42 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Waynesville

“Looking forward to future open mics/performance with Papi Kodak live!“

“I am recently gluten free and have had an awful time trying to find food I can eat. Cam was my server and was SO patient with me and my requests. She is so sweet & compassionate! I will definitely be coming back because of her great service! 🫶🏼“

“My favorite family friendly place. Bock excels at creating a space where we gather as family, friends, soccer teams, etc with their large open room, but also there's a game room my kids love, foosball, and shuffle board. And that's not even getting to the food and drinks. My favorite snacks include the German nachos, reuben dip, and pretzels. The drinks are always on point- fresh and delicious. we always love the lemon blueberry with with a slice of lemon and the Negligent IPA. They are staffed by some of the greatest people. A family favorite for sure.“

“The crab Rangoon is #1 anywhere in Dayton. Fish Fry through Lent is IMPECCABLE. Cooked to PERFECTION. A HUGE KUDOS to Blake the Fish King!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“Coming to Hole N One has become a little weekly thing of ours for me and my family. My girls love the sprinkle donuts and I loveee the raspberry jelly ones. Literally can’t get enough! Lots of options as well, and very clean.“

“I loved this place. Its a nice, cozy, and comfy coffee chop. It was my first time visiting but I felt like I knew the baristas since forever. They have a variety of pastries and drinks. There is a grab and go fridge. The food was fresh and delectble. Frindly and kind staff who made me feel welcomed.“

“K Pot has a wide variety of ingredients and their broth was really delicious. I am vegetarian, and I was able to find a lot of great options. Isbela was our server and she was very helpful in helping me find vegetarian options and provided great service :)“

“Me and my weekly lunch bunch of 6 ladies have this place in our regular rotation. The clam chowder is perfection with tender, not chewy, clams. Paired it with Boom Boom shrimp for the tastiest lunch. Just sorry it took me so long to try this place.“

“5 Stars is not enough. Hubby and I stopped in for our first visit and he grew up Italian ~ homemade everything. Sub was filled with meats, mozzarella sticks were perfect and the pizza was awesome. The dough is fabulous, so much taste. Husband felt like he was back home. Cannoli was so tasty. We will definitely be back. Great food, priced fairly and the owners service exceeded our expectations! Thank you for a great meal!!!“

“Some friends and I went there for the first time today. The entire staff was so welcoming and kind. I would highly recommend it to everyone! Thank you 🩷“

“Q was very attentive and made sure we always had a drink. 🥃“

“Stopped in after a Reds game to get dinner with my wife on our way back to the KOA Campground nearby. Clare had our table and was a great server! Frequent visits to the table, very cheerful, and served us a fantastic steak sandwich. Draft beer was cold and clean taste. And they have Keno. My kind of place, I will be back the next time I’m in the area 😁“

“My son and I had a great meal here today. The pork tenderloin and wings were some of the best either of us can remember having ever. We can't wait to go back and try some more creations off that menu. Son's a massive wing fan and we go to different restraunts just for that reason and he said these are now his absolute FAVORITE he has ever had.“

“Had a great lunch at Hidden Valley Orchards yesterday, and the highlight was definitely topping it off with one of their amazing apple caramel ice cream sundaes 🍎🍦. Perfect fall vibes, great company, and a sweet treat that hit the spot! If you haven’t been, it’s definitely worth the trip. #HiddenValleyOrchards #FallFlavors #SupportLocal“

“The people that are running the place are so sweet and accomodating! The drinks were delicious! There are so many choices to choose from. The lady who took my order told me that if I didn’t like the drinks that I ordered she could remake something else I might would like instead as they are new and still trying to get the measurements right with the recipes but there was no need, they were so good! Highly recommend, you won’t be disappointed! 🫶🏼“

“I’m obsessed with this place! I personally do not like sushi but after I got the hibachi for the first time I have had to order it over and over and over! Also my daughter and I dined in and it was just us at the grill but it was still a fun time!“

“You place your order at the counter and the sandwiches come with a small side. They serve what has to be the best Reuben Sandwich in town. It was full of meat and kraut but not sloppy. My side was potato salad and it was good but a little small.“

“The wattress was amazing. The wine , food, atmosphere is exceptional. A party of 8 and everyone was extremely happy. Will visit again.“

“Love that they carry TinCap something for us ladies that like something sweet. Amazing food always. Kid and dog friendly. Edit from recent visit during Oktoberfest 2025: I want to give kudos to the Taproom Manager, he was helping out with another lady at the bar. I asked for a couple crowlers and had went to pay and the tablet had an error, so as I waited for the Manager to finish...some guy comes up to be and tries to act like I skipped the line (which clearly I hadn't as the lady at the bar was helping people faster, as I waited for the guy to finish). It was a ridiculous altercation with a grown man, and the Manager went to bat for me. I appreciate that, and hope that gentleman who felt he needed to be a bully doesn't come back.“

“Relaxing and the pizza is great“

“I couldn’t give a total 5 stars because anything extra is an additional charge. I mean anything! A side of ranch is extra a side of buffalo sauce extra and so on. I ordered a white wine sangria which was actually only a white wine with a slice of orange and a slice of lime. I asked the server if I could get a couple of cherries and a splash of pineapple juice to make it actually a sangria and they charged me a dollar for it!!..same thing when I ordered a second one. My 15.00 chicken sandwich platter after adding a few extras..( cheese,bacon and buffalo sauce ) ended up costing a whopping $23.00. I never knew everything or anything that does not come with your meal is extra until I received the bill. FYI ala carte is a killer here.“

