    Be Aware

    This place is not dog friendly. They are dog tolerant. Your pup must remain on the ground. You are not allowed to feed your dog any food from the table so if you’re expecting to give your pup some of your French fries, be prepared for a scolding.

    Dog Seating Limited

    I've eaten here multiple times and the staff are always nice and friendly to me and my dog. Food is fantastic. Only complaint is they only let you sit with your dog at the tables next to the sidewalk even though they have many more outdoor tables. Don't understand that.

    Could Be More Dog Friendly

    We love this place for the fantastic food, and they used to be very dog friendly so we were there a lot and spent a lot of money. But something changed within the last year or so and they instituted all these rules like dogs could only sit at tables by sidewalk (what if it’s raining???) and they cannot sit in your lap (which my tiny chihuahua always does) and so now we go much less because we want to eat some place truly dog friendly. I wish the owners would reconsider their rules because we do miss going more often.

    Not doggie welcoming.

    Our waiter brought a bowl of water right away for my dog; that was the only nice thing he did. His attitude from the beginning was annoyance. My family has eaten at Hollerbach's many, many times but I won't return with my dog (if I return at all).

    Great German Food and Patio!

    Fantastic German Food - some of the best in the country! Great drink/beer/wine/schnapps from Germany! Patio was great for Allie, and server came right out with a bowl of water for her when she came out to introduce herself! Great service! Showed up about 5pm on a weekend which was perfect. Starts getting a bit too busy on the patio after 6-6:30 on the weekends...wouldn't want to have a dog on patio when it's crowded.
