50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Elkins Park

“Very good restaurant. We had the branzino which was nicely done. The baked cheese was good. The menu says baked or fried but they only offer baked (they should change it on the menu). Service was a little slow but it was a comfortable place where you are not rushed. We will go again.“

“Ordered a pizza for takeout. Pizza was not bad coming from a bar. It is a thin crust pizza with the right amount of cheese, soft and flaky. No seasoning on the pizza and the tomato sauce a little sweet. However, it is cooked perfectly with no burnt marks. Noticed they had Miller Light cans for $3.00. The pizza cost $10.00, which is good value.“

“The food was good, excellent customer service. But the portion size was really small, I ordered butter chicken with rice ($17) and it came in these containers…. I was surprised. I think the portion is really small for the price, other than that it’s a great place.

Side note: I had eaten a potion of the butter chicken (both the rice and butter chicken was filled to the top)“

“Great Ice Cream shop. They’re Birthday cake ice cream is legit deliciousness. Espresso xplosion and graham slaps too.“

“I had a great brunch. Loved the atmosphere. Food was excellent. I’ll definitely be back“

“Everything tastes so good, homemade and well-prepared! Go as soon and as often as you can!“

“Not the best barbacoa I’ve had, but still a good one. Reliable tacos with the usual sauces and toppings. You can pay cash at the counter or use your card at the kiosk. Staff is friendly, but you may need to pay closer attention if you order through the kiosk to make sure your order is being prepared. Happy to support Chef Cristina and her cooking!“

“An extensive variety of tapas restaurant with a good selection of wines and outdoor seating area. A focus on fresh, all crafted with the finest authentic ingredients. **Wine Selection**: A curated list of wines which achieve recognition as the "Best Organic Wine List" in North America in 2023. **Ambiance**: A cozy, inviting outdoor patio with comfortable seating, perhaps with Spanish decor and ambient lighting to create a relaxing atmosphere. **Service**: Knowledgeable staff who can provide recommendations on food and wine pairings, and who offer friendly, attentive service.“

“Great food, good service and reasonable prices“

“Both the food and the service are Excellent.“

“Loved dropping in here on a Saturday. Very relaxed vibes walking in here, perfect for a relaxed meet up, coffee or quick bite. My wife and I ordered the Ume Plum Tea, Vietnamese Latte, Khang’s Special Banh Mi, Crispy Tofu Banh Mi, and Doenjang Butter Fries. The Ume Plum Tea is so unique, and their Vietnamese Latte is the best I’ve had. Their food portions are big, and will definitely leave you full. Highly recommend this place!“

“Everyone who was working there was genuinely friendly and the food is amazing. I definitely recommend the wild mushroom toast.“

“Tried Asad’s in Pottstown for the first time today. The slider was great and that Asad’s sauce, wow!!! Whatever you guys are doing keep it up!“

“Came for espresso and sat at the espresso bar. All the gentlemen at the bar were pleasant to chat with. The espresso tasted great. It’s roasted in house and the quality of the espresso machine makes the 5 star quality beverage. True Italian experience.“

“While visiting the city that I grew up in there has always been an abundance of restaurants to eat, look no further than Mabu Kitchen. The atmosphere of this cozy cornerstone in washing square will have you taste buds going wild. The burgers are a cooked exceptionally well with a fluffy pillow of a seeded bun…..it’s mouth watering. Then on the side, of course they have fries but the salads they provided were also a timeless palate refresher between burger bites. Highly recommend, the staff are very attentive, kind, and welcoming. It all ties in with the atmosphere of the place. They take attention to detail seriously and it shows in the way their food is cooked, plated, and served. Well done Mabu Kitchen, I’ll be seeing you for brunch as well.“

“Food was delicious! Good vibe!“

“Food was delicious and staff was friendly“

“We got there for an early dinner Saturday afternoon and immediately got a table. We put orders in and we’re fast served. The food was very delicious and well done. Good presentation, the server was very professional, ambient was clean and a pleasant music in the back. Good location on Drexel Campus. Easy to park on the streets.“

