14 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Staunton

“This place is superb. I have never had a bad meal here & I’ve had my fair share. The sweet potato & black bean is always my go to, the way they dice the sweet potatoes is 10/10 in my book. The staff are always friendly but Katie is always the standout. She’s so attentive and always has a smile on her face and is warm & welcoming. Please please please start a rewards program!! 🤞🏼“

“Just finished a great lunch here. We settled in outside, Calvin took our order and shortly brought it to the table. A warm summer drizzle added to the ambiance under the wide table umbrella. After the second bite, the torrent hit and Calvin appeared to hustle us and our meals indoors to dryer accomodations. Thank you, Calvin for great service!!! And the chef is appreciated too as the food was first rate.“

“EXCELLENT sandwiches and services! This was our first time visiting and could not have been more impressed with this restaurant. My husband, who is incredibly picky and hates trying new things loved his Italian sandwich so much he got one to go. Our server was able to suggest a wine that was also delicious. Will definitely be going back!!“

“Our first time here and it was wonderful! Staff was very attentive and the food was awesome. We will definitely be back!“

“I woke up this morning with a craving for chili dogs that could not be ignored. Sam's Hot Dogs was recommended to me by multiple community members. I patiently waited until 11 and then made my way there. It's a cute old school looking hot dog stand with drive thru service and a small inside with a few tables. Exactly the type of vibe I was looking for. The owner was there dishing out dogs and they did not disappoint. I got 3 loaded chili cheese dogs and a drink for under 10 bucks. They were delicious and the spicy chili was on point. You better believe the next time I'm craving a top flight chili dog, this will be where I go.“

“I was skeptical, considering this is a seafood restaurant hundreds of miles from the coast. As a homegrown girl from Delmarva, I was pleasantly surprised. Flavors were balanced and not drowning in Old Bay. One of the best crab dips I've had in a while! It was slightly aggravating getting seated, as nothing was announced prior of a big party and no reservations were taken. If we're in the area again, will definitely be stopping again!“

“I absolutely loved this place! Great selection of original hand crafted brews. You absolutely must have a flight (or share a couple of flights among friends) to experience the variety they have.

The barkeep was friendly and knowledgeable. The warehouse space had a lot of ambiance with hand painted murals on the walls.

My favorites from this visit oct 2025:

I love the area, the history and the museums, but I’ll return just to visit Redbeard Brewing. Loved every single brew I tried. The brew meister(s) are true artisans.“
