50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Upper Arlington

“Visited the new, shared space for Colin's Coffee. I ordered the Buckeye Madness. Drink was quickly prepared and tasted great. There is more seating at Daily Growler then the former location. The new location lacks some charm from the previous location.“

“Small local coffee shop. You place your order, grab your beverage, and then take a seat. We enjoyed our food and experience, but personally prefer a little more elbow room. I recommend this place if you are a group of two or less just due to size of space. There isn't a ton of seating, maybe 10 two seat tables. Once the seats are taken, you have to wait for availability. The coffee is great! It was self-serve with the option or half and half or oat milk in their fridge. Orange juice is available, and it tasted fresh squeezed! The food was really tasty! We ordered the breakfast tacos, the greek omelet with cinnamon raisin toast, and split the hashbrowns.“

“The food here is amazing, I wish they would bring back the fried cauliflower because that meal was always great. I've been a few times and everyone seems to love the fried chicken, I cannot get enough of their broccoli which I know sounds odd but they put a flavorful sauce on it. Their biscuits are great and the potato cracklins are nice and crispVegetarian options: They now have a quinoa bowl that is delicious and they have some vegetarian sides and appetizers, be aware though alot of the fried foods are cooked in the same oil as the chicken“

“If you are a FOODIE and have been wanting Birria tacos, you have to come here! I drove two hours to get these tacos because I've been wanting Birria bad and they were worth the drive. Crispy shell, rich beef flavor, fresh onions and cilantro and the consomme is on point. Every bite was tasty, not bland like other places in Ohio, you can actually taste the spices. This is Authentic Tijauana style red Birria tacos like you see with food bloggers on IG. The staff was super friendly. The best days to go are Thurs-Sat when the Birria is available all day. Get there early because they sell out fast.“

“I have returned from my hiatus to speak on behalf of parable (again). Pastries just wake me up like nothing else. I say that but every time I try to get to parable "early" (i.e., before 10am), I fail to do so ;'( But it's ok! These days there are still goodie pastries available for the sleepy birbs (hurrah) Unfortunately, my gastrointestinal system did not hunger at that hour of the morn, so the spinach artichoke danish was a bit of an underwhelming experience, even though the danish was freshly toasted ;'( I liked the chip though (cronch). Otherwise, it kind of gave artichoke dip but served in a pastry vessel instead of a plastic container. I enjoyed the honey grapefruit brûlée circle croissant and guava cream cheese pastelito more. Neither were too sweet and both had nice crispity crunchities! Service was very thoughtful as well! Whenever staff brought pastries to someone's table, they'd always ask if the person would like a fork and would then go run and grab one. I personally prefer to go feral on my food with my fingers but the gesture seemed very kind. Also, I'm pretty sure the entire album of The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess was played. We stan queer icons“

“This is the best restaurant ever everyone’s so nice and the foods amazingVegetarian options: There’s a lot of good vegan foodDietary restrictions: I love itParking: It’s amazingKid-friendliness: AmazingWheelchair accessibility: It’s great“

“We’ve been going to Isa for a while, so when we started planning our wedding, she was honestly our first and only choice. Yes, her pastries are out of this world and I could wax poetic on them - specifically the sweet potato one, look if you know you know - but this review is for the absolute masterpiece of a wedding cake that she put together for us. Because we’re long standing customers, we actually ended up doing both the spring/summer and the fall/winter tasting boxes. There is no wrong answer here, every single cake she makes is delicious, but we ended up going with the pretty traditional almond raspberry with the raspberry jam. It’s sweet, it’s decadent, and it was a huge hit with our guests. And god, just look at it! So beautiful! 100% worth it, choose Isa and Three Bites for all your pastry and cake needs!“

“As someone who really loves bagels. This place didn’t fall short. What I can appreciate is they don’t try to do too much. Everything I had(vegetarian lox, everything with chive and salt and herb with matcha and honey) was done expertly and nothing fell short. Upon the first bite it was clear why this is on the “best bagels outside of NY list”, because if it was in NYC, it would be on the “best bagels in NYC list”.Thanks for a great bagel!“

“I had an amazing 10/10 experience at this Swensons because of Caden! What an amazing server he was. I didn’t know much about the menu so he was very helpful. Caden was very kind, helpful, and patient while taking my order. I will defiantly be coming back and ordering more! Thank you Caden and Swenson!“

“We went on a tour here to learn about how they make their spirits. The tour was great, and our guide Maggie was very informative while being casual and easy to talk to. I would love to go back and meet their spirit master Adam. Prices are average compared to other places in Columbus. Vodka and gin are very affordable without tasting cheap. Only negative is there isn’t much parking. Overall I am more than satisfied with my experience here. Can’t wait for the bourbon to be released!!“

