    Excellent!

    They have a variety of food selection and great salads and killer tacos! Our dog had a plate of chicken and just love it! The outdoor seating is plenty and sunny too in the winter months. We are definitely coming back!

    Treat your pup

    Very dog friendly. They have a menu for your dog so they can get a treat, too. My quesadilla was delicious and my pup enjoyed the chicken. The only drawback is the list of what's on tap is only on a board inside - they have no printed copies. Since you can't take your dog inside, if you are by yourself you can't see the list of what's on tap and the server was not helpful at all with that.

    Perfect for a lunch

    This restaurant has a large patio with many tables in the shade. Our server brought Macy a big bowl of water and gave her lots of TLC. We enjoyed a glass of wine and a local beer plus a brisket sandwich and a southwest chicken quesadilla. We would go back again!

    Nice shaded outdoor tables

    We found this place on BF after having been to the one in Chattanooga (also found on BF). Once again, the food and service were great.

    Great food and environment.

    Great food and environment, located in a small town near a lot of small chops and cafes, some which also are pet friendly.

    Ideal stop

    Universal Joint was perfect for lunch during our day trip in Rabun County. Ash was welcomed and we enjoyed our stop. Fish tacos were delicious.

    Really Good Food!

    They love dogs here. They bring bowls of water and a doggie menu to get something for your pooch. Bacon, hummus, burgers, chicken and ice cream are all dog options. Our girl loved her hummus and was perfectly happy on their sunny patio

    perfect

    On vacation in the mountains, always bring our dogs along. We are also vegan so finding a place that is both dog friendly and having vegan options can be difficult. Here we found both. Friendly wait staff brought bowls of water for Lexi and Bentley. And the black bean burgers were the best!!!