“Everyone loved every bite! One of my favorite brunch places in and around the city. Awesome food, and attentive service! #lEtsreAlesTate“

“Hidden Gem! The staff- so delightful. Went for the first time and was guided by a magical lady who guided us on how to order. The food- QUALITY. The tacos are stuffed! Prices seem high but when you get the goods, it all makes sense. The two of use ordered a variety of tacos (6) and took two home with us because we were stuffed. Don’t pass on the aqua Fresca or cookies. Happy to have this style of tacos in south Philly. Thanks 💜Taco!“

“Just landed after midnight. Got to my place i am staying tonight. Wanted a drink and googled this place. Good vibes.

And my espresso martini was good. Nick the bartender was awesome and welcoming. First time in Philly for my bday week I'm impressed. Will be a regular here the next five days lol“

“The food was wonderful as the service was fast. I couldn’t believe the check. Extremely reasonable for all you get. I’d definitely recommend Kanella to anyone“

“Great coffees and super friendly owner/ baristas!“

“Great covered outdoor patio along with tasty food - perfect combination.“

“Highly recommend Dizengoff if you’re in Philly and craving authentic Middle Eastern flavors. This cozy spot, from chef Michael Solomonov delivers Israeli street food vibes with serious flavor. The Lamb Köfte wrap was amazing! 🌯 Fresh lamb meatballs, chopped Salad, Sumac Onions, Tehina, Israeli pickel, hot pepper, wrapped in pita Isralie Breakfast also a MUST try! Za’atar Omelette, Labneh, Schug, Olives, Chopped Salad, Pita Our table shared an unbelievably smooth and rich plate of Hummus Yerushalmi 🥙 Beef, Baharat, Pine Nuts, Parsley, served warm with pillowy, freshly baked pita that’s worth the trip alone. The atmosphere is casual and energetic, with friendly staff who are happy to explain the menu. WOULD LOVE TO SEE THIS CONCEPT IN BALTIMORE! 🇮🇱 ממש טעים“

“Victory Brewing Company in Philly is hands-down one of the best brewery stops I’ve made in a while. The space is awesome, the beer is next-level, and the staff? Let’s just say they seriously bring the place to life.

Shout-out to Paige behind the bar—super cool, funny, and yeah… HOT! She made the whole experience even better with great energy and solid beer recs. Total rockstar.

Speaking of beer, Kelly’s Hero was the standout for me—not just because it’s delicious, but because the proceeds go toward ALS research. That kind of purpose behind a pint makes it even more worth drinking. Love to see a place mixing great beer with a great cause.

Already planning my next visit!“

“Very tasty food and very personable owner. You need to try the falafel and also the Fava beans. I would go back again in a heartbeat.“

“What a charming little cafe with such wonderful staff! I had the pleasure of chatting with one of the owners, who was just delightful and really took an interest in her customers. It truly adds a special touch! ✨

I popped in to grab some brunch for my mom and me since we’re staying at an Airbnb and wanted something a bit more satisfying than what we've been eating.

Cafe Tolia was just what we needed! I went for a breakfast sandwich with egg and roasted peppers, while my mom enjoyed the Maple Honey Sandwhich and couldn’t stop raving about it—she actually asked me why I didn’t grab another one for later! The coffee was hot and delicious, complete with fresh cream. And oh my goodness, the BOMBOLINI was absolutely amazing! I savored every single bite and definitely need to get another one before I leave town. The Chocolate Croissant was equally scrumptious!

Such nice people, a lovely atmosphere, and tasty food—what more could you ask for? 💖“

“Amazing food and service. Not a bad place to catch a game.“

“We just love our new family restaurant! We get treated like family everytime we go!!!! The atmosphere is so cozy and the staff is exceptional. And let's talk about the food - it's absolutely to die for! The portions during happy hour are perfect and the prices are so reasonable.

But the best part? Let me introduce you to DAVID! He's the star of the show - always attentive, funny, and he makes drinks like a true master! Whenever I go, I insist on being seated with David.