“We came on an extremely busy night (St. Patrick’s Day weekend and during Ramadan) and the place was packed. We had a large group of 7 and the chef and staff went out of their way to get us seated, pushing tables together and checking on us multiple times to make sure we were comfortable. They all had smiles on their faces and were genuinely helpful. The food came out SO quickly, we barely had to wait. Everyone’s meals were delicious, and the hummus was divine. ? Highly recommend!“

“This is a real gem of a restaurant! The vegan cuisine is spectacular, the staff knowledgeable and friendly and the gracious owner, Portia, is welcoming and involved. Columbus is lucky to have Portia at the helm of this wonderful, plant forward restaurant!“

“A big fat meaty juicy sammich that comes with a hefty price. 2 people can easily share it so that makes it a bit easier to swallow. We ordered from a window and then sat in the nearby outdoor tables to enjoy the morning sun and it was a really nice vibe.“

“The food here is fantastic! It's homemade and served quickly. We've tried appetizers, entrees, and desserts, and everything is delicious. While my favorite is the grape leaves, you can't go wrong with a gyro or a piece of baklava. This family-owned restaurant is definitely a favorite spot!“

“I've driven by this food truck for a year or more and never stopped... until today. Wow! This is the best Mexican food I've ever eaten. Like EVER. Now I have to find some self restraint moving forward because I could easily spend a ton of money I don't have eating from this place.“

“5 stars for everything! I started going here a few months ago and not only are the shakes and teas delicious, but the staff is friendly and helpful! The mega teas make me feel energized and I no longer rely on the energy drinks for my longer work days. I’ve tried several flavors and the banana nut bread shake takes the cake (so far). I go here every Wednesday and will continue to do so! :)“

“This is the 3rd time I've been to RingSide and I love it! The food is always amazingly delicious. The service is great. The staff is super personable, polite, and fun. The am since is fantastic as well. I highly recommend this place to everyone.“

“A great concept! A brewery merged with multiple food options. No more..."I don't want XYZ"...pick what you want! Can't wait to visit again when it's nicer out to enjoy the outside patio.Parking: I'm sure on a BUSY time it could be tricky to get a spot, but seems like plenty to go around.Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of parking nearby. Bathroom is very wheelchair accessible. (I always check these things for my friend who's in a chair)“

“We rented the party room for my brother’s 50th birthday party. I highly recommend Flint Station party room! The decor was amazing. There was a ton of space and lots of things to do. The bartenders were friendly and the drinks were great! Worth every penny!“

“We chose to hire Seventh Son's sunroom for our wedding. Best decision ever. Monica was a delight to work with and everything was so relaxed and easy from day one. Our wedding day was perfect. The space looked amazing, the drinks were fabulous and the bar staff were simply outstanding.Highly recommend this place for events, or even just a great, chilled location for a beer if you're in the area.“

“The people there are so nice, the food is good, and the atmosphere is cool and relaxed. The woman who took our order was so helpful and energetic we thought she was the owner - come to find out they just have great staff! Will definitely be coming back!“

“I have passed multiple times and had the time today to stop in. It was everything a neighborhood coffee shop should be: great aroma of coffee and food, wifi, eclectic mix of tables/bar stools/pamphlets, and a super friendly barista! The house blend was really great and excellent taste. Will be back - with a few friends!! “

“Our Non-Profit organization held a fundraiser and reception for a visiting author. We chose Mozart's due to our years long appreciation of the food and service. Anand worked with our group to provide a wonderful atmosphere for our event. The staff were attentive and very professional in their assistance. The food was delicous and enjoyed by all the attendees. It was the perfect place and we had a wonderful time.“

“Great atmosphere! Bartenders are friendly, and the owner, Jason, is super cool and down to earth. I like the Starseed Hazy IPA a lot, but also love that they have Frostop Root Beer on tap when I don’t want alcohol. Overall, very impressed with this place.“

“Service was quick and servers were friendly. Open space outside to eat and comfy area inside to eat. Very vibrant. The burger was moist and the fries were crispy and tasty. I did take out and was handed container without a bag not certain if that is the normal there. I would definitely eat there again“

“Very cute coffee shop located in Old Hilliard. The location is right on the Main Street, which allows you to walk around to some great shops, parks, and other restaurants. However if you want to stay, there is plenty of seating downstairs, upstairs, and outside. The counter is located at the back of the shop, and right next to that is the door that leads outside. You can also purchase items from local people. Parking is free on the street and there are plenty of free parking lots in the area.“

“Oh my goodness!!Handel's was such a treat to stumble upon while in town for a visit.Tried a sunday and a 4 way sampler and there wasn't one I didn't love. You can tell this ice cream is homemade and isn't just thrown together. It's been around for decades and you can tell in the quality and taste!“

