TN!“

“The Hot Chocolate Freeze was delicious!“

“We have lived in Asheville for about 15 years and have been eating Suzy’s food since there was only a food truck. It’s nourishing, delicious, and always filling, not to mention very fairly priced! The ownership and staff are amazing and have always been welcoming to myself and all of my diverse groups of friends and family. We love Gypsy Queen!“

“We live just north of the village and come here often. Love Yellow Mug! Order at the counter, find a table indoors or out, they will find you when your food is ready. Terrific fresh-ground coffee, creative breakfasts, sandwiches, salads (I love The One with Quinoa and Butternut Squash—yes, that is its name). Very fresh food, veg/vegan and GF options, beer and wine, excellent wifi….one of our favorite places!!!“

“Five Points is on point! Bathrooms were nice and clean, staff was polite and attentive, & the food was really tasty, with generous portions! I highly recommend if you’re in the Montfort area of Asheville that you bring your appetite and enjoy a meal here. Will definitely be back for more! 🍽️ 😋“

“I make my own ginger ale and this has made mine tasting like trash. The tulsi tea was exceptional as well. This has definitely been the most enjoyable ginger beer I have had.“

“Today for lunch they had a salmon over pasta noodles special which was one of the best Salmon dishes I have ever had…If anyone from management reads this, please put this dish on the regular menu. Fantastic!!“

“Joe was fantastic and so was the cider. Definitely will be back!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

New Belgium Brewing is a great place to spend a Sunday afternoon in Asheville. There is plenty of space to spread out, whether you’re visiting with family, friends, as a couple, or even bringing the dog along. The outdoor areas are perfect for relaxing, and the views from the balcony overlooking the French Broad River are beautiful. The river was especially high and muddy during our visit after recent rain, which made for an interesting view.

Inside, the brewery is spacious, clean, and welcoming, with large seating areas, beautiful architecture, and roomy restrooms. The atmosphere is laid-back and family-friendly, making it an excellent spot for large groups or a casual afternoon together.

If you’re looking for a place to enjoy great scenery, plenty of room to unwind, and a fun social atmosphere, New Belgium Brewing is definitely worth a visit.“

“awesome place! great food ! good service! go and be happy! :)“

“Always a great stop. The food is awesome plus the beer. We have been here and never disappointed“

“We highly recommend Posana for celebrating special occasions. We were there for our 27th wedding anniversary and they gave us many nice touches -- glasses of champagne, a signed card from the staff, a small starter and small dessert -- that made the dining feel even more special. Our server was wonderful and all the staff were kind and attentive. Scrumptious food and gorgeous presentation.“

“I love everything about Nine Mile and I’ll die on that hill. They are amazing, professional and super kind people. The food- always amazing. The beer- so so good! The salad dressings the hot sauce! So good!“

“I’ve eaten here 2 times in the last 2 months. The food is delicious , the service has been excellent and the atmosphere is so nice . I’ve enjoyed eating on their patio . I know I’ll be returning .“

“Great vibe, music, bartenders, and beer!“

“My wife and I happened upon this magical gem tonight. We had spent the day in Asheville and were actually looking for a Mexican restaurant. My wife saw this and said that we hadn't had BBQ in a good while. So, we changed our plans. We walked in and noticed the awards on the walls and the Pride shirt. Every minute inside was amazing! The front of the house staff were all so friendly. The food was absolutely wonderful! When one of the ladies that works the dining room came to the table, she was warm, sweet, and spunky! We cannot thank you enough for such an amazing experience! We will definitely be returning and bringing our kids next time! 🤟🏻❤️ Thank you Punky Brewster! 😉“

“This place was great! The burger and fries were delicious. The atmosphere was laid back and comfortable. We also had great service on what seemed to be a pretty busy night.“

“We are from out of town and love to try the local favorites. The food was fresh and delicious. The restaurant was unique and the service was friendly.“

“Amazing, chill venue that consistently hosts great music. I love the intimacy of the space, because it's not a massive venue. Can't tell you how many great shows I've spontaneously stopped by to see over the years. 10/10 recommend. Also, kudos to the barkeep for carrying drink-able white wine for us non-beer, non-liquor drinkers.“

“fantastic cocktails and really fun atmosphere.Sit and the bar and choose your own super fun cup! Mocktails are delicious for those who don't want alcohol. overall vibe is outstanding and service is top notch! you seriously need to come here!!!“

“The atmosphere and drinks were amazing! However we arrived around 5 o’clock and were told no coffee after 4pm - but they had coffee for cocktails. It was upsetting for our designated driver who was looking forward to enjoying a coffee while we had cocktails. Hoping this rule will change so we can enjoy a responsible night out in the future!“

“amazing coffee served in a super cozy and welcoming environment by a great staff. the owner chuck is the life of the party 🎉“

“One of our favorite places!“

“I recently went to Asheville and tried several places. Rockys hit it out of the park. I tried Rockys hot and was warned about it before hand. it was hot but just right for me. it is a party in your mouth. so much flavor. just delicious. service was friendly,fast and amazing..top notch and now I'm sad I can't get it in Indiana where I live..“

“I requested a 2 night stay in my Harvest Host / Boondockers app. I got a quick approval in mins. The brewery was easy to get to, had lots of parking & there was a small local band playing when I arrived. Sky was my very friendly bartender. I asked for a beer suggestion than was on the lighter side. He suggested the Cowboy Poet. He was spot on. I also ordered food from the pizza place. Was really delicious. I got to see Sky on my second night also. I would definitely revisit. The information & description of what to expect were exact. Thank you for sharing your business with the camping community.“

“Great food, service, & beer selection! The fried pepperoni & cheese curds were delicious. My wife liked the firecracker shrimp Alfredo, but said it had some spice. The Greek platter was amazing as well. I got the combination to try both the lamb & chicken. The chicken tasted like souvlaki & was good, but I favored the lamb. I typically would order an old fashioned, but they did not have large blocks of ice. Given what Helene’s impact on western NC, I was happy to see this restaurant thriving & folks in good spirit. This place is a gem for the community, and I highly recommend.“

“The bartender was friendly and warm. All the mix drinks were delicious and perfectly made.“

“I had a BLACKBERRY MOCHA yesterday. In all my long years I have NEVER, EVER, EVER enjoyed a beverage nearly as much. It was beyond Devine.“

“We passed by Wagbar on our way to our Airbnb and just knew we had to visit. So many happy dogs playing, my dog was anxious to join everytime we passed by. I love that they take being up to date on vaccines serious. We were greeted by what I called the "Welcome committee" consisting of 3 huge golden retrievers. Got inside, ordered a few drinks and set Stash free. He was right away accepted into the group of dogs playing and shown around. Not only were all the dogs friendly and very social, but their owners were as well. Great conversations were had. Absolutely recommend this place. The employee working that day(can't remember her name) was amazing with the dogs. She took notice anytime the dogs were "bored". She would come out and entice them to play around. Hilarious seeing the regulars reaction to her approach because they KNEW what was up haha! Can't wait to visit again when we are in town.“

“I’m blessed to live within walking distance of this gem. If you appreciate a variety of well made beers that may entice you to try something different. Located on Haywood Rd. Across from The Odd, sit outside and enjoy your beer on another Glorious Day in Asheville. Share & Enjoy.🙏🍺🇺🇸“
