50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Richmond

“Had breakfast here and ordered the salmon and egg, it came with a crispy latke, labneh, and a perfectly jammy egg. The flavors were such a good balance and worked really well together. We sat outside on the patio with our dog, which made it even better. The food came out quickly and everyone was genuinely kind. I’d definitely come back.“

“I had the pastrami and it was DELICIOUS! The potato salad was slapping too! Oh, and the sweet tea 🙌“

“We rented a Yurt and Sherif was an amazing and down to earth server! He checked on us and vibed. The company was accommodating and helpful. Absolutely loved my experience and will 10/10 recommend!“

“What a wonderful space. Great wine, great service, wonderful food. Best steak and potato’s I’ve had in a long time. The charcuterie board, breads, dips and salad were great as well. Lamb ragu, mussels, all were great. But the stand out was the duck. I’m not a fan of duck, but theirs is divine. I would go back there only for the duck even. Great meal.“

“Great experience last night. The food was amazing and the service was friendly. My ribeye was perfectly cooked and seasoned. Pork belly was on point.“

“Super friendly and fast service!! Our first visit and staff was very helpful!“

“Every time we are in Richmond, my husband ensures that we stop by to grab a meal. EACH AND EVERY TIME!!!!! Great food and I absolutely LOVE the desserts.“

“I'm addicted and can't wait to hopefully have more tomorrow 😋❤️ All the food was so flavorful and the presentation is amazing.“

“My pop came through town about two weeks ago. He said he wanted to grab lunch. I work nearby, and knew he loves a good burger. I was concerned because my mother (who loves cooking, loves learning new recipes, but has her classics and go-to’s, makes his burgers) would never hear the end of it, if the meal was awesome. Well. I was right. So my mom and my pops came to town and wanted to have dinner, with me and my partner. After politely asking us recommendations and subtly dodging each place my partner and I mentioned. My mom asks, “Where did you take Daddy for lunch?” We ended up hanging out and chatting while the staff started to close up. Great food. Every time. Great fast friendly service. Every time. Need a restaurant that your parents like to get them to visit? (Probably not) but THANK YOU, EAZZY BURGER!“

“Best birria egg rolls in Richmond Virginia, food was exceptional 💯💯🫶🏾🫶🏾“

“Love it. Great food and fun people. I highly suggest. Even my own magic bunny (Conejo) loves the food here.“

“The food truck outside was superb. Food was beyond of this world“

“We got the reaper chicken and JACLYN was the BEST server of all time. She was there for me at my lowest and with me at my highest. Jaclyn I will never forget you and your outstanding service. I WILL be coming back just for Jaclyn to be my waitress again. If I could give anyone 10 stars it would be Jaclyn.“

“We had two of the specials tonight - lamb stew and salmon. Delicious and bountiful meals and wonderful desserts (as always).“

“I've been coming here for about 6 or 7 years but never left a recommendation until now. I've been away for months but when I walked in the door all the servers who know me greeted me by name. Just warms my heart! ❤️ The food is great! Breakfast is my favorite because my eggs are always perfect to order whether poached or scrambled soft with cheese 😋 Nicki makes the best half/half tea with lemons 😉 But better than the food, I come for the service! These ladies (and occasionally a gentleman) make me feel so welcome and right at home! I love you all! 🥰“

“They have a fantastic, fresh, and interesting menu. The service is excellent without being too "stuffy." Henley on Grace is a perfect choice for a special afternoon or evening out.“

“My wife and I thought the waffles were delicious. I had the strawberry waffle, and she had the vegetarian waffle with egg. It’s definitely not fast food, but it’s a fun, funky place to go for a hot waffle. They also had a great playlist. Definitely recommend.“