“Jaco's in downtown Columbus is an absolute gem! From the moment you step in, you're greeted with a warm atmosphere and friendly staff. The food is simple and good, bursting with flavor and made with the freshest ingredients. Whether you're craving a hearty meal or just looking for a place to unwind with a tasty beverage, Jaco's is the perfect spot to indulge in culinary bliss.“

“Attention Vegans and non-Vegans! Try this place! You will not be disappointed. Just because you are not vegan doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try. Fresh, fast and great flavors. I was blown away by this spot. Just wish it was closer to my house!Vegetarian options: All Vegan! But non vegans will enjoy?“

“This restaurant humiliated my childs father, and screamed at him in front of customers for having a holstered firearm - There were NO signs saying no firearms. We have 3 small children and that is how we defend ourselves. If you're scared of guns, get a gun free zone sign instead of being pathetic! I will be reaching out to the BBB! Looking us in the face and asking what we are scared of, and why we are "scaring your customers" when you are terrified yourself of nothing. Grow up.“

“This is a cute little shop where all the products in there are local small business owners. All kinds of treats, toys, and goodies for your fur baby. Their cakes are so cute and inexpensive. You can order in advance or they have some selections on hand. I've been there twice and found what I needed both times. Friendly staff also.“

“i've been driving 2 hours with my mom from oxford to this bakery for so long it's always been something i look forward too. a few years ago i moved to texas and i have been missing it so much most especially their strata. the staff is always kind and helpful. the shop is beautiful and the food is delicious.“

“We’ve come to Global Gallery for a long time and have even played music here. (I have a band with my husband) but this time when we stopped we were so delighted with the 6oz cappuccino from Joe. He knew just how to make it in the traditional way that is sometimes unusual for a lot of coffee shops.It’s nice to see a good place continue grow and enjoy the growth of the quality of drinks too. So yummy! We will definitely go again when we’re even remotely nearby.I’ve also always loved the large outdoor seating area and cozy inside dining space full of eclectic art on display and for sale. Such a great local shop!“

“This place is so cute! There's typically a crowd from the business above that comes in at 9am but the baristas are quick! And they don't sacrifice flavor in their espresso or coffees for how quick they are!! I highly recommend their iced lattes with oat milk. If you are celiac or gluten free like me they have a couple of options like kind bars, gf oatmeal cups, and this protein bar (my personal fav)! Their bagels and muffins look great too! Love the atmosphere and definitely a must-go place if you're looking for a great cup of coffee in Columbus!“

“Enormous tap selection! I hope they turn all these over and the beer is fresh. I called down to the brewery to make sure my pool party was fresh and it was. Pool party is the best pills are in town. Bar none. Thick girl working the bar is about as cute as it gets too. “

“Atmosphere is very laid back. I came here looking for Blackbird Kitchen, thinking it was a restaurant, and was surprised to find that it’s the name of the food sold in the bar. So Blackbird Kitchen is not its own separate restaurant. You order food at the bar and they bring it to your table. Service was quick and the food was good overall. Parking was a bit confusing. Do not park in the parking lot before 6:30pm! You will need to find street parking, which was not hard. Outdoor seating area. They have live bands.Parking: Don’t park in the parking lot before 6:30pm. Free street parking down the side streets.“

“Winston's Coffee and Waffles has outstanding customer service and a deliciously unique take on your favorite breakfast foods.I ordered The Baron which is an egg and cheese breakfast sandwich served between two warm, fluffy and slightly sweet waffles. Their lattes are also very good, they have a list of seasonal flavors/drinks, and their barista will happily alter your drink if it doesn’t taste just right.If you go and really enjoy it, I recommend getting one of their punch cards to work towards getting yourself a free gift card.“

“Great atmosphere! My work rented out the back room. Perk is that you can bring your own food. Nice big TV to watch games. They even have a heated patio area. Drinks were very good and decently priced. Highly recommend the warm cider with a shot!“

“Read the reviews before choosing this spot to fix my son’s bike, and they told the truth! Brake lines took 10 minutes to fix, and we were not charged because of a technical difficulty on their end - fantastic customer service! The bill would have been WAY less than we anticipated anyway. Great service, great work, and a joy to to business with. We will be coming back!“

“I am no coffee connoisseur. I couldn’t tell the difference between a drip coffee and a pour over if my life depended on it. From what I hear from the community, TWCH has amazing coffee. I go for lattes and cappuccinos and the fresh local baked goods supplied by Slice of Heaven Bakery. Now they’ve got a taco truck on site, which is the icing on the cake for us. The best part about TWCH is *The Vibes*. It is an awesome place to get together to have a meeting with someone. You can sit outside or in, as they have picnic benches and tables outside. On the weekends, you can catch local neighbors hanging out and chatting. It’s the perfect place to meet locals. And TWCH supports local businesses and local community non profits. Their commitment to the local community makes them extra special. This symbiosis puts them a cut above anyone else, in my opinion. I’m glad they’re in my neighborhood. It’s safe and inviting and I love it. The murals are the best!!Kid-friendliness: I never feel weird bringing my young toddler in there. He loves jumping off the curbs and playing outside we the picnic benches. Traffic is never so bad that I’m concerned about his safety and the parking lot is separated really well from where he likes to play.“