“Just two weeks ago, I wrote a glowing review for The Chop House, and here I am again—because they’re just that good! When I asked my wife what she was hungry for, she immediately said, "The Chop House," and once again, they did not disappoint. The food was absolutely amazing. I had the prime rib with burgundy mushrooms, served with real horseradish that reminded me of how my mom used to make it—simply perfection. The rice pilaf and Caesar salad were spot-on, with the salad served at just the right temperature. For dessert, we indulged in the Hershey chocolate cake with homemade ice cream and caramel syrup. Every bite was heavenly. Our waitress Brittany, was both professional and charming, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. The service, food, and atmosphere were all top-notch, just as we’ve come to expect from The Chop House. If you’re looking for a place to enjoy an exceptional meal, this is it. I’ll be adding some photos to this review because words alone don’t do it justice. Highly recommend!“

“Everything was so yummy! Best crust I’ve had in forever! The pizza was so good ! We started with the stuffed mushrooms. The mushrooms did not disappoint! Great wine. The balsamic was great. Service was fantastic! Would definitely come again.“

“Our group of 6 from Hidden Springs Senior Living decided to stop in for lunch. We all agreed that the food was Wonderful and the service was too. Staff was very helpful and friendly 😊 We are already planning our next visit!“

“Just moved here to the area couple years ago I just now started getting out and seeing new things in Lebanon and one of the things I've liked is a little bar called Kings bar on Mulberry Street the people that are and there are friendly it's a little bit of mixture of everybody I've only been in there a few times so far and everybody already starts to know my name to put it up on the chalkboard to play pool a nice little drama-free place“

“Victor’s Taco shop is by far the best “fast food casual” Tex-Mex menu around! We love going and getting the breakfast burrito; awesome tasting and so price competitive!! It’s a two-meal breakfast. Highly recommend, you getting the best Tex-Mex food available in Dayton.“

“A wonderful site for a night out around a wonderful meal. A quiet and peaceful setting. I know it's known for its streaks, but we both had fish dishes (salmon and cod) and they were excellent.
Shout out to Stephanie...a better server we could not have asked. A thank you for adding much to the experience“

“Atmosphere and staff are always wonderful, I got the chicken tenders with a salad , I can tell you they never disappoint on the quality and quantity I’ve never left there disappointed… For a nice quiet dinner I can’t think of a better relaxing place“

“Great restaurant! Friendly faces and quick service every time. There is plenty of free parking and tables available. Dine in and take out. Delicious food, I love their apple jalapeño sauce, and their Shakes are delicious too. Kids friendly. Love their trains decor! Highly recommended.“

“Each year around Thanksgiving, we celebrate our employees with a company-sponsored breakfast. Despite economic challenges and tariffs negatively impacting our bottom line, we wanted to continue this tradition. This year, we provided a continental-style breakfast featuring Chick-fil-A chicken biscuit sandwiches, fresh fruit, and several additional items from a local warehouse store. Chick-fil-A delivered our food promptly, complete with all necessary utensils and serving supplies. A special thank-you to William, our delivery driver, who was exceptionally patient and kind. When I asked about signing the receipt and adding a tip, he explained that Chick-fil-A doesn’t process tips—but his excellent service deserves recognition. We want to express our appreciation to the Washington Township Chick-fil-A, operated by Marla Davis, as well as her Centerville (Cornerstone area) location. As a local Centerville resident, I find both restaurants are consistently efficient, and their employees are always friendly and professional. We highly recommend Marla Davis’s Chick-fil-A locations for any catering needs or any Chic-fil-A craving.“

“Been eating there since they opened the first location! Can't wait for the Huber Heights location!“

“Just enjoyed Christmas outing with friends here. Was brewery hopping today, we are from Cincinnati and wanted to try some breweries up north. Absolutely LOVED this place! We consider ourselves brewery connoisseurs and can’t say enough about this place. Atmosphere was cozy and inviting, staff was so friendly and helpful, food was amazing and the beer was even better. If this place was near us I am sure it would be “our spot”“

“Best wings I've ever had! 10/10!“

“The PB Swizzle bowl is soooo good!“

“Fast, friendly service. Food was great!“

“The original on Brown St. was church but I still stop in a couple times a year for nostalgia, not to mention the sweet patio.
The bar had a duo playing so win-win.
Scott n Dana blew it out of the park, book them again please cause we'll be back.
The bartender was friendly and on it service wise but nor over bearing. Manager was friendly without being cheesy as well.
I've never had their pizza let alone a cauliflower crust-Holy Baboli, we LOVED IT!
It beats out every one I've tried with my gluten free 🥱 friend 😆
I ordered a half sub with Milanos potatos. Gotta get a side of homemade chip dip for dipping every time cause I'm addicted“

“Great portion size. Food is hot and delicious. Customer service is top-notch. Lunch special is very affordable. Overall great experience.“

“Love the Hot Sexy Roll and BYOB rocks on $$$ savings!“

“I wish that we could clone the workers here for all the other locations! This crew is sweet, quick, always positive and will having you driving away with a smile on your face. AND they are now open even earlier. Huge shout out to the early morning crew for always going above and beyond ❤️“

“First time trying the pizza. We ordered the New York style stuffed pizza. Overall not bad however it was a bit dry for my liking. I think if they added a garlic butter lightly brushed over it once it’s done it would be perfect. Other than that it was pretty good. Smells amazing. Could maybe even stuff the crust with cheese. Again thoughts. But overall I was quoted 35 minutes and I arrived about 10 minutes early and it was coming out of the oven. The staff were very sweet and polite. I’ll try a different style next time. I may not be a fan of the double crust. It was good don’t get me wrong. I just think it was a tad dry. Flavor was great!“

“Hate the new fries. Everything else was great. Bit of a leaky roof in the heavy rain was disconcerting in a restaurant. Staff was very friendly. Don’t eat LJS often (locations at home aren’t convenient) but had a craving and this location was near the service appointment for my car“
