    Couldn’t eat with the dogs

    Only place you can eat with the dogs is at the bar, where there are only 12 high seats and no where for dogs to lay. Patio is beautiful, but can’t have food there. Going down the street to look for a place to eat with the boys.

    Great, Relaxing Atmosphere

    We went during the day, sat in the deck with our two pups and enjoyed some drinks looking out at the water. Dogs had shade under an umbrella and provided water.

    Not dog friendly

    You’re only allowed to eat at the bar with a dog where people are on top of each other. There were so many tables on the deck but no, if you have a dog you cannot sit at those tables.
    Very disappointing. People take their time at the bar and it’s annoying to wait for someone to leave.

    Awesome

    Mr. Twister had a blast on the dog beach , then lunch at the afterdeck was great. The bartender was so sweet and he even had water bowl ready for Mr. Twister. Great food and drinks and wonderful treatment of pet.. will be back.

    nice relief from the beach

    We can't speak to those concerns about dinner hours. We went twice on our vacation. Both times after taking our dog to the dog beach next door. They don't do food service at the deck tables, but you can eat at the bar and your dog is welcome both on the deck and at the bar. There were other dogs present when we went and one of them had an accident (too much sea water). It was quite messy and the bar staff were reassuring and cleaned up the mess with no fuss (and it was a mess). That impressed me into giving them the 4 bones.

    Selective Memory about Pets

    Call ahead, host told us pets are not allowed at bar during dinner. Too bad the deck was empty then and they could have used the business.

    bad hours

    they say you can bring your dog here, but not from 5pm to 10pm. And they do not serve food on the deck. boooooo

    Eh.

    Drinks were good, view great but no food or offer to bring out some water for the dog. (Go to Salute! by Higgs Beach - super dog friendly!Talked to one of the managers and hope they will reconsider as it really is a beautiful spot. The dog beach adjacent to them is minuscule but it does offer access for the pooches to go out for a swim.