“Great little spot for soft serve and Italian ice. We got the chocolate and vanilla swirl cones for our first visit, but after getting unlimited tasting spoons of their ices, we decided we would get those next time. The mango is amazing! Bright, clean, friendly and relaxed service. My 6yo son is a tough critic of new places, but he loved this place right away. We will be back!“

“*Dog Friendly* Kind of hard to find but what a gem! Staff was extremely friendly, they went out of their way to go over their different drinks and other places to check out. They brought out the dogs a water bowl with ice cubes. The beers were incredible, never had anything like them…. The fact that they are all barrel aged is all that needs to be said. Definitely will be back! Thanks for such a warm welcome to your city/breweryCheers“

“This was our first time going to this establishment. We were a party of 4, with my husband in a wheelchair. We were greeted by CJ, most kind, wonderful individual with a great smile! Our server Sophia was very patient, kind and offered many wonderful food recommendations. Which I might add, we loved everything! If I could suggest one thing if you’re in the area, or just wanting some great tacos, nachos, guacamole, salsa, and chips this is the spot to go to! THANK YOU ALL!!Wheelchair accessibility: The dining area is kind of tight, but what I will say when we arrived there, CJ made every accommodation for my husband in a wheelchair to feel most comfortable.“

“Haberneros has consistently good food, delivered to your table fast and hot. The staff is friendly and prompt with service. The menu is a typical Mexican restaurant selection, but executed well. The pastor is spicy and delicious. Excellent choices for vegetarians. The drink menu is impressive, especially the huge margaritas. Finally, no meal is complete at Haberneros without the fresh made churros!“

“The only time we ate from here was in June 2020. It was during the Covid-19 craziness. We ordered through Door Dash. We had told ourselves we would go eat in. That's what we did today. The atmosphere was AMAZING! So was the food and the service!!!WE WILL BE BACK!“

“Who's mama or grandma is on this truck!!!??? This food is so good, I am talking aloud to myself and dancing. I'm so glad I took this back home to eat first, or things would be embarrassing. I happened to pass by this place when getting gas at the nearby Sheetz on Toy Rd. I purchased the Birria Mulitas and Chicken Tamales, mild- They have just the correct amount of kick that I'm not screaming for relief from water bottle. It was chilly from the previous day snow/rain, and the food truck is located on the corner of a warehouse lot, so the muddy parking lot is not great but they do have covered bench seating, which would probably be better in the spring or fall. Also, I don't like onions but these onions on this mulita are the bomb.“

“I love this place. That being said, there was an odor we noticed that was a bit unpleasant. It was raining that evening so maybe the sewers were having an issue but the smell was not good. I think we adjusted to it because it seemed stronger when we first sat down and then we didn't really notice it after some time passed. The food/drinks were great and I always recommend this place.“

“Ryan Shazier loves this place. Saw him a few weeks ago with some lady (not his wife) and he said it’s a perfect spot for first dates. He was absolutely right! Took my girl there for a first date and ended the night at her place! The vibe is amazing. Shazier recommended I try the Tessera drink andMy oh my, it was paralyzingly good! Wish Shazier would show some loyalty, but it led me to find this gem. Thank you Ryan Shazier!“

“I stopped by Species X on a Tuesday evening after work, mostly due to the Google ratings but also intrigued by the concept/vibe. I ended up being the only one at the brewery which was a blessing in disguise as it allowed me to have about a 2 hour chat with the owner, Bo.I went from my typical skepticism of anything branded AI to fully convinced this was a unique, fun, and ultimately successful approach to brewing beer - not to mention its clear Bo has done his homework and then some.I ended up trying 6 beers and I would honestly say all of them were above average - standouts being the maple blueberry sour and Fluff001.Whether you live in Columbus or are just in time for a short while I'd highly recommend stopping by here to see what Bo and his team are doing as it's truly incredible. While the AI models are fascinating, the decor and vibe are on point, and the staff is very friendly (we covered everything from viral marketing to PC gaming), I firmly believe any brewery is only as good as its beer - and Species X has REALLY good beer!!“

“Their cakes and cupcakes are so moist and flavorful. I had their lavender cake for my birthday a couple years ago and it was my favorite cake I’ve ever had! Their breakfast and coffee are great too. I love getting the iced lavender latte w/ oat milk. Plus everyone is so nice here. I highly recommend!“