They made our anniversary so special and they truly care about their guests' experience. We feel so lucky to have this gem in the neighborhood. I'd travel far and wide for this level of excellence!

Oh, and I can't forget to mention my favorites: The Good Good Things drink, the Buffalo wings during happy hour, and the amazing cheesesteak! And my kids absolutely love the huge, deep dish, extra cheesy pizza.

We're off to our reservation with David - can't wait! If you go, make sure to say hi to him and tell him Mink sent you!

Almost forgot the fresh house made potato chips!!!! So so so good!!! Don't skip them!

Kid-friendliness: Always awesome and patient with my kids!“

“Yards represents a great story of a local business that does well enough to expand and grow. The location offers a great variety of food as well as the iconic brews they're known for, in an open, though sometimes loud, environment. Parking options aren't great if you're not walking or Ubering, but it's the city so that's to be expected. That said, I was so happy when they took over this former commercial space and transformed it a few years ago and demonstrates how successful their brand has become and not just in the Philadelphia area!“

“I had the bahn mi hoagie and it was one of the best that I’ve had anywhere.The sauce that the tofu was cooked in made this meal remarkably…And it had a lot of the usual veggies in it as well….The in-house menu listed vegetarian and vegan options right below the regular options for each menu section…easy to find.“

“Love the breakfast basket!“

“Fantastic food. Great spot. Would recommend to anyone.“

“We hosted the rehearsal dinner for our wedding here in September 2024. We had about 50 people and were able to rent out the entire indoor space. The owner and staff were very welcoming and accommodating with our menu and bar options. Planning with them was a breeze. We were very happy with the food. We actually had a difficult time hitting the minimum at the end of the night! We highly recommend hosting your private party at Chestnut Hill Brewing!“

“Wow what a great place! Great atmosphere, good food & the best beer on tap!! Highly recommended!“

“Tried Asad’s in Pottstown for the first time today. The slider was great and that Asad’s sauce, wow!!! Whatever you guys are doing keep it up!“

“This is maybe one of my favorite coffee shops anywhere. First of all, the space is just too awesome, exactly what I think of when I think of a coffee shop. Love the open windows, small and simple menu, and the total vibe. Wish I had this close by but live to visit when in Philly! If you’re looking for great coffee in an awesome space, stop here!“

“The food and the service are excellent. I recommend the Sausage Rolls, however everything I have had is good.“

“Best coffee shop in Philly!! A must-stop when in the city.“

“This place is great! A wonderful place to let your dog socialize, as well as yourself. And if you don’t have a dog , come for the food, it’s all very delicious! 5 Stars“

“Inventive, incredibly delicious cuisine. Can’t wait to go back and try more.“

“The lemon chicken tagine is to die for, and the macaroons are so delightful and flavorful. Soufiane catered for a small gathering and the food, presentation and service was excellent. I can't wait to visit the Cafe in person! Congratulations on your opening!!“

“We love Herman’s Coffee both as a business and a customer. They have good coffee and a great environment to start your day!!! +love their collaborations with small businesses 🤩“

“I don’t think you could ever go here and not be satisfied. The ice cream is AMAZING, the selection is extensive and they are some of the nicest people working in customer service.
You know you’re going to want some later, so always order a pint to go!“

“Beautiful lounge with cool vibe!!“

“Just a regular old tavern with good food and brews“

“Attic brought us in to play their St. Pat's show, and man - the place is awesome!! Great food trucks outside, awesome beer, kind, fun, friendly people and ... obviously, killer (and handsome, we might add) entertainment. Sláinte, Attic, we'll be back!“

“We ate outside at Parc mid-afternoon today to celebrate our 61st anniversary with our family, including our granddog. Our meal was luscious throughout, though we were too full for dessert❣️I must say, the highlight for me was the tomato tart, which was delicate but hearty, and totally scrumptious. Thanks for a wonderful meal, and as always, we look forward to our next visit.“
