33 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Norfolk

“I absolutely recommend this place! Their food is somehow better than their coffee and their coffee is immaculate! I ordered the K BBQ grilled cheese and the char was just a hair more than I’d traditionally prefer but that didn’t affect the flavor in the least bit. Despite the flaw, the sandwich was a 10! Don’t get me started on this amazing atmosphere. In an environment as rich in local coffee shops and K BBQ I’ll absolutely be coming back here. They’ve managed to make a returning customer effortlessly! 10/10 recommend!“

“Great time . Big place where you can sit and talk while eating. Great tasting food and attentive servers and staff“

“Stopped in the Town Center VA beach location on my way back home from being here out of town. The food was fantastic and the service was top notch! Highly recommend stopping by to eat here. I had the brunch crepe for breakfast and the French press coffee…both of them were amazing!“

“This place was great! The coffee was good, and we were allowed to bring our dogs inside the building, even though they were not serviced Dogs, which was refreshing. We were able to sit at a table and they were able to relax right next to us. The people there are very animal friendly. The service was good and we will definitely plan to go back.“

“Omg best relax chill spot reminding you of the show “Friends” I had iced latte and bac egg cheese bagel sammich omg to die for!!! Staff was incredibly sweet and helpful this will be my go to spot before my Monday Wednesday class at TCC!!!“

“Good smoothie and was made relatively quickly. First time coming here and definitely will be back.“

“Absolutely one of my favorites… their specialty lattes are the best!!“

“Great food, great service“

“We squeaked in just in time for a couple happy hour orders! We enjoyed both the dumplings and meatballs from the small plates menu. Then ordered sandwiches for dinner. The food was great & service was nice. The ambience was amazing, we sat by these big bay windows & it was perfect. The food was great! The other entrees look amazing as well but we're significantly more money, so we stuck with the sandwiches and we're happy! Definitely a great date night or happy hour spot!“

“I was incredibly impressed with this restaurant. The food was delicious, the drinks were great, and the staff was exceptional. The location is perfect, making it an ideal spot to visit with friends or family. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and highly recommend it for lunch. It's definitely a top choice for a midday meal, and I would gladly return.“

“(I received an email stating they had extended the Garden of Lights and that they offer a mobility shuttle on value nights. )This was a perfect opportunity to enjoy some lights with my husband, and bring another family member who otherwise wouldn't have been able to walk the entire route. The mobility shuttle is included in the price of admission, however one must contact the office to make reservations. They have a limited number of seats on the tram and will assign you a row ( each row has four seats).We had to arrive between 4:30-4:45pm to check in at the visitor center. The tram left at 5pm to tour the entire route of the lights at a good leisurely pace. It took roughly 30 minutes to complete the route. Since it wasn't completely dark when we started the tour of lights, the first half/three fourths weren't as magical and twinkly & sparkly as i'm sure it looks when it's completely dark and the lights illuminate with such fervor and vibrancy.We did enjoy the lights and they are a beautiful, mystical electrical sight, however we weren't able to witness it's full spectacular until the last part of the tour. It would have been a 5 star experience had they started the tram later for better visibility of the holiday lights. I'm guessing several reasons the tram starts right when the lights open are due to high foot traffic during open hours which isn't conducive for a tram to navigate,the other being for everyone's safety. Maybe the idea of starting much later would present additional safety and challenge issues with loading/unloading people on the tram due to lower visibility. If logistically and economically possible, maybe next winter season they can push the opening time a little later to accommodate for sundown and have portable floodlights surrounding the tram area for loading and unloading if those are partly the reasons? If at all?I think it's wonderful they strive to be all encompassing, as everyone should be able to enjoy the outdoors, especially without having to be concerned about navigating the logistics of a desired activity/event. Staff were safe, expeditious, efficient and friendly! Make sure to dress according to the weather, it's an open tram. We made sure we had hats, layers on, including long johns. That night was so frigid and even being bundled up I could still feel the cold creeping through. When we visited, we arrived early prior to check in & loading. It would have been helpful or appreciated if staff had offered /suggested to visitors the food vendor availability & location information to utilize that wait time for us to grab some hot drinks and snacks. We didn't see the food vendors until everyone went outside to load. Nor did anyone else. My husband was a tad irritated that he didn't know he had an option to get some drinks & snacks from Bear house coffee, duck donuts and another vendor prior.“