“This place checked almost all my boxes for brunch spots;a variety of Benny's, specialty cocktails especially ones with flowers, moonshine, and sparkling, chicken and waffles, biscuits and gravy; stuffed French toast, and avocado toast. Ambiance was great; the building is an old school movie theatre. Both the food and service we're amazing; Jessica was handling her business!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We finally made it to SB’s Love Shack and WOW — what an absolute gem. It’s a smaller café, so when it’s cold there can be a short wait and limited indoor seating (no reservations), but it totally makes sense for the size. When the weather’s warm, they have a large patio. They’re open 9–2, and the staff was so warm and welcoming from the moment we walked in. The décor is super unique with a total RVA vibe. The food was unreal. I had the Glitter on a Mattress (Texas toast with bacon & sausage gravy, a side of bacon, and edible glitter ✨) and it was SO good — and huge. We also tried the French toast with flavored fruit cream and a breakfast sandwich, and everything was amazing. Parking is limited in the front, but there’s plenty around the back and an easy walk-up through a covered patio area. Great food, great service, fun atmosphere. Highly recommend — can’t wait to go back. 💕🍳✨“

“On 08/03/2022, my wife and I brought our cousins here to celebrate their 50th anniversary. The food and service was excellent. Our waiter was Sean. HOWEVER, during the reservation process, I was asked at least twice if there was a celebration and if so what type. I indicated on both occasions that it was a anniversary. I just assumed that when I was asked about the occasion that this occasion would somehow be acknowledged. It wasn't. (Happy anniversary). I heard the waiter at the table next to ours wish the celebrants a happy anniversary. Also, based on other reviews on this site, I noticed that a dessert was given to the celebrants as a memento. Not to our party. As I said, the service and food were excellent but missing the little "happy anniversary" left me and my wife feeling a little empty.“

“Last Saturday morning, we had an ordering issue error which was caused by our teen. I spoke to the manager (if I remember correctly, her name was Faith) and she could not have been any nicer or more professional in straightening out our problem. Crumbl is lucky to have such a pleasant person working for them, and taking the time to help me out....
And the cookies are delicious as well (especially the raspberry one!} :0)“

“Adorable bakery, lovely location in Church Hill! I’m so happy they’ve had the resilience to get up and running again since the fire. The pastries are unique, varied, and delicious with a fantastic texture to each. I certainly recommend ordering two days ahead if you know your plans!“

“Someone showed me this spot freshman year and whenever I crave boba when I'm back in the city, trust that I'll come here. T.T Lounge has been here for more than 20 years and it makes a lot of sense because the owner is honest and hardworking.

He cooks the boba the old fashioned way- so it's not precooked and hard like other chains. And the banana milk tea has actual fresh mashed banana in it and not some cheap flavored syrup. This isn't some trendy, hype shop, it's a long running community staple that I hope to see other students continue support for years to come ❤️“

“amazing bread and quality. I've bought laofs meant for the week and haven't seen Wednesday because they are so good it's hard not to work into a meal. fluffy light and perfectly baked!“

“We love their commitment to great food, their spirit of innovation, and the many gluten-free options they offer!“

“Excellent stop for our lunch. Brisket was incredible. Creamy max & cheese was delicious. Will definitely stop again!“

“Ice cream was so creamy. It was probably the best ice cream I’ve ever had.“

“This place has a great atmosphere and the staff is wonderful. We were just driving through Richmond and decided to stop here for a bite. My husband had the brisket sandwich which he said was fantastic. I had the trainwrek that was so large and outstanding I couldn’t finish it and have leftovers. The food is fresh and has exquisite flavor! If I’m ever in Richmond again I will be returning.“

“Will be so sad to be leaving this area, as my Friday night walk to Cochiloco has always been a highlight of my week. At this point, I’ve tried and enjoyed just about everything on the menu. The Sonora Taco is INCREDIBLE and my go-to is the Cochiloco burrito (really good portion for that one). The red and green sauces are both incredible and I’ve dipped most every menu item in both of them; you can’t go wrong at Cochiloco.“

“Please like our new Facebook page to stay updated with specials throughout the week. Taste of India RVA“

“We come to Shagbark when we visit our kids here in Richmond. Everything is always delicious and the service is wonderful.“

“unique, delicious and reasonably priced. once I get a craving I have to go. I love this place.“

“This place is amazing. Last week, I ordered one of their bowls and took home ramen for my husband. He loved it so much that we went back this weekend. Even the kids ate the food (manic and cheese and plain ramen noodles), which almost never happens. The staff was super accommodating with our requests to adjust the order for the kiddos. We also loved the patio and ate outside while it rained, so that was cool too. Two thumbs up from us 👍👍😊“

“This place is one you have to order out, but when I tell you the pizza is delicious, I mean it. To me, it is honestly one of the best (if not THE best) pizzeria in Richmond. The ingredients are fresh and the red sauce is perfection.

My only critique would be for a crispier crust, but that's just me. I have ordered their Greek pizza and have had both my aunt and grandmother try it and both agreed it was one of the best slices they've had since moving down here from NY (hence why I like a crispier crust, lol).

Tonight, I customized my pizza the way I would if I was at Blaze and it did not disappoint.“

“This place is awesome! Great service, great food. My go-to every time I’m in Richmond.“

“Lovely place, lovely people, and lovely tea of course 💕.“

“In the words of my 11 year-old nephew: " If this is how British people eat everyday, then they must be in heaven." Out of the mouth of babes. All In all i am very happy. Fish was tasty and crisp. Chips were perfect. Mushy peas were great. and the sticky toffee pudding was everything I have been searching for. 5 stars“

“Hoy por primera vez desayuné en este local. Fui en compañía de dos amigas y el servicio fué excelente. Todo el staff fué muy amable, el local estaba muy limpio, la comida es exquisita y los precios muy accesibles. Espero tener la oportunidad de regresar nuevamente.“

“Loved it! Perfect atmosphere and drinks for families with kids“

“Great local coffee house with tasty food options. I’m always in the mood for all-day breakfast items when I’m on a work trip, so I tried the pork sausage, egg and cheese on sourdough toast, and a delicious latte. Food and coffee were outstanding. It’s obvious the staff puts care in the prep of every sandwich. The toast was toasted perfectly with the right amount of crunch, eggs were lightly seasoned with pepper before whisking, and the cheese was nice and “melty”. Get your order “for here” , and Chill to the beats of new and old school jams while you enjoy this little local gem.“

“Love the burgers, great restaurant! Just wondering what’s up with pick up orders. Haven’t been able to get ahold of anyone the past two days.“

“Always a pleasure to visit Millie’s! One of our favorites!“

“Really good selection of stouts. Comfortable atmosphere.“

“First time eating at First Watch and it was a great lunch.“

“After reading the reviews I decided to just get the chicken and biscuits. The drive thru line was around the corner! I went in and walked out less than 5 minutes with my order. Pro-tip, it’s not a lot of people inside and two cashiers. Chicken was delicious with the biscuits, hot and fresh!“

“I had them do 24 cupcakes for my Mom’s 75th birthday and they not only looked amazing, they tasted amazing! I got so many compliments on how good they were and I definitely pointed them to Smallcakes!“

“We had such a great time at trivia night at Väsen. The questions were actually fun and well thought out, probably some of the best trivia we’ve played in terms of variety and challenge. This spot is also my husband’s favorite for non-alcoholic options, which means a lot since he doesn’t drink. It’s one of the few places where he still feels totally included in the vibe while we’re out having fun. Great beer and great energy.“

“Love this place! The staff is so welcoming and top notch, the atmosphere is cozy, beer is great, and there’s always something fun going on like trivia, food trucks, quesadilla place next door that will deliver your food there, live blue grass, the farmers market in the parking lot. Shout out to staff Jose and Jack! They are the best!“

“When a menu has both Thai and British fare, try both! Second time in with my wife and the food is fantastic. The restaurant is clean and the service is great. We had the pad Thai and fish and chips with the haddock. Best F&C I've had. The fish was cooked perfectly, the batter was light and crisp. The pad Thai was top notch as well. My wife likes it so much we are taking my mother-in-law back when she visits from Michigan.“