“This place has a flavor for everybody. So yummy and refreshing. I had the pumpkin spice. Will be back.“

“I don’t think I can say enough good things about the staff, or the food at the VA beach location. We wanted to try something new and now it’s our favorite! The food couldn’t have been more fresh and the flavors were vibrant and inviting! My kids devoured their bowls and the falafel too! Finishing it off with baklava was the perfect way to end our lunch! We can’t wait to go back!“

“Coffee was yummy. Service was friendly. The cafe itself seemed pretty empty with not a lot of seating. Good for a "to-go" coffee. I got an iced dirty chai latte with almond milk. Yes, they have milk alternatives for my dairy free girlies - almond & oat .“

“such an amazing and adorable cat cafe! there are so many cats and they are very active, most love playing with toys and some just petted. super well maintained and clean plus the decorations are all cat themed! really great pricing too compared to other cat cafes and i would definitely come “

“I always have a good experience here but I just recently went and took one of my friends for the first time and she was asking the employee JD all these questions about the drinks and he was very helpful and friendly! Very great employee! Awesome drinks made by him too!“

“No brewery in the area has given me a more welcoming and relaxing atmosphere. Sitting on porch watching the sunset, or at a table in the corner reading a book. The servers are friendly and always quick on the taps; and CPO IPA has been my 4-pack to go for every trip or party for the last 2 years. Grab some Bar-Q while you’re at it.“

“I love the atmosphere at Coasters coffee . I always enjoy my time there and appreciate the baristas recommendations as well.“

“Great experience my wife and I had. Would highly recommend. Great staff very professional! 5⭐️“

“My husband and I hosted our co-ed baby shower and rented the warehouse space for a couple hours. The service was 10/10 fantastic - from the event planning to the bartender services, it was so chill, professional, and great! I will say, to rent the space, i felt like it was initially a little pricey ($350 for the whole warehouse + a bar minimum) but I will admit, the space is huge! We had about 40+ guests attend, and we probably could have fit another 60+ comfortably. We really enjoyed the aspect of being able to bring in our own catered food and non-alcoholic drinks (for the kiddos and for me as the preggo!). Everything was fantastic - I was worried how private it would feel since normally that space would be open to the public, but it was great!“

“Went there on Saturday afternoon and the service from the bartender could not have been better! He was so nice and accommodating and made some great recommendations. Will definitely go back!“

“Delicious food made with love and served with it too! Dog friendly place to grab a sub and a beer with outside seating available.“

“Awesome, friendly and unique brewery and coffee bar!“

“Great place to have a great beer.“

“Food was delicious cute little place. But very expensive for the amount of food you get I paid about $60 for my 3 items which was a bread pudding with two pieces of bacon and ice cream, quiche and salad, and a toast with salmon that I ordered to go. Not big portions for it to cost so much but it was good.“

“What can I say except Streat’s never disappoints!! From the food to the atmosphere and the employees, it is always such an enjoyable night out when I go to Streat’s. The food, WOW! I don’t know how they pack so much flavor into their dishes but my taste buds salute them for doing it!“

“these donuts are so good! My kids loved watching the worker create each one individually with the toppings. 10/10 recommend“

“Great beer and pizza ! Beautiful place. Friendly staff !“

“This place is great. Is small inside and the wind rips thru it on the outside but the beer is good and the people are nice. I make it a point to come here for their super tasty sours. The rivits on the chairs outside will rip your hair out, that's like the only bad thing.“

“Great folks, great beer, and a nice mix of dog-friendly indoor and outdoor spaces. Well done, Reaver“

“Great beer and pizza ! Beautiful place. Friendly staff !“

“Excellent. Homemade challah bread! Go get you some. Good variety and many vegan options. Staff is friendly and helpful. 10 out of 10!“

“I ate here for the first time, nice atmosphere, a little cramped maybe, but that doesn't take away from the rest. They rock it. Staff were nice, helpful, and just overall enjoyable. The food portions were good and the food was hot and tasty all for decent prices! Will be back next time I'm in the area!“
